Love how you quoted that bit only. I said I was against a cav nerf, but from previous experiences, I know that you have to play for more than half an hour to make something out of a completely new patch.

When you see someone laying dead on the ground, do you wait a few days to make a better opinion?

NO, dead means dead, simple as that.

nerfing is the one thing that destroys games, you nerf one item and guess what? you have to nerf the other to balance it out.
SO STOP NERFING THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE GAME

{spoiler}its like the story of the boy who snuck down stairs to eat some of his mothers birthday cake. when he took a bite out of one side, he noticed it was no longer symmetrical so he took a bite out of the other end but this still caused the cake to be uneven. this kept going until there was no cake left! (cake is the players, boy is the developers{/spoiler}

but the cake is a lie

Cav is broken.
And what about HA. I know we all hate them but how can you be HA now? Can't.

Good riddance. 

But I suppose horse archers being gone for good is just wishful thinking...

so then... the chadz is a lie?

im not one for complaining about nerfs or changes to the mod but if i was a new person coming into this mod, i enjoyed playing cav, wanted to pick it up in this and then had this kinda first impression i would /wrists and uninstall. Doesn't make sense, isn't balanced and the person(s) behind it are probably to pussy to give a logical reason why. I can only hope that it was an oversight and will be tended to via hotfix.

One of the devs *cougshicough* decided that it would be a good idea to roll back to one of the Warband Multiplayer Beta versions of how lancing worked.

No no noooo.
chadz is the mother.
Cake = players = lies.
Or something...

Cav was op as fuck. A half decent cavguy could easily get a score of 10-1 with a rouncey.

a half decent ninja could easily get 5-1 with an unbuffed katana

A half-decent anybody could get a half-decent k/d...

And one good archer can easily defeat anywhere from one to a handful of cavalry on his own. Add in a pike and you might as well just not use the horse in the first place.

Cavalry has a place as the hammer in that old and useful tactic, but that does not make it overpowered. Especially not in a random battle or siege where everyone and their mother kills horses like it gave you a trophy and free ice-cream.

Master of the obvious or jedi

unbuffed katana? what are you talking about?

And one good archer can easily defeat anywhere from one to a handful of cavalry on his own.

Of course, but he cant do this with a hunting bow.
