disable random crits in medieval

[bright elk]

what the title says

[sleek anvil]

yeee i agree

[full heart]

better idea get rid of medieval mode

[sleek anvil]

tbh ye its a filler mode

[split phoenix]

fixed it for u

[rose yew]

+1 on completely removing medieval mode maps from the official pool.
otherwise i support removing random crits from medieval by default with an option to enable by the map maker.

[plush junco]

medieval haters smh

[bright elk]

medieval mode is awesome

[cinder bough]

but Chekhov's Punch is basically High Risk, High Reward since mostly everyone in Medieval is using melee. So practically, it's very risky strategy in Medieval mode because 7/9 classes can two shoot you with melee or scouts and spies (not counting backstabs) three shoot you with melee.

[undone stag]

you say that cuz u havent seen a heavy one shotting everyone yet 💀

i played degroptkeep once and saw a dude boxxing the hell out of people on the point

[cinder bough]

i saw it already and it's basically luck if the team the heavy is going up against and if there are huntsman snipers who will keep the distance away from you

also Chekhov's Punch has 65% more melee range (hidden stat).

also while having crits with Chekhov's punch, eating crit sandwich restores 3x amount of health [360 HP] with potentional overheal and dropping Crit Sandwich on the ground acts like Large Health Pack.

I feel like itd make a boring gamemode even more boring lol

[wicked valve]

honestly eh, the way i see medieval is that until we get more weapons that work in medieval, you either make it boring or make it unbalanced

and id rather unbalanced over boring

[undone stag]

really?

i noticed that med melee unlock has longer range too

[golden stag]

Medieval without crossbow, volcano fragment, and demoknight is foolish

[cinder bough]

if more medieval weapons were added, i would like engineer medieval buildings like replacing sentry gun to ballista (that still acts like sentry but fires projectile arrows instead of hitscan bullets), replacing dispenser with healing fountain (that only heals but doesn't give ammo).

these medieval buildings would be exclusive to medieval mode for engineer.

[undone stag]

why though?

doesnt it just bring more viariation? why limit it for a certain map only?

[cinder bough]

because engineer is basically useless in medieval mode and he needs medieval rework by adding him buildings that can build in medieval mode. well, in TF2C at least, he can build jump pads in medieval mode. but being able to build jump pads in medieval mode is still not enough to justify playing engineer in Medieval mode.

[undone stag]

you can kill people with the jump pad pretty sure theres even an achievment for it

[cinder bough]

i know but still not justified enough to play engineer in the first placen in medieval mode.

[undone stag]

this is a issue with engie having no variety overall not just medieval

jump pad and coil gun are cool but still lack some sauce

[cinder bough]

but adding medieval buildings would justify enough to play engineer. If it was an Medieval Tier List of classes, Engineer is still in F Tier. with medieval buildings, i would bump him up to either A or S Tier.

[undone stag]

i get ur point but why make a unlock restricted to medieval?

[cinder bough]

because as the devs said, only three weapons per slot for each class (stock included).

[undone stag]

yeah i remember that

[cinder bough]

so basically two new weapons per slot for each class.

[shut creek]

jump pad in medieval is very powerful

degroot keep blu can get in the castle before the gates open and red can get to the front lines quicker and not take fall damage

[undone stag]

but engie doesnt have that many unlocks (1 secondary, 1 teleporter, maybe we gonna get one slot for each building?)

[cinder bough]

would buildings count towards this counter like two of each buildings slot (Sentry, Dispenser, Teleporter).

but sure why not.

we should make it so we can have medieval buildings outside of medieval mode.

but they would basically be downgrade to stock buildings outside of medieval mode.

[undone stag]

just make it a normal building

[cinder bough]

i remember this post talking about that engineer should be able to change his building like each building has it's own loadout slot.

this would made engineer more modular

[undone stag]

yeah when i said this i had this in mind

[undone stag]

and expand engie to have many more possible combinations

[cinder bough]

sure

but how could medieval buildings work?

i imagine engineer building small balista instead of sentry and it would fire arrow projectiles that deal heavy dmg but it's projectile so it can be dodged.

and it would have 100 Hp instead of 150 and can't be upgraded.

and cost 75-100 metal to build.

[cinder bough]

basically it would be medieval mini sentry

[undone stag]

you know this discussion was supposed to be about random crits in medieval and now we entering #1375954618952974388 territory

[cinder bough]

meanwhile the dispenser would be replaced with wooden foutain that sprays the healing liquid medic uses in his mediguns so it would only heal.

[undone stag]

but yea a ballista that replaced the sentry and shot huntsman-like arrows sounds like a good concept

[cinder bough]

yeah, i noticed.

[shut creek]

this isnt even related to random crits in medieval

[undone stag]

ye lmao

[cinder bough]

i should make a new post in weapon ideas about this. let me cook.

[undone stag]

maybe the name could be a reference to clash royale? the H-bow
