EU1 These Days.

it would not solve kiting since they would just run longer.

This.

Of course they can run, but they would be completly useless by doing it, because they cant shoot without getting hit by the followers.
Even a 10ath archer cant be faster as his follower if the archer draws his bow(so he actually walks).

Eh? I don't see how it can stop archers from kitting in the case when they are chased by infantry. They'll just run away long enough to shoot in peace.

I don't really care but still...

Believe me it works 
I implemented this mechanic months ago in my own mod and it works perfectly !

Infantry chasing an archer is useless, too, because he can't attack anybody either. It will just degenerate to a patience game about when the infantry is going to give up.

I would still like to redirect the attention to my initial suggestion of changing the gamemode, so that chasing archers with infantry becomes obsolete anyway.

Maybe.
But isnt it better that the archer is able to shot 1 arrow while fleeing instead of 10 like it is now?

The most anoying thing about the current kiting is the ability of archers to shot a huge amout of arrows while being chased by other players.
So with the suggested method the arrow-spam will be reduced a lot.

Kiting itself was a historical tactic...
and removing it completly would make archers completly useless.
So I'm against removing it, but making it way less effective with the walking-method.

I'm sure it's been suggested, but what of making the flags spawn at a set time (say at 2:00 minutes remaining), forcing all remaining players to fight it out as men would - all classes serving their function : melee in the thick of it, ranged shooting from afar, cavalry taking out loners - ALL OF THIS without the colossal bore and waste of time that is kiting?

"No! The team with the most infantry would win!" one might say.

In this situation the shielder would win against the archer, the archer against the spearman, the spearman against the lancer, the lancer against the shielder - pretty much the same way it always goes, but WITHOUT THE ENDLESS RUNNING.

Remove  the Rusbow from Hell the and game is fine.

Remove  the Rusbow from Hell the and game is fine.

Removing content from a mod isn't a good idea.
I know that the balance between the rus bow and long bow isn't the best, especially the speed raiting.
But deleting the rus bow wont make the game better.

I feel you! Heres my thing

  not even funny

[Ninja_Khorin]

Goes to EU1
Plays there for a while.

Stopped playing cRPG
Playing Dark Souls
Fell of cliff with 150k souls and 30 humanity
Can't pick up the bloodstain
RAGE!



Before Dark Souls it was like this:

Accidentally enter EU1
Quit EU1
Enter EU2
Play for few hours and have fun
Quit EU2
Enter DTV
If there is Patoson, play for an hour and have great fun
Quit the game while still being happy person

[Lizard_man]

I think with this game, you really need to have a good start to be able to enjoy yourself to the fullest. For instance, joining the server and getting 12 kills on your first round is a huge boost to your fun. Joining the server and been lanced the second you spawn, RAGE! Next round you get shot to pieces, RAGE! As it is, it's rather hard to be able to enjoy yourself on EU_1. I try my best, but in the end it fills me with RAAAGGGGEEEEE!

[Tzar]

Just play fuckin siege for god sake get with the program 

[sF_Guardian]

My way of playin:

Joins EU_2 with main.
Quits after 3 rounds cuz of total boredom.
Joins EU_1 with Hoplite alt
Plays 3 rounds with a smile on his face
Leaves with a smile on his face to do other stuff.
