Cancel thrusting animations after turning a certain amount

I really dont think that back in the good ol' days pikemen spun around like tornados in full plate while accurately landing hits. Maybe give them the same restriction a lancer has in a term of how far they can turn before the animation cancels? Could also apply to any weapon really. I've just always seen it as a cheap method of abusing speed bonuses.

Same here. Something should be done to speed up the game so not everyone can block 20 hits in a row. But these "techniques" (actually glitches) should be removed. I'm talking about lolpiking, lolstabing, loloverhead and other so called "techniques" that lets us to kill people in cheapest ways possible.

this and:

Why not make a confirmation dialog: If you want to attack, every other player first has to accept the attack, then it is executed. Applies to all attacks of all players. Kinda roundbased combat zystem  8-)

Lolthrusting is a very wonky mechanic, but removing it basically dooms all the 2-direction weapons.


What about just slowing down the rotation speed to humanly possible levels ?

IMO make that certain amount 90 degrees, with it being more than 90 degrees onehand thrusting would be useless.

1H stab is the fastest, strongest and longest 1H animation. There's no reason NOT to use it in all instances. I don't know if it's OP, but it's boring. 1H used to be fun because you had a fast (left), long (right) and the most devastating attack (stab) and had to choose the best attack for each occasion.

What about a game where you can fight and land hits reliably without "abusing game mechanics"?

Stabs are crap, and need this turning around to not bounce off all the time.

I'm a crossbowman/1h hybrid atm. Pikes and long spears would still work quite well but the likes of long awlpike/halberd/bill would be pretty shit, especially the long awlpike.

Alright so what about a damage buff? I am not out to screw over polearm users, I just think the spinning and being able to hit someone who is right in front of you with a 300 length weapon is a tad absurd.

What about 2 meter, 360degree lul op 2h pikesword stabs then?

I am sure that's totally reasonable, and balanced.
