You SHOULD be able to attack your own mount while riding it.

[Rhododendron 15]

You SHOULD be able to attack your own mount while riding it. This adds to the freedom of Wurm - if you can't attack your own mount while riding it, there's no freedom and everything is restricted.

 

When you attack your own mount it makes you feel that it's a human touch - if you take it out it makes things feel much more fake. If you're riding a horse and you have a weapon in your hands, you would be able to attack the horse! That much is clear. It would be silly to take out that option, because it makes things fake and restricted.

[faty 423]

You should also be able to attack yourself, cut your knees while you are on said horse.. and why not have blisters on your hands ? while you use your maul, it is heavy..

 

Why compare real life with a game ? It's a silly mechanic to be able to kill the mount you are on just because there is lag and/or the horse head gets in the way of your target. A toggle option in the settings would work just fine for the ones that want to dismount by killing the horse they ride.. for some weird reason.. or PVP reasons.. but on PVE everyone will probably disable such an 'option' as it makes no sense

Attacking your own horse should be an option - however a keybind for 'attack enemy', which will not work on neutral or allied creatures would be great, as double clicking is a little finicky when things are moving around.

[Gronkh 15]

that is why i always use right click attack

[Dairuka 888]

I don't even know when you people are kidding anymore.

[Tobe 27]

With this logic, something along toilets should be added before you could kill your own horse while riding it.

Because not being able to take a dump breaks freedom, makes everything fake and restricted?

 

Killing your own horse while riding makes no sense. As faty said, you can't compare a game with real life.

 

PS.

Red Dead Redemption is a good game if you wish to kill your own horse while riding.

Funny is half of the forum goers know who it is.

Alts no longer help people... (Unless you really know what your doing) and then it just invalidates your point if you need to hide from your own opinion on something. Stop attempting at hiding and put your point forth nobody will blame you for it. -.-

[elroth 279]

i like the fact people get loss from mistakes, hard coding the possibilities to make a mistake out of the game makes it less fun for me

we still joke about on of our villagers because he has killed his own horse a few times

 

Also

i like to ride the horse that is about to become glue off deedand  then killit while still on it

i cant do that anymore!! i will quit the game

 

<insert whining and rage> 

[theicefox 5]

Yeah this is seriously going to impact my glue production. I might have to rage quit and act all entitled to things being super easy.

[Alexgopen 2376]

Omg like my horses got unlead and ran away because I accidentally embarked on a boat, I'm seriously gonna quit wurm unless warlander patches this bug where you're able to embark on boats while leading horses. You shouldn't be allowed to accidentally get all your horses unlead like that now I need to chase them down but there's a nogump standing next to them and oh no now I'm dead and I lost my horses AND my boat!!!!11!1!1!1!!!###1!$

I'm in srs quit the game mode right now. You should have to unlead horses before being able to get on boats

Warlander I'm counting on you

[Shrimpiie 3662]

How is it a bug to embark something while leading animals? What you suggest doesn't fix the problem either as when you unlead them to embark on the boat they will run away, better would be to allow animals to stay led while embarking.

[Rhododendron 15]

It should be left in, because if it's taken out we're only catering to people's stupidity (attacking their own horses by mistake) while taking out extra options.

Why isn't this already implemented?

Flawless good sir.

[Niki 2277]

I see how pvpers would want this, you want people to lag and attack there mounts probably. Right?

 

However, I agree, its silly to cater to one person who was going to quit because of it.

This is not just single person - this was suggested multiple times already, always with very positive PvE feedback and very negative PvP only, so... We added that PvE only, without changing anything on PvP servers.

[Galadhel 92]

good job! :-)

The name freedom is becomming more and more ironic every year.
