Combat?

[rbodenmann]

I haven't logged in for quite a while. Before I re-install, has the combat been fixed? Is it possible to attack and destroy things on another tribes land? Did they add archery?

Just curious,

Thanks.

Fixed = depends who u ask, my opinion its improved from before.
Other 2 questions the answer is no

Animations and general overall feel have improved alot, desync and damage dealt are still an issue. It takes a long time to kill another player, not sure about animals as havent found any since last patch.

Combat is worse than before. There is another topic already on this, but IMO from my EXP combat currently is crappy at best. I would rather have desync we had before at least it was fun. This new combat makes no sense.

Combat is indeed not finished. Is it better than before? In some regards yes. They need to balance the damage and armor values.
Attack speeds have been changed which brings some balance to the pre-order weapons.
De-sync has seen some improvement but still has a little ways to go before it can be called "good enough".

Overall is combat more enjoyable? Not really, it takes to long to deal any real damage to anything. Parrying isn't really needed at this time with the damage tables the way they are but later it will become a must to stay alive if/when they change up the damage of weapons/damage reduction of armor.

I agree with this.

Krimara about PO weapons, they are still the best, they do more DPS than most weapons (axes, picks etc) but now because of how its working knives and fists are the best weapons by far for DPS, which makes no sense at all. (I can see knives, but not fists at all).

As much as I hate to say it, I do no longer enjoy pvp, hell even hunting takes to long to kill a bear......I made a comment that I could probably take on MrDDT earlier, but now im like....why waste those 30-45mins trying? I mean if people stood directly in-front of each other with out moving and whacking at each other it probably takes a couple minutes to kill person.
