DTV gamemode and roofcamping

[Zlisch_The_Butcher]

and what completely ignore the people around them?i cant imagine them just steam rolling into the virgin nomatter how many of them we hit(they do that enough as it is the only thing that stops them is the prioritize players over the virgin).but the ones who actually charge the virgin are the fucking horses  i hate chasing those horses all the way to the virgin its annoys me to no end
and whats next after roof camping? we are not aloud to hide behind fenced areas? there is a reason why dtv is a dead game mode in my ping zone i have not seen a dtv with more then 10 people in weeks and the reason why its brutal to the point where U HAVE 2 CHEAT in order to win which NEVER happens and this mod is fun i dont know what you are talking about crpg is doing good seeing how its FREE.do you mean DTV?then yes i hope it is made better
i would love to see us being able to move the virgin and be able to use barricades but to make roofcamping a bannible offence will kill an already dieing game mode(dieing as in very few play it) unless something is implemented to substitute it making it useless

I seriously laughed uncontrollably at the fact you had not understood this guy (and me) wants every kind of unreachable spot (for the bots) covered in invisible walls, or staying there be made a ban-able offence...

Duke speaks the truth. Most groups I have been with manage the waves by having archers on the roof to pull a portion of the giant mass while the rest of the enemies head for the virgin/melee players. Its just smart play, no one is trying to intentionally exploit - depending on the make up of your group, the only way to succeed is in fact by playing in such a fashion. Lets face it most of the DTV players are peasants themselves.

Besides if people camp the roofs it will take longer for them to kill the enemies thus they get lower xp, so there is some incentive to kill the enemy quickly.

There are way too many detractors from DTV at the moment : mediocre xp, horrible gold income, kicking bug,  . We don't need to make it even more less enjoyable.

I dont play DTV much but when i do i try to keep the rules enforced.

Bot glitching is silly and a time waster. It's basically cheating right? Winning by cheating is not winning at all.

The general consensus from players on DTV is that its ok and part of the mode tho bcos "how else can we beat these waves???"

The answer is you're not supposed to. I dont think you should see the end wave without having some really good team.

Simple fix would be to play "Defend the Virgin in a field"

Or Some map with a large bridge which cant be travelled under and the only way to get from the bots spawn to the players spawn is across the bridge.

That's the thing: devs and admins don't play the mode, so the people responsible for it really have no clue.

Bad teams who roof camp usually wipe on Vitez (if not sooner). Sniper crossbowmen take care of that.
So even with roof camping you don't see the end wave without having a really good team.

As I said in my first post, I would very much welcome back open maps: IF the spawns were staggered once more.  I mean have 1/3 spawn nearby, 1/3 spawn far away and the last 1/3 spawn even further in the distance. All within a cone of maybe 120 degrees (give the players a safe backside, at least initially)

Right now, having a massive wave of bots all clumped together is just cheap and overwhelms even the best teams if you fight them without staggering their arrival.

exactly you cant back-peddle a giant mob i try i do well sometimes but there ALL the same speed its not like you backpeddle spreads them out like it does to real players who have different athletics


im not saying it the ONLY method to winning

i was referring to how usually the server has a low population so you HAVE TO CAMP

but when ever you have a manly man group who mans up like men and actually fights the mob IN A MAINLY MOP MAN TO MAN

you can last awhile but not for long unless you have a strong shield wall your fucked and even then once you get to axe mobs your shield wall means jackshit
