Combat system needs no adjustment. Those who master it can defeat players 2-3X their power.

You clearly don't know how a real combat system feels.
And I'm not referring to the tab target one.

There was nothing wrong with the combat system.

All's you did was run away during your one combat experience. How can you even have an opinion on it?

What's wrong with it?


Too twitch based (i.e. how good hand-mouse coordination you have); people here prefer turn-based combat with very little twitch demand.

So, you are advocating a turn based combat system, rather than a SKILL based one? :roll:

nothing wrong with combat system. more tricks would be more fun I guess but it is in no way unfair. (unless you suck balls at it)

You are problably playing on a ****** computer which still runs Windows 95 and Salem is the only "game" supported by that ****** pc.

Again, you can't even explain why Salem's combat system is good. (you are only defending it because you are addicted to it)
How can you define good a combat system with no collision detection, damage input-output indicator, laggy and based on character's stats and not on player's skills?

Salem's combat system takes a lot of skill. I'm willing to bet if Darwoth sponsors me a 200ish fighter on Jamestown that I beat the 4 people in sparing video they posted the other day. It's not some mindless I press a button my attack hits you for x amount of damage. You have to actually hit the person. You have to move and outsmart the other player. You just have no clue. You ran away from your first fight, died anyways, and now claim that there's a problem with the current.

yup. The combat here is based on acute prediction of enemy moves based on close knowledge + calculation of how your enemy fights and what options he/she has.

(If you just run away during combat, you are pretty predictable.)
