I want to have an option to make my horse ignore whistles of other people.
Best option:
Horse only listens to whistle of its owner by default until he dies, then to everyone.
Easily coded (I guess :) ):
Give horses a flag that can be switched on at crpg page, and when it's set the horse ignores all whistles.
Alternatively - when horse becomes "stubborn" it doesn't respond to whistle.
-
no

Worst idea ever...the best part about horses in rpg is the whistle! Why don't you just sit on a corn cob instead of play Warband?

Yes, yes, yes and definetly yes. No horse is dumb enough to come when other people whistle. Furthermore, whistle is usually abused just to kill the poor beast and indirectly griefing your team, only allowing the owner to whistle would help a lot against this rampant horse hate.

And how am I to kill all stray horses if they don't come when I whistle?
The worst idea ever.

stray horses are mostly ownerless anyway.

If I see a horse I kill it. If you get off of your horse you'd better say the last words you have to say to it because I am coming to turn it into glue. Whistles saves me some time and allow me to attack the enemy in between horses.
My mission in crpg.

I dismount a lot in battle and sometimes to save money i spawn horseless and wait for one to free up. Don't remove the whistle i need it and the OP is obviously a tard.

This is yet another thread to make cavalry even worse? Horsies are really expensive to maintain nowadays. You really cant use enough armor to keep yourself effective, because all the archers will destroy you, or your horse in seconds if you make one wrong move. And still someone suggests to remove whistling for horses? I want to loot someones horse when I am out of money or dehorsed on the battlefield. Not very likely to survive once my horse is killed, but whistling atleast gives me some chances to get away from the situation. :shock:
-
please read the first post again.
there's no talk about removing whistle completely.

chadz, please for historical accuracy, under the old laws everyone had the right to kill the man who steals his horse, most of them are worth less than the horse anyway, I can understand if we mustn't teamkill, but please don't give them the tools to do it.

You, Sir, need a therapy. You are like one who, because he was mistreated by his mother, sneaks into ladies restrooms and attacks defenseless handbags.
@All
For everyone that disagrees and isn't a troll, read the thread not only the title (mea culpa, I'll try to change it), this is about protecting horse owners who dismount from all the senseless whistle spam, lunatic horse slashers and "knights" who need to steal.

Well, I have to mention it, but this is an epic response actually.
-
Wait, what?
That's the main reason why Whistling was implemented.
-
Oh now that I read the OP again I understand your terms.. Still imo people should be able to whistle enemyhorsies when someone is dismounted :D.

*dueling with a player who's way better than me*
*backing up, hoping some friends come to help*
*see a horse*
*rotate so my opponent is between me and the horse*
*whistle*
*knockdown*
*SUCCESS!*

I tried this a couple of times, but it never worked. Well, once I uhm ... saw ... an accident involving a random whistler, a stray plated charger and an admin on my team... :oops:
Anyway, it would only work when the owner is still alive and/or cares about his horse. As it is now anyone who dismounts his horse expects it to be gone/dead, so most cavalry never dismount even if they could help their teammates better on foot. Almost all stray horses are from cav who died on them or sumpters that are just discarded and only sent running by people whistling or attacking them. So stray horses would still exist for all the things people want to do with them, it would just mean that someone who buys an expensive horse and dismounts it for tactic or fun has less risk to lose it.

Well, it would be even better if whistling had only an effect on horses you can ride. Ignore trolls such as corwinus or mouthnHoof

It already is that way I think.
-
No. I absolutely love whistling for whorses and watch them run straight into my pike. Especially if there is dismounted enemy Cav nearby.
-
I'd say: OP plus no one can ride your horse unless you're dead.
Wait, maybe I'll find my thread that makes my idea a really good idea...
