Is it just me?
« on: April 29, 2012, 02:33:03 AM »
Is it just me or do Khergits get voted in A LOT more frequently since the steam sale? Every server I go to always ends up on random steppe with Khergits. This is stupid for two reasons:

1. Khergits are not fun to play as.

2. Khergits are not fun to play against.

It always ends the same way; The other team always gets trampled into a pile of unrecognizable shit and they either spam their own cavalry or the server empties out as people get frustrated trying to fight an all cavalry team on an open field.

Khergits are annoying to play against if there're horse archers, but nothing you can really do about polls besides 2 them
I have seen many videos on Warband, and I obviously have been playing for a long time, but is all comes down to me making the observation that tactics are hardly used in Native.
observation.
not.
guess.

I don't know if it's actually a trend or I'm just noticing it now. As far as I can remember any map with Khergits used to get changed immediately on most servers, but they seem to come up far more often and get down-voted far less often since the game went on sale.

I've played dozens of matches since the sale and I haven't play Khergit a single time. My friends also haven't really seen Khergit being successfully polled.

I guess you just have bad luck.

Haven't seen a TDM with Khergits for a long while, and if I do, they get instapolled.
Different for DM, though.

Man, I'd love to play as Khergit once more.

Although they're a bitch to fight against. They could use some special rules to make them less overpowered.

Nevertheless, haven't seen the Khergit at all in years. Years I tell you. :P

That's mostly you, you hardly play :P
But nah, khergits are almost non-existed, atleast in the games i play :O
I prefer bayonet, because everyone gets to find their own special way how to fight with it, unlike a sword imo you just mindlessly block, attack and spam.

Haven't seen 'em. Must be the servers you play.

Has anyone noticed a difference with Khergits in multiplayer since the patch that rebalanced their troop stats?
Sweet, now to harvest some horses... At the knees.

Khergits have some fun toys.  its a shame horse archers cheese the faction to the brink of extinction.

But really, I find horse archers no less annoying as when the nord teams just start spamming throwing axes.

Khergits also get the best freebie armor.  Check the stats on it sometime its about as good as the tier 3 armor for most other factions.
