Any word or picture of the so called new melee mechanics?  
All I saw so far was a classic whack over the head and a very underwhelming bayonet charge. Would be nice, if they expanded on the BF4 counter knife feature so you could have intense melee fights.

Almost like a mini-game where you have to press the right button in time.

Do you have a video on this? I wonder if its results in killing the original attacker, or does it just block?

We saw axes, shovels and bayonet charge (on the weapon) so far in the live stream (correct me if I am wrong). No counter to those attacks have been shown.

No, just an idea. It could be quite a bit of fun. As long as the people who are knifing do not become invincible to other gunfire. So that you can save your teammate.
