Because if not, I find it pretty silly ingame especially when they full plated dudes riding them. Those horses can even jump to places like roofs and it's annoying. So I think heavy armored/plated horses should not be able to jump. Show me PROOF if I am wrong.
I was the first one who started -1-ing everyone, now everyone does it to everyone.

Well, I didn't find a video or anything so I don't know :D.

Edit: However, I found a lots of video about non-armored horse jumps.

Plated charger with a tincan riding jumps the same as any other horse in game. They shouldn't be able to jump at any significant height. Half a meter would be an accomplishment.
Why is everybody telling me to think? I think, I just don't show it.

I dont think it can be changed as its the gameengine itself. In reality its also impossible for any horse to climb a steep hill or run around a roof - mostly for normal fighters too. I wanna see a full plated person thats running around a angled roof  :shock:
The logic of war seems to be that if a belligerent can fight he will fight.

Someone in plate on foot shouldn't be able to jump the height of a horse and slash you. Loljumpslash.

Same argument.

This is not real life. It may be unrealistic at times, but so are many many many things in this game.

Plated charger should be able to jump, LOOK AT THOSE LEGS
Also, I have declared myself #1 NA hybrid thrower
Formerly known as Marathon.
As an NA admin, I am the most laid back and concerned with the ~fun of the game~ above all other factors. I've also been super inactive since Summer 2012. University takes most of my time, but I still find some time to play when i can.

This seems relevant to the topic at hand.
The results of a study(Limitations imposed by wearing armour on Medieval soldiers' locomotor performance) conducted by University of Oxford, The University of Milan, Royal Armouries, Leeds University of Leeds.

wow warband is so immersive that people forget it's a game.

also:

- polearms should get cut in half when blocking a 2handed sword hit
- if a bardiche meets your head, your head should fall.
- a plated charger + plated knight should not jump at all but should kill you on trample.
- if you get hit in a leg, you should run slower.
- if your arm get slashed by an axe/greatsword/poleaxe you should lose your arm and possibly your weapon.
- shielders should have the option to do shield bash.
- etc...
if you call realism, you should call it entirely. not only the "real things" you like.

yeah that would be funny that if your weapon has a wood handle and you block with it, you have a chance of dropping it

I know that we have a lots of unrealistic thing, but chadz should make the possible things :). I don't care if plated dudes can't jump. Make that too.  :mrgreen:

Edit: And why I am saying? Because you cant sheath pike, but it's a GAME, despite that chadz made them unsheathable to be realistic...so I think this horse jump remove is possible too.

We already have "slowing down" effects on plated dudes.

Unsheat has been made not for realism but for balance matter.
Otherwise there is otherweapon that should be unsheated
