I could do with one of those actually. Maybe some Colovian Ginger Beer. Care to join? Lol

I'll give you an awesome for the bottle of beer alone.

You're not getting anything for that though.

In the real world, heavy armor doesn't significantly impact a wearer's running speed. It only limits how long they can run for. This drawback is modeled by the game in the form of lower stamina regen compared to medium armor.

If heavy armor slowed people down, literally no one would wear it, because in Cyrodiil it's very important to be able to keep up with your group. It would be an entirely unnecessary and unduly prejudicial change that would provide absolutely no benefit.

*cough*
ROFL - omg ; what? lol.

You sir, are challenged to spend a day in heavy gear (lets say a minimum of 50lbs), working manual labor or what not (sitting down is cheating); And come back and tell us that your running *speed* was not affected after the first hour.

You would train for it. Just as soliders today do...with a heavier load than even a full suit of plate.

Do a little research on it.

I couldn't do a six-minute mile in full battle-rattle, but I could still keep a decent pace.

50 lbs? Aren't you setting the bar a little too low?

A complete suit of plate armour made from well-tempered steel would weigh around 15–25 kg (33-55 pounds)

Just edited my first post since it was incomplete. Half of it kept getting deleted for some reason.

Very poor post. No logic here whatsoever.

First of all, if you don't understand a language then there's no use in writing a post in that language only for you not to understand the replies you will receive.

As for your opinion regarding heavy armour and numerous players not being able to kill a heavy armour user... well that's pretty much the point of heavy armour. Heavy armour is made for tanking and survivability, medium armour is made for damage dealing and stealth, and that no good *fluffy flutter* light armour is for those who don't know better.

Tell me, where can I find Russian support in TESO?

Dude, if you go on a forum and you don't understand the language, that's not my problem. I don't go on Russian language defaulted forums for that very reason.

If you want to see support for Russian forum members be added then contact Zenimax about it. Otherwise, not much you can do besides learn the default language of the forum or write in your native language and hopefully get a reply from someone who speaks Russian.

If you aren't going to learn the whole language then at least try to understand what you want to write before you go ahead and post it.

First off, he did a fairly decent job explaining himself despite the language barrier. Secondly, you are more than welcome, in fact very welcome to bugger off. You don't have to respond here either, you know?

Well this is an open forum which allows everyone to have their say, regardless of whether it's popular or unpopular. I don't have a problem with some of my posts being disliked by some since that's inevitable for someone to have a problem with somebody regardless of reason.

I do however find your "bugger off" comment to be a cause for concern. Not because you evidently dislike my post, but the fact that you're suggesting I shouldn't voice it. If you have a problem with someone, fine, can't do much to change that. Telling them to basically shut up though because you have a problem with what they say is something else. Advocates for freedom of speech will know that as censorship.

If you don't like what people have to say and you have nothing valuable to say critiquing it, maybe you're the one who should and I quote "bugger off".

I don't mind you commenting on what he wrote. But I do mind you criticizing him for not knowing English perfectly. That was very rude of you. So the bugger off comment. Which I mean wholeheartedly. So stick to what he wrote, which is perfectly understandable.
