General Discussion / Discussion about server rules. Especially CS blocking and unreachable places.

« on: March 31, 2011, 06:21:40 pm »

http://forum.c-rpg.net/index.php/topic,3422.0.html

You can see, that I am not punished for it, tho Vargas called CS blocking lame and silly and he said that it is against rules.

But why? i know, blocking passageways is against rules, but wait: camping unreachable places is NOT against rules, until you are willing to jump off if you are last in your team.

Now, what is unreachable place in cRPG? It is place, where you can get only by ladder. And to camp there, you had to use ladder. But hey, now its reachable! So what are you going to do? Some people would just leave ladder in peace, but no, you destroy it. So place you camp is unreachable again. As we can read in rules, IT IS NOT AGAINST RULES, until you are willing to jump off if you are last in your team.

OK. Now CS blocking. If you can get somewhere, i.e. (like in my case) go up the stairs in single ruin, it is reachable. Camping there is OK, right? But wait: camping unreachable places is NOT against rules, until you are willing to jump off if you are last in your team...

So what, if I want to make that single ruin unreachable to camp there? It is not against rules to camp unreachable place, right? I will use CS to make ruin unreachable. What now? Now I am against rules, because i blocked passageway. But hey, I still can get out, because I am that a big asshole that I will block only stairs. And i am WILLING to get out. That's what I did, if it comes to thread at the top of my post.

My question is, WHY can't I block a ruin with CS, if I am WILLING to get out? Hell, if it comes to ladder, I can, but if it comes to CS, I cant? WHY? For me, you can ban all players who do that and are delaying round by camping inside unreachable place that was made unreachable in that way, but why to punish people who are getting out when they are last or even sooner?

Discuss and answer my question. Please, don't troll. I want to know the Truth and I want to make rules clear. Why the hell you just favour ladders and hate CS blocking?

PS I am talking about blocking with CS on battle, not siege.

Suggestions Corner / Remove negative effects from rain.

« on: March 30, 2011, 10:01:46 am »

I dont care about particle effects, but negative effects to running, xbows (75% of effectiveness) and bows (90% of effectiveness) are just lmao.

It shouldnt be that way: if i play xbowman, i cant play, if there is rain effectively. If i play agi char, i cant play, if there is rain effectively.

Closed Requests / Ban request for destroying ladders.

« on: March 28, 2011, 01:18:06 pm »

OK

So i dont have screens, but I can give you nick of idiot, who destroys TEAMS ladders.

I was putting my ladders for archers, so they can climb up and shot down opponents.

assFUCKER two times in a round destroyed my ladders, after i warned him that im going to report, he said that he didnt do anything (tho i saw him destroying my ladders). He killed 5 men.

next round, i put my ladder, he came and destroyed it again. No one died, we jumped off before he finished. Now im here to raport him.

Player: assFUCKER


Oh, wait. I have some nice screen - i dont know why, but he teamkilled me in first round of next map.

Also, his comment:

His nick and behaviour is vulgar, i'd force him to change it, but its only third reason to ban him.

It is weird. Very weird.

Change it to something, that actually looks like unsheathing weapon from your left. Something like Longsword.

Suggestions Corner / Buff athletics back

« on: March 11, 2011, 03:17:42 pm »

http://forum.c-rpg.net/index.php/topic,2842.0.html

In this thread we learned one thing: athletics was nerfed so much, because peopel could make 36+ agi builds prepatch. Now buff athletics back, good archer with 6 athletics wont be able to run away now due to lowered speed of drawing a bow.

Beginner's Help and Guides / Athletics

« on: March 08, 2011, 07:42:55 pm »

Just keep in mind that athletics doesn't make you run faster, only accelerate to top speed faster. A guy in plate with 2 athletics can run as fast as a naked guy with 10 athletics in a straight line, so keep that in mind if you make a character like that.
Lot of weird stuff happened in the patch that was mostly eliminated by the level cap anyways, but ah well. I was thinking of making a thread to reinstate athletics increase your top speed... You have to understand that it was done to prevent archers who kited and could still kill people in a few shots. That isn't possible as of the damage & speed nerf to archery anymore... But oh well.
You may be more inclined to have more strength than that, is all I am saying. *fun fact: 13 athletics and you are always at your top speed! You can dance in combat if you are OK with having 3 strength lol.

Is all this text true?

Well, I know that red part isnt true, im sure, because ive compared my run when i had 0 athl 13 pt and black armor to a guy with 0 athl too, but in heraldic.

however, im not sure about rest. And if it was "implemented" (tho i think word "nerfed" fits a bit better), it was implemented in cRPG only or in Warband generally by devs?

Suggestions Corner / Matey's suggestion require a thread. I am posting it. [about gen/xp]

« on: March 07, 2011, 09:43:39 pm »

ill be honest. im gen 12, i get 2100xp per minute at x1... and the grind to 31 is still painfully slow. i feel bad for lower gens because its way worse for them than it is for me. the solution i like is...

base xp at 1x = 1500
retirement bonus = 1 heirloom and 5% xp boost.

this means that its not so bad for gen 1s to get going, and those who have retired a ton of times dont get such a huge advantage. i would also be happy to see either a reduction in total xp to hit level 31 (maybe 8mil instead of 8.7) and another thing i would love to see is the xp required to reach various levels spread out a bit more. it takes like 1mil to get to 26 or so, and then another 3.4 mil from 26-30, then 4.3 from 30-31. lets spread it out a bit more, maybe 2.5 to reach 26, then 4.5 would be 30, and 8 would be 31. make it a little less demoralizing when you are look at how far away the next level is.

This. Discuss and vote in poll.

Beginner's Help and Guides / Help - what to heirloom?

« on: March 02, 2011, 04:53:02 pm »

So i am hitting lvl 31 soon.

For the first time in my live, BTW.

And i just have no idea of what to heirloom.

Currently, i am playing Horse Crossbowman. I am preparing for changing class in next gen, probably melee.

I would be glad to heirloom weapon i want to use, but i have only 7(8 at 31) str atm and there is a couple of choices:

a) light crossbow, tho i am not sure if i will play horse crossbowman again.
b) Niwueidao, but im sure my next gen wont be 1h, maybe 3rd gen will be
c) war spear, but i am sure my next wont be a hoplite build, maybe 3rd gen will be
d) a horse, but i have no idea which one

Help me. If I would heirloom horse, i would take some "light" one.

Suggestions Corner / Long Awlpike, Bamboo Spear, Pike.

« on: February 24, 2011, 07:46:02 pm »

Hello!


1. Can you return possiblity to use Long Awlpike with shield again?

Because now it is almost useless weapon [for hoplites], and it was nice hoplite weapon!

2. You should buff Bamboo Spear a bit. Pike is atm longer, has a bit higher dmg and, due to what these weaps are used, 10 more rtng speed isnt too big advantage for bamboo spear. So buff a dmg a bit or buff speed rtng a bit more.

Beginner's Help and Guides / Question about wpfs in xbows above 160.

« on: February 17, 2011, 08:54:30 pm »

I want to ask you guys about wpfs in xbows above 160 points.

I am sure it wont increase accuracy, but what about reload rate?

I hope it will, because i want to be as mighty quick with reloading light xbow as Rache.
