Actually nothing wrong with reverse overheads.

The number one problem with vanilla Chivalry is the lack of first hit flinch.

So you have like what 5 hours played?

Archers are easymode to dodge since 90% of people playing them are shit and are easily one-shot

>>323531006
>>323531117

Not OP, but archers are most certainly overpowered. The primary mod used for competitive play nerfed them into the ground for a good reason. They're utterly braindead to use and they're incredibly effective if the player is at all competent.

>>323531641

They bother everyone. They contribute nothing to the objectives and they're capable of killing the best players instantaneously with no hope of retribution.

No. They're massively OP and unfun, but that's stupid.

>Firepots are AoE only. No ground DoT

Unless i'm misinterpreting this, that IS how they currently are. You get hit with it, you take damage, outside of being a retard and walking back into it.

>remove 180 spin overheads

Reverse overheads are shit, I agree, but you can't remove spinning. Mordhau is removing them with a pretty smart system however, so props to them. Reverses aren't some unblockable kill move, however. They just take a long time to get used to.

>>323531006

Also, pic related. I mainly play FFA, i'm an east coast player and I was one of the Slasher pre-alpha testers. Props to anyone who can guess who I am.

That's literally describing every class in the game

>>323532654

>That's literally describing every class in the game

Nope. Every other class can be countered. Whether you win or lose against an archer is entirely dependent on how retarded the archer is. It has nothing to do with your skill.

I dont care about firepots in general besides the fact 30% of the time you get lit on fire next to where the fire animation is burning. Like the detection is off or some shit.

>>323531531
>some guy reks your ass and buttflusters you.

>>323532819

The detection IS off alot of the time. It's fucky.

>>323532767

Yeah, that's the main issue with archers. Whether or not you die to an archer has nothing to do with what you did. Sure, you can dodge and shit, but if you get hit, what could you have possibly done? It's all (influenced) luck, and considering that, they do FAR too much damage. No one wants to be hit across the map with maul damage.

There's 4 classes, same as in the alpha and beta. Also, "mechanics feel worse, everything just felt worse" is a great argument. Very concise and specific, and not at all generalizing without explaining anything.

The game is infinitely better in its current state than its early days.

The reason no one plays it is because of faggots who do 360 yolo spins with polearms and shit. It doesn't feel at all like fighting in a block - stab - dodge type of gameplay, it's just a clusterfuck of stupid mechanics abuse by autists who've played 900 hours.

The problem with this game is that every class have like 2-3 viable weapons of all the weapons they have. MAA? Better take norse or HW then
Knight? Better take SoW, messer or Daxe then
Vanguard? Better take claymore,zwei or brandi then

This is untrue. Almost every weapon in Chivalry is viable. Few are straight-up better in every way to their contemporaries.

>>323533582

You're an idiot who needs to get good. The game's upper level play looks weird, I get it, but it's also very deep with a high skill-ceiling. Saying it's shit because you don't wanna get into that is fucking retarded.

>>323533804
No thanks, I'm not interested in playing beyblades.

>>323533804
>Almost every weapon in Chivalry is viable
If thats true then why are most high class faggots 95% of the time taking SoW and feinting the fuck out of each other.

>>323533896
And you don't have to be, but saying that it is outright BAD because of that is incredibly stupid. Not being your cup of tea =/= objectively bad.

>>323533980

SoW is one of the few standouts, and even then it's not objectively better. Longsword is longer (duh) and the Messer has better drags + more damage. In duels, yeah, most knights who aren't afraid of feinting are gonna use a SoW, but in TO and shit? You'll see a wider variance.

>>323534009
Considering every month where it doesn't have a sale it loses about 10-20% of its players, chivalry is dying as is. It is objectively bad, and the shitty mechanics are a big part of why no one sticks around.

>>323534074
Too bad LS and Messer are practically made useless in Mercs which is what all the high rankers plays mostly and it comes down to SoW stab feinting.

Chivalry has been around for 3 years and has almost ALWAYS had at LEAST between 1k and 2k players at any given time. It's not thriving certainly, but saying it's dying is untrue.

Point is, however, Bannerlord and Mordhau when?

>>323534276

I don't think it looks retarded, and saying it's bad because you don't like the way it looks is what is actually retarded, which is what he did.

Not that anon, but I feel like the core gameplay mechanics of block/strike/stab/overhead/feint/dodge are deep enough to carry the game and make it enjoyable by itself. Maybe I need to "git gud", but unlike Melee or something, I feel like the base game is good enough to be carried without advanced exploits, and would genuinely be a better game if it wasn't for all the stuff you see high tier players doing.

>>323534394
>Im gonna play a medieval fighting game

This isn't bad? Jesus christ, do they lace the kool aid with cocaine?

