The other night while the admin was trying to find a map to test, we accidentally got a random plains where both teams spawned in the same location. Fun! If not really a new mode, I would like to see this on occasion.
Mak33, you don't know what you are talking about here.
People are exploiting a bug in autobalance to constantly be on the attacking team and thus make sieges highly unbalanced and broken. A ban is perfectly appropriate.
It's realistic. People wore armour not because it made you some slow tank that would get obliterated by some halfnaked guy or gal that danced around them with fancy scimitar moves, they used it because it was effective.
For the really heavy armor (which is the only one that actually makes some people night unstoppable) you pay about 2k upkeep, so I don't see how it should be fair when someone in 0.5k repair armor should be more effective?
It is not clever thinking. Ladder over gate is inadvisable, until it is fixed.
And yes, going into spectators on siege mode, especially at the end of a round can net you a ban, don't do that. If you really must, say that you will.
Game speed
If I were to decide a good player should "always" benefit from wearing lighter gear due to increased damage output, speed and maneuverability.
This is already the case most of the time but I think the gap should be increased further.
Can't speak to #2, but as for lolstab....
It's simply the thrust attack on most 2hand swords. The animation for the attack makes it very powerful. Many long reach weapons will not make effective contact at very close range, but even long 2hand swords will do full damage on a lolstab to someone immediately next to them, despite the fact that practically speaking, there should be no room to actually swing your weapon. Pre-patch it also received a reach bonus that made it just as long and effective against cavalry as most spears. I believe this aspect was reduced in the patch. I think.
Come to think of it, for #2, are you using a throwing weapon in these instances? If so, you're stumbling because any player with a ranged weapon equipped will stumble when they come into direct contact with an enemy. No damage is actually dealt, but your guard will go down so they can hit you. If this is what's going on (just assuming) then you simply need to switch to melee mode on your weapon when they get next to you.
