WHERE'S MY BANNERLORD ANNOUNCEMENT!?!
REEEEEEEEEEE
>>341086338
Announcement of what?
>>341088198
>https://www.taleworlds.com/en/Games/Bannerlord/News/150
>At E3, our focus will be on one feature we think has come on leaps and bounds, compared to previous Mount & Blade games and it's absolutely something we get asked about a lot... but we are keeping it a surprise till June.
There will be a big chunk of information released during the event itself, as we make announcements, so expect multiple videos, as well as written details. In addition, recently announced was that we'll be on the PC Gaming Show on Monday 13th June, the day before E3 starts.
>>341086338
Showing right now on PC gaming show.
>>341089232
just watched it.
Them fuckin sieges

>>341092243
>that obvious cheating
they could just hide the healthbar and it would be fine
>>341092243
>battering ram
holy hell yes fucking finally
is that map reused btw? I remember playing a very similar one in multiplayer.
>>341091808
>>341092243
>siege engines
FUCKING RHODOK SCUM ON SUICIDE WATCH
time to drink from skulls
>>341095663
There are no Rhodoks in Bannerlord to begin with.
>>341095035
There was a lot of stuff reused, like all battle animations and sound effects.
Still no release date though.
>>341092243
>The same sound effects for taking damage
If it aint broke dont change it
>>341095802
RHODOK ANCESTORS ON SUICIDE WTCH
>>341092243
That looks sexy as fuck.
>still says Delivered X Damage
>not Dealt
You, why the fuck did they use the word delivered. I always imagine damage being sent via email or letters.
>>341089113
They are talking about the new ingame currency available for microtransactions: Tale Coins.
Tale Coins (TC) can bei traded for gold in either single or multiplayer as well as to purchase special shop only outfits.
With this move the game will be more in line with what is expected of a modern masterpiece.
>>341089113
It was the siege with catapults and trebuchets thing they were showing during the pc gaming show demo
It's fucking good af
The turks did it. Absolute madmen.
>a single swing from your sword can now hit multiple enemies
YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
>>341097402
HOLY SHIT
>>341097182
You know to think about it why there are no Ottoman inspired soldiers in the game created by fucking Turks?
>>341097402
PERFECT
>>341097402
Ps4 when?
>>341097615
Because they wanted to make a medieval RPG and they're not obsessed with "MUH DIVERSITY" like dumb faggots who care more about their political agenda than the game they're making?
>>341096304
If it ain't broke don't fix it
>those sieges
They didn't show a release date yet though, right?
Fucking turks
I need this god damn game already
>>341092243
Will there ever be city sized sieges?
>>341097615
No Ottomans, but the Khergits/Khuzaits are definitely a mix of Turks as well as other steppe peoples. Also Empire will be Byzantine.
>>341098508
>>341097615
It's not in the same time period fuckers,Ottoman empire did not exist in that time.
>>341098884
They were in a different panelin Turkeyyesterday or so.
The graphic designer said Q1 2017.
>>341097615
Khergits were Turkics. Sarranids were Mamlukes which was basically a Turkic Sultanate in Egypt.
>>341098976
I would say yes, it will be same, only the building will be bigger.
>>341099346
Neither did fucking vikings were fighting italian city states it's a video game set in different world who gives a shit.
>>341099735
> at least half a year away
>>341086338
GO BACK TO SICILY YOU PSEUDO-VIKING BASTARDS!
>>341098508
>muh diversity
what are you even on about we have Mongols and sandniggers already
>>341100239
There will be a beta before the end of the year.
>>341100257
Isn't that guy a proto Vaegir?
>>341089113
>our focus will be on one feature we think has come on leaps and bounds, compared to previous Mount & Blade games and it's absolutely something we get asked about a lot... but we are keeping it a surprise till June.
COOP
O
O
P
>>341100119
>Neither did fucking vikings were fighting Italian city states
Dude,that actually did happen though.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norman_conquest_of_southern_Italy
>>341100570
if they actually have co-op...
holy fuck
>>341100535
The Normans? I dunno, maybe. I know nothing about this game-- at all-- but that helmet in that picture is unique to the Normans that conquered Sicily from the Arabs.
>>341092243
Looks amazing.
>>341100997
Normans had fuck all to do with vikings after one generation.
>>341100775
>coop
I thought coop was confirmed for not happening?
Maybe it's something related to modding or the editor.
>>341101236
They were at one point, though. They were norseman (Christianized, admittedly) that invaded southern territories by boat. So they were close enough that you could call them pseudo-vikings.