>>323534450

Nah, I feel you and I certainly don't like reverses either. However, basic dragging I think is a fundamental part of the game and shouldn't be taken out in any circumstance (not that it could without changing the actual gameplay).

Mordhau is going to be removing reverses, so there's that.

>>323534495

Stay mad scrub. Go play Mount and Blade if you want muh realism.

My biggest issue with Chivalry is the recovery time between blocking an enemy hit between classes. A Knight should be slow in it's speed and attack, but does heavy amounts of damage, but if a Man-At-Arms blocks a Knight's attack, Man-At-Arms should have enough time to hit the Knight, instead the Knight has enough time to block again.

Another one is there is no communication or team play at all, I've seen more teamwork in Battlefield games, and that's saying something.

>>323534621
No need to be upset you're playing a game for autists.

>>323534675

>if a Man-At-Arms blocks a Knight's attack, Man-At-Arms should have enough time to hit the Knight

What do you think this is, parrying in Dark Souls? Blocking strikes is a fundamental part of the game and VERY easy to do. If you could just get free hits off of every parry, the game would be fucking retarded.

>>323534675
Make an Excel table of the delay between each player's input, and the desired 'time-for-block', and you'll find that the delays become unacceptably long for this game.

Then what's the point of Man-At-Arms? Man-At-Arms is supposed to be quick in everything, but light armor and damage, if a heavily armored Knight with a Warhammer can block every attack, then the Knight is unstoppable, therefore unbalanced.

>>323529065
Remove friendly fire from archers

>>323534675

>Man-At-Arms should have enough time to hit the Knight, instead the Knight

In what universe would that be balanced? MaA is already the best 1v1 class in the game.

>>323535160

No, just no. Reverses are shit, and this is coming from someone with 1460 hours in the game. Are they some unblockable end all exploit move? No, of course not. But the small amount of depth they add to the combat isn't worth how entirely fucking stupid they are and I definitely won't miss them when Mordhau releases.

>>323535219

You're speaking from the position of either an idiot or someone who doesn't understand the very fundamentals of the game.

What's the deal with knights swinging mauls and like, moving their whole upper body around in retarded ways so you can never hit them but they always hit you, no blocking just fucking spinning around, up and down and cleaving the shit out of me.

I've encountered like 3 people who do it and i can usually focus and 1v1 but it's really obnoxious, either its some retard with high sensitivity just rolling his mouse around while holding the attack button it seems like a hack.

>>323535519

Sensitivity plays no part in how fast you turn while swinging. There's a cap on how fast you can turn. What your opponent is doing is a mixture of dragging and reverses. Look it up.

>>323535586

>Dragging

Sad the entire meta revolves around an exploit. Probably why I quit

>>323535968

An exploit that's explained in the fucking tutorial tips on loading screens and is hardwired into the gameplay? Yeah, roger that. Totally an exploit.

>>323536008
To be fair the tutorial tips about dragging only showed up way later in the games lifetime.Tthe exploit was already in the game and removing it would probably cause a mighty uproar with people quitting chiv forever. I played for 1500 hours and the Chiv community is the most toxic ever filled with entitled babies.

>>323536450

Out of all the problems, you think dragging is the worst?

>>323535519

Bend backwards, use overheads. The maul has a unique property wherein it causes your character to bend back further than usual.

>>323529065
>complains about archers

Surest sign of a Chivalry shitter, probably a Vantard

>>323536450

That's because removing dragging would require you to completely overhaul the gameplay and make it where your swing only does damage for an VERY small amount of time or implement held blocks like in Mount and Blade.

Basically, without the freeform swings and dragging, it'd just be a shitty knockoff.

>>323536510
Certainly not, I'm not that guy you replied to before but I was just saying how dragging only showed up later in the tips as a guide to help new players as removing such an exploit so widely embraced by the veterans would cause most people to quit the game so they made they exploit into a feature.

It's quake 3 all over again.

HOW TO BE A GOOD ARCHER:

Are they spinning around and twisting like gumby on a bad day?

No - Shoot them in the head
Yes - Aim for their cock, it's too small to flail around

Did they get in melee?

No - Congrats
Yes - Spam left click while sprinting in a circle around them, preferably with a dagger or scimitar

I quit the game when I saw someone parry a maul with a dagger.

>>323536792

Weapon choice:

Do you want to actually try?

Yes - Longbow
No - Heavy Crossbow
THE BATTLE'S THIS WAY GORGEOUS - Heavy Javelin

Chivalry Voice-Command Tier List:

1. Agatha Archer
2. Mason Vanguard
3. Mason Knight
4. Agatha Knight = Mason Man-at-Arms
5. The rest.

>>323537171

I'd put the Agatha Knight on top along with the Agatha archer, but other than that bretty gud list.
