Using the Bow

[Craymeco]

I don't understand how the bow works. It's a ranged weapon right? When I click on an enemy from a short distance, I walk toward them rather than shooting at them.

maybe use arrows? (second slot)

Yes, that was it! I misunderstood and had a shield in that slot. Thanks!

Lol, Use the bow to shoot a shield ;)

Now I want to see a game that allows you to use Bow as a melee weapon, with the shield

problem here is that, aside from initially having no arrows equipped, you have no visual clue how many arrows are left, or a feedback that arrows are missing when you try to shoot.

Would be nice if you could add 2 small symbols for each hand on the screen, that show which weaponset is selected and also shows the state of the weapons (grade of deterioration, number of arrows etc) when you mouseover or different colours that show a weapon is about to break.

We actually thought about it. Currently ranged combat isn't anywhere near finished, so there're definitely going to be some improvements to it.
