Im just curious what happened to the charges, i mean I know realism and such but maybe this'll make it funner with the battles, i mean like the game had there own charges and stuff not talkin things ungodly and stuff but little kicks to help a single general, everyones main character should have a charge or somethin like the olden days.
Thats just my opinion.

Actually that's a valid point, I also miss the charges from the older days. I think they should be brought back as long as the actual abilities remain within reason.
I'll wait to see what the other staff members say.

Frankly i would vote against this. They always caused more trouble than they were really worth. Its easy to say don't make them godly but a lot of people used to abuse them then run away crying when they were told they were point blank cheating. They never really did a lot but they did cause a lot of arguments most of which i found myself in the middle of.
I think its just too hard to justify what the power of them should be as they are so diverse in what you can do with them. Every one has different opinions including the mods which meant some get accepted even when most people would say they are overpowered.

Yeah well I'm in the middle (wow charges seem so long ago lol) I did really like the charges and they were here from the beginning of the site but as Matt said they started to get out of control. What I mean is people using them too much and as said before getting in a hissy fit when told not to. At the moment if I'd have to say yes or no it would be no but a yes to maybe something similar, the staff will discuss

Charges were pretty much like giving a chinese guy back then a gun and unlimited bullets for a set period of time to cause destruction. If people want it back thats fine but I'd have to say no. Its more fun to fight the way Chinese men would back then. Maybe charges for duels or one-on-one combat but not for waging war with cuz thats why you have troops. This is a Dynasty Warriors site n not an ROTK site, but Charges are very hard to play out without god modding, which some people do without knowing it. Those are just my thoughts on it.

Hehehe, I know I had created quite a bit of trouble; for my ingenuity, using my charge in a creative fashion. I don't see a problem with it as long as they use them accordingly. (to tag on what mike said) Public knowledge Dynasty Warriors adds a lil bit of fiction to actual historical events.
If the site isn't going to add that fiction. I make a notion to change the title of the site to something of ROTK which has little to know fiction.
stating that charges are overpowered is rather silly. People had charges that were completely useless from large scale battles, while their charge excelled in duels. I don't see anything wrong with that. Charges themselves are godmodding; how you use them may be considered godmodding (Clicky). I haven't encountered any issues with charges.
Please click the clicky; scroll down to the abilities if you are having doubts about it still. That link should round up most, if not all the loose ends.

I agree with Zhou Yu about not re-adding charges back into the system. to much trouble.

I agree in general with what you said there Burai. I think we have perhaps gone a bit to far toward ROTK. But that was mainly in the sense of realism than anything else. But perhaps we could try countering that by making characters personally fight better in battles of something. More of a dynasty warriors feel although clearly no killing hundred of enemies by yourself.
But i still gotta say charges are not the way to go. Even when used well they annoy the person who loses due to them because they feel like a cheat. Which they are in some cases as the system often allows unbalanced charge attacks. As i said before its very hard some times to see whats overpowered because its often how you Rp it more than anything else. The mods can try and counter that but it all added up to a hell of a lot of work for something many people don't even like or want.
