That's ridiculous, releasing a patch and then removing the biggest changes....
not blocking with a pike was cool !
and the stuff with the horsebump was also a nice idea, but it should be something like: the horse receives a big damage for bumping, calculated by the horses armour and speed or something. But nothing is bad, because bumpslashing is back now -.-
And please do something against all the bouncing that came with the new patch :/
