Anything to make the game even more like an FPS and less like a completely original melee combat game. :rolleyes:What is a medieval battle without bows and xbows ?
Power Draw should increases the accuracy, draw-speed and draw-time of all bows :!:

Yes, lets have one skill that improves every aspect of archery. No one should have to put any thought into their build. Why choose between damage and accuracy when you should have both?PD increases accuracy, but only up to PD5.
I dunno, something different than the 100000's of other FPS's out there where everyone just shoots at each other in ranged combat?
But no, instead we'll just have medieval counter-strike.
Longer the reticule holds before expanding.

Seems a good balance to me considering all the bad stuff.
I'm beginning to think you've never played an FPS, because archery in c-rpg is NOTHING like any FPS I've ever played.
Shoot bow.
Make lunch.
Run to the store.
Learn a foreign language.
Come back just in time to find your target realized his shoe was untied and ducked the arrow.
Rage.
Repeat.
PS would slow down your swings,well actually that would make sense - the meat mountain swiiiinging his 500 pound mallet or poleace and crushing everything would be and should be kinda slow motion. But of course this is a highly unrealistic melee FPS, and we ranged scum have to be happy we are tolerated sometimes on some servers... ;-)
lower the accuracy of your hits
and it would lower your swing-hold time.
Heeheeeee, made my day. SO true and one of the reasons I am not playing much atm. And don't forget the point before "Rage." - "Team buddies already killed the target while it was busy with his shoes and stand in his place when your arrow finally arrives..." - "Fucking friendly archer watch your aim!!!!!"
Last patch fucked up missile speed for bows AGAIN after it had been more or less ok for a short period of time.
But back to PD: I noticed the same and it totally spoiled the fun playing a STR archer. I used to be PD 9 or 10, right now I play PD7 since anything higher totally screws you.

tbh i dont know if wolves_nelo told his true build but it seems 6pd are more then enough.
I have 21 str (ok no if) and 60+ armor everywhere and he always could kill me with 2 shots of his longbow.
So if you heirloom bow +3 and arrows +3 you gonna really rock and dont seem to need more pd cause your damage is ridicolous.
=> no need to discuss about more pd ;)
So I finished my test, and these are my findings (for PD5-8 and 150 Archery unless otherwise noted):
Power Draw decreased my accuracy for all bows, and the more Power Draw I had, the less accurate I was.
Power Draw also decreased my arrows per minute for each point allocated (except for a particular case, see below).
WPF increases the hold time of your reticle by increasing your draw speed (giving you more time before your reticle starts to become inaccurate); comparing 6PD 170WPF & 8PD 150 WPF, the lower PD and higher WPF character was able to hold the reticle longer (by a noted amount).
If you want to be accurate, be able to hold your reticle, and draw a bit faster; go with less PD and more WPF.
If you want to be hard-hitting, and have faster arrow flight; go with more PD.
Beyond that, I can't recommend anything. I can post any other bow screenshots upon request.(click to show/hide)(click to show/hide)(click to show/hide)(click to show/hide)(click to show/hide)
Wait, what? So a stronger person, who is more used to drawing a bow have... lower speed and accuracy than some weakling who just started to do archery? Yeah, that sounds soo logical... :rolleyes:And what? You going to balance the game with "realism"?
And what? You going to balance the game with "realism"?
Well, they did rebalance bows with the realism card, so anything goes now!
Okay sure then :
Archers get reduced arrow speed everytime they shoot due to fatigue, after twenty arrows the drawing speed is reduced by 50%.
Mail armor with padded jacks users are immune to arrows. (body, not face)
Tincans are completely immune to arrows except weakspots like under armpits/ eye slits on helmet.
You sure you wanna get into realism?
Okay sure then :I said logic, not realism. Situation, where stronger person is actually weaker (he cant stay still with his bow) is not logical. Bow being able to pierce through plate is logical, but unrealistic, so it's not as bad as mentioned by Me situation.

For a fallen you sure seem to be doing it wrong. Cut the bullshit about archers, I have one just for lulz and to go trolling on because it's easy. Perforated_Prostate. Used to be Moneyshot. I've always had an archer alt to go be a fucktard on when I'm feeling lazy and don't want to put effort into melee. Hell, I run naked with a horn bow and barbed arrows and a damned practice sword and still come out positive on the kdr side.
The other fallen seem to have no problem with archery AT ALL, so maybe you should stop skipping those clan meetings and train with them to see what you're doing wrong. Just sayin'.
I'm a real archer and I made my own 90 pounds english-warbow and arrows...
and im able to draw the bow for 15 sec and then I'm aways able to shot accurate.
So I know what I'm talking about :wink:
Sorry if my english is not perfect...
sure .... sure....cpt. superman. I can jump 2 meter high with 360° rotation and 1 sec later ill hit a target 2000 meters away with my self made warbow,
Realy?
You must be batman...
