Avicus 3.0 Fixed Knockback? by Stimulating January 13, 2015 at 9:01 PM UTC

So apparently the knockback is going to be fixed with the next update. Opinions? 

Imo, it's going to seperate the good PvPers from the people who kb abuse because you can actually preform normal combos and use normal kb techniques. It forces people to learn how to PvP better and not abuse kb, use wierd kb tactics, etc. 

It also removes those moments where you hit someone 3 times on a bridge, they stay on, but when you hit them once they barely move, w/o beaner ping ( which is when you have 80-150ms usually, which causes you to take almost no kb). 

I will admit though...It was fun abusing the wonky kb xD

+1, It'll actually show the players who can actually combo from the ones who abuse the knockback, yes.

I don't think "abuse" is the right word, more like using it to their advantage,

I put abuse as in they use it too much, and since the server has broken knockback, but that word works too.

I'm ok with the people who use it to their advantage once in a while, but as you said, the general reference is to the people who always use it to their advantage.

+1 Most of the time when I try to kill someone (rusher) they fly away. Been wanting to improve my strafe n combo <3

This will actually make it easier for the moderators to tell if someone if using hacks or not.

Can't wait!

Tell me about it.

MLGtino January 14, 2015 at 7:01 PM UTC

I certainly don't do it ;]

Trexychan January 14, 2015 at 7:01 PM UTC

Sometimes I send someone flying, sometimes they don't get knocked back at all.

'Tis a gamble for me.

I'll get god kb anyway..

at least my ms will mean more now. when i get first hit it isnt a gamble on whether they get knocked back or not

This won't make a difference for me. Half the people I knock out the world combat log and I don't have a recording software on my main PC.

how exactly do you abuse knockback? O.O

HeedWeed January 15, 2015 at 8:01 PM UTC

I found it funny how if there was a knockback II item on the map, the player getting hit would basically fly across the map. Good times..

Doppelganger_ January 15, 2015 at 11:01 PM UTC

DammIt abusing it was fun esp with my potato ms and ping. :///

Or sometimes a knockback II stick would knock them like 2 blocks :/
