Title: What is this shit ?
Post by: oerput on August 13, 2013, 08:17:44 pm

Why are we playing 1 open field map per hour on EU 1 ? i like most of the new maps and map changes but this open field ratio is insane.

Because you're playing on a battle server.  City, village and castle maps are siege maps according to Taleworlds (and strategus).  Open field maps are battle maps.

Plus open field maps are the only time you see infantry actually fighting (somewhat) together.  Rather than 10 groups of rambos all doing their own thing.

Open field maps are the best maps that exist.  Forcing players to use terrain and teamwork is better than letting players crutch on hiding behind houses.

My only hate towards open fields maps are they are hardly never open fields but hilly as hell!!! Its not the mass ponie charge or boring shieldwalls, but the freaking trend to camp the nearest mount Everest and thus reduce your ath to shit...

Making infantry based maps for EU1 would be a disaster imo. All the credits would go to 2h kuyak shitlords.

Maps where you can play infantry , archer and cav at the same time are the best.

Also because you're cavalry.  :twisted:

That's part of it (obviously I don't like enclosed maps if I've put skill points into riding a horse and the agility requirement that goes with it).  But I honestly feel like players play better on open field maps.  More cohesion, and I like to see tactics revolve around terrain rather than buildings.

That being said, I tolerate closed maps being played (and don't mind having to get off my horse once in a while, so long as I'm not trying to suicide leech), so long as we get to keep playing the open maps when they come up in the rotation.

The amount of field maps is as low as it will get. If you can't handle cav or ranged, go siege.

I like the chaos and disorder of open field maps, you have to stick with friends to survive, big village maps are okish, but IMHO all town maps should be removed from rotation, they are the cancer of crpg, nothing but  medieval counterstrikefests for my old friendchers to top the scoreboards, team with most ranged wins, which sucks balls.

So are close range pike and long spear stabs, being able to shield your horse with your own shield, and swords going through walls. But hey lets discuss how retarded rain is in the game

i have not said that these things are not retarded, i would actually like to see them fixed [along with hiltslashing]. but rain and fog are equally retarded and i dont want more maps where i cant see shit or where i am slow as fuck.

funny thing is that rain acutally helps those with long weapons

Wat? I thought he was complaining there was only 1 open plain map per hour.

I find open field maps boring if they are played to often coz they are basicly the same. "Oh great this map again. Oh w8 theres a tree over there, how refreshing"

it also affects movements speed and correct me if i am wrong but i seem to swing my sword slower when its raining so i guess it also affects swing speed.

Rain effects movement (of infantry and horses), but I do not believe it lowers your speed of weapons (or lowers your effective WPF).
