It's fucking fantastic. Play vanilla a bit and then mod its shit up. Gekokujo is really good if you like medieval Japan.

>>321190220
adding to this -
holding F1 lets you aim and drop a flag, all your selected troops will go and hold on that spot.
learning shortcuts makes battle so much better

Ridiculously fun and time consuming game. I keep going back to this and dropping more hours into mods. One of the best purchases that I've ever made.

>>321190876
depends on your playstyle anon
rhodoks>other fag nations
>>
>>321190876
Not that anon but each faction has it's own perks. If you want specialized infantry go for Nords or Rhodoks. Cavalry go for SWADIANS. For a balance do Vaegirs, Khergits and Sarranids are shit skins and don't count.
>>
>>321190876
Now listen to me and do what i say.

Download Diplomacy mod and play the game with just that mod, no floris no shit like for a first playthrough.

https://forums.taleworlds.com/index.php?topic=116424.0

Swadian Knights steamroll everything in open ground except maybe sarranid mameluks, Rodok crossbowman for defensive sieges and Nord Huscarls for offensive sieges, Vaegirs are shit, Horsefuckers are shit but a bit dangerous.

Apart from the world map the graphics really aren't 'that' bad. Just crank them up to max as just about anything that's regularly used as a gaming PC should be easily able to max it out.

It is a really fun game, especially some of the multi player stuff.

Just play warband and shitpost around

It's the most addictive single player game in history really, due to how fun it feels to kill people from your horse.

Once you feel you want to battle with lords and get more serious, amybe even become king, then read that long guide

I recommend playing a while without a guide for a few hours.

You're likely going to end up a mercenary or a highwayman, encountering many frustrations and small triumphs as you watch the kingdoms fuck each other silly.

Then look up a guide, and be ready for FEASTS, TOURNAMENTS, AND COURTING THE ONE PRINCESS THAT DOESN'T HAVE POTATO FACE (plus more feasts).
AND DISCOVERING WHY A BOW IS BETTER THAN A ZWEIHANDER AND WHY SOME KINGS ARE FUCKING CUNT FUCKS WHO DON'T ALLOT FIEFS FAIRLY (this decides which King you want to kill first).
>>
Does this game have co op?
>>
>>321192851

Its just convoluted. Read a guide or two and it'll make sense. I think you're getting worried about difficulty when its more just understanding how the game is played outside of battles

This. Tell me more about co-op. I just bought Insurgency and fun as fuck with my friends. How about this game?
>>
>>321196926
Native multiplayer is good but full of people who know what they're doing who will fuck you endlessly until you learn to git gud. Napoleonic wars multiplayer is somewhat thriving and still full of people who will fuck you up the ass with their bayonet while spinning around in circles. Sieges are more fun because of artillery having to punch holes through walls and shit. Nothing feels better than charging into a freshly made breach and stabbing guy after guy with your bayonet.

Overall, I'd still say single-player is a lot more fun than MP most of the time. I usually just fuck around on a deathmatch server in napoleonic wars to get better at bayonet duels.

>>321197370
>>321197597
I'd say it adds to the sandbox experience, so you can build up your legacy or possibly even end other lord's legacies by kidnapping their offspring (assuming they also age)
>>
>>321195550
Do you really need a guide for any of that stuff?
>>
>>321197698
They did mention character aging, and if you age you can probably die of old age, so it only makes sense that you'll have to have an heir.

No co-op, don't see how it would possibly work

>>321196926

Is good but get ready to be somebody else bitch because people who knwos how to fight will steamroll hard all the time.

Napoleonic is a lil more fair but still people who knos how to bayonet will fuck you up the moment they get close. Also calvary is harder since your horse barely can take a bullet
>>
>>321198163

There is no co-op for this game at least in native.


You have two mods if you want something close to co-op: Persistent World and a fairly new alpha stage co-op mode which is super barebones at the moment.

>>321198743
The problem with coop mode is: Ho are you possibly going to handle the passage of time.

There are no turns in Mount and Blade, so you just having turns for the sake of multiplayer campaign is kinda silly.

Other than that, maybe Butterlord allows for lan/internet coop. The Host is the adventurer and other people may join as a companion character or just jump in/out as they please in battles.

The first mod is Gekokujo and is a Single Player mod.
The second one is Bear Force II and it has a small population online but remains fun if you have good ping
>>
>>321203607

Mods are pretty easy to install on M&B. Some have installers, the rest you just drop into the Modules folder in the install directory.

The Jap mod is Gekokujo. It's one of the better made mods.
http://www.moddb.com/mods/gekokujo

The Star Wars one I'm not familiar with.

As for how many people you'll find online, I'm not sure. I stick to native for multiplayer.

>>321203642

Focus on being effective in combat and buffing your leadership so you can lead a larger party. Get companions to handle things like surgery, training, tactics, pathfinding, etc so you don't have to.

I fucking hate having high ping in mountain blade. Makes cavalry impossible because by the time you swing at someone you're already dead.

This wouldn't be a problem if most populated M&B servers weren't in yurop for some reason. Sucks being a burger.

Oh, and have one companion with ridiculously high persuasion to use as an emissary when you're a faction leader.
