I was just wondering, i read something today that peaked my attention. This one guy went on a ran about how he raged about range and all blablabla, but he said and interesting thing, make a server where range isn't allowed, I'm just wondering if that might be a possible thing, if not, why? I'm just curious to see, the idea seemed nice, people could get a bit of both worlds, those whom don't mind range and those whom do. Just a friendly post, wanting feedback :)

There has been servers with melee only and they died off. Even though I never got to experience them.
-
Ahhh i see
-
Ranged doesn't need to range from 1-0 with 1 being shit tonnes of melee players with good ranged capability and 0 being just melee players
I don't want to play on servers without ranged, but the way they are implemented encourages people to take some ranged capability. You don't need much to do well in melee and you can add ranged capability without sacrificing much in melee. Its just implemented badly but ranged should still exist imo
Horse ranged and xbows are implemented the worst because xbows don't sacrifice jack shit in melee and horse ranged can kite forever while dealing decent ranged damage

The HRE server is a melee only server right now :) problem solved, you just have to find people to play with.
-
The HRE server is outdated, on battle mode and with huge maps. I prefer playing PlanetSide 2 over this :/
-
only melee is boring , there are no peasants to chase and kill :p and i really think if you just use a greatswords or poleaxes with shittons of armor , you deserve to suffer from ranged
-
Don't remember if it was the old EU 4 or EU 2 server that had the "no ranged" option turned on, there would be all kinds of classes, but no ranged. A lot better than the small map "Melee only" server in my perspective.
-
The playerbase is to small for that now. Also eu1 will suffer hard when strat is back
-
As much as I hate to say it, playing without ranged is boring as hell. This game needs ranged. The fear factor of ranged dampens the melee rapetrain and freedom of mobility and makes rounds last longer and forces melee and cav players to be careful with how they go about things. Without ranged, the game just becomes a huge boring ass bumrush where the only deciding factors are numbers and the amount of support polearms and where agi whores will reign supreme.

Let's not pretend now that ranged don't target peasants and lightly armored players as a priority.

It's true that oftentimes one might as well go play on the Duel server when one wants a fix of melee gameplay. Melee only battle servers too easily end up being gank only.

Don't disagree with any of you, but how hard would it to just had a new UPDATED server (not like the HRE) and see how it turns out without range, for those whom like it can stay and lay and those whom don't play on the regular server. I don't know much about servers and stuff, but is it that hard to set up a server with specific rules as an experiment?
-
Medieval time without arches, xbowers and cav... gg
-
HRE can't update to wse, not sure what the reason was (not allowed by devs? Server will disconnect when an update of wse is attempted? Idk...) it can only update patches.
The problem isn't just the polestun etc..., it's the fact that melee without cav or ranged get's boring sadly. Not only it takes away need to play smart and avoid these two classes, it also turns into a gank fest almost instantly.

This this this.
Ranged is like salt; you need a little of it to get the most out of your meal, but add too much and you've ruined the whole plate.
