Cyanide - Piling On skill

Post by Merrick »

So yeah, either I'm doing it wrong, or Cyanide have broken the Piling On skill.

It says the player MAY use Piling On and go to ground to reroll the armour or injury, but the game seems to think that means MUST use it every time a block is thrown.

My Ogre falls over every time he knocks a player down, and it's starting to p*** me off. Am I doing it wrong or is it geniunely a male chicken-up by Cyanide?

you're kind of doing it wrong.
You need to go in one of the menus and tick if skills are used automatically or if the games needs to ask for your approval.
By default most of the skills are set to be used automatically, hence your players always piling on...

Well, that's a bit silly.

At least I know it's my fault now. Cheers!

Yeah skills like multiple block just trigger... many times changing the settings to "ASK" is essential to be able to control some skills.

And occasionally setting skills to "ask" has no effect and it's still mandatory (such as dodge) :pissed:
