Dash + Battle Cry + dash. long jump any weapon.

@SOC:

You’re right, I don’t want bad changes like removing combo feint to parry and replacing it with a parry in recovery. I don’t want archers to have even more buffs. I don’t want a defensive playstyle in Chivalry. I don’t want Chivalry to shift from reaction skill to strategy thinking completely with almost every engagement. I don’t want claymore to go from alternative greatsword to giant dagger. I remember all the discussion we had in int about “turtle” playstyles and how relieved we were that Chivalry rewards aggressive gameplay. I miss that. I miss feeling challenged by bada’s reaction skills, not challenged by Moose’s crazy 600+ hours of watching his animations in strategic ways in empty servers. While I have Pro Mod for that, it doesn’t offer pub stomping.

You know what changes I wanted? Bug fixes. Not the crap TB has done today. I used to be able to sit down and say “what weapon do I feel like using today?” Now I feel forced and limited to certain weapons all the time because of how the game has changed so much. It went from any weapon can be good and viable in any situation based on your skill to needing a weapon for certain situations and times. That’s boring. I don’t want to play League of Legends and counter pick my enemies. I want to play Chivalry and beat you because I’m that good with longsword, or the pole axe, or the old claymore, or the old brandistock. Not because I happened to pick a weapon that’s good at killing MaAs but sucks against knights. Sure we had things like blunt weapons, but you could still do amazing with grand mace pre-buffs consistently if you were that good. I miss that. You were rewarded for being that good and could go 55-5 with any weapon in any pub game. Heck, I even clutched a ton of clan battles doing 1vs5 at the end. And so did many of my other clan mates.

That was my Chivalry. Now you’re rewarded for being a pussy and waiting. Now there’s little hope without team work. It’s like TB said Chivalry was too fast and fun so they nerfed it but then they go and add the new claymore.

Hey…listen. Do you hear that?..… It’s the sound of no one caring :D

I love this patch.

Chronic feinting - GONE.

Insta-overheading - GONE.

Seems like the people who do not like this are chronic feintfucking overheading vanguards. For you retards threatening to quit, please do. The less exploit abusers the better.

@Substance:

I’m actually rooting for this guy now. I was joking around with him in a server the other day and he was actually playing fairly for the most part, albeit as King Malric. If you’d overwhelm him he’d use his “Frostwave” ability to instakill everyone around him but I didn’t really mind since I haven’t learned that ability yet.

At this point he’s been doing this for so long without any action by Torn Banner or Steam that it’s actually embarrassing for Torn Banner. I’ve heard some story about a server or box being held up in customs or something that has all the magical security superpowers, but that’s a weak excuse.

Unless he’s working with friends that have similar access, he’s ONE dude that can single-handedly ruin the game for entire servers at a time, and he can switch quick and ruin/take down as many as he pleases.

Every second that goes by that this dude is destroying games only reflects on the integrity of Torn Banner as a company/organization.

Oh real nice attitude. No really. “i like this hacker because he’s making TB look like shit and i hate TB so it’s hilarious HAHAHAHAHAH”. You’re one of those this-game-sucks-TB-sucks-but-i-play-it-anyway-cause-i’m-fucking-retarded. Seriously good attitude, laughing that a company is struggling to deal with problems like bilbo faggins and trying to satisy this shitfuck community, which seems to be impossible because you fuckheads are NEVER SATISFIED.

yes. and watch as the knights are feinting a bow-wielding archer and lookdown overheading and ‘magically’ catching up to the archer. Sounds like an average clan server - exploit infested elitists…with a twist!

@Don_Kanaille:

However, can we join as spectators please? Could be incredibly hilarious.

As hilarious it might be, it might also be a useful if high rankers want to give friendly tips to newbies from a spectator point of view.

That aside, i still think FFA (duel) servers are still great for this. I would spend hours in those servers before offical dueling came out. I would get wrecked everytime by high rankers but they gave me tips and helped me out. Still, these low ranked servers are good i guess.

As far as the people complaining about this – I’m sure new players don’t want to join a server and watch a vanguard overhead exploit/chronic feint him to pieces every 10 seconds. If i was new i would want to stay away from those exploiting high levels also.

this game blows now.

community is a steaming pile of shit.

people abusing feint, faster overhead by looking down, and clipping through shields. Any glitch it takes to get to the top people do. Let’s not forget the speed hackers and the laggers to top it all off. i’m glad i only paid 12 dollars for this shit.

@Sir:

I think that feinting is a matter of skill

Thanks

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

oh yes. only the true skilled use feint. it’s funny to see just how skillful they are when they face a shield user. haha

Falchion

Killing a shield user? Getting a headshot as an archer? Just naming examples.

Mine has to be when i beat down an excessive feinter. Nothing is more satisfying…
