lets see we have guns,swords,bombs,armor,trinkets,shields and helmets.Then why don't we have a few types of horses after all the games name is "spiral knights" and knights were known to ride on horses not running.And we need some type of siege equipments like a cannon,catapault etc.Then only can we call this "spiral knights".

PS siege equipment is a little to much but horses are a necessity we can have special levels on which we can ride these horses

I shouldn't even have to say it, but: Search bar.

Also, no. The mechanic is broken for general use and plain unnecessary for a specialized stage. Minigame, maybe, but considering the Spiral Knights base their gear around technology, also illogical. Why would they have horses aboard the Skylark anyway? They would be smart enough not to lug around extra meat they probably wouldn't need.

Definite no to the siege equipment. That isn't even remotely necessary.

first if they really base there society on technology then they will have some kind of vehicle which helps them go faster the only thing according to me which makes a knight go faster is one of those upgrades in LD. and if not a horse some kind of a car maybe

The fact here is, we don't know how such game mechanics can be implemented in the game. With such a small development team, it is very very hard to say such a system can be created.

Imagine if your real medieval knights got lost in a desert, their horses died of dehidration and had to throw all the siege weapons because they were heavy.

That's what this game is about.
We're traped knights in a mysterious planet without many supplies or ways to contact with our home world.

Why do people continue to try to change the core game mechanics? What's wrong with them? Why do people have to keep trying to add tacky, pointless ideas onto the game with just a bit of brain duct-tape?

"the only thing according to me which makes a knight go faster is one of those upgrades in LD. and if not a horse some kind of a car maybe"

Because MSI is heavily broken if it can go any higher than where it is now. Moving faster than your opponents is already a very large advantage, there is NO NEED for it to be any higher.

Also, "some kind of a car maybe"

Hahahhaha-no.
