One way or another it was one of the causes for players losses. Some came back some didn't.

Chagan probably found a better game to enjoy, I simply can't play other games. Otherwise I wouldn't be here. Always was telling people how I won't buy Bannerlord, but truth to be told with Bannerlord at least I know what I'm getting. chadz's game seems so distant atm, not sure will they be able to pull off melee combat right.

No, no, no. Totally opposite! Mass ranged way worse than mass cav.

Yeah I agree, also they ride with their arrows in left hand rather than quiver. Imagine holding 20 arrows in your bow hand...
I was just using it to illustrate that HA can fire fairly quickly.

Also what's the poundage on the bow they are using?  How much damage is it doing to someone with armor on? 

And bagge for crpg president.  Ranged counter ranged.  Shielders and cavalry can kind of counter ranged (if used in conjunction with teamwork of other players).  The problem is that there is a terrible balance system on the public servers.  Yes, I said it, PUBLIC servers.  They are public servers, not a place for clans to stomp the randoms.  Class balance should be the way teams are balanced (doesn't need to be 100% balanced).

Servers used to be public, but then some smartass decided to implement banner balance. That smartass implemented many things and I must say it's much better with him around than without.

Not sure what exact poundage these guys are using, but I've seen them up to 110lbs. I reckon best irl HA Kassai must use one of those!

Agreed we need events.


No more of these stupid duel tournaments either. Egos are big enough in cRPG.


We also need a 1-2 hour AMA with item balance team....
PK is back

PK is a collection of elites from throughout modern and ancient history. Giants of Calradia individually, as a group these gods of combat shatter all expectations and ascend to a higher plain of victory that only a few have seen before.

They need to try bring back the mode where you build the defenses as you play and as people get kills/gold more of their own equipment gets unlocked.

Could be a lot of fun. As people get better gear the other team will have to gank them to stop them powering onto full plate.

Perhaps the mode could give no gold only xp and cost say 1k per round... I don't know just spit balling.

Seriously though, it's the same old game from 2010! It's 4 years fucking old, and it's a mod for a 4 year old game that is more or less a rehash of an 8 year old game!

It's basically a miracle it's lasted this long.

Reading this thread just strengthens me in my decision to quit Crpg for good...

Well who to blame?
In my opinion its not just a single cause, but the causes have added up over time....

- getting bored by the game
- beeing frustrated with the nerfing and buffing lottery of weapons and armor
- lack of decent maps in map rotation

The fighting system was and still is one of the best I have experienced (compared to similar games) - especially the speed of the game was fascinating me.
But that has changed over the time - the game felt rather slow and has lost its unique fluency.
This unique fighting system was the main reason for me to keep playing and to overlook the other shortcomings (mentioned above) but without it....there isn't much left to stay for.
