r/Chivalry

Hi everyone, I started playing this game less than two months ago (I played few years back was level 18 only) and I got to level 80 something now. As a realist I am aware that my knowledge is limited and skill is below average definitely however I did notice that I am getting better in terms of team standings and number of takedowns. Last night both of my matches (64 players) I was 4th on my team and everyone else was player 490 plus level. So it was nice to be in that type of company. What worries me is my kill ratio to takedown( almost 3-4 takedowns for 1 kill) is very low and my K/D sucks ( 0.7 only lol).

How worried should I be about low kill number and low K/D assuming I am contributing to the team in many other ways ? And if it is a problem how to improve on this?

I am having fun of my life playing this game and personally K/D doesn’t bother me but at the same time I want to become better and contribute to the team even more. Currently I have more wins than loses overall but slightly negative playing as Agatha.

Don't get me wrong, archer can be a very powerful and annoying class if used well, but only if used well.

I love playing archer, but it has several issues, like how the class is more about luck than skill in some cases. Especially at range, you can't consistently predict your shots due to the enemies often erratic movement. Even at close range, all it takes is someone zig-zagging towards you for it to make the shot near impossible to land.

Yes, a skilled archer is a pain to deal with, but those are rarer than a level 1000 with a sense of humor.

Another issue is that they rarely have anywhere beneficial to shoot from. Most maps don't have spots where archers can do something impactful. Archers are severely hindered by maps with cramped objectives, short sightlines, and minimal high ground spots. However, they are much better on maps with wide open spots, place where Archers have the high ground, and long sightlines.

They also are generally hated by both sides because "The game is meant for just melee!" or "Learn to fight coward!" or even "Archer requires no skill!" No joke, these are things actually said to me in game chat.

There are still more issues with archer than just these, but these are some major ones I thought of.

every time i try, while sprinting of coarse and using the proper class, the character just does a kick. my keybindings are fine, ive messed around with them to troubleshoot it. also, every first match after launching, seconds before i spawn in, it says "killed by crustacean the soup", just like how it normally pops up when you die in game.

does this happen to anyone else? does anyone else get this message? i feel like the admin that goes by the name "crustacean the soup" is ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ with me. is it too far fetched to think an admin, or maybe even game dev, removed my ability to tackle?

i used to spam a bunch of political nonsense in the chat and sprint around the battlefield tackling unsuspecting players from behind. it was a lot of fun. cant do it anymore for some reason. it bums me out enough to not want to play it anymore.

what could this be?
