@Xili84 I just watch your videos. I can relate, that’s what it’s was like for me last week when using a bow. I was only being a ‘cowardly archer’ for the sake of unlocking everything, I’ve given up on that class path for now as I was sick of shooting my own team, even when I lined up a shot that I thought couldn’t possibly hit one of my own. it still did.

While I admit the Javelin needs to spool up quicker, as right now the throwing axe is flat out better, OP is severely missusing the Longbow. The Longbow is the machinegun of his game, and fares better rapid firing into groups of enemies at closer ranges. It is only the Brazier that encourages the long range (and wrong) playstyle of the Longbow, and IMO, should be replaced with something else.

1.) Free hacks were even working in beta. This is because Chiv 2 pretty much has one of the (if not the) worst Anti cheat in the industry. It might as well be non-existent. (aka EAC). Additionally, the engine isn’t new by any standards, thus adapting injection style “hacks” for Chiv 2 is also easy.

2.) Whilst I have not personally observed HP modification like the OP is claiming the cheating is pretty rampant. Perhaps even 1-2 per match isn’t that much of an exaggeration. Some are simply not that noticeable AND since the game does not use…say… Hitscan hit detection like some games (CS and most of CoD), it is more difficult to spot. Ontop of that, Chiv 2 has the hit detection (netcode) of a 2001 title… NOT a 2021 title. It is VERY poor.

3.) The most common cheats active in Chiv 2 are:

Block bot. This one is pretty noticeable. Ever surrounded someone with your team mates and they block every strike, even from the rear? Stam injection (CE). Also fairly noticeable. Someone just holding block indefinitely, unable to retaliate but also never loses stam and you (and in many cases the multitude of others hitting them) run out of stam and that is when they kill you all. This is usually used in conjunction with the next one. Max Init. Pretty self explanatory. Clipping Cancel of animation but not action. Also pretty obvious. Enemies that bandage instantly without animation. Enemies who cancel to parry your strike but you still magically take damage every time (and they block your hit)

Unfortunately the fix did not work. We even tried going more advanced settings and applying the inbound rules to all the ports. But no luck.
We still need help

It dose seem to only count the ballista kills I can confirm. Just got the platinum trophy for chivalry 2. Thanks for the help.

@Mootley77 said in 2 handed weapon blocking is too powerful.:

2 handed weapon do 3/4 of your health in 1 hit, 1 handed do 1/4 with exactly the same blocking efficiency

Depending on certain weapons against certain classes, this can be true, but its an exception and not a rule. Like comparing the maul against the knife.

Those are the current damage stats for all the weapons and the damage modifiers for the different classes. I think youll be surprised on just how much damage alot of the 1 handers are doing, especially the warhammer. And its really their speed WITH the high damage thats the problem. You work in jabs/kicks and just overwhelm people. Some of them have a very deceiving overhead attack too. I think that some might even be “stealing” initiative, where you land an attack when you technically shouldnt be “allowed” to.

1 handers are all I use, for both team objective and duels, I dont even bother with the shield because it blocks some of your view.

@buderburg No you cant change any of kind binds right now. You could go into setting on console and remap so keys that way but its not the same as changing games controls its changing controller setting if that make any sense.

Any time friend

I dont mind the AB, actually. What I mind is the fact you can actually CHANGE TEAMS in the middle of a freaking match!

Look, if 10 people quit they are replaced with AI, correct? If that is the case, there is no reason for AB…

Like you said, the match will end quickly…

I even cant do any character customization at all… will they release the patch for this bug?

Also in on psn not sure if you guys are

I’ve noticed some odd stabs getting through my blocks sometimes, especially with the spear. Doesn’t happen a lot so hard to determine if it’s just getting around my block or a netcode issue.

…

I have the same issue both on ps4 and ps5.

@MattRat I mainly play Duels. So, when I see an archer using a bow, I recklessly charge them.
But, in normal modes? I try not to recklessly do anything. I try to stay on the objective, and if I see more than 2 enemies, I back up and wait for my team. As for who is “most hated”? Archers, definitely, haha. Not in a mean way, I just try to focus them if I can, to help my team not die to arrows. Ooh, also, anyone spamming slash gets targeted by me. Jab and stab, kick and special.

If you don’t have the time or will to back up your claim with evidence,
nobody has the time or will to take you seriously.

I totally agree the author of this thread, those two classes are kind of inferior.
When I discovered ambusher subclass I was like “this is going to be my favorite one”.
But… I quickly understood that playing it was a disadvantage. The thing is stealth is not very “Chivalry 2” and attacking ppl in the back often mean offering your own back to the bad guys… And die. And die even more quickly as your light weapons won’t allow you to sustain a fight against multiple opponents. I guess it should be reworked, make it more evasive, more powerful when backstabbing and give it a true special item.
Concerning engineer, I agree, it must get better items. Barricades are quite easy to destroy and the beartrap effect is too light.
I wouldn’t say that it needs more damage, but maybe a mechanic like in R6 siege, the guy trapped should wait for a friend to free him or bleed to death…

@Skindiacus I would totally spend another 20-40$ if the devs made it a thing! I hear you though.

I have posted on his ridiculous thread, more ridiculous than my 4 word long thread

Because there is much number of archers, a front is often crushed.

In addition, the person going to the designation point decreases.
