Can't wait till 2030 when it's released.
What's this then, eh?
>>320964683
I VILL DRINK FROM YOUR SKULLL
>>320963668
overworld still ugly as balls
Fuck yeah
>>320965787
Balls aren't ugly
>>320965787
Its just the font
Look at it whilemignoring the text, looks miles fucking better
>>320965954
fair enough
>>320965954
Still looks bloody awful.
I need this to be released...right...NOWWWW
>>320963668
watch this, shows off the seasons

>12 weeks to a year
well that explains everything
IT'S ALMOST HARVESTING SEASON.
I was just complaining last night that there hasn't been an update in months.
Oh shit now you don't instantly know how big the armies are.
Im still worried about the console release, this game will still be made for pc right?
>mfw 5 man unit cap, auto aim, and paid cosmetics
>>320966382
I am guessing some scout skill gives you that ability. It was like that in some mod I played.
>>320966463
Nigger there's a mobile release for warband.

>>320966463
Think about every other game that "put the PC version first" and search your heart for the answer.
>>320963668
It kind of look like shit. I at least hope the performances will be good. I don't want another deception on the scale of Arma3.
>caring about the visuals in a mount & blade game
>>320966463
Look how well it did for The Witcher 3.
Consoles kill titles made for the PC, always.
Thank god STALKER got killed before it could become of that fate.
>>320967061
Not everyone want to be stuck 15 years back because you're too cheap to get rid of your potato computer.
>>320967221
FUCK YOUUUUUUUUUUU
>>320967061
I can see why people would want the overworld map to look a bit better, considering that's where most of your playtime is spent.
Visuals are never a big problem for me in these games, as long as it doesn't it doesn't look putrid. Obviously I'd like both, but I'd rather have better AI and troop numbers.
Aging system confirmed, my progeny will inherit my kingdom.
>the campaign wont be multiplayer
>>320967353
How boring.
My progeny will be rebellious fucks who want to start their own kingdoms.
>>320967353
>>320967539
How dull. My progeny will abandon the steppe warrior life in favor of settling a court and will be tranquilized by the same people we've been raiding for years, only for them to beat him at the game of civilization and take back all we carved away.
Honestly I just care about the map editor, I want to spend hundreds of hours putting together wonderful multiplayer maps.