>>341100441
thats nice but i dont want a vertical slice beta
i want the full game
>>341100535
Vaegirs and Nords might have been merged into one factions, like the Swadians and Rhodoks.
Player factions in the gameplay vid is likely Stugians.
I dont follow bannerlord stuff so these might not be new to you guys but I'm working in the same complex with talewords and what I hear is;
-they are quite proud of their editor, their main goal is to release the most powerful editor they can and let modder do their shit.
-engine team is pro as fuck, they are doing great
-single player / scenario team is meh and game isnt anywhere close to release
-they are still implementing deleting shit left and right, not sure what to do etc.
>>341092243
>shooting in third person
triggered
>>341101236
Isn't that the case with most vikings? It's not like it was a family tradition that people did because that's what all norsemen were expected to do-- the vikings saw shit they wanted, they invaded it, and they made their home there.
>>341092243
MY DICK
>>341102738
Then they stop being vikings and are simply the locals.
>>341092243
That looks amazing.
What factions will you join first /v/?
>>341106945
vlandia
>>341106945
Khuzait
>>341106945
Do we have any info about factions?
>>341106945
/V/landia is a fucking no-brainer.
>those same garbage PS1 tier animations
Jesus fuck...
>>341086338
RELEASE WHEN
>>341106945
Sturgia is master race
>>341107615
Vlandia confirmed to be ancestors of both Swadians and Rhodoks.
Khuzait speculated to be Khergit ancestors
Aserai speculated to be Sarranid ancestors
Sturgia speculated to be either ancestors of Nords or Vaegirs, possibly both..
Battania is a new celtic inspired faction.
Empire will be Late Roman Empire/Byzantine inspired. Unknown if there will be major differences between the empire factions.
>>341108560
apparently q1 2017
>>341108586
That is weird way of writing Asaria anon.
>>341108778
thank you kind anon.
>>341106945
STURGIA STRONK ALL OTHERS ARE SHIT
>>341096081
>you can genocide rhodoks before they are even born
>>341108778
>New celtic inspired faction
FUCKING SOLD
ITS COMING UP
>>341108778
Nords are from outside of Calradia, so the Sturgians are Vaergirs, if they didn't retcon that that is
>>341108778
>Empire will be Late Roman Empire/Byzantine inspired
FUND THE EMPIRE
>>341092243
My dick is so fucking hard right now
>>341091808
I fucking love trailers like this. They're not as fancy as CGI "wubwub" cinematic trailers, but they show exactly what you get. The weird ass swinging and shit.
Fuck I love it.
>>341086338
fuck off dumbfrogshit
>>341092243
My life is complete
>>341110502
They also show how game is incomplete. You know that it can only improve.
>>341108778
So are Sturgias Slavs or Norse?
Hyborian Age mod WHEN?
>>341111616
I hate this picture Conan looks like a troll or something can human even be this buff? He makes strongmen look like anorexia victims.
>>341092243
>siege machines
>you can actually help operate them
>>341096062
This.
I wouldn't mind a slightly improved and graphically more impressive Warband. A few new additions are required, but not a lot.
>>341092243
>he gets on the mangonel
>he attacks the bar on the door from behind to do more damage
Oh goooooood.
>>341111834
Frig off retardo
>>341111834
I like when artists do overstilization like that, but you have a point
Have some Frazetta then
>>341110031
Could make them Vaergirs ruled by Nords with Nordic elite troops like Russia.
>>341112562
His arms are slimer than Conan's.
>>341112329
When he gets next to it, an icon pops up for a second. I dont think it did more damage, but there is an option to simply remove the bar
>>341112741
frig off
>>341112727
>2016
>beliving in this Ru's were Norsemen meme
>Rurik was fucking Finnish
also
>unironically believing someone would ask foreigners to rule over them
written at the time where krauts and ruskies disliked each other at that
surely it's not german propaganda or anything
>>341112087
That's what it is except with more depth and more ways to approach the game.
So literal 10/10.
>>341113925
Honestly I was content as fuck with the graphics update and when they showed how immersive the cities were with tons of people walking around and games to play in the bars. More immersion sold me already.
now this siege system? god damn, son my dick is hard
>>341111613
Unknown which, possibly both.
still no coop
>>341113174
There are multiple non-German contemporary sources that suggest the Rus were Norsemen. Take your pseudo-history somewhere else
>>341114604
So they will squat while being BLACKED?
They showed up.
>>341115443
And you don't link any lmao if Rus were Norsemen then Romans were Americans.
