Sorry, I'm not around a lot lately and will probably not be for another week.

If you are talking PK_cRPG_AUS I contacted the owner and if the timing is right it should be connected today or tomorrow as long as he can assemble an admin team.

If the ping is any better (the last one was 150) I can help admin, for the sake of AU_cRPG

I haven't been able to play cRPG in the last few months (moving countries sucks, don't do it) but I know that with Skyrim you can launch through a seperate (SKSE) launcher and it tracks the stats.

What happened to the AUS server?

I used to be a regular, but I've moved to Singapore. No more cRPG here, it's terrible!

We could get an Oceanic server going?

I want to play some cRPG...

It's not just the last ranged guy on a roof hiding that's the big problem Fluffy. It's the general idea of "I'mma camp a roof and make half the enemy team useless" that's going on. It just needs to be removed altogether.

Like I pointed out earlier, a ranged guy on the ground can kill the enemy JUST AS WELL as a ranged guy on a roof. Being on the roof doesn't add bonuses to their weapons. It just makes them invulnerable to anything but other ranged, and that's a load of crap.

Thats just like saying you should remove shields because they make it so only ranged can kill them, making half the enemy team useless. I disagree with it IF THERE IS NO OTHER WAY TO THE ROOF - if the ladder is destroyed. Otherwise it's fine. And also, the speed bonus increases if you're higher than them.

"This masterwork steel-bolt will send you straight to hell Tincan!" - nice sig, looks like you're the gay archer noob whining .

I'm 2h, not archer. Also, yes. One reason they are up there is it's harder for infantry to get them there. Tactical decisions like that don't make them OP - it's like you hiding behind a shielder - does that make you OP ?

Try to think about it as if you were an archer. Personally, I play 2h on the Aus server so I may have different experiences to you, but I'm sure it would be the same. As an archer you can play as a couple of types of archers. The first is a hybrid, who go bow and melee weapon, normally 1h. They go on the open battlefield, and can go quite well. Most people have no problem with them. Then there are the high ath, fairly low damage archers. They run around and sprint away from people when they get close. A lot of melee players have a problem with them, but thats not part of the debate. Then there are the archers with high power draw, low athletics - the normal archers from medieval times. They have low ironflesh and low athletics, so how do they defend themselves ? The hide behind things. Or where melee characters have a disadvantage/trouble getting to. It's logical. As a 2h player, you have the high agi spammers (like the ath archers). No-one gets overly annoyed with them. Then you have the normal, medium 18/21 or 21/18 players. No-one gets annoyed at them. Then you have the crazy str players, that are around 30/9 or something crazy like that. Their only defence is their armour, they can't retreat or run away. What you are asking the str archers to do is effectively loose their armour - what would you as a high str archer say if you saw people calling for no more medium or heavy armour ?
