(And I actually do believe most cRPG players would not do such things. The fun thing about this mod is that it's hard, and a there are not so many "powerplayers" abusing the most OP thing at any one time. Most start out like that, then find it boring..)

I beg to differ  :D
Best ban reason ever:
Quote from: Wookimonsta
I checked, the only Vagabond I found was Wolves_Vagabond_TheCruel, that guy is now unbanned. Ban reason was: "calling Zotte a cockswoggler".

Archers already got nerfed. Now you want so destroy the class.

No one can hit shit in vikingr mod without the cross hair. Their won't be any archers in crpg if you remove the crosshair. Unless each shot does crossbow damage, maybe then archers would stay. Piercing light xbow damage. And I also guarantee people will put a bit of blu-tac on the middle of their screen so you might even be making archers more powerful.

Actually Dri-Erase markers do better. Things you learn by sniping in TF2 and COD... :rolleyes:

I'm all for removing all ranged reticles, but with that, give all ranged the native attack speeds back :) I used to play way too much Age of Chivalry... no crosshairs makes it a little easier actually, you just need to follow the arrow arcs.

Crosshairs don't do much except provide a visual basis for timing, anyway.

And who tells you i'm all kawaii and subarashi?

Am I to expect you to be the savior of stray lamb, cleansing sins through the preaching of Jesus? You know, Vikings kill. And raid. That's two amendments.




EDIT: Hang on, i see.

Well no offense but your signature is a clear anime fan statement.
Second guess was you're a Rotting Christ fan, but that wasn't proving my point (however awesome they used to be).
Also wrong SALEM, the one I love is witch house and a bit lean and a bit offtopic too.

I've actually disabled crosshair now. Well, I've often been playing without crosshair before, but with the new projectile speed the crosshair just seem pointless - I'll have to lead and compensate for drop so much it isn't even close to the target. So I just shoot after gut feeling and correct aim after each shot, still luck into headshots sometimes. Which isn't bad at all ... but tunnelvisioning kills me half of the time. I mean do you really have to ignore all infantry fighters to get the most harmless guy on the field?

Rotting Christ... Never heard of those. From a youtube sound cool, the kinda voice i like for... [notsinging]

Anyhow why would a anime (not the chat animes, fight animes) fan not like vikings? I find them cool. I find lots of things cool.
As for the realyour Salem, not the one i picked up from google images, too stoned for my taste.

Cheers for the nice band though.





On another topic, played a bit of vikingr and as i expected no crosshair ain't too bad, just took me a while to adapt to the 3rd person view aiming. Also their arrow-in-flight models don't help, it's easier to track the arrow path in cRPG. Now... Those awesome armors they got there, and the polearms and axes, would love too see those on cRPG too.


(Btw, i do horse archery, and shooting at full speed crosshair makes little difference there, unless you've got no idea where the middle of your screen is. this hurts foot archers a lot more. And xbowman.
