Game Development: Approaches to Combat

[loftar]

Why did you GPL the client in the first place when you don't backport the good stuff?

There's surely a place for customization that isn't objectively better or worse, but rather subjectively so?

IMO we're wasting too much time on combat
yes i know it is broken and needs to be fixed but 3 weeks just for combat?

I love the changes to combat. old combat is boring and reminds me of rock paper scissor.

Look, Anyone who has ever read my posts knows that combat and PVP are not my thing. But if they ARE going to revamp combat into something properly engaging and approachable? 3 weeks seems FAST to me.

Then again, I could be having a sarcasm illiteracy moment here.

i think we need to get rid of everything about the whole system (cars and stuff) keep defence and attack bars and bring back legecy attacks and stances
i think this would fix 400000000% of issues

I cannot tes the new combat system as of yet, but will you people stop suggesting a system that takeas a collage degree to use? That is how its sounding. O keep imaging people with a sword and a barrel of water over there head. Calm down and see how it goes a bit? Let it be some what simple in some areas so others past those that kill there friend/random people for sport have a chance to learn it.

This.

I know this is not directly related with the current system, but have you ever considered some kind of system with auto-attack, where moves are only used every once in a while for particular effects?

I still have warm feelings for the combat system of dark age of camelot
