NA gets Patch

[PieParadox]

Everyone should become a thrower now!!

e: What Saul was saying about bunnyhopping and (accidentally added by a bug) skiing in Tribes is very true. I almost never fall for the tricks where a 2h will miss you with an overhead and drag it to your feet, or a stab that they miss you but manage to drag onto you. It just seems so obvious now. But these tricks are useful against newer players. If I get hit by it, it's obviously my own fault.
In ANY game, the player who understands the game mechanics more will often be better.

It seems most people in this thread just want "realistic" swinging and blocking. As in simple attack and blocking situations and no trickery or deception. IMO one of the most intense things in this game is fighting multiple opponents at once and killing them all without taking a single scratch. This requires some "trickery" however.

NA Drama threads are fun
Why do I feel so dirty though...

Probably because you're making a much bigger deal out of this then there needs to be.

There is a difference between discussing a patch and starting drama.

wheres the polestagger removal

you wouldve had triple the page count by now if poleswagger was gone

(plz throw in the 1/3 ranged nerf again too, and the terribly designed polestagger on the cavalry rider whenever you bumped someone)

[SixThumbs]

But Smoothrich, the horse bumping bumping the rider was a mistake, remember!?

Some fights now are simply about who gets bored first, not about who actually outplays the other.

I'm not really in to melee much anymore and maybe that's why. I'm not the best blocker at all (nor do I care to be) but sometimes it's like I WANT to lose just to get it over with. It's like melee has to use any and all tricks just to get a hit in now and it's boring and tedious when you have to do that EVERY time you fight. Shielders are even worse, doing feint after feint but they are so slow and predictable I want to take a nap just watching. Melee is boring, tedious and very stale now.

I watched Ironclad again for the 400th time, I didn't see any spin stabbing?

crpg has done nothing but make melee more predictable and boring and slow and bad

since they nerfed wpf stacking through gen, combat got slow, then lowered the speed on almost every melee weapon, then changed the animation for stabbing because it took skill, then made it so you bounce on the ground so you cant feint as much, dsofhasiodfhasdifhai fuck all of you

Initial impression of anit-lol stab feature -
Ugh. Hate it on so many levels.
Rather get lol stabbed by Hudson then gimp everything.
I'd rather watch the Sosarian Knight slaughter a group then see him sitting at the back like a camp follower.
Honestly, I'd rather get dick slapped by one of Dasty's spinning jump spins.

This new patch is stupid, take it off now, awlpikes are useless, might as well take them off the game. My weapons are slower, and cant stab, no spinning, what is this update? Are you kidding me?

suckers

[JasonPastman]

When it comes to making the game more realistic, getting rid of lawl stabbing is really the first thing to be done. Should also help to nerf the awlpike which is somewhat OP.

Now just nerf range and we'll be just fine.

Melee feels a bit slower, anyone else got this or am I just imagining it.

I'd have to say you are not imagining this.
