bows being spammy

Post by Evilina »

I think everyone can agree bows are a bit spammy in melee, I'd like to propose removing the flying message and only leave the shoot and hit message. If we see an arrow fly it's common sense it will land somewhere. :)

This would at least remove 1/3 of the messages seen due to bows and might make timing bashes and running other timers a bit easier.

Moar spam!!!!

MOAR

Srsly though, at least 4 flying messages

'Dillhole fires an arrow!'

'an arrow flies from a bow'!

'an arrow nears it's apex'

'an arrow reaches apex'

'an arrow accelerates slowly towards Trogdor!'

'and arrow causes spamtastic mayhem!'

"an arrow's spam almost crashes the mud! and your comp!'

'an arrow missed Trogdor!'

'and instead hits your friggin horse...'

Wait, htf did I shoot my own friggin horse?!?

Srsly, why can I hit my shadow goat?

It deserves better than that!!!

Fly messages for arrows have been removed for now. We'll try it this way and see if people like it better.
