Currently horseman has no ability to capture the flag nor defend the flag unless they dismount, this makes horseman become completely uselss on siege, in medival times horseman used to ride out to sally forth.
I always play as a horseman in siege . But i have one problem. When the enemies are capturing the flag. If i charge to the flag in the hope to stop the attacker from wining. It just won't work and the attacker win. i have tested this so many time. it only work with infantry but not horseman. please add the feature to horseman so that i can stop the flag from going down as a defender so that i can save my team from losing.
For example: Let say when all my team mates are on the defender team is dead. I am the last one alive. I am a horseman with a plate charger that wears very light armour. 8 attackers are now capturing the flag. The flag is going down. I am the last defender that is currently alive. I rush to the flag. Use my charger to crush those enemy. But it didn't stop the flag. Why only footman are able to capture / stop the flag?
(I can get 1 hit kill from pike / spear and 2 handed sword, it only takes about 1 second to take my down if i am not too serious
horseman cannot capture / stop the flag going up or down. They have to dismount in order to do this.
Quote from Espu "A decent suggestion though, might be worth a suggestion thread."

Would be nice if you could stop the cap from horseback, but I have a feeling it would allow you to capture flags on horse as well (all or nothing). It's also possible that there's no way for them to code that the horse can capture the flags...

No, all i want is that horseman (Defenders) are able to stop the flag, not capturing the flag) and they must stand near the flag to stop the flag
-
No shit...I said it might not be possible for them to only "stop" the capture. I'm assuming the way the game is coded would mean that they would also be able to capture the flag.
I realize you probably don't speak English as your native language, but nothing I said contradicted your original post.

Yes indeed I live in britain and English wasn't my first language :P. I don't see the reason why not if they are going to implement this feature, even if the horseman are able to capture the flag, they must stand close to the flag, if they were attackers it should be easy enough for defender to wipe them out as they cannot move outside the flag. Just a suggestion nothing special, yea there was some wording mistake in my original post so i fixed it thank you sir 8-)

not that anyone gives a fuck: but i concur. adds a new aspect to the game.
yay for deversity, down with the communist levelers!!

Pretty sure this is already in.

Plated charger and two steel shields. Sit on flag and trolololol the overwhelming force of attackers that would strugle to cause significant damage to you.

hit the bitch in the head with my trustworthy axe and she falls like they all do

i saw you on siege, you should notice about this as it is needed.

if someone hit you from back and jump attacks and kill you in 1 hit even if you are on a plate charger.

indeed, i always get 1 hit kill even if i wear plate armor
-
Steel shield on your back adds a fuck load of body armor to yourself. Plus whats to say that guy wont wear plate. Your anecdotal evidence is completly irrelevant.
Cavalry is not meant to do well in siege, the enviroment is far better suited for infantry and ranged.

I myself play as horseman in siege everyday and I find that as long as you are smart enough not to bump your team mate then it's perfectly fine, if i am playing for real i get kill score of 34/25 death. Perhaps you should play siege as a horseman with a plate charger + steel shield to experiened it yourself, :o
-
I played siege consistently for two months as a variety of classes on my main and alts, trust me when i say inf and ranged are far more effective.
Besides, playing plated charger steel shield is the most boring thing around.

Personally i prefer playing as a cav on siege , anyway back to the topic :wink:

On the topic, one horseman doesnt stop the whole area around the flag from being under the infs control. If you want to stop the flag dropping, get off and fight for it.
Also bias polls are insta fail as far as suggestions go.

If the horseman want to stop the area around the flag he must stand close to it which means there is a great risk of him getting 1 hit kill from behind. if i dismount i will surely die in a 1 vs 10 situation. At least if i am able to stop the flag, i can delay it at least for about 5 seconds so that other ally can come to help before i fall off from the horse
i am pretty sure that not many horseman will use plate charger + steel shield as it is very expensive for the upkeep
-
Sell 1 loompoint adn your fine, besides, if you've got 2 or more people on plated chargers with steel shields its gunna take a long time to kill them.

I don't use plate charger ususally on siege, unless If I am actually raging about losing, thats what I do basically. I mostly use a destier. Long time ago i did try to use plate armor + plate charger, the upkeep is redicuilous , i lose about 50k in just playing the game for 15 minutes. I never seen anyone use plate charger on siege except myself :)

You wern't invovled with mod in the days of The Finna and michael were you?

What is that?

What would happen?
People on horses rushing through, trying to cap flag.....So no.
Btw, why don't you just make a thread with "yes" and "no" instead of these weird useless answers?
What does this suggestion have to do with "remove ranged" or whatever? :rolleyes:

All attackers is always rushing to capture the flag, and they have to stand near the flag area in order to capture it. they could win if there is no defenders, but it is impossible to do so without the help from the infantry nearby.
also don't forget about friendly infantry, if the horseman want to rush, they have to be careful or else they are bumping all the team mate which can get you kick very soon
there are three main class in CRPG, one is infantry, one is ranged , one is cavalry . Currently infantry and ranged are able to capture the flag while horseman cannot

RACISM!!! D:

There is no place for horsemen in sieges as it should be. How would you want to stop a flag capture from horseback? Ride through the enemies and then just sit there under the flag on your horse? You would get killed in seconds anyway. If you charge through them you get in the radius and then immediately leave it again, not stopping the capture.
It is really not an issue. Get of your horse and be useful.

People on plated chargers and plate armour. Just doing laps accross the walls and getting loads of kills through bump damage. Pretty hilarious if I think about it, but back then it felt kinda lame.

/LIE.
Once the gate is open for some maps horses are usefull for the attackers, but if you're a defender all you can do is spawn-rape.
/FACT.

lol asking for another cav buff...

If you understand the way of medieval, you will notice that there is a thing called Sally forth, Sally forth is where a group of knights charge out together from the keep to charge at the attackers. Knights were very useful on siege during the medieval times and very often they appears as leaders in the siege. I know i can get kill in seconds if i was to stand near the flag, but those few seconds does really helps my team mate because it will give more chance for them to come to rescue before i fell off from my horse. i never seen anyone uses a plate charger on siege, and i doubt they would, don't forget you can also bump your team mates.

in my opinion i like to play as horseman on defender team because it suits my play style and i love it. you don't have to open gate everytime to be honest.

cav were pretty sucks on siege , play as one then you understand how hard it is not to bump team mate and shit
