There I was, thinking that for once I would get some sensible information from chadz.
Hope you learned your lesson. ;)
Hi there,
this is one of my first, if not first, post on here, so please be kind :)
Anyways, i have read a lot about the patch and gameplay afterwards, so i decided to put up something small also, as my two cents.
I started playing C-RPG and M&B in general like one month ago and i loved it, i got myself third generation char with 2h spec, running around in heraldic mail with balanced tears, was fun, altho i am having issues with manual blocking untill now, but, working on it :P Going to battles, trying to survive first few battles as close to them but as save as possible. Getting 5 in PS so i was actually able to slash someone in two or crack a shield with hammer felt so damn good. I was "powerleveling" my last character to 30 so i could enjoy the fun of 6 athletics and loads of WPF, but, then the patch came...
I logged in on the website to find out my transferred wpf are gone, my lvls are gone and that i will have to pay upkeep now :( I went to the game, as i had set gear for my top tier on the website, first two rounds costed me 4800 + 4900 on repairs, i had like 8k total by then, i had to play few more hours to make up for the loss (as i am usually on the losing side :( ) I was more frustrated than thrilled, and was thinking to even quit, but then few friends came online, we went into battle in leather armor and we had loads of fun getting down horses and stuff. In one afternoon after 0.200 i made round 30k gold, i can wear two good weapons and almost my best armor (xcept gothic plate, even tho i wear that on ocassions, repair now costs 1200 or something instead of 4800, so affordable pretty good :)).
As always, there are people that are having issues adapting to changes, those are the one that whine on the forums. I have been thru a lot of patches in a lot of games, which changed them quite hard, but me and my friends just got over, as we will get over this.
Just give the guys like week or two to do the tweaking and i believe it will be as enjoyable for all of you as it used to be till now, even tho, i dont get it, as i am having fun even now (makes me sad when my friends are on winning team and i am losing, you can hear the happiness in their voice on TS, and you are getting angry of no xp/gold:D )
So, have fun playing, get some friends to try the game out (as fresh starts is always good after some major changes, the new people get adapted pretty well :P) and thanks for making this even more enjoyable, now we actually have to think what gear to use to maintain positive balance and work as team to bring down plated horse as a bunch of leather wearing people :D )
And if you want to bitch about something, give it some time untill its tweaked.
Did you have a word with Chaz so he can make this style default? That would be really neat.
In the vast majority of cases those that are left on their own fighting 20 other people and yet still keep running away, stand on a roof, or hide in the bushes somewhere are stupid fucking bundle of stickss who accomplish literally nothing but waste time, even if that time is only 2 or 3 minutes. If you are in that position it's probably because you were useless to your team when it really mattered. When the server has 60 vs 60, that is 59 people on your team waiting for your dumb ass to die. In total 177 "manpower" minutes minutes wasted. Don't get me wrong, there are occasionally heroes who win it for their team, but it's rare. If you want tactics and organization, set it up at the start of the round. When your team are all dead and you're being rushed by half the enemy team is a little too late, and being in that situation in the first place means ,again, that you were fucking useless. No one should have to wait for you to set up some so called "tactics" by yourself that at most will net you a few more kills, and do nothing for your team.
In short, fuck delayers, go play a single player game. This is a team game, it's not Thief online version. Your rant is particularly ironic in that you praise teamwork and last stand delayers at the same time. Diametrically opposed.
PS: Savage 2 was fucking great :D but Savage 2 was also a resource game with economic objectives (mines, bases, upgraded units/buildings). You can't really compare it to a cRPG round. It's like comparing Starcraft to Myth TFL.

changed xp from 1500 to 1000 per minute:lol:
shit
yes ...i think it's ok :shock:
Have you ever played cav post patch? I bought a destrier and i cant even keep that up continously, there are rounds that i will ahve to go back to inf cause there is no money for repairs. Im not earning any money just paying a lot to ride a horse. And horses are already rpetty vulnerable cause nowadays its hard to keep up any armored horse. I think cav is pretty balanced cause it costs a lot.Yeah, thats right. I was a cavmy old friend back then. I remember saving for a destrier prepatch for so long, then the patch came and I got it really quick, only for the upkeep to rape it.
The new bow animation is awesome. But could you code it into 2-stage thing like xbows are? That would be most awesome thing ever! :D
I think simply upping the damage by another two or three points would make it viable, then it would be a good nitch weapon that could be used for headhunting cav/tin cans. Oh, and making the image for it larger, it looks too small in-game.
As for the complaints that by the time you draw your bow you have to readjust for a target, I disagree. I at least can move my reticule and track while drawing (Is my game glitched then?), so I only lose targets when they go behind cover..

Hardly, must be 10+ PT, not sure if even that should do it when you are in gothic. Maybe you got hit in the head but it looked like you got hit in the chest, the axe model is fcked up. Also i see people with axes sticking out of their heads all the time.
You make me happy.
well you're not alone, I'm playing 2h polearm on horse, not a lancer... :wink: 8-)
so that make us 2 crazy m**** f***** :twisted:
I really love the ladders. It turns boring, static maps into dynamic and tactically interesting maps.
And they turn bad maps even worse! Duh.
I'd like to be a part of the Hospitallers. I see you guys in almost every single game I play, and all of you seem to have good teamwork.
I am under 18, but it seems like that won't be much of an issue if I'm mature. I'm still newish to cRPG, but I think I'm getting the hang of it. Let me know if ya need anything else from me.
No, you're still a my old friend for having wanted to join Hosperglers.It was a mistakeee. I was young and naive.
cav pls stop the bitching and read chadz post on page 2 of this thread
april 29? laaaaate :D
Patch is fucking AWESOME !!!
To be honest The order existed even before the first public release of cRPG.
