Don't chase them?
Yes, but then they get out an xbow/throwing weapon and hurt my feelings :(

Sometimes you need to chase the backpedaller too (shorter weapon), I have seen many players abuse S-walk to gain easy kills. A person of note (whose name I will not mention) in Shogunate armour commonly does well through backwalk+spam with LHB, rarely does he need to block or feint. cRPG is meant to be a more skill based mod than native, which it is between classes, but for melee the rule goes as player A stacks strength and gets long weapon, backwalks, spams and wins. cRPG melee should not allow for this kind of play, even some of the (self-proclaimed) "best" duelists in cRPG abuse this broken mechanic. Hence why I actually find native melee more balanced than cRPG (also because it's faster and more deadly so mistakes are more severely punished).

If you're stupid enough to chase after some agi build character then you only have yourself to blame when they fuck you.

Nerf thouse agi whores :) a bit decrease runback speed, plz!
I tolking about thouse guys who hold S button all the time and spaming LMC coz no 1 can reach them.

Don't worry everyone! I know how to translate Retarded. What he's trying to say is: "Please nerf anything that my playstyle/build cannot counter, for it is clearly OP."

If you are seriously having problems with backpeddaling, then the problem really exists between your keyboard and chair.

Some melee people have this ubercool style... They don't even backpedal but turn around and start running like archer with without a melee weapon. This is especially annoying in duelserver because I go there to fight and learn stuff, not to run around the map after some noob who is too scared to block and thinks his sudden turn slash will work on me. It wont because Son Of Odin dont chase...

If there is one playstyle I hate, it must be as I described above. Still, I don't see why to nerf backpedaling. It works only if you chase the fucker. He cant backpedal and hit you if you dont move forward. If someone keeps doing it in the duelserver, just cancel the duel or don't duel them in the first place... You still should be able to have range control which is done by both "s" and "w" keys. That would be too hard if backpedaling is nerfed. It is not lame, as we all know.

YEAH NERF THOSE SMELLY BACKPEDALING FASCIST einstein SUPPORTERS.
THOSE chocolate chip cookieS.

OFF WITH THEIR HEADS.

Haven't read anyone else's comments, but this thread is right up there with "can we have a archer only server."

You want people to suffer by not being able to use footwork to outdistance you? Just because you're a str crutch who hasn't the first idea how to spec a build that has any degree of skill requirement doesn't mean others should suffer for your incompetence. This is a ridiculous thread.

Good day to you sir.

I SAY GOOD DAY.

Instead of lowering the speed of backpedaling make it take more time to reach full speed.

This way it won't be nerfed but made more reasonable.

That's like the opposite of what I would want, I want outranging to be viable, but constant s-walkers to be punished. This would affect the wrong people.

Actually no, I am an agi whore, I just don't like the excessive backpedal way of combat. The game should be won by superior feints and blocking skill more than that of how much you are able to hold your s-key.

But you shouldn't be able to start backpedalling fast instantly, you should start slowly then faster.

You also shouldn't be able to block a 2h great sword with a wooden stick, or recover after swinging a glaive as fast as with a 1h sword. The point is this game isn't balanced around realism because that would not be right for the mod, truth is what you suggest would also be the wrong thing for melee combat in this mod.
