EU Servers autobalance setup

[Dehitay]

The problem weren't the Bashibazookas playing as a team, but the times when the GK were on the same team, aka full cav team plus organized clan.

And this is something to be sorted out, "class" balancing.

When the enemy goes mostly cav, sure they're more powerful against a normal team. But anybody with half a brain could figure out to start bringing plenty of pikes and long spears, and then the infantry team would have the advantage. Unfortunately, a significant portion of crpg doesn't have half a brain.

Unfortunately, a significant portion of crpg doesn't want to use more than half their brain when playing a computer game for relaxing.

To be fair, I don't think any warband game or mod is a good one if you don't want to think at all, unless you really don't mind dying a lot... There are better games that require less thought while still allowing you to murder something.

I think you're playing too much with the friendly archer squad!

I do think most people don't have the dedication to play like that... they just rush in and try to kill the first thing they come across or loosely follow their team until that happen...

[Tears of Destiny]

Oh, right...  What we call casual play and "goofing off" is still considered "work" by most others...   

Eh.... Carry on then.

Yeah, yeah, everyone with any spec possible has to grab a fucking polearm to be able to survive at least for a while, retarded.
If i choose to play shielder, i did cause i wanted guess what? I WANTED TO USE SHIELD AND WEAPON, not a pike.
If i choose to play 2her, i did cause i wanted guess what? Run around with badass 2h sword and look ugly, not to carry around a pike.
If i choose to be polearmer, then i am fine.

See my point? Making people use stuff they did not want to originally play with is just retarded. I do understand that adapting to situation is okay, but i do not like to be forced to different playstyle just cause the balance puts all the clans on one side and i am screwed with randoms. Awesome.

But, i guess ill just sport GK banner, why not, i am a freelancer now.

2h and polearm have to take a shield or armour because of archers. Unless you're a douche 2h you don't need a pike...they are better than a lot of polearms for tackling cav.

Unfortunately if you want to win, that's what you have to do. Even with strict balance and not banner balance and GK not all on at the same time, there can be cav heavy teams, archer heavy teams ect ect. So dumb argument really.

still smarter than just telling everyone to play different class, if they want to actually win

Not play a different class. Just load up a support weapon of some kind on top of your main. Hell you don't even have to have wpf in it. It's really not that difficult. Either that or play as a team and stay with a pikeman, rather than run off on your own.

The thing is, this takes out my versatility, i used to carry around sword and some crushing weapon, now i am forced to use pole in order to be effective or somewhat useable, which is bad. And yes, i can use it even with 1wpf, but then when i dismount someone i am either screwed as i cannot do shit 1v1 with a pike, or try to swap to sword just to be raped by other cav, how cool is that? I see you are defending cav in particular, as you are GK, but this is not aimed against cav.

I just dont like when i am forced to play different style than i choose and evolved my char around.

I am defending cav because you were directing your post at GK.

But anyway, crpg is largely a clan game. If you don't like the fact certain clans roll a particular class, play a different server for a time. Load up an alt. Bring a different weapon. Work more with your team. There are any number of solutions. Unfortunately being an all round build in crpg means you will die to everything. Specialising as a 2h ect means you have to be skilled to be able to tackle everything the game throws at you. So develop your skill more if you find it such an issue. Hybrids aren't such an option as they used to be, so if you want versatility, become good, or you're in the wrong place.

my clan just died, that is for playing with a team but yeah, might just stick to fire and sword captain coop, that shit entertains me way more than crpg in this state

not everyone is skilled enuff to be accepted to some clan or meet the time requirements

Depends on the clan. GK let people in fairly easily as long as their main is dedicated cav and they can stick with the theme. We don't really have time requirements either. Just a bunch of us will happen to play at the same time, seeing as we are all EU, that happens quite often. As for strat, we don't make everyone load up strat, it's optional.

You just have to find the right clan for you.
