aye but its not called MOUNT and MOUNT and MOUNT and MOUNT and MOUNT and MOUNT and BLADE :)You said it yourself. It is now 25% MOUNT and 75% BLADE already. So it is like MOUNT and BLADE and BLADE and BLADE or so. You want it to become BLADE and BLADE and... eeh screw it already. You get it. My answer is, I'm afraid, no.
like there are 1/4 of cav on servers because of archery nerf... we traded devil for satan...
so much horse haters ....
I agree. I would like to see a horse being so expensive that one can only ride it every ten rounds or so, and in return see them buffed a lotSurely that would split the population into those who can indefinitely afford the newer OP horses and those who would have to grind beyond all reason.
The only solution for not seeing horses, tincans & arbalesters for some time is full database wipe and since it's not gonna happen every other suggestion is futile, especially the price raising. People are rich in this mod, they need to be striped of everything they own, it would be glorious for a change. Fresh start and equal odds for all, no matter how long ago you started playing.That's not really a 'solution'. More like a temporary 'make people feel good' measure. The game can never be 'equal' because players aren't equal in how much time they play and or skill they have. Also why can players buy anything they want just after a short time playing? Things aren't that expensive is why so let's make them more expensive. Ok, but oh yeah people don't want that either cause it 'punishes' new players. Why not just do what some of you seem to want and limit how much gold people can have so nobody is capable of being rich? That's really the only 'solution' that will satisfy the whiners. Just make the limit 50,000 gold. Problem solved. Then when you see players in expensive gear at least you can take satisfaction in knowing they will be going broke soon.
That's not really a 'solution'. More like a temporary 'make people feel good' measure.
Yes, i called it a temporary solution up there, still better then nothing. Game needs refreshment and what better way of making it uber-interesting again then a new version of bug/cheater-ridden Strategos accompanied by a full database wipe so we're all peasants again ? Would take ages to get into the current state again, ages of uber-interesting cRPG. Not that it's gonna happen but a man can dream all he wants and share his dreams with others. This dream would solve more then half of "suggestions" in this sub-forum for some time to come, at least they wouldn't need to "invent" things to balance it out, it would balance itself that way. :wink:

Great way to ruin a mod though.

Nobody commenting on not changing the upkeep but rebalancing the class in a more skill-based way ?I don't think that this would help to lower the amount of cav. Maybe less lancer and more HA/HX and that's not desirable.
You can't have a nice fight, lasting for... let's say 20 seconds, w/o getting shot at or bumped/couched/lanced in the back. It really takes a lot of fun out of the game.

i tend to think that being a hybrid cav is the most effective hybrid there can be. invest 6 points in riding and there you go zooming across the battlefield with a horse that does really good bump damage and backstab all the way. You dont feel like playing cav or need to save up? well you can go on foot and be as decent as any infantry out.
If you see a hybrid thrower, he has to invest those 6 pt, a decent amount of wpf and wear light armor in order to be less impact then cav on the battlefield.
Maybe cav doesnt require enough build sacrifices? is cav to easy to acces for someone who has a loose skill? Just tossing some ideas in
I don't think so. As infantry you'd be a lot better off being 24/15 than being 18/18 footman who is hybrid cavalry.
Don't know if anyone told you yet but.....this has been done a few times in the past, each time "legends" & "veterans" threatened to GTX but they're all still here plus thousands of new players who came after. And i never said just "wipe it as it is"......the key words are "new vastly improved Strat & Battle servers, ridden of game-breaking/ruining bugs" and stuff like that.Well, I happen to think the devs put a lot more thought into balancing the mod than some of you may think. What's the problem here? (specifically to the OP) Horses aren't expensive enough? Ok, double the price, In fact double the price on ALL high end gear as well. I won't whine and I don't have hardly any gold (anymore). I even gave some of it away cause I was feeling charitable. So 'make horses more expensive'? Sure, also make high end gear more expensive. Also reduce gold for high level gens and increase for low level. What else can be done to help the helpless?
Anyways - it's just an idea nothing more, everyone is entitled to his own opinion on how to change situation for the better, you don't have to agree with it.
