Right now you can only shove a person down if your weight is heavy. This seems foolish. Many enemies can knock us over while clearly being less encumbered.
Lets take the idea and suggest that everyone can use the knockdown feature. How to make it useful? Light against light knockdown would stagger, like a punch to the face. Medium against light would knock down like being dropped to the knee. Heavy against light would bowl a person over like they do to you (think crestfallen knight with a shield charge). Heavy against heavy would be like light against light, and so on and so forth. And if you tried to use this against someone with a heavier set you would stagger. Medium against heavy just stagger, and perhaps light against heavy they could counter it. Each level of stagger or knock down would give you more or less time to deal with other mobs. When there are three v one it would be particularly useful to slap a guy down in medium, and to bowl over a light guy with a shield charge so that you could deal with the heavy one on one.
My point is that this mechanic has a lot of room for work, and to make heavy armor sets appealing without being in a lighter class every weight class should have access so that the rewards for heavier sets of encumbrance will be more greatly felt.
I would also like it if using heavy gear also prevented all the hard knockouts that enemies do, at least some mitigation of it. Enemies can suddenly appear out of nowhere and push you off a ledge too easily. Why is it that wearing heavy gear throws you as far as someone on light gear? Doesn’t add up. And if people want to wear light, make them fly farther too.
Exactly! That’s why if you’re in heavy gear shoved by someone in heavy gear you would experience a minor stagger rather than a throw! It would be awesome!
Pushing enemies with faster and shorter weapons lead to missing around 50% of ur attacks after hitting them once.
Which reduces the dps by like 50% and most importantly is extremely annoying and gamebreaking, especially with dual daggers.
Focus attacks that hit mulitple times with the dagger, misses like 90% after the first hit.
And youre stuck in the animation, without doing any damage to anyone.
It also pushes enemies off the cliff and lets ur character follow it, because the next attack steps towards the enemy.
(this game should also add the cliff block while attacking like all souls games these days have it)
Dont repeat the mistakes that were already solved by modern soulsgames.
And you lose orientation when pushing multiple enemies with thousands of effects on the screen.
And it also simply looks silly and doesnt improve the impact of attacks, it actually does the exact opposite.
Making enemies look like they are made from wool.
stop deleting my topics and merging them with ones that arent actually talking about the same thing.
I want these problems to be solved and not waste my time.
This is a different topic.
no i won’t. these suggestions will get seen better if kept together. if everyone is creating a new topic for everything that is already being discussed, topics with lots of input and ideas get buried, as well as the newly created ones. keeping things together is how we can actually brainstorm and keep things in sight.
I have another topic that this man is talking about. I also dont want my topic merged. I also talk about falling off cliffs with push animations. This is not about push animations. This is about adding new mechanics to an existing idea. Please, if youre gonna merge topics pay attention to the base idea.
Your diluting the importance of my idea with a legitemate complaint about existing mechanics.
i am only trying to help, and am not disrespectful or abusing authority. calm down. i can also merge it back. but i still think that adding ideas to existing suggestions is better than to have 50 topics with similar ideas.
Youve merged and deleted almost all of my topics.
I dont waste my time, i want to help the devs.
In some cases the merging was legit and ok for me, but in others they werent.
So reverse the merging of this topic and of the housing chest topic.
Because youve merged it with a inventory topic. completely off topic.
Its nice from you to help to clean the forum and make it more efficient, but you actually have think about the topic before you decide to merge it.
You cant just merge anything that uses a similar word.
Thats just extreme abuse and is hurting us and the game.
i am here to help too. and i did not delete anything. also before u just accuse me of something, why not contact me. or before u do that, why not check, maybe your topic is open again.
if u accuse me of being disrespectful, at least be respectful yourself and talk to me. opening just another thread does not solve this, respectful communication does.
And the brother just aggreed with me.
So i did everything correct.
Youre just abusing ur power, if you simply do what ever you want.
And like i said i was happy about some of the merges and think ur doing a good job and respect that u sacrifice ur free time for the success of this game. Like we all do.
But you have to take it serious, if you mess around with the work of others.
So again, please reopen my “pushing” topic and “housing chests” topic.
Thank you.
Please understand that grouping related topics instead of cyclically repeating the same ones every week helps keep the discussion from becoming fragmented or constantly restarting.
If you believe that two unrelated topics have been merged, contact the moderator. No one is denying that a mistake could have been made
This is my thread. It dealt with a specific topic suggesting adding move sets to existing core mechanics. His dealt with fall damage and lack of boundaries in combat that throw a person over the side. They are not the same. The developers have said they will deal with his problem specifically. They didn’t say anything about modifying shove mechanics. Adding his thread is in no way helpful to my points. So while I respect a moderator’s desire to fix these sorts of things, this was not helpful. I’m only gonna have to repost my original text and see if I can gain proper traction again.
your original post is still there and the other post was re opened. so everything is fine now, is it not? if u insist i can delete the post i added from here and the following discussion. just contact me directly next time guys! before things escalate. i have about 1h per day to check the forum, when there are 100 new posts and 50 new topics, i can make mistakes too. u know i am human as well. so let me know what i should do BEFORE we have another duplicate thread. thx
