it was a russian and a french Guy then, never the less their english was awfull.

Gief looms! 

funny how our cicles of playing and not playing cross  paths:3

srsly now the population is too low to have a propper fight.

[Wiltzu]

Well it doesn't help getting up the population if you leave =D

[Leshma]

There will be always a "population" of ranged lovers. They won't go anywhere. If you look in the past, you'll see that only dedicated melee players stopped playing. Ranged players stick with the mod.

i know i know...   but it doesn't help to have an enraged guy on the server also.

i swear if i see another round end by Veselov or Akbar running around last without even trying to fight for 2 minutes and than die from one simple feint the are dead on spawn instantly!!!

[Hunter_the_Honourable]

That's what doesn't help, even if the melee players by some miracle do beat most of the ranged there is always that one ranged player who is the last alive who will just run away. They know they can't win yet they refuse to drop the bow and arrows and get a melee weapon to even try and put up a fight.

When someone does that I think a large majority get pissed off because there's just no need for it, doing that does nothing but piss people off and make everyone wait longer to spawn.

[Jens_Langkniv]

i can tell you guys that even when i was dedicated ranged i didnt play eu 1 much as compared to eu 2 fails on several accounts.

1. no objektive's

2. often bad maps like open cav rape maps or maps with a town that one team starts much closer too.

3. way to much cav  thats one of the reasons i think for the increased ammount of ranged players.

4. if you die usaly from cav within the 1 minute you have to wait maybe 5 minutes to play again where on siege you have the max 35 seconds wait time.

thats what i think is the reasons, it is for me anyway

that is not a problem anymore if you cant catch a archer today with their increased arrow weight its you own fault for being a str build on battle, str builds only work well on siege

And what about when you get shot from 4 different angles by 6 archers at the start of the round? that's ok because they don't have four legs? or because it takes them slightly longer to get to high ground and head shot people with the easymoderusbow?

Sounds like you just don't like cav. 

EDIT: Im not an str build my build is 21/18 with 6 athletics yet I still can't catch them. Also don't try and say 21 strength to 18 agi is a str build because its roughly even.

Then stop casting teleport and just spawn normally like the rest of us have to.

[Leshma]

We often play really smalls maps when there's like 70 people online...

if you get shot by 4 different angles by 6 archers at start of round then your incredible fast for a ath 6 player cauz then you must be in their spawn a start of round;P ok serious if you get shot by that many archers then they deserve to kill you 6 vs 1? and you exspekt to surive that huh? also if you cant catch them with ath 6 then you in very heavy armor and then its not your job to catch archers but to melee other heavy armor guys let the lighter armored melee builds like me catch them i have no problem what so ever to catch them and that is with roughly 20 in gear weight so stop bitching about archers they aint the problem for eu 1 is dying.

also no i dont hate cav i find them easy to kill i was just listing the problem that might be the cause because many people still dont know how to defeat cav easy.

I wouldn't consider a light kuyak a heavy armor. and if it was 6v1 in melee id have a better chance of winning and even if I don't at-least I would have a chance to kill 1-2 before I die. Archers? nope they just run away even when they have a melee weapon.

Meh either way I don't play EU1 since melee on there became boring... although I never really played EU1 to start unless I wanted to see what class everyone is going to bitch about next.
