10   things I learned playing cRPG

Being somewhat new to the game I would like to share some hard earned knowledge to even newer players in the community. It is important to quickly understand what this game is about to not anger any of the demi-Gods that inhabit the realm of cRPG! Pay close attention and you might soon be as enlightened as one of them!

1. If you hear someone in your team whistling for a horse nearby, always kill any riderless horses around as fast as possible. If you see a team mate heading for a riderless horse and trying to mount it always jump in the air and overhead slash the horse, even if it means that you are team hitting your mate.

2. If you see a team mate being outnumbered on one side and a bunch of team mates outnumbering an enemy to the other side. Always barge in and team hit your friends in the back while they take down the overrun enemy. Your K:D is much more important than your team winning. Always swing against a heavily outnumbered enemy no matter what even if it means team wounding. Allowing people to safely dispose of him from his back while you defend yourself would be a threat to your divine K:D!

3. Similar to this, if you have a shield, never use it to cover a team mate being rushed by multiple enemies. Hold back and get a weak flanking 1H-swing in on one of the enemy group. Of course your score is more important than your team mate’s life.

4. If you have a buddy with a stabby long polearm behind you trying to help by stabbing enemies in front of on one side, make absolutely sure you sidestep and strafe in that direction to block him off and make him team hit you. Then report him! He is obviously trying to steal your glory and if you aren’t the one killing the enemy, who cares if your team wins, right?

5. If you are going to fight an approaching enemy and have nearby cavalry and ranged in clear terrain, make certain that you facehug your opponent so that your friends must either refrain from assisting or risk hitting you. Occasionally stepping away from your opponent to allow your friend to help you would be a sign of cowardice and thereby a very bad tactic. Make sure to report if you are teamwounded while using this superior strategy.

6. If an enemy in front of you is retreating under a rain of blows from enemies, make sure to stand directly in front of his path of retreat to stop him in his track and aid him recover his morale and stop and fight his enemy. Coming up alongside him to support him instead would take longer time for you reaching your kills! Once he is dead you will be there and take his place. This is especially important with regards to players with long pole arms. Since they need space to swing behind them, make sure you shove up close so you can hear that sound of encouragement to them when their back swing hits you.

7. If your entire team is setting up defensive positions along an easily defended terrain feature like a hill or so, make sure you charge in alone vs. the enemy. Since the sun of the cRPG universe revolves solely around you, your team must surely follow to support you in your glorious charge. If they are foolish enough to not do so, please keep up the excellent job of reminding them of their status as inbreed beginners (“tarded n00bs” in cRPG non-laymen terms) for failing to support you. Do not EVER forget to use CAPS for your important information!

8. If at any time you have the opportunity, kick your team mates! They will appreciate this and make you stand out as a hilariously witty and intelligent member of the cRPG community.

9. Always use your native language in chat. Just because it is an English speaking server and server rules say you should use English doesn’t mean you need to since you are exceptional. Using a native language Teamspeak is of course not an option.

10. At the start of a battle make sure to never, ever scan the battlefield and the involved forces and make a judgement of your and the enemies teams strengths and weaknesses. If you have lots of ranged, make sure you charge and never stay back and support them. If you have lots of cav, make sure to make a rush for broken terrain where they can’t help you. cRPG is a game of individual skill only and people trying to use cowardly methods like using common sense or team tactics only deserves looking down upon.

Follow these simply guide lines and you will soon fit right into the flourishing cRPG community. Welcome and may your K:D shine upon you!

New guy in town and he already understands how to play this mod. +1

I'd suggest moving this to the guides section, but then people might miss this great advice.

Other points are somewhat funny and correct but this part makes you a douche. Show me where it says in server rules that you should write in English? I'm pretty sure if it does chadz or cmp will change it.

I must sadly agree with Leshma. Let me guess, your native language is english and you speak no other language? I'm sure the sight of squiggly foreign words you can't process must infuriate you, but this is also the case for many of the people that play this game, who have a weak or non-existent grasp of your language. Apparently they manage, or they learn. If you're so curious, you could just learn russian, or turkish, or whatever. I suspect you're just being an entitled douchebag though.

Fair enough regarding the rules. I was misinformed. But personally I still think it would be more polite to attempt to communicate in english in the server if you are at all able. If that makes me a douche, fine.

My native language isn't english.

Or perhaps those dirty foreign devils should speak normal.

Either speak American or gtfo.

----

That's some pretty blunt sarcasm :S

Let me regale you with a tale!

I was spending a long summers day chillaxing at the beach on the Goldy. The sun shone bright and the waves were glorious!

Many a boob was out on display.

I ran into some Japanese tourists from a city I had done student exchange in. They had a local dialect called Hakataben which I spoke pretty well so when I busted out with all this local slang they were very surprised.

