fix pikes?

[Sir_Ironlake]

Instead of an anti cav and almost ranged weapon, they are the ultimate close combat tool... or at least as effective as a short sword.

Doesnt matter if I pass the point by half the shaft, am facehuging my opponent, he can still pike me for max dmg. Or can be max effective with it in a room which is so small the pike couldnt be fit in it.

Just make the thing colide with surfaces already...

Block down.

Which pike ???


I never could duel anyone with the 3m pike so if someone can teach me how to do that. I tried all the lolstabbing I know but I never hit my opponent because he's too close.

With the standard long spear, however, it is piss easy to do (but still quite easy to block too).

[Apsod]

Yeah, the block can`t even block.

To defeat a guy with a pike block down untill you are close and kill him.

[Pellegrino]

Pike are too fast... have u ever seen a medieval soldier fight in close combat with a pike?? Pike are anti cav and this is ok but, must be slow not fast like now!

[justme]

i would love to see how are u with pikes..

[Lanic0r]

same issiue with 2h. they spin around without touching you with the tip. i wonder how the box of weapon looks. maybe they can cut the weaponbox?

[Yaron]

animation glitches can't be fixed ...

Also: This is a game and games are all about balance and not realism. Live with it.
If you lose as a infantry against a pikeman in close 1vs1 combat, you seriously doing it wrong.

Let me guess. You don't play the game very much.

Colliding with surfaces(ground) is planned with WSE and it will create epic lulz and rage. I'm looking forward to it.

It is true, if you lose as inf against a guy with a weapon that can not block, you are not doing it right.

That's great. It will remove that retarded looking ground hitter 

[Ujin]

Block down and occasionally block up. The only pikeman that  manages to give me at least some trouble in a 1v1 is Craftybadger, but he still has less chances to win simply because of his weapon. Like people have said above, you're doing it wrong.
