so when can we expect patch?

Dec 2010

Siege
Siege mode is open for discussion. Right now I have some ideas but would like to see what everyone thinks. Below are just ideas and none of them are planned on being added in just yet.
-Ladders added in
-Lower construction material for siege equipment
-Breakable walls like in Strat
-Longer rounds
-New maps made specifically for these changes
Ultimately I'm trying to adjust siege to be a mix of a strategus battle and the GK servers on native(obviously no classes will ever be added). Need some feedback and some new ideas.

DO ANY OF THIS AND I'LL TUG YOU OFF while MEANMUGGING YOU STRAIGHT IN THE EYE WITH GLEE.

Please dupre do something about ranged. EU side feels terrible because of ranged. I put my hopes in that patch.

Give those bundle of stickss upkeep. FUCKING UNBELIEVABLY HIGH UPKEEP.

It's ridiculous to play something extreme op and still do shittons of gold.

And btw, can we do a ranged limit on the servers? More than 40% is simply unplayable.

I can't fucking play that anymore.

Ranged counters ranged on maps with lots of places to hide behind, like trees and walls with no objective besides "KILL KILL KILL".  If it was an open field map with objectives, ranged is a support class who are less important than infantry.  But ain't nobody got time for open field maps, everyone wants counter-strike maps to pew pew and hide behind a wall.  So the more ranged you have, the more people want to spec or switch to a ranged alt to counter them (or log off). 

Hard nerfs to classes are a bad idea (IMO), as are class restrictions.  The problem is the maps and the lack of decent objectives.

Clearly has a huge weener, so I'll help when your hand gets tired.  Shit double post, take away my forum contributor card.

[BlackxBird]

why would a restriction be bad? Oh and I did not say they should nerf it, fucking give them extreme upkeep

[pepejul]

WHY KEEP PLAYING THEN ?



(I admire devs who still work on this game... I really admire you guyz !)

Get a shield

I was playing with shield. Made that screenshot when with shield. You just can't shield all of them or fight them with shield unless you're 1h

Ranged counters ranged on maps with lots of places to hide behind, like trees and walls with no objective besides "KILL KILL KILL".  If it was an open field map with objectives, ranged is a support class who are less important than infantry.  But ain't nobody got time for open field maps, everyone wants counter-strike maps to pew pew and hide behind a wall.  So the more ranged you have, the more people want to spec or switch to a ranged alt to counter them (or log off). 

Later I indeed took an arbalest and steel bolts and kept shooting in their general direction with 1wpf. Kinda worked, I just don't want to fight ranged with ranged, it's not how it's supposed to be done. Fin changed map to pub brawl later which worked too. Map part is true, however a direct fist into their asses wouldn't be a bad idea imho.

cataphract horse dies after 3-4

The real problem with ranged is that at this moment there is no other class that can counter it, when a courser dies with 1.5 arrows and a charger with 4, cavalry is pretty much useless and tries to avoid attacking ranged.

And whats even worse, is that the ranged on your team is focusing other targets rather than enemy ranged, unless is pretty much necessary to attack each other.


Instead of nerfing ranged, I suggest giving a buff at the HP and Armour of the horses, remove most maps that have high hills/mountains/one way roofs etc and for the love of god, if you are a melee player, STOP AIDING THE RANGED OF YOUR TEAM. I rarely do and I`m satisfied with myself.