We took off and went drinking and had a pretty rowdy time. As the evening progressed the lovely GC locals started to emerge into the hot summer night and it was at this point that things began to turn bogan.

Whilst sauntering down a secluded lane on our way to club happily jabbering in Japanese a duo of scum bag bogans appeared before us.

Their dry wit and quick smarts were something to behold. Upon seeing a white man speaking "gook" they promptly said "Hey bundle of sticks why don't you speak normal."

And hence forth English has always been known to me as, Normal.

So yeah, speak normal you fucking foreigners.

My native language isn't english.

Neither is mine, nor I'm particularly good at speaking or writing english. However I do prefer using English on game servers. That is because most people understand it and besides, english is the only language that makes it possible for me to communicate with majority of the player base. I'm not using it because it's beautiful language (it's fine imho).

But, not everyone speaks english in this community. Many players are young and come from countries where english isn't in use like in some western countries. Reason why they speak in their native language is not to annoy you, but to communicate with other players.

Assumption that everyone speaks and understands english language is why I used term douche to describe that particular paragraph of yours.

Especially in narrow corridors, you can perfectly block your teammates with a shield; if they try to get past you, kick em to make sure that they can´t block their foes behind em; make them learn their lesson for the next time! If you got a horse, you can block the coward more effeciently; if he TEAMKILLS YOUR HORSE (running gag) due to his cowardly distress, report him on the forum immediately.

Especially crossbowmen, reloading their super-slow arbalest! You can be sure that they´ll laugh about your pun and will love you forever!

I actually agree. It's no rule, but it would help the community if everyone would speak english. If you don't speak english, learn it. That's what I did when I was young and new to the internet :)

Leshma & Oberyn: How does it make you a douche if you prefer to understand what people write?

This has nothing to do with people who can't speak english.
It's about those who can speak english but decides not to.

I could speak Swedish all the time, but I don't.
Because it wouldn't be polite against al lthose who can't speak Swedish.

When you were young, internet was young as well. How much content in german language was available back in your days? When I came in contact with internet for the first time, it was "english or gtfo". And that was back in late 1997. Considering that you're born and raised in civilized Austria and a little bit older than me, I bet you had access to internet few years before me.

And still chadz is right. International community. What language? Right, it's English. It could have been chinese as well if we had a majority of chinese players. :D

Anyway, I did never mind people talking any other language. To be honest, the only thing I hate is when people start writing German on the servers... cause Im able to understand that.

I agree that is easier when people speak english. But I disagree with assumption that people are speaking their native language with intent to annoy others and that everyone understands english language good enough to be able to write it without help of google translator. They simply don't.

Take Ivani4 or Artem, for example. I bet they couldn't understand a single letter of alphabet when they started playing this mod. Now, you can see them writing sorry from time to time, using english alphabet. That just shows they aren't ignorant people, they took time to learn foreign language to be able to communicate better with other players in an online game. This is a game after all, no one should be forced to learn anything. It's about having fun, remember?

Go ahead brah. I personally couldn't give less of a shit if you decide to write swedish to some other swedish guy ingame. Because obviously it wouldn't be adressed to me, so I shouldn't fucking feel entitled to know what you're saying anyways. Unless I was some sort of paranoid cunt with a stick up my ass.
Funny how when it isn't anglo douchebags it's nordic/germanic assholes, who it just so happens have practically the same phonetic (and ugly) gutural pronounciation in their languages. Yeah, people there tend to have more facility with english, gee I fucking wonder why. It's obviously just because they are very polite and considerate.
And the majority of players in this game are native english speakers? Stats please?

You're telling me people have learned skills directly due to this mod simply to benefit others in this mod? That's blasphemy. We here in the c-rpg community do not support human compassion towards one another. Take it back.

A nice little trick too is to throw some spikes on a bridge right behind the 3 or 4 guys in the lead.  Once they realize there is no retreat nor any reinforcements able to help them, they will fight all the harder.  Once they are dead due to being pathetically unable to block all four directions at once and having built a silly reliance on footwork, the spikes will slow down the enemy for about 2 seconds, giving the rest of the team time to realign their shakras or think about what they'll get their mothers next Mother's day.

Also stops those deadly cavalry charges lancers love to do into a packed mob of infantry and range clustered in tight, closed areas.

And as for typing English, I agree.  I need to know who the Quebecois think are my old friends.  Perhaps this needs its own thread.

Occasionally stepping away from your opponent to allow your friend to help you would be a sign of cowardice and thereby a very bad tactic. Make sure to report if you are teamwounded while using this superior strategy.

I do this quite often and I am proud of it. Hate when people interrupt my fights, just as much as I hate being shot at when in melee.

Just remember cRPG is not about winning its about having fun; a fun fight and lost battle is a lot more fun than boring ganks and an easy wins.

But +1 to most of it.

This should be stickied to Beginner's Guide section.

