Is melee infantry ruining your fun? (poll)

[Tears of Destiny]

Simple question. I'm just curious since I have been playing a lot of Battle as usual and it's just hilarious that in a game that supports every class, my gaming experience and reading the forums is ruined by some elitist infantry melee bystanders who play "I'm the only class that matters" in here to annoy everyone else.

Just wondering how the cav/range players feel.

PS. In before "fight with a weapon on foot". No, I won't alter my build just because some dudes cba to learn to play the game and prefer blaming every death on the support classes. Also, how exactly does fighting only in melee help keep the game diverse when medieval warfare encompassed all types of classes? It's sort of poor sportsmanship to keep blaming everything on dying to support classes when you could simply knowledge that they are part of the core game design.

As a ranged player i totally get you....

NERF INF!

Nerf infantry runspeed to compensate for the archer bunny hop nerf

I'm beginning to think that ranged is always going to hate on infantry... and infantry is always going to hate on ranged.... and everyone is going to hate on cav  ..seems pretty fair

Just introduce a market where you can buy melee bots as pets.
So no one can blame me for running away, my bot doesnt do that

Yeah. 


Ontopic though, it's the awful number of projectilces aka:
Crossbow/bowmen on every freaking corner effect that is annoying, let alone the running 24/7.
I really hope that roofcamping will be solved somehow, I think of it as an "almost non-existent" problem,
many of us pointed it out that ladders need to go.
And ranged players need those damned stakes instead of ladders in battle.

I'm with tears.

Nice ninja edit you sneaky bastard.

only in battle servers where melee can camp unreachable roofs

Okey, pretty funny I admit, but in what way exactly does melee infantry fuck up your gameplay?

Ranged fucks up my gameplay because they "fight" me at a distance where I cannot strike back and with attacks that render my primary means of defence useless (blocking). They also fuck up my gameplay because they have means to make me completely USELESS (roofcamping/kiting). Thus it doesn't matter how good the archer is that I'm "fighting", I'm gonna die anyways. Also, they force me to spend a lot of my time spazzing out and hiding instead of doing what I enjoy in this game - melee combat.

Don't take me wrong - I ofc think ranged should stay and be part of the game (I just listed what I do not like about ranged, there are things I enjoy about them too)

Melee fucks up ranged how...? You want to shoot stuff, fine they're not stopping you. You want to sit on a roof around a campfire with your buddies? Sure go ahead. You want to err... be able to play this game with only one hand...? No problems, roofcamping ftw :/

I think most of his post was directed at the elitist inf that constantly make threads about nerfing any class that can kill them and hence ruining those classes gameplay just because of some silly inf not being able to fight.

I'm an infantry player myself, but it does get on my nerves when you have Elitist infantry folk who want to raze all the classes and builds playable to the ground just because they died once by an arrow in the head or a lance in the back.