Vaporware. Games take a long time to make but this is getting ridiculous.
>>320968226
The original Mount and Blade took like 8 years to make.
>>320968542
True, but you could play it by this point. You could play it before there were even towns. It sounds like you could probably start doing things with Bannerlord too by now. I'm surprised they haven't followed the Early Access trend and done so.
>>320968542
could probably remake it in Unity in like a year.
>>320968542
Really?
It's not particularly big game.
>>320968542
At that time it was literally one guy and he was making a brand new engine.
>>320967839
That no one will ever play.
>>320967538
>wanting multiplayer
>>320963668
>2015
>Papyrus
>>320968934
>>320968958
fucking no devs I swear
>>320969241
When HL2 was made, they reused a lot of the sound effects from Half Life, even though they sounded old, because sounds don't change over time.
>>320965578
yes, we love how retarded the NPCs look
its perfect emulation of genetic mutants from medieval times
i would be amazed if they announce the release date in the next 3 years
I just want the game easier to mod. Modding on MnB in general was a complete shitshow.
>>320969143
You'll play them anon, I'll put in an easter egg just for you.
>>320967538
Don't lose hope knigga
Taleworlds are the biggest cockteases
>>320969226
>not wanting to have a bro also in your campaign world either allying with you or opposing you with their own goals
It'd be amazing desu
>Blue – Sturgia
>Green – Battania
>Pink – Northern Empire
>Orange – Western Empire
>Red – Vlandia
>Brown (just about visible) – Khuzait
Wow, these names are all aweful.
I hope they all are going to change completely.
>>320969241
>Papyrus
>any year
It's the Comic Sans of "medieval" fonts.
>200 years later
Please tell me they aren't making guns a thing.
>>320969582
read the sentence again
>>320969582
wat, I thought this was 200 years prior, a prequel.
>>320969582
its 200 years earlier u blind farmer
>>320969582
Warband is in 1257
Bannerlord is in 1057
>>320969648
>>320969660
>>320969661
O fuck. Excellent.
>>320969487
>giving a shit about mount and blade vanilla setting/story
>>320969582
If you want guns play With Fire and Sword. Then jump out of a window.
>>320969812
Unlike you little shitlord, I'm going to play Bannerlord when it comes out and not only after it's down to 5 bucks.
>>320969487
Nah there's no way they are going to change
Did they ever go into about revamping the deployment system? I know theyre going to make the Diplomacy mod a standard thing in bannerlord but what about PBD?
I fucking hated going into a fight and suddenly all i get are like 2 knights and 50 fucking fodder prisoners against 50 khergit shitlords and I had to wait until half of them died to get a chance to get my actual units.
>>320969226
Co-op multiplayer games are good. Forced multiplayer games that only use the campaign as a launchpad for the deathmatch game mode are not.
>ageing of characters
It is literally happening.
>>320969894
Thank you for doubling down on my poor reading comprehension.
>>320969993
yeah I fucking hope so too, I want a Total War style pre-battle deployment so I can stick whatever soldiers I want, where
>>320963668
Finally, it's been what? 6 months since an update?
RELEASE WHEN?!
>>320963668
Hoping there is a Merc captain who I can recruit Mercs from like Sigurd from the Floris mod. I follow no flag other than my own.
Game of thrones mod when?
Also if you don't already have it, definitely recommend Clash of Kings mod for M&B Warband
>>320969993
>PBD
Is that a mod?
>>320970375
CoK is shit.
The author is a cunt.
>>320970375
Why wont that faggot upload it in the steam workshop? IM TOO RETARDED TO DO MODS MANUALLY JESUS CHRIST
>>320967221
>caring more about gameplay is bad
>wasting money on gwafics cawds so you can mod your waifus into new games
>>320970389
Its actually called "PBOD" but it hasnt been updated for AGES. You either have to download an older MnB Warband or use ones of those full conversion mods that have this function built in already.
The mod is actually really really fucking nice. It does one thing that vanilla SHOULDVE FUCKING HAD and its called fucking brace spears
guess what it does
YEH U GUESSED IT
YOUR UNITS WITH SPEARS ARE ACTUALLY FUCKING USEFUL AGAINST CALVARY. It makes lategame fights against swadians/khergits/sandpeople really fun
>>320969926
So am I, I have more than a fucking thousand hours on this game. But I really never could give a shit about the vanilla setting.
There are mods in every setting there can be, with much more detail and depth than Calradia.
All i hope for is that the gameplay is still as good and the modding tool is improved desu
>>320963668
HNNNNGGGGGHHGHGHGG
what'd the best mod for MB?
>>320971009
A Dance With Rogues.
>>320970513
Cozur is a huge cunt I'll give you that but that doesn't make the mod bad
It's not my thing at all but if you like doing quests and the gritty realistic kind of feel it's fine I guess
Not that you spend much time there but the city scenes look great too
>>320970630
open with winrar
extract into steam>steamapps>common>mount&blade warband>modules
>>320971009
if by mod you mean something that only augments the base game, then floris is by far the best (some folks dont like the new troop trees/animations but everything can be turned on/off).
for full overhaul mods, 1257 AD and pendor are both pretty sweet.
it's a shame the 'official' viking mod was pretty shitty.
>>320971009

>>320971521
thank you based stranger, you could have ridiculed and mocked me, but instead you helped me
>>320971009
Warsword once they finally release that fucking update
>>320971547
>Pendor
Greatest mod.
>>320966463
Console release wasn't even confirmed the only source is some mistranslated turkish interview.
>>320971707
Warsword has been in development longer than Bannerlord, now that I think about it.
>>320967127
>>320966463
>muh console boogeyman
shut the fuck up, its people like you and that mentality that lets game developers do downgrades because lol its not the developers faults its the console. Developers being lazy and cutting down the graphics options in games is the problem not consoles.
>>320963668
Why is there question marks on the units? Do you need spotting?
LESS TALKING, MORE PLAYING
yo where the fuck does that mp4 take place?
Obviously the first image is Empire territory since there's Praven and you can almost make out Suno, but what the fuck is that mp4 showing?
holy fuck can they at least get a new font already
>>320972642
the blog says that the map is roughly 3x bigger and even though parts of it will be reminiscent of warband, the map has changed a bunch, for example it's become "more mountainous" to make for more strategic use of chokepoints, etc
personally i think that is great, the vanilla map in warband is boring as fuck. would love to see overland map terrain play a bigger strategic role in the campaign and it sounds like that's what they are trying to do.
>>320972780
I dont mind the font. Why is everyone so mad with it? Such a weird thing to complain about.
>>320972951
this
Honestly I can't imagine M&B without that shitty font. It's why 1257AD looks off to me.
>>320972951
/v/ has to complain about something.
though i have to say, M&B is probably one of the only games in existence to have near universal praise on /v/, which is impressive.
>>320972897
More chokepoints is fucking glorious
>>320963668
>almost a decade for that
That's actually pretty underwhelming
