there is a weapon that has a special feature, the basbal bat.it launches grenades far away.that makes it different than the baton.if hammer could break boxes or objects in general faster it would be more different than the wrench.they are preety simular.plus, it makes sense for a sledge hammer to brak things faster,that is its purpose

What advantage would breaking cover with melee attacks provide? That seems unnecessary, a change that won't benefit the weapon or the wielder at all.

Side note, the baseball bat is much longer than the baton.

You never know, the players I play with are creative and know how to utilize many features. And it makes sense, the weapons need more variety anyways.

I disagree; it's not all of the time, but once in a while a supply crate falls, an item flies away, you want get somewhere quick, etc: but there are crates in the way. Especially on maps like storage or similar settings. It wouldn't be extremely useful, but being able to break through cover with just a few swings could come in handy.

Hjarpe and have joked about the hammer that is should repair objects rather than destroy them (it's not a sledge hammer in SFD but rather a blacksmith hammer - at least that's how I always imagined it. Don't know what Hjarpe imagined when doing it.).
But the fire axe could perhaps break wooden objects in two or three hits but we don't think it's necessary right now.

i was thinking if the fire axe should break THIN wooden platforms placed verticaly or even horizontaly.i wanted to post that right after the main post but i forgot...sorry.Anyway,i say that becouse thin wooden platforms look like doors,but you find them in rare ecations, only in some custom maps (at least verticaly)
