Maybe FIX THE GAME?!

[Bannaz1]

Don't worry lads, the patch wasn't perfect. The fact that the game is unplayable and everyone can keep permo x5 and manually balanced is only a very small problem.

[Corsair831]

It is with the heaviest heart and most solemn of words that I

apologize for the recent balance changes. However, words cannot express the deep regret I feel in trying to address player complaints about ranged balance. Truly, for twelve hours of one day to be rendered utterly wasted by poor team balance is tantamount to the most heinous of crimes, as you, my dear players, found your lives in shambles because the teams in an online game you play were unfair. The fault lays on my shoulders, as I let my vigilance, my everlasting watch slip last night, when I succumbed to my greedy desires, and slept, after being awake for two days.

How dare I assume to stand upon the shoulders of giants, and work to improve the mod, to improve the quality of the gameplay, to improve the enjoyment of players in this game. I now see that my attempts to fix the distribution of range between teams in cRPG were misguided, and for naught, as by doing so, I dared to make mistakes while introducing code to a complex and convoluted method. The failure of my code, and my failure to fix it immediately is a direct representation as my failure as a developer, and as a human being. This sorrow I feel permeates my entire soul, my being, as my decision to spend my own time to work on this mod for no reward other than the reward of learning has only caused woe, for the code I write is not perfect, and sometimes has unfortunate errors.

Not only this, but my heart is with you noble 2H heroes and cavalrymen, whose very existence is threatened by the brutally overpowered class that is ranged. It is now clear to me that those who tread the mortally bankrupt path of ranged deserve not to do damage to any. For a projectile to damage one who solely dedicates their build to maximum performance in melee is unacceptable. It is undeniable that you are all gods in the realm of melee. How dare the filth that play ranged presume to counter you, with your balanced builds, medium armor and lack of shields!

The past cannot be forgiven, so I must move on to the future, where my path is clear. I shall delete the accounts of those who play ranged, give all 2h heroes and cavalry players 10 loom points each as compensation for the emotional damage they suffered at the cruel hands of ranged players. Not only that, but I shall revert the team balancer to a state where classes are not balanced between teams, and where one team can utterly destroy another team for an entire map straight, which is truly an enjoyable experience for all involved.

Once again, I apologize for not devoting myself fully to work on cRPG, and produce patches that perfect, without errors, as is expected of me. I am your humble servant, my will is yours to command. Never again shall I make a change without ensuring that each and every player wholly supports that change. Never again shall I trust that my feeble, weak mind can come up with solutions that will improve the playing experience of this mod. Never again shall I indulge in my own personal needs, such as sleeping, or attending college. Finally, never again shall I assume others to be at least somewhat grateful of the fac

t that cRPG is alive, and that someone is working on it.

Don't lose heart Professor, you're honestly doing a very good job and we're very grateful

All that's happened here is that that you've learned the same thing all cRPG devs learn sooner or later,

"Never, ever. Under any circumstance. Listen to Panos."

(There's a very good reason he has 30 banned accounts    )

[Casul]

100% of the players bitching about current cRPG are players who have abondoned the game themself when it was about do die and just came back the moment we revived it.

You literally leeched out what the devs have managed to do but you still think you have the rights to nag about it. Thats like not going to vote on elections but bitch about the results.

Instead of writing a(nother) suggestive thread and open up a discussion showing that you actually care about it, you once in a month crawl out of your hole just to post a complaining thread.

Thanks for the input, that will surely help and save the mod. Good deed done!

[Jony]

Whenever i'm in the game most of the range are alts. So you should blame yourself for the amount of the range on the battle server

[Tindel]

Are you people unable to see patterns and cause and effect? Have you already forgotten why most people left CRPG in the first place?
We used to have hundreds of players every night, so many the servers couldnt handle it.
That was the only real problem back in the days, and no one wanted to adress it.
They just wanted to mess around and tinker to see how shit worked.
Everytime someone new joined the team, they broke something else.

