    Mounted

    Okay, but see the issue there is that by being infantry you make a conscious decision to not have mobility, to be vulnerable to people who are mounted. Just like someone with a melee weapon is vulnerable to people with ranged weapons or magic. Cavalry/ mounted players took the skills that they...

    Unequip* And they finally added damage reistance stats to mount armor?

    -Stalemates happen, it's not always gonna be "fun". Not every fight will reach the conclusion of a total wipe of either side, even if that's your intention. Sometimes the only goal available to some people is to survive a skirmish so that they can continue about their other goals. -See Above...

    I didn't ignore your argument, I outright refuted it. Your argument is based on comparing cavalry and footies in a vacuum and it's frankly annoying to me that you keep ignoring the various points I've made about countering cavalry properly. Shoot, I'm trying to find the video of the Myrland...

    1: Control schemes are limited by hardware. 2: Momentum already existed, with the exception of hitting the R (to dismount) key causing the mount to stop on a dime. That was busted and should have been fixed ages ago with the R key being disabled if one was not stationary or moving slowly. 3: No...

    People hated it because it was essentially RNG enabled crowd control; The same hate applied to dice rolls out of the saddle via bow attacks because once upon a time everyone carried a bow when they knew 1 in 5 or 1 in 10 shots, even at the lowest damage value, would throw a rider from their...

    You have WAAAAAAY too much faith in SV's capability of coding and "fixing" an AI. Also I like how you prefaced your statement with "a few valiant mounted players who agreed with me" as if it's something noble or moral to enjoy a broken system. The concept could make sense in theory but where...

    I can imagine it, everyone hated it. Horse brain was trash, always was trash, and always will be trash. That's why SV removed it. I'm guessing you're newer and weren't around for that time it did exist. Long story short, everyone hated it.

    You mean the one riddled with RNG mechanics and dicerolls? No thanks, that was pretty trash.

    The topic is entirely subjective. If you've seen one video clip you've seen them all. I know from countless experiences of fighting people in this game that you can't just compare things in a vacuum. The issues come down to group cohesion, preparedness, and skill. If you can't keep your group...

    How arrogant can you be? Badman literally just made a point that his build was similar to my own. :rolleyes: My bad for trying to have a discussion, don't let me interrupt the Footie biased anti-mount rhetorical circle jerk.

    Dude, obviously not everyone agrees with you on every thing and obviously you don't agree with me on everything, but claims like "it's futile to even try to argue against it sic.." it carries the implication that you and your position are objectively "correct" in the matter and neither side is...

    The discussion oftentimes is one sided. I'll admit my bias, however I am doing the best I can to remain reasonable and rational on the discussion, to stay as close to objectivity as possible, and it is a little bit frustrating to see most "anti-mount" people who oftentimes exaggerate the...

    I mean only if your entire goal is to force people to stop playing MC entirely because it's so high risk and player unfriendly, then sure, these would be phenomenal. You're discussing this in bad faith and honestly It's beginning to wear down my patience on this topic. I'm getting to old to...

    There's nothing to "Agree to disagree" about. Horse brain was a cancer, that nobody who actually ever used a horse liked. The only people who put on rose tinted glasses about it are the anti-mount foot-fighter life losers and the mages who got stomped by their natural counter in open plains...

    Nah, Horse brain was an absolute cancer to the entire system and its removal was a blessing that was universally agreed upon. Horse brain was the idiotic system that led to countless people losing control of their horses for no reason because "Horse brain decides to panic" only to ride into...

    You're quoting the time in what, 2014 when they introduced mauls that 1 or 2 shot and they that completely nerfed, along with a blanket nerf against all mounted melee weapons with that ridiculous 2x strength req multiplier increase while mounted nonsense? I mean that completely nullified most of...

    Your complaint seems to stem from a fundamental misunderstanding of certain systems. 1: The Arctic Lyk is the Bull Horse subspecie of Lyks, it had the strongest "natural armor/resistance" and the highest HP pool with I think the exception of Stalker Lyks if anyone can correct me, since my...

    Mounted

    Your issues with mounts as a whole had everything to do with the issues of the breeding system and allowing Bull Horses (the breed with the highest HP) to be imbued with speed and dex stats from the other breeds of horses. It has NOTHING to do with mounted combat and everything to do with the...

    I disagree, the playerbase ruined the first game. You don't roll in as infantry with the expectation to be able to stand up against someone with greater mobility if you don't equip yourself to deal with it properly, which most everyone did not.