This guy speaks so fast
>these stupid questions
>>341116162
>he doesn't want Death Stars
>>341116534
i wanted more info on the base game
not
>SO YOURE MAKING THIS GAME REALLY MOD FRIENDLY, RIGHT? WHAT MODS DO YOU EXPECT???
>dunno lol!
>>341108778
So who is the dedicated archer group?
>>341115693
Uhh
>De Administrando Imperio. Byzantine account
>Povest vremennykh let (“Tale of Bygone Years”) Slavic account.
Also
>believing soviet propaganda.
>>341092243
>That gameplay
How do these turks do it?
>>341101403
Only the dream version of co-op is confirmed not happening, as in two players with different parties on the map.
However they might add co-op where players form a single party.
>>341118129
Battanians are confirmed to be an archer faction
>>341118315
Lmao not gonna read some fucking german propaganda go back to listening to Amon Amarth and reading Thor comics.
>>341092243
WEWWW
>>341118460
That could be viable.
>>341092243
>No more moshpit on the wall
>Ballistas on the wall
ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh when when when
>>341118676
>Gives sources
>Lmao I aint gonna read that
You sure showed me
>>341118460
that would be perfect though. Two players in the same map, staring in different places, climbing the ranks slowly then meeting in the field of battle.
>>341092243
It's fucking perfect.
>>341094437
Cheating is part of the experience
>>341119026
>sucking ass at seiging
you're too stupid to dawn a 2h weapon and do the overhead swing, arent you?
typical fucking weeb
I wonder if best one handed weapon aka Elite Scimitar will make a comeback.
>>341106945
Khuzait ofcourse I'm going to make a big steppe horde to rape and pillage everyone.
>>341120190
who cares when you can craft weapons together
god 2017 is going to be so good
>>341106945
the one that isnt sandniggers
>>341112575
Based frazetta
>>341113174
Ibn Fadlan met some Rus and they were still burning their chieftains and lords in boats according to him.
>>341111613
>>341119765
>dawn
>>341121021
Typical Slav behaviour.
>>341121228
But anon cremating dead lords in boats is something norse.
>>341100346
We call them Spaniards and Hungarians.
>>341092243
I knew Turkroaches were good for something
>>341121839
Typical slavshit burial.
>>341120307
Good luck with taking any castle, or defending any for that matter.
>>341107990
>/V/landia
>/V/
>>341123013
I hope they've changed that a bit tbqh.
Khergits were really fun for field battles, hopefully they have also fixed the horse archer AI some mods already did that for warband.
>>341123642
>>341123013
The thing is mongols where actually amazing at siege warfare.
>>341123642
In the siege video there seemed to be an option at the beginning there to leave units mounted. Hope there are some mongol style sieges where you just ride in circles around the castle and pelt it with arrows.
>still like 50 units on the field
>cant field proper armies without the game shitting itself
Shit game. Day 1 pirate.
>>341092243
I am beyond erect
>>341124159
Yeah but I got the idea that it was more because they had bright minds from iran till china to make them siege engines.
>>341124406
That would be nice or maybe storming a breach with horses or something.
>>341092243
WWOOOAAAHHH MOMMA
>>341125175
anyway, for game balancing I guess it's good that they suck at it in mountain blade
>>341125756
I guess else they would be overpowered.
>>341111981
Siege weapons are meant for Peasants not Lords. Have fun
>>341124159
But not fucking Khergits.
>>341127350
I think the problem was the bottleneck the ladders/towers made but now even the khergits would be viable.
>>341128032
The other problem unless they fixed it in Bannerlord is that no one wants to surrender even when you have 300 troops and the castle has like 100.
>>341128032
>mfw the corridor between both gates gets filled up with Khergit archers
>>341128348
300vs100 when the 100 are the ones walled in isn't exactly impossible odds, Anon
But I get what you mean
>>341128682
Hope there is a boiling oil upgrade for castles.
>>341128348
You can easily hold that castle though even if the attacking party had twice the number with 100 elite troops you could still pull it off.
>>341128682
Kek
>>341128682
>>341129173
They are throwing down pottery with burning oil even in trailer.
All hail steppe fries.
>>341119576
This. If you weren't cheating half way through your M&B playthrough then you have autism and need to be put down.
>TFW can't play swadia without cheats
>>341129714
Why would you cheat anon the game is totally doable without cheats also the fun is in becoming stronger and getting a bigger army.
