Revert to Vanilla!

[Gravoth_iii]

Dont speak for everyone, i still love battle!

[Rebelyell]

yeah there is nothing better to be 1hited with plated charger bump, or glance on everything around, barmace and morningstar madness, pocked lances ect.
old crpg server was on for some time and hey! players got bored of that ranged fest after fave days.

[LordBerenger]

the changes in the slot system, leveling, the user interface, animations, everything has streamlined, aka dumbed down the game, probably to make it more accessible to a broader playerbase.

yet the only game mode that features real cRPG gameplay is the shitty and stale battle mode, that everyone is sick of, with all of the cookie cutter gear and builds to maximize your playtime in a shitty 1 life round filled with headshots, couches, kiting, and heavy armor.  new and old players alike are simply sick of it.  old cRPG at least led for hilariously OP characters with wacky weapons and insane loadouts, which made the generic battle gamplay unique in its own way.  now its bland native multiplayer with over-simplified mechanics which is basically babby's first medieval counter-strike, but with grinding and conformity. 

this man the OP doesn't just want old cRPG back, he just wants a change in our current cRPG to make it less stale, to get player interest back up, to enjoy logging into his high gen characters and having a community excited about something again.  the solution is to not look backward, but to move forward.

Before i even read all that i thought as well that Conquest Mode is the solution. Would be refreshing as well.

XmasRPG was boring as fuck when chadz released it.

Nostalgia is a powerful thing gentlemen.

[Strider]

The tides of cRPG have drifted in the oceans. The gameplay has become a boring waste of time due to unreasonable nerfing to every single aspect of the mod.

Well, I for one, knew absolutely nothing about XmasRPG until 'after' it was over. Shows how much awareness was raised for it huh?

And besides, You played back then I assume? And you still play now? If you lasted that long, it couldn't have been that bad, right?

The current cRPG, has obsolete armours in the market, (plate), and generally anything over 14k. This is because little bitches like Rebelyell over here, who must be a specialist in losing, considering a horse bump seemingly kills him instantly. Talk about Bad-luck Brian, or what?

The current cRPG is just a monotone, no-sense of achievement, grind.

New players - "I'll save up and get plate, *gets it* oh, cant afford it. Fuck this game".
Vanilla players that aren't zeta-males "I'll use my plate, *puts it on* oh can't afford it. Fuck this game."
Post-patch players - "Vanilla was shithouse, and I never played it, so my opinion is about as valid as a retards, who's cave exploring on Mars."

In pre-patch, I had heraldic with surcoat, winged great helm, mail chaussers, mail mittens, palfrey, heavy lance, elite cav shield and +3 long hafted blade.
So, in perspective, I wasn't a tin-can.

AND, that game shat all over this one. And it didn't stop there, oh no. It proceeded to massage it in with the cheeks. Like a good ol' Cleveland Steamer

[Miwiw]

I don't like this suggestion. =))

[Haboe]

Back in the days vanilla was fine. They changed it before everyone had an elephant and tincan. If we go back now you will witness the horror of massive plates on elephants.

I like a noob on a plated charger, but i don't like 50 noobs on 50 plated chargers.

Who cares if everyone was on a plated charger, (which wouldn't happen anyway) since everyone could keep a pike in their back pocket? I used to do it all the time back then. Some baddie would try to couch me, I'd pull out my hidden pike, stop their horse and kill them off the top of it.

You could say the current version of CRPG is "balanced" but it causes the mod to be much less fun than it used to be. It's been dumbed-down to the point where most people min-max the shit out of everything they possibly can. You don't see any crazy builds any more since they are so much less viable. People who play only really give a shit about winning due to the multi. So you get the shit-storm of min-maxed builds and equipment.

Old CRPG was just crazy good fun.

New CRPG is:

1. Cav, cav and more cav.
2. Fully loomed archers that hit like a truck, and run away the rest of the time.
3. 2-hand heroes who hide with xbows for most of the round.
4. Str/plate crutchers with glaives who just backpeddle all day.

When trying to "fix" CRPG it's either made less fun, or they brake something else causing it to be abused by everyone and their mother. I don't even like to spend much time on the forums any more.

Thank god for Blood Bowl.

EXACTLY. And people cry about Plated Chargers and Archers spam in Old CRPG? Well we got instead of SLOW easy to dodge Plated Chargers, +3 Arabs and +3 Destriers with HX or HA on em harassing inf.

And we also got aimbot archers who keeps getting ''miraculously'' headshots from over the map distances.

And melee combat has been so slowed down and dumbed down that 90% of every 2hander, polearm can block anything you throw at em easily. Everyones a 2h hero nowadays.

Face it, it was better back then. When you grinded for a weapon it sure took time but you got to keep it. Time you put into the game was not for nothing. Now you'll need gold and gold and gold.

Besides not everyone would go tincan anyhow eventually. Movement and slower attack speed is what you get for using tincan armor so it's a okay trade-off.

[TurmoilTom]

The devs should just let LLJK run their own old cRPG server like they asked to do a while back. That was, like, the best idea ever.

30str robocop 10 PT 10 PS lets go! Unless you go robocop yourself everything will one hit kill you, yay i also think this is very fun.
