Are you happy with the work of the balance team?

1. Are you happy with the work of the balance team?

I f.Ex. miss transparency and discussion between users and the balance team, I cant understand why crossbowmen have to be super accurate, deadly and uncatchable fast at the same time, why did they get a fast mace with 30 blunt and knockdown. Why a berdiche with bonus against shields isnt unbalanced and so on. When I play I often rage about this and that.
I want to know what other people think, please tell me are you happy or unhappy.

2. What makes you happy or unhappy?

[slothscott]

Balance team works and is constantly making changes so im not un happy with them, however I do dislike the elite scimitar's stats/superior model.

[Vibe]

So far so good, but still a lot of work to be done.

[Cepeshi]

main balancer is xbowman, what would you expect?


on the other hand, xbows are fine

That he not abuse his power and think more about general direction of the mod?

[Digglez]

balance does a fair job.

what should be changed

able to join clanmates on first round without waiting for a 'balance'
splitting apart clanmates...always having an odd man out on the wrong team
if there are multiple clans, always put them on different teams...never put a few clans together vs pugs

[MrShine]

In general I answered yes.

However, I feel like there are some classes that feel slightly under-powered.   Those same classes also seem under-represented by balance staff.

Making a STF alt and playing it for an hour doesn't give you the same experience as actually having people who play these dedicated classes, and I think balance hurts because of this somewhat.

Still overall good work as long as things keep improving.

Just remove all mauls and other crushthrough-weapons from the game and ballance is fine.

Cause you're shield nub.

From my point of view couching lances are the biggest imbalancing factor

Pft

I can dodge them with only 5 athl, if they don't get me off guard. But when you encounter a guy with a maul as a shielder you're dead. Or is there any tactic besides dropping the shield and searching for something longer than a 1h sword or running?

1. i lub the balance team! especially fasaderp for buffing my precious mw arbalest (how about giving the reload speed some love, huh?)

2. tears of whine makes me happy.

[Corwin]

As far ad I am concerned, this mod is currently in the best state since I started playing. I am sure that future patches will bring even more balance and improvement.

Overall, yes.

The dev team are not being paid, so people who bitch about it are probably the same people who go to soup kitchens to yell at the servers for not heating the food enough.

Yes, there are some problems, yes there are some issues, but I'm glad to be a part of this project that has the potential to be something really great (if it isn't already).

There are threads out there with suggestions for improvement, and I'm happy that the community is engaging in active support of the devs.

[Mtemtko]

IMO, it is already. No other such game. Period. People who quit get bored soon enough and return when they realize they can't find anything similar anywhere else.
