Kegs and swords

When I'm holding a keg, my slash animation does not appear, but if i hit the grass, it gets destroyed. Can't charge though, is that normal? i think i'm punching

 

Yeah, it is a bug.

 

Disadvantage. >_>

they come rushing on me, me with the keg, i cant attack, my team isnt following, when they are, they die, i have to drop the keg to kill them, they break it ...

 

Yeaaa... I believe the devs tried to fix this bug themselves, but for some annoying reason... the game breaks the moment they try... >:c

 

other people appear to be normal while holding kegs

 

This isn't only you- if anyone is holding a keg, they can still stab and slash if they hold down the mouse, but they cannot see the animations. However, everyone else can see them.

 

How am i supposed to charge if i can't see/hear the noise of ready? >_>
pure instinct?

 

Pretty much. You have to know how long to hold mouse before you get a slash. Not that hard if you've been playing for a while.

 

I did, but still will be hard, as i was releasing when i heard it first, and stuff :\

 

The real question is, why are you able to attack with a keg at all?

 

Gotta say, I kind of agree with this. The destructive potential of kegs is pretty scary, so it ought to be rather tough and require teamwork to get one to the enemy base.

Or a catapult. You can do that too.

 

you can attack with a boulder your size

 

Kegs, crates, boulders and bombs are all open to abuse in that respect. You can still shield yourself while cooking a bomb, which makes suicide bombing too easy. Boulders are essentially battering rams.
