Half the other team is cav (GK)

I pick up a pike long spear to stop the cav madness

Talking about EU1, recently noticed an increasingly big amount of Horse Archers dominating the tide of battle every round, to the point that the number of HA in your team is directly proportional to the chance of adding a multiplier to your grinder.

There already was a Vaegir (Kuyak) invasion, is it Khergits' turn now?

Play on smaller servers. EU_1 has always been like this and I don't think it will change.

The only time I really enjoyed EU_1 was when the new 200 slots server was released, and that night it got full for hours.

Now it's just less than 80 players (40 vs 40...) with 50% archers and 25% cav.

Would it be possible to set a limit for classes, like in some servers of Battlefield Bad Company 2, where a team couldn't have more than a certain number of snipers, for example?

For instance, there could be a limit for the number of archers and cavalry per team. I think it would be a good way of saving battle.

[Akynos]

There is a constant politic debate whether cRPG represents freedom of class and gameplay choices, or if it should adapt to be the most enjoyable for everyone. In both cases, a sacrifice has to be made.

  Maybe few too many of those maps, adventage goes for archers in this kind of terrain. Didnt like those broad plain type maps either thought...too much adventage for cavalery.

[Kafein]

that's what you get for heavy kuyak+vaegir war mask+danish war mask combo

Yep, karma is a bitch.

Imho i think some of the best balanced all around maps are the ones that mix in urban town settings with slopes and tight corridors.

The village maps are either too biased when you compare spawn or the plain maps simply makes it too easy for x key heroes...

[Kirman]

the plain maps simply makes it too easy for x key heroes...

Thats why i dont play on EU1 for a longtime. I prefer siege. Theres still lucky headshots by archers but at least not x key heroes. Well i see few cav sometimes it must be really hard to press x for them or the x key doesnt work on their keybord

Interesting how this thread went from a joke about dying to range a lot in EU1 to "NERF RANGE BUFF 2H PLS"
