Nudge and general off-hand fun

[Peasant_Woman]

Sounds great, lets hope it comes to a point where you're happy with it.
Particularly excited for the 2h/pole shove move, I can see this helping longpole users create enough room to spinstab effectively while fighting facehuggers.

[Torben]

the nudge you described would be wonderful to have with 2handed polearms as well-  giving lance cave some close combat capability when cornered.

[Logen]

we 2h heroes need the ability to hit with the pommel

[Bobthehero]

Holy sweet flying baby jesus on jetpack

YES

[wayyyyyne]

Would certainly make me go 1h for some time

[Rumblood]

Put it in. If it doesn't work out, take it out. This is a beta test right? 

[Spa_geh_tea]

Sounds awesome but just seems like another buff to 2h and pole vrs shield. Just like kicking, their weapon outranges and when shield gets barely close enough to attack, wham free block kick slash.

Unless........one or two of these below.

Shielders are still covered during animation.
Shielders are not fixed in position during animation.
Shielders have a knockdown chance.
Shield outranges kick and is faster (kick counter)

[Turkhammer]

anything that add depth realism in combat is welcomed!!

I now approve of this message.

[Tears of Destiny]

This will improve swashbuckling and make things all-around fun, I approve.

: OFF TOPIC :

....wha?  longpole spinstabbers are still able to jump away, spin in mid air, and attack you (even though you are well inside the end of their spear) and force you to downblock nonstop.  Now, I have a relatively short weapon, so others may not have as much this issue...but don't know if longpole users need tools to move people away from them (not to mention they somehow are able to hoise that 15 ft shaft around quickly enough to parry even quick attackers). 

Shielders, however could use something to push people away from them yes.

Overall, like the ideas 

[Froto_the_Loc]

Great ideas. But, maybe make the hotkey customizable? V is the key I use to change views.

of course.
Also, I use V for changing views as well!
I use R to sheath weapons, makes sooo much more sense that way.
But I'd use R for slapping people. God yes.

[Tydeus]

Fuck Q for voice chat. Rebind that shit to (v)oice and use q for nudges.
