General Discussion / Is the melee gameplay staying like this?

« on: December 23, 2014, 11:28:21 pm »

Just wondering if this is the gameplay how the devs envision it? To me its all about dancing around, spamming, holding S key and endless ganking. Doesn't feel very deep or tactical

This is nothing to do with melee vs ranged vs cav balance

Can we expect something or is it unlikely at this point?

Game Balance Discussion / Is Melee a Class in cRPG?

« on: September 29, 2014, 09:44:24 pm »

Is Melee a class or is it rangeless/cavless Melee?

Time to give some incentives to play melee as an actual class rather than as castrated ranged/cav

Suggestions Corner / Overpriced Melee Weapons

« on: May 21, 2014, 12:39:07 pm »

There seem to be a lot of weapons that have randomly high price tags that don't represent any real advantage in their stats or usefulness.

All the poleaxes but especially Elegant Poleaxe - These have better stabs than normal axes but lose out on speed and swing damage. They are balanced with the other axes
1 handers over 8k should be a couple grand cheaper. The reach is nice but I feel they are balanced stat wise with the other swords. Except Arabian Cav Sword, maybe that just needs a nerf to damage
Flamberge - Nice right swing and damage but only the right swing is a 2 hand animation. Its balanced with other swords because of inferior pole animations and speed.
Great Long Axe - Either make Long Bardiche and Long Axe more expensive or make this cheaper. They are all balanced stat wise. Same with GLB
German/Danish - they aren't better than the cheaper great swords like Highland Claymore or even the Longsword

General Discussion / Heirloom Changes and the Market

« on: April 03, 2014, 04:36:04 pm »

How do you think things will change?

+3 items become worth 2 loompoints only since +2/+1 got more valuable
People might loom their armour/legs/head to +2 rather than sell their loom points and buy a +3.
We might get more items on the market so it becomes more of a trading market than trying to rip people off.
Loompoints will become cheaper because people don't need to loom to +3 but price will spike for next couple weeks because people want to make new stuff

Anyway its a good change imo, eventually I'll probably just have +2 armour and a load of +2 weapons

Game Balance Discussion / Donkey

« on: March 28, 2014, 05:36:52 pm »

Would it be possible to make this a useful item for players with 0 riding? ATM its more of a joke thing to troll/dick around with. Doesn't need to be OP, just at least able to be used to get into a couch position with lance maybe, that sort of speed and a bit more HP/armour

Suggestions Corner / Make Manual Blocking Harder

« on: February 25, 2014, 04:14:09 pm »

Fights wouldn't last so long if we tweaked blocking a bit. Not too much, just enough to shorten the fights a little. I'd propose:

More weapon stun when you block
Take out blocking left side attacks with the right block (and vice versa), or make the angles much narrower. Side blocks feel too easy

Suggestions Corner / Heraldic Tassel Spear

Seems like it would be relatively easy to make considering the other things that have been added. How about it?

Thank you please

General Discussion / Love for new Devs

Just want to say San, zagibu and Tydeus I think you are definitely doing a good job so far

Good attitudes on the forum and you listen to different sides and post without arrogance
Great new content from zagibu

Some things I might not agree with, but overall I appreciate what you do and the time you put in

Also thanks to cmp (for WSE2 update), chadz, Harald, anyone else involved etc (patch notes, strategus, Beer, hosting servers, website updates etc)

Just thought we should have a dev appreciation thread because I guess it is often a thankless task
