Change to siderunning and backpedalling

Hi,

I would like to make a suggestion on removing siderunning aka strafing and instead putting a small jump to the side, after which you would be able to jump again for like 0.5sec (lenght would be up for balance testing). That would deal with the silly running in circles during duels, which is pretty unrealistic and i think duels should be all about blocking and attacking guy in front of you, fighting face to face not face to ass... fighting a duracell type of player that wants to get on your rear while you look like a 90 yo dude... IRL siderunning looks silly also just look do you think medieval fight looked like that ?

The change to backpeddaling would be to decrease its speed for about 20-30% so its not that easy to get out of the reach and or as with siderunning also a small jump to the back.

Age of Pirates had system like that and looked much more realistic (outside of fighting dead zombie pirates) than the circling around that have its place in cRPG.

Actually, I think that idea isn't bad.

Sure, you can... but who will take a GK suggestion about melee combat serious?  :wink:

What Miwiw said.

Melee movement is good as it is, IMO.

Mhh, AGI spammers trying to run circles around you while spamming katana isn't exactly the Warband gameplay I love.  :P

Not my favourite part of it either, however seriously nerfing strafing/footwork will dumb down the combat even more, make it slower and more boring.
I voted Gurnisson cause of his fucking bendy pike, I swear noone can roflcopter stab like he can.

Smell another buff to str builds,archers,shielders,cavs,throwers,xbowers and other static scum.
They only need sitting ducks.
But almost certainly I smell huge nerf to agi builds :cry:

Look at all those 2h heroes going to all the "nerf 2h" threads and start qqing about their precious skill-spam.

It will get even worse now since dear devs decided to buff WM,more WPF=MORE SPAM.

and since every1 is using spam,I want you to know that this gen i`m going to be a 2h hero aswell.
In this community,if you cheat,which is the ultimate crime to do in a game,you can buy a second cd key and everything is fine,but if you troll you get a permaban and be in danger for a second one,fair isn`t it?

The only way to stop 2h spam is a stamina system.

The only way to stop 2h spam is (a very tiny amount of) skill.

from a developer who rarely plays his own mod I wasn`t expecting a smarter answer,2h spam and ranged spam is out of control,but instead of trying to balance it a bit you do what??

-You increase the weight penalty for archers to 10k,allowing them to wear heavier gear.
-You removed polestagger because 2h heroes kept crying.
-You will buff WM.

Also a greatsword can outreach a polearm,which is way retarded,but thats not it,a stab can outreach a lance.

quick edit : I`m not whining or anything,I`m just stating the facts of how much broken 2h class is.
