Fayanth Posted June 3, 2002 Share Posted June 3, 2002 I may be the minorty here on this one. IMHO backstab etc.. is NOT overpowered for a few reasons. Its easy as hell to defend against. Running backward swining (ass fighitng) people are realy easy to kill. The only problem I see with backstab is the pull + backstab. but even then there is more stuff raven can do the fix this w/o touching the dmg on backstab. there are more options than losing the move all together. Do I duel? Yes. Do I play ctf and ffa? Yes. Am I a noob? No. Do i play fair? Yes. Do I beat the crap outa assfighters? of course. Anyways, props to raven for a GREAT game.

Aerys Posted June 3, 2002 Share Posted June 3, 2002 NO blue stance move should do 150+ damage, period. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrCrusher Posted June 3, 2002 Share Posted June 3, 2002 In 1 on 1 duels back stab is fine..... It is when there are more than two players dueling and an Ass Master jumps in out of some dark corner and back sweeps three players instantly fragging them. 1on1 against that player is a peice O cake but when you're fighting multiple opponents it is nothing more than an exploit. It doesn't bother me so much as it makes me laugh but I'm laughing mostly at the absurdity of the attack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Talon_of_BHG Posted June 4, 2002 Share Posted June 4, 2002 It seems to me that an increase in the damage the saber does in general would solve that along with reducing the blocking to make it slightly more dependant on where someone is aiming.

Fayanth Posted June 4, 2002 Author Share Posted June 4, 2002 Another thouht. Maybe instead of having the backstab on blue attack, why not have it as a red finisher, and add a lower damage blue one? This way we both are happy. Back stab still in game, but it not in the blue stance. Red is lacking some sort of moves anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FraggleH Posted June 5, 2002 Share Posted June 5, 2002 The main problem I find with the backstab is that people standing in *front* get killed. Ping doesn't seem to be an issue with it, so I guess it's a detection bug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill_st Posted June 5, 2002 Share Posted June 5, 2002 The one reason that proves that BS had to be changed (and I say had because it looks like raven has already changed it in 1.03a ) is that 9 out 10 saber kills are backstab kills.. so unless somebody gives me a good reason why he/she thinks that a game should be all about one move (as it is right now for many people) I think 1.03 was majorly screwed up with the BS.
