If your fun is ruined by archers and cavalry, you're playing the wrong game.

Check out Chivalry, they don't have cavalry.

"Wahhhh 2 out of the 3 classes this game has are ruining my fun, wahhhh"

I play cRPG because it has a melee system like no other game

I don't see what the big deal for people is with having a Melee server. It's just an alternative. You're not forced to play in it. If it is as bad as some claim then it would die and be removed.

It did die, and it was removed.  The solution to your problem is internal, not external.  Look within yourself young padawan.

Like Huseby said, already happened. It came, it failed, it went.

Zaalback tried hosting his own Melee server but was never accepted to the official servers recently. Nothing wrong with making one of the empty servers to Melee only? Wouldn't hurt anyone.

It would hurt yourself and your ability to overcome obstacles and adapt to changing conditions.

We had a melee only server running a while back, I'll have to check with our secret provider if we can get it back up for a bit  :)

I dont share his opinion and I think the games charm is in all the classes screwing eachother over. Melee only is superboring and lame. And siege is a good provider of more closeup fighting, when Battle isnt. But yea I agree that why not host a meleeonly server to those who only want to play melee. Not gonna affect me anyway. Buuuuuuut ofcourse the sad truth really is that it died. The irony was never more painful when the forums where filled with "QQ archers and cav ruin this mod" threads while the meleeonly server was like a desert almost 24/7.

So I think the real problem isnt the haters, but just finding the playerbase for it.

The first youtube video that comes up shows the guy hovering his mouse of "Archer" and he selects his melee guy, an xbow-man runs infront of him... LOL

What about a ranged only server? Or a cavalry only server?

I still think there should be a CRPG version of the scoutzknivez maps in counterstrike. Low gravity, hunting crossbow/dagger/tunic only.

irl something shorted on the shuttle and laika overheated and died within a few hours of liftoff and for a brief while one could look up to the stars and see a light shooting across the sky that was actually a warm dog corpse slingshoting about the earth at thousands of miles per hour which was arguably humanity's greatest achievement so far

That's a great idea! It would cut down on the horsebump arrowfun that has made me wail with despair and go back to duel servers on Native. I also have a little joke for you all.

A ranged player and a cav player walk into a bar. There is no counter. A melee player walks into a bar. The bar is empty because it's a melee only bar and everyone else is playing ranged or cav.

My problem with melee only is that the absence of both cavalry and ranged allows people to all roll with the same feggit builds which have no real disadvantages in a melee only server, high AGI 2h. Other arbitrary rules like no pikes/longspears and no mauls basically just creates an environment where Swedish/German 14 year old 2h scrubs circlewank at each others lolfeints or call each other noobs all the time.

Which isn't a bad thing neccessarily, create a scrub reservation just like EU 4 is our retard reservation. That way we keep EU 1 nice and tidy.