>>341092243
TURKS AND SLAVS SAVE GAMING
NOW
>>341129714
No, you're just a fucking scrub
>>341130000
quads of truth
>>341102429
ankaralıııı
>>341130000
>>341124583
5he gameplay video clearly shows 300 on the players side, likely at least 100 for the enemy
>>341130325
>>341130670
This is my first quads ever t bh I only had dubs till now.
>>341111616
Yeah, I've wondered why we don't have a Hyboria or Elric mod for warband on a couple occasions.
>>341130000
Not the anon you;re replying to, but I always get fucked when it comes to money and funding my army and garrisons. In vanilla it's the greatest problem when making your own kingdom.
On the sidenote, in phantasy you can deposit money to the bank and it grows at the rate of 5% a week, is there a similar option at the diplomacy mod?
>>341092243
100v100 online siege, like this.
That will be fucking epic.
>>341130997
I looked into an hyboria mod a few times but both two attempts did stop somehwere in development unfortunately.
>>341131141
I normally take all the towns and villages around said towns for my self the rest I give to my vassals.
Also during peacetime you should bet on tournaments and win them or kill sea raiders they most of the time drop some nice loot.
If that all doesn't work start raiding villages which you don't plan to give to yourself later on.
>>341130148
It's habit man, I just don't want my entire army decimated by 15 farmers because I was shot in the head from a mile away.
>~500 hours in Warband
>80 hours in F&S

Are Nords back? I know that Bannerlord is going to be a prequel, so does that mean the Nords haven't started invading yet?
Can we finally play asCelts?[/spoilers]

>>341136982
Thanks man.
>>341118460
I think co-op in a single party would be a more fun idea as long as it allowed for at least 4 people. The commander would essentially be the party leader who decides the overall course, but each player would be free to do separate things in battle and in town.
>>341137142
If Butterlord has a shit release I will finally lose any and all hope in videogames.
Please god don't let it happen.

This. It's the only game I have any hype for. All my favorite game franchises are either slowly being killed or simply don't release titles anymore.The last game I was hyped for was Spore
>>341106945
>only sharing borders with 2 other empires
>all enemies must enter through 1 of 2 choke points at either side of the map
Asaria looks dank but my choice will be decided by troops, that said even if Asaria has garbage troops they're probably going to steamroll most games just due to the size and position of their territory
>>341106945
What is the white territory? Free/independent areas? Lakes?
>>341138958
It's water you rhodok.
>>341139112
Asaria looks OP as fuck then.
Honestly i'm glad they are taking the time necessary to actually achieve what we've been promised. Id rather have an amazing game in a year than a mediocre game now
>>341106945
What ever place I find a bucket helm in
>>341119765
The devs made the change because this is fucking better you autistic cunt, I never minded the moshpit that bad but to try and act like this isn't an improvement is incredibly fucking retarded
What are improvements you want to see to the political system
>>341139358
What was that thing Shiggy said about rushed games? Cause it's true.
>>341119765
>he plays on easy mode damage reduction
yeah try overheading a weapon just to get sniped by the dozens of archers on the side
I want to be able to assasinate lords and ambush their armies. Why be a knight when you can be a stealth archer?
>>341119765
fucking hell do you play on easy?
The correct strategy is to start off the seige with a large group of archers to pummel them, then leave the battlefiel and go back in with footsoldiers.
>>341119241
literally the only concession that would be required is to slow down the time slightly (maybe) and make the time never freeze, whether in battle or in dialogue with NPCs. It would be weird as fuck to have a battle last a week but that's just what would be required. Once you get over that coop should be able to fit in quite nicely with existing game features, at least conceptually.
>>341139358
Would it even matter? Most of the content will be made by modders, and they've already made the bones for them.
>>341140000
Why waste your archers when you can whittle the enemies down by yourself?
100% cavalry or go home
>>341140002
reduce game time, and/or travelling speed, and it will work.
It will be weird if you can join an already existing battle though. Could work if there is a timer for your troops to arrive.
Bows are hard to use I don't know why people don't just pick up a crossbow.

>>341145424
Rome 2 is good now though.
I feel you with Rebirth though. Biggest disappointment of my life.
>>341112087
Haven't been keeping up, it's exactly that, but so many more options like custom weapon building down to the hilt, including grip,guard, and pommel. as well as of course, the blade.
>>341145576
Not that anon but I could never forgive what happened with rome II and never returned to it out of spite. All the lies they fed us about improved AI, the entire seige of Carthage, not since spore was I this mad at a game not living up to the hype
>>341144407
