Slowass Combat speed

[Xant]

You know you're welcome to my place any time you're in Finland, cmp-sama. You'll get all the hammers you need and I can show you how proper nailing is done.

You have a point, though; the "fix" has some unintended side-effects. Urist has an alternative in mind, we'll try it one of these days.

[Xant]

Nice nice. Though since it's Urist, I bet his fix is slowing down the combat speed by 50% to make hilt-slashing impossible. Am I right Tzar?!?!?

Anyways im gonna put you on my ignore list with the rest of the reading comprehensive special kids..

What happened to this? Tzar all talk no walk?!?

My idea was to remove the "ready" duration increase(+0.1s) that happened to 2h and pole right-to-left swing and instead add a slight(maybe +0.05s or +0.1s) increase to the "blocked" duration of the left-to-right swing to 1h, 2h and polearm. This might lessen the left-right combo animation glitch of 2h/pole and also might lessen the instaness of 1h left spam a bit.

So... If I get this right this would insert delay when your weapon is in block? Wouldn't that also slow down feints?

Either way it sounds as more of an idea to try that anyway, see how it goes.

When your weapon is blocked, not when you are blocking with your weapon.

"blocked" or "parried" animations only take place if a swing is actually successfully defended I think.

Which basically removes spam from the game? I'm not sure a rigid block/attack/block/attack rhythm is all that desirable, I thought hiltslashes were cool, even though I sucked at them.

I understand devs have their reasons to choose this slow speed.But why don't allow to some custom servers to set faster speed?
This would spice things up for players and give some real feedback over how a faster battle would work with crpg

0.05s (before being affected by weapon speed) does not remove spam.

I understand devs have their reasons to choose this slow speed,  also it's easier to polish things up if animations are slower i guess.

Custom servers are allowed to run whichever speed they want.

I read all post now and yeah i already knew you can set it on a custom server, but without connecting it to the database nobody will want to play it anyway and nobody will have the chance to test it enjoy test it deeply

Thats still like 5-8% of every attack. Anyhow its going to make outspamming by footwork a whole lot harder.