Also one for siege:

11. When climbing up the ladder, try to stay as close as possible to the teammate in front of you. They appreciate it when they feel their weapon connect to your face at every swing and know you're still there. It's like a silent "Don't worry, I got your back". Also remember to report them.

12. In siege always fight as far away from that pesky flag as possible. It will only obscure the beautiful graphics of the game and is certainly not at all necessary to defend. This is especially true on low population siege servers.

13. Opening a door that the enemy team is trying to break down can only go well for you. So do such at every conceivable opportunity. And remeber folks, closing the door behind you is for "tarded n00bs"; you're not one of those types, are you?

Post by: Bryggan on July 01, 2013, 08:16:02 pm
14.  If you're a shielder defending in siege, climb halfway down the ladder to meet all the two handers coming up.  Then slowly back up the ladder with your shield up, leading the mass of enemies to the top.  While you won't improve your KD or get any points, you will prevent any ranged at the top of the ladder to get cheap, easy kills. Cuz that is dishonourable.

15.  When attacking in siege, as a two hander you should always be first going up the ladder.  This will save your comrade's shields for the flags.  Also push by any xbow man or thrower who's trying to soften up any tin can great maul user (or similar unshielded enemy) at the top.  After all, if you can kill these guys with only one hit due to all the bolts and jarids in them, you'll get less points.

16.  Similar to 15, but in towns.  When the enemy is rushing at you down a street, rush right at them.  All those ranged standing next to you are hitting the polearm/2handers like shooting fish in a barrel, stealing your potential points.  So charge in and prevent those guys from getting clear shots.

Also I don't mind if people speak another language (in the server or IRL), doesn't bother me one bit.

Grow a pair and join the battle server, problems solved.  Pro tip, there's plenty of "siege-esque" maps played on the battle server.  Hell the majority of them are close quarter village battles with cavalry being useless.

Grow a pair and join the battle server, problems solved.  Pro tip, there's plenty of "siege-esque" maps played on the battle server.  Hell the majority of them are close quarter village battles with cavalry being useless.

*EDIT* Fuck meant to edit my previous post...not double post...eagerly awaiting my punishment

Lol, pretty sure you play battle so you can spend more time on the forums when you die & also because you stink on foot.

Huh, didn't even mention cavalry.  And you'll see #16 refers to towns, so I am not a cav-fleeing coward.  When on my thrower, I love cav charging at me- unless I miss and they couch me.  I'm just pointing out dumb things people do that screw up the team.

So as a person who likes to enjoy the full spectrum of the C-Rpg experience (except DTV and Rageball, which I find kinda alternative lifestyle-esque), I find your comments hurtful, and I'm sure there must be some international web rule of saying negative things on the internet.

No it's because the majority of people play on the battle server (and I'd rather play with as many people as possible).  Also it has a variety of maps, where every class can be useful.  Not so much on siege.

And I do like alt+tabbing when I die in the battle server, but not to go on the forums (lol I have better shit to do with my time at home), it's to play another game, like Civ V or CK2

Good idea about the civ V, never tried running both games at the same time, thought my comp would not handle it, will have to try :)

I don't play larger than a small world, or I end up getting some lag in crpg.  I'd suggest turning down all your settings in civ 5, should be able to run it (if you have a decent computer)

9. Always use your native language in chat. Just because it is an English speaking server and server rules say you should use English doesn’t mean you need to since you are exceptional.

Wait....people read chat??

You forgot

#00: This point is so important, it's coming even before #1! cRPG is still a beta, and it's still being worked on. Since a beta is not for entertainment purposes, but to work on balancing and fixing bugs, the devs are relying on your feedback. So whenever you got killed by someone and you had the impression he did it with ease, it's probably OP.

Don't hesitate to go to the forums and report your observation. That way OP things can be nerfed, as the devs are working towards getting all the OP stuff in line with the heavily UP 2 handers. So please don't be lazy and help improving the game!

"3. Similar to this, if you have a shield, never use it to cover a team mate being rushed by multiple enemies. Hold back and get a weak flanking 1H-swing in on one of the enemy group. Of course your score is more important than your team mate’s life."

If you have a shield, don't forget to use it to block your teamates backswings so he can't attack instead of covering one of his flanks with the shield  8-)

Well.. since you are talking about "diferent native languages", I guess you are talking about european servers (no ones wants to play in USA servers anyway). Well, you are wrong. Crpg servers always have been "any language" servers. Actually, i find people like you disgusting, trying to force languages on others. Shows your insecurity probably. But dont worry, most of the time they dont talk about you. Do they?. I would find stupid if two turks talked each other in english for example or any other nation for this matter. Get over it. English isnt the only laguage. You know, i dont give a damn about what language they talk since i basically dont give a damn about what they talk in first place. But i guess you need to control all what people say or something. Or maybe you just have fear to the unknow?. Are you afraid of vaginas?.....
