Upkeep is a bitch as cav. With mid tier gear. (Heraldic with surcoat, lance, KAS, gotland, chaissers nd mail mittens with a rouncey) it is hard as fuck to make a profit. This is already $50K worth of gear, and is barely sustainable, with a slight gold increase sitting on a x5 multi.

I think that riding skill should decrease the upkeep on ponies, or upkeep should be removed from low-tier horses (< palfrey)

This would be balanced, as

 1 riding skill = -5% horse upkeep

This would really ease the strain on cav costs, and plate wouldnt be sustainable as the reduction margin isn't adequate for high-tier gear builds.

I think pony should get  current speed *.64   and  acceleration*1.30  because they are too many of them.

Fair isn't it ?

Very fair poll. Stopped reading there.


So you found my poll so compelling you decided to not read on? Fair enough biased? perhaps true? most defiantly


Hi, only wanted to let you know that I didn't read your OP because of that fucking biased shithole of a poll.

cheers.
 

LOL Umadbro? You don't like don't bother wasting mine and other peoples time by commenting on something which doesn't add to the discussion


Listen all i have changed the poll because according to a lot of you its too biased! but i would like to say i have no idea how all of you got so much money i'm so poor that i wonder if crpg would send someone after me :S

you see i play games for fun not because i have to keep track of my money, heck if i really wanted to do that i would be sorting out my parents mortgage by now.


And No i will not edit my main post just so you don't strain your eyes if you want to read it be my guest.

CRPG needs upkeep and it's better for it.

Before upkeep it did feel great when you finally earned enough money to buy something cool. After that though, what else was there?

Also, I honestly don't know how anyone can have a problem with upkeep. If you're new you have 25 levels to save up money. (Well, as long as you're not stupid and spend it all)

The lower tier horses are also quite affordable. A rouncy is not bad for upkeep. And if upkeep is such a HUGE problem, just retire once and sell your loom. Problem solved.

Yeah but i don't want to sell my loom if i do then i just wasted 20hours of play time,

and there was still heir looming to increase which i believe would of been enough to work towards considering it takes ages to retire and you have what like 4 levels per item?

and thats my point i mean what if i want to use a different horse like an armored plated one? i can't because i can't afford the upkeep.

which also brings me to my next point somebody earlier was talking about " if we got rid of repairs then there would be a bigger level gap between noobs and experienced players"
Well Tbh its starting to look like that now only thing is, is that now its turned around as i see new players with heavy strange Armour whilst i'm stuck looking after my hide set....

^ Playing "guess my equipment by my vague references" gets old very quickly. If you don't tell us what you're using we clearly can't help at all.

He probably got a 20k armor with 10k gloves 3k footarmor 7k helmet 15k danish 3k Steelbolts and 10k Crossbow.
Probably he is right cause 70k of equip should easily earn you money :p

Make a full wipe and there's your balance. You won't be seeing tincans, arbalesters & heavy cavalry for some time.  :wink:
Do you honestly think you have any sort of moral authority, Reyiz? Go genocide some more armenians and deny it ever happened, please, and stay in the middle east.

ok, now you changed the poll so I read your post.

It's really hard to tell what exactly you are saying and you have to tell what gear you are using, otherwise no one can help you.

Make a full wipe and there's your balance. You won't be seeing tincans, arbalesters & heavy cavalry for some time.  :wink:
As I said before a full wipe would be only good if you would get rid of heirlooms and retiring as well, else it makes no sense.
