That was like LOL

Joined EU1 yesterday. Timer was at about 6:30, I chose my loadout and spawned. Enemy cav already near spawn - no problem I'm a piker. 2 enemy HA show up - I start acting like a crazy mouse and run around trying to dodge arrows. 2 shots - 2 hits. 2 shots - 2 hits. Down. Maybe it was 5 or 6 hits. Took about 11 seconds to kill me.
Great first moments to come home from a shitty workday and be instantkilled by HA.
Its kinda funny that the first thing cav does is to ride to the enemy spawn point to pick off single targets. When I played cav for some gens I was also greatly attracted by the enemy spawn point. Cav always goes for easy-mode couching, only when all the poor peasants and late-spawners are dead they might go looking for some inf or archers that are currently fighting.
Cav needs to be reworked, its a pussyclass right now. There are 2 moments when you need the slightest amount of skill, cav vs cav and ... hmmm cant think of anything else right now.

Eh, lancers are gay, horse ranged is fine.

Some maps had enclosed spawns with invisible one way barriers, but I guess people abused it or something.

There is only one solution to this and that's making maps bigger, or spawns further from each other, but that will just slow everything down further and dull the gameplay even more.

All classes are gay. deal with it.

You could always put spawns inside some buildings.

All classes are gay. And it is like that since it started taking two minutes to kill anyone with a straight fight.

[Grumpy_Nic]

2 minutes? For what, chasing an archer?

archers camped the spawns back then.

and there are plenty solutions,  nice ones would be making cav spawn later,  putting palisades around spawns etc

Putting palisades around spawn would really encourage spawn camp, which is gay.

Cav spawning later could work, but it wouldn't be popular to punish all cav because GK are a bunch of scum.

its not really a punishment,  as cav that doesnt go for spawn usually escorts their inf.  two problems i see are ninjas spawn raping cav,  and that some of the positioning game is lost,  if there is any..

Maybe only put stakes, so that archers can still shoot the campers?
