Why aren't you playing Mount and Blade: the MMO made by former CD Projekt Red developers /v/?

Territorial control, PVP sandbox design, emphasis on player interaction

It's on Steam now

why havent they released their game after 2 years of being early access

What? They've been selling it on their site in pre-alpha since early 2015

You must be one of those "where's muh star citizen its been 3 years already!!!!!!11" fags

>>
>>340609427
Is it just like an MMO open world? Will I be able to run to a place where people are fighting and join in.
If it's an MMO does that mean I'm locked out of actually being useful against players who've played longer due to things like stats or levels?
>>
>>340609427

You answered your own question. I'll be cold in the ground before that shit infects my computer.

Now, when GOG picks it up...
>>
>>340610852
You can do whatever you want from the start, but it's Morrowind-esque leveling where you get better by doing the thing you want to do

Sure, there's skill/stats to take into account, but why should you be able to be completely viable after 5 minutes of playing? I can't walk into a gym for the first time in 5 years and lift 400lb weights

>>340611053
DRM free on their website.
>>
>>340611215
>I can't walk into a gym for the first time in 5 years and lift 400lb weights
That's a bullshit comparison and you know it.
It's like if you spent years in a gym, and then decided to switch gyms and you walk in being unable to lift the bigger weights because you haven't spent enough time lifting the smaller ones.
>>
>>340610793
what exactly are you trying to say? people who played uo and swg are the ones most likely to never touch an mmo again. they're all fucking trash
>>
>>340611215
Last time I bought a game from a publisher that was heavily advertising being on Steam, it was buggy as shit and all the fixes recommended I get Steam.
>>
>>340611356
But this isn't like the other MMOs you played considering it's a PVP sandbox that plays like a mixture of EVE Online and Mount and Blade.

>>340611386
That's why Star Citizen, the thing most resembling EVE and UO in a long ass time got funded 100Million dollars right?
>>
>>340609427
>Early access
Nope.
Call me when the final version is released
>>
but i can already play m&b multiplayer
>>
>>340609427
Because those games usually sound fun on paper but are boring as fuck to play.
>>
>>340611215
>I can't walk into a gym for the first time in 5 years and lift 400lb weights

That's bullshit, if your game is geared around PvP than an early level build should at least be somewhat viable against higher level players. Otherwise you just segment the playerbase.
>>
>>340609427
Because every single one of these games sums up your experience as being either
1. A guild leader dick who orders everyone around
2. A slave to the guild leader

Because you cant progress on your own enough to make any impact and these games NEVER have any incentives for independence or small groups, meaning the only way to actually make progress is to join the biggest blob of faggots and blob even harder.

star citizen is probably just a money laundering front for christ robert's wife's drug smuggling operation. people who actually invested money in that vaporware without any kind of security or possibility for returns are retards
>>
>>340611990
I've had a significantly better return on Kickstarter games than I have had with the AAA MMO releases for the last 12 years since WoW came out

I'll gladly put my money on the line to get something remotely interesting, and since I am a smart consumer, I judge each crowdfunded project on its merits and that's why I have yet to be burned.

I'm not giving my money to babby's first unity project and I have no sympathy to anyone that does.

Not really its more or less blunt defense and slice defense and stamina. Plus you can have to get a good play style of your own in combat. I've seen scrubs already from the starting zone kicking the other factions ass with some bad ass armor meant to block slice weapons. Plus if you think you could just switch off and on think again changing gear even in a town or while not even in combat takes a couple of seconds. I'm really liking it more about skill more than levels and gear just think chivalry: medival warfare mixed with an mmo it's pretty much that
>>
>>340612138
>open world being a bad thing in a MMO
I guess I missed the MMOs that take place entirely in corridors

>>340611693
You can if you're skilled enough but you're not going to have great armor and weapons going in 5 minutes after character creation and expecting to do so is retarded
>>
>>340612347
>replying to 25% of a post

>>340612107
i'm sure you do feel justified in putting money towards it. no matter how you slice it though it's a terrible financial decision. you're funding a game's development and you don't even get any kind of financial returns. i understand the potential of the game is your return, but it's still financially stupid
>>
There's no magic though, is there?
>>
This is a pretty flooded market and Mount & blade with more downtime doesn't really appeal to me.
>>
>>340612138
So far all I'm hating is the crafting but hey I bet I'll just find better loot in those treasure boxes I'm finding already got a good blunt weapon from one

Says the formal release should be by the end of 2017.

I can wait.

There is magic but it's more Tolkien fantasy than mages and druids running around everywhere

If there is magic, it'll be subdued.

Seems a bit fun, actually.

But how's the latency/lag of the whole thing? These hit-detection games can be absolutely shite if that's not working properly.
>>
Can you play as a woman?
>>
>>340612979
The game is literally not even close to M&B, maybe the setting of the game, which is generic as hell and doesn't come with anything special.

>>340613148
Shill
>>
>>340612914
that's you. i haven't played an mmo in almost a decade. i followed the next up and comming sandboxes on mmorpg.com for a few years after swg died and nothing ever came of it. just let go and live with the memories instead of trying to rekindle that spark
>>
>>340613205
What? Fuck off, how is that even shilling? I'm asking a question about the game you fucking retard.
>>
>>340613148
So far I've not had much issue with it. On occasion I get a lil lag and get beat up a bit but it's once every hour with my experience
>>
OP this shit has fucking nothing to do with mount and blade. There is a hotbar.
This is exactly like all the other "unique" "innovative" "sandbox PvP-Focused Survival" Early Access games.

Ok I was interested, but now nah
I could get into this game, but then they would introduce whores and I would drop it anyways
>>
>>340613563
But whores are a must in a medieval setting.
>>
>>340613563
Well I have seen female npcs if your afraid of whored up armor and there actually just wearing the attire from that time. They wanted it to be as realistic to the era as possible so I doubt females in boob plate armor and flesh expose is gonna happen
>>
this looks like one of those games where your options are
>get with a group of friends and murder solo people
>be a solo person and get murdered
>join some "guild" where you do a bunch of boring shit while the group of friends leading it has fun
>>
>>340613803
I get that vibe too, anon.
After watching some videos that's exactly what I see as well.
>>
>>340613656
whores - yes
le strong independant wymyn - no
If only one game did it right and you could play as a cute girl that lives peacefully in the village, pick berries and help your farmer father.
Suddenly your village gets raided, you try to hide, but they find you and for the rest of the game you have act like a slut for men that burned down your home
I would play it
Not as a girl, I am not THAT perverted, but I would play it

Social media marketing is big business but here you don't even need to pay to do it, you literally just pretend to be an anon and post about your game and people bite. It's easy.

Find it funny how everytime someone brings up marketing in an obvious marketing thread this defense always comes up, although usually it's from several posters all at the same time or within a few seconds of each other. Way to be subtle there, guys,
>>
>>340615062
Hm, maybe this anon just wanted to stir some shit up against Bethesda's shitty games? Ever think of that? Or maybe it's just someone with autism trying to start up a discussion about the game using a copy pasted response?
>>
>>340615130
That's just it, you can't be sure it's just not anons stirring shit up and trying to get others to squabble amongst themselves for their amusement, but you can't discount actual viral marketing either especially since 4chan makes it so easy to do with minimal effort.

The only thing like M&B is non-target combat. What the fuck man?
>>
>>340615327
Right? And it's not like M&B started that.
>>
>>340615327
non-target directional combat with massive sieges and territorial control with a fairly in depth economy

Sounds like M&B to me
>>
>>340614556
What's that supposed to even mean? Less grind?

>>340609427
Looks good, id rather play this though https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cC2npitkEmc
