General Discussion / Fix the polearms blocking aiming reticule error

« on: January 15, 2011, 07:06:39 pm »

With the new archer animation, if you are carrying a polearm over your back (over half of them) and some of the 2hersas well, when you zoom in as an archer the weapon will blcok most of the aiming reticule including the entire center of the aiming reticule.  You cannot zoom aim as ana rcher 3rd person with most polearms and amny 2hers.  Please can this be fixed, it is making it very limiting on weapons an archer can carry and I love my iron staff.

Closed Requests / Unban request (FakeKesh_BRD) EU3

« on: January 08, 2011, 08:40:52 pm »

     I was recently banned by cmpx yesterday for poll-banning enemy team in a strategus fight.  I have never previously poll banned during a straetgus fight.  The circumstances were unusual to say the elast.  None of the strategus battles are actually working.  We show up for the battles and it never initiates so both sides essentially do a staring contest to see who leaves first.  My team was kicked/banned in a neutral castle defense battle shortly before this one involving the grey order.  However, under the circumstance I made no complaint because after an hour it was the only way to end the fight that never was.
     What the Grey order members failed to mention was that an hour had already passed in this staring contest (much like if 1 person on enemy team who refuses to spawn and so can never end fight) and both sides were promising never to leave the server.  No admins were coming, pre-dawn hours in the EU.  Under most circumstances I would never do poll-ban eneemy team in strategus battle, but under the circumstances it was the only reasonable move to prevent the wasting of hours of both mine and my teammates' lives to no effect.
    The strategus battles are currently broken and under this particualr situation I do not consider it fair to be banned for a month by cmpx.

General Discussion / Why are heirloomed items penalized in upkeep??

« on: January 07, 2011, 06:12:10 pm »

You dont pay less money to repaira  broken item to a slightly less broken state, the upkeep there is based on the purchase price of the original item.  You cannot buy heirloomed items, yet you pay a significantly higher upkeep for the same item.  It destroys the reason for heirlooming if you pay the same price as a more expensive equipment piece (say armor) with not enough of an increased benefit (+2 body armor) to compensate for the higher upkeep.  Youa re better off using the higher end armor unheirloomed, then using lower end equipment that has been heirloomed.  The heirloomed item's upkeep should be based on the purchase price of the original item just as the original items's repair rate even when broken is based on its original price.

General Discussion / Heavy armor needs a significant nerf to run speed and wpf

« on: January 07, 2011, 08:11:56 am »

Since the hotfix to the patch most people ar eback to heavier armor again who were using it before and using iit all the time.  Recently on the 80 man server roughly 80% of people were wearing 14 weight armor and heavier for several hours.  The new upkeep can support this.  Would apreciate a non-upkeep related fix where wearing heavy armor actually does give a meaningful run speed and wpf nerf.  Right now many of those heavier clad folks can easily keep pace with lightly armored opponents and there is no real drawback once you ahve all the equipment you want.  This has been exacerbated by the wpf soft cap as strength heavy armor builds can still have only slightly less wpf then non-heavily armored opponents because the weight nerf right now is extremely mild.  Balance requires a more significant speed nerf.

General Discussion / Trigger delay in melee and ranged weapons since patch?

« on: January 07, 2011, 08:05:21 am »

Has anyone else been experiencing a trigger delay or faulty trigger where you release action key and it doesnt swing/shoot or its  ahalf-second delay?  I have talked with several other people that have been having this problem with the new animations.  Any suggestions for fixes or is this a faulty new mechanism inherent in all the new combat animations that we just have to live with?

General Discussion / Retirement Option Not showing up Level 30 with over 1 week since last retirement

« on: January 05, 2011, 07:25:57 pm »

Does anyone have any feedback when this will be added back into the web site?  I meet all the requirements but nothing is showing.  Are we reset a whole week again starting from the day of the patch, because that would make no sense?
