Remove horses from the game.

[Prosperous Hope]

They are not fun to play as or against, as well as being fundamentally broken in terms of mechanics. Alt+F4 the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ horses please.

Hit them with a billhook, not a polearm smoothbrain and make sure you turn it around.

Horses are already nerfed. Learn to counter them before you cry about it you noob. You're one of those people that refuses to swap to a different class or use different weapons to counter them. And it sounds like you're too dumb to even know how to play one. They're actually really easy to use.

Horses get 0 hp regen, no armor like you, are already extremely limited in number on each map (2-5 horses that's lame), have a long respawn timer, can't capture points while on a horse, and all attacks from horseback can be parried. So learn to parry or buy a shield if you can't handle that.

Build spike traps with a toolbox, place down bear traps, use a very long melee weapon, use range weapons, or move to the left side of a horsemen when he has his weapon in the couched position since they can't aim on the left side with that attack. Attacking them will interrupt their attack and you can also knock them off their horse resulting in a 3 second stun which is a free kill.

Instead of crying do something about it. The most narrow map in the game has the most horses for a reason. Because it's designed to make it easier to counter them. In real life they were more abundant then your plate armor. Be grateful they're already nerfed you noob. And they already increased the sound effect of horses running to make it easier for you noobs in a recent update.

And they're not broken in terms of "mechanics." They were the tanks in the medieval time period and could easily kill anyone no matter what armor you wore. The amount of kinetic energy transferred to the mounted knight's weapon during a full gallop could easily pierce your plate armor and kill you. You fuc*ing noobs need to learn to stop b*tching about it and do something instead.

Too many cry babies in this game asking for nerfs.

Horses are what make this ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ game as far as I'm concerned XD Plus there's NOT that many horses.

Maybe just learn to look behind you when you hear horse steps?

Just curious but how tf are horses making the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ game? It's not like they're essential to the battlefield, only 2-4 people can play them in a total of 64 people.

We need fire horses

Yeah because other polearms have absolutely no business in anti-horse combat right? For example the spear that was literally made against large animals and later when proper warfare evolved it was specifically against horses. Spear/Pike formations were bane of cavalry for centuries, possibly thousands of years. Apart from obvious effect of spear against horse it also had small bonus effect with horses refusing to charge into spearwalls.

But here in Mordhau? You stab the horse with spear and it will just run you over, completely ignoring 100cm of wood and steel in its chest.

And I more or less agree they're annoying even on our own team, if the horseman is ♥♥♥♥ he can just tk like and autist going 5000mph and bashing into his teammates. They're annoying to fight against sure but you can just move out of their way and/or riposte the horseman if they keep getting to you. and like I said, there isn't that many horses to go around so just try your best to feint them or go at it with a spear, bow down the horse or even throw fire in front of them, the horses won't go through fire.

So you just can't use a billhook or what?

Also, consider this, you are standing directly in front of the horse and stab it. Do you expect all of its momentum to just stop dead once the spear penetrates its skin? Use a bit of common sense and stand off centre from the horse so it doesn't fuggen run you over.

the lance is no problem, it takes proper use by the horseman and is easy to sidestep. (plus good fun getting ragdolled because of a last second shield block) the worst is idiots with 2 handed swords mowing down 4 guys a charge right on the spawn points.

Ohh i fully expect that it wont stop instantly. I expect that it will impale itself on said spear and THEN proceed to stop through somersaults, most likely rolling over me and killing me in the process. Not that i care if the horse abomination die. But the simple fact that horse wont die nor it will stop when stabbed from front is pure stupidity.

As i said, horses have no place in this game. Atleast in their current state (and most likely not even after rework). They have no stamina, no panic bar, they reach unrealistical speed quite often, have blatantly broken mechanics (ie "force field" that is apparently surrounding them, it can be noticed quite easily when one is just near, about 1,5 meters, any horse while its running around)

Not to mention that they arent tied at all into gear/class system Mordhau have and serve no purpose other than to annoy normal players and allow noobs to rack up kills. Chivalry had no horses, no problem. Mount and Blade have dedicated Horseman class but they all come with some cost to their stats and gear cost so they can use horse, something for something basically. Mordhau have nothing similar and they are just terribly broken battlefield pickups without any purpose.


Also why the ♥♥♥♥ should i be forced to use billhook when this game have several polearms available? All of them historically worked against horses pretty darn well.
Plus why in a first place should anyone be forced to switch from their preffered class/loadout to deal with horse? Game is meant to be fun, its all about finding style that fits you and then ofc customization. And i can definitely speak for me and people i know that the moment some of us have to switch from preffered (and thus fun loadout for him) into completely worthless Billhook and then hunt down horseman (something that can take quite some time, depends on map) so others can have fun, he is definitely not having fun. Dealing with horses is annoying, worthless chore that have to be done so one can play properly without having his duels/fights interrupted by "cho cho braindead rape train is here"

Horses don't really add to the enjoyment of the game unless you're on it, in fact i'd probably say they have an overall negative affect on the enjoyment experience of the playerbase. The fact they also accelerate 0-60 in 0.001 seconds is a bit stupid and they have just tried to jam them in every map doesn't help. Too easy to run around cheesing everyone -hopefully they will tweak them.
Bear traps/spikes/environment spikes should insta kill them would be a good start and also make those items more useful.
I'm sure there will be plenty of community servers with no horses on eventually.