I endured devs tinkering with siege until no one plays the gamemode anymore.
Conquest mode and shitty maps really killed the community.
We all stopped playing because of nerfs and changes and patches and maps.
90% of the people i knew back then left for more or less the same reasons im trying to communicate.

I heard chadz failed with his new game for exacly the same reasons i am complaining about.

And yes i should have written a nicer post, but when i for once have a weekend free to play.
Guess what? Some new guy is fucking uo stuff again.....

Welcome to 5 years ago and nothing has changed.

[Panos_]

People who have never gave anything to the community, blame me for the broken balance...

Really, Corsair?


What have you ever gave to c-rpg?

Nothing.


Do u want a shortlist of the things I have given?

 - 3 jousting tournaments, with MW items as prizes, that belonged to me.
 - 1 huge 1v1 tournament, with MW items again as prizes, some were mine, some were donated.
 - Multiple suggestions of mine were implemented to the mod (Name changes to armours, more 0 shield skill shields.
 - Multiple suggestion threads of new armours & gear, that Ive spent hours searching for in various forums.

Hell, even today I have made some suggestions that are in consideration.

Decrease of the respec time, thats me.
Exchange on the marketplace, even though I wanted 1 free per week, the devs already suggested that soon you will be able to buy one for an X amount of gold.


Seriously, corsair, youre trash, I have given more to c-rpg, with all my "30" accounts, than you and your shitty clan will ever give.
Want someone to blame? Blame the robin hood wannabes who literally destroy the fun of c-rpg, not me, aint your scapegoat.


The only thing you are known for, is your retarded alt, were you roleplay a cow. Fucking stupid.

I expressed my feelings about how balance team and the deve ruined the game in the following thread;

[Torben]

Welcome to 5 years ago and nothing has changed.

except that the game was dead for several months  - with no players at all - and prof came along and fixed it,  reviving it.

Welcome to 5 years ago and nothing has changed.

I'm sorry to break it to you, but the game is never going to be like that again - at least not until Bannerlord (lol implying there will be cRPG for bannerlord). Time can't be set back to 2011/2012 where the mod is fresh again; many people have long since moved on. Professor's work on the mod literally brought it back from the dead with a solid playerbase, with some of the fastest and most frequent updates I've ever seen in my (admittedly, comparatively short) time spent on cRPG. Usually I'm the first to bark at the moon bitch at the devs, but not this time. It genuinely makes me sad to see Professor - a legitimately magnanimous guy - driven nuts by some retards spouting off useless autistic screeches nonstop.

[Oberyn]

Can't it? You have forgotten the face of your father.

Looks like current devs are finding out just how entitled and whiny the cRPG playerbase is and always has been. No matter what you do someone is going to go "REEEE YOU RUINED THE GAME FOREVER" (Which is why a wipe is the only answer and you should not listen to any whining about MUH LOOMs and MUH LEVELS, ever).

[Larvae]

I appreciate your work Prof,my suggestion to bring all back to 2012 version,was thaught as suggestion to make it prolly easier for u,like just revert it untill u are able to fix things,without letting ur RL suffer,as i saw the low pop on eu1 yesterday.

no more and no less.

Welcome to 5 years ago and nothing has changed.

Would you still be playing the mod if it didn't get updated? I, for one, wouldn't. Are you really that delusional that you think people will come back and play if no new changes are being made? Professor's continuation on the mod is exactly why people got attracted to come back and play. He's doing a great job to revive the mod which became a success. We're getting weekly updates (mostly), and he's a one-man team doing all the code by himself. You should thank him, he's the reason the mod is alive now. (Also, credits to chadz for fixing the patcher to make this possible) Appreciate the time you can get to play cRPG until Bannerlord comes out (assuming it ever comes out).

Edit: I actually care more about it having players, not that it gets frequent updates. But bugfixes were needed to revive the mod, which it did.
