Some suggestion

Sorry if this is already suggested but I couldnt find anything, but now over to the ideas.


When Im on the battlefield and rides on my horse with a lance against an enemy, it looks pretty bad when I release the attack button too late (I know when to attack :p ) but the soldier SHOULD have been killed/hurt by my lance because it went through the soldier :p you know what I mean, dont you?

And shields: Even if I dont hold the defense button (or when I shoot on other soldiers) arrows should be stopped by the shield if they hit it. Not go through as it does now. I think you still know what I mean
 
I'm guessing you're talking about when you miss with the tip of the lance, but the middle of it clips his arm or something? This is just a graphics flaw existant in all games. The idea is you missed, and the middle of the lance is just brushing against him. Which might leave a bit of a brush burn if he didn't have any armor on...but nothing serious. Although, the shield idea has been suggested before and i agree. But i don't think it should cover as large an area when its at your side to simulate the fact that if an arrowdoes hit your shield at that angle it was by pure luck and not because you moved to block it.
 
The thing with the lance is it is unrealistic. I have to release the attack button to trigger some sort of damaging script, but if it was in real life I dont need to move the lance to damage. Thats what I mean. If you have watched any films/or done it you know you dont need to stretch your arm forward to damage. The speed is already there :p

And pikes too: If I just hold it in front of me and someone is dumb enough to run/ride on the tip of the spear I should deal damage even if I dont release the attack button
 
Umm... sounds like you don't know how to properly do couched lance damage. It's pretty simple. Just ride forward at a high enough speed that your lance automatically comes down into a couched position, then aim your lance so the tip will touch the enemy. You do not ever even touch the attack button to do couched lance damage.
You'll know if you got it by a "Couched Lance Damage" indication in the scrolling text.
Works best on flat ground; up and especially down hills will often have the lance miss and go right through, like you're saying. Mildly irritating.
 
you know what has been suggested before? not making threads called 'some suggestion', 'OMGLOLWTF I HAD AN IDEA!!!111 ^___^', or anything else that vague. a better one would have been 'lances should deal damage even though you won't release the attack button'

Either you mean "I can not figure out how to couch my lance" or "I don't know where the hell I am because I'm so high."

No no I mean in real life you dont need to put your lance forward to hit a person. Its just to hold it under your arm. And if you dont know what I mean... You are stupid :p no offence bwgaa
 
thats what happens when you do couched lance. as someone said int his topic, ride staright and the lance will move down, then aim the head at an enemy and ride at them, dont push the attackbutton and you can do humongus couched damage, it is hard to get the hang of tho..

for the shield, i agree...but well have to wait and see
 
Thats called couching.

Just get your horse to full speed (must be at least 9) and your lance will automaticaly go under your arm, couching it.

Don't press any buttons, and guide the tip of the lance in to your opponet.
