Siege stuff looks sick. Can't wait.
Hopefully For Honor delivers too, I can never get enough of medieval warfare.

>>341200224
Don't set your hopes too high, Warsword can't even manage a stable release on warband
>2 years
I only hope I can run it in my potato, I see that it doesn't look that good compared with mods for Warband. Seeing in the official page that you need at least XP and DX9, I'm excited desu.
A PC exclusive that's gonna be better than every other game at this years E3, and nobody even notices.I completely forgot too lol
>>341197025
I'd give them another 5 years if it meant it was a game I'd be playing for the next 10.
Looking at For Honor at ubis conference after watching the pc conference I wish bannerlord had for honors combat instead of the clunky shit. Oh well I will still enjoy the game.

>>341193824
You see a bunch of defenders retreat to a tower at the end of that siege video. I wonder if they're gonna do multiple stages for these sieges.
>tfw been installing and uninstalling multiple games the past week while trying to find a game to enjoy

I cant wait for bannerlord holy fuck. Hope someone makes a GoT mod for it too, would be amazing with all the new tech
>>341204064
Yeah that had something like that that happened seemingly randomly in warband. Troops retreating to the keep and such. Was kind of lame though, hopefully they expand on it.
>>341193824
Holy shit
Damn son
Praise butter lord
I'm UST happy to know this game will be out someday in the future
>Still looks like complete shit and the animations are again cancer-tier
Why after the milions they got with the others ones cant they "bring up" the production value a bit.
Like holy fuck
>>341193824
this is a next gen game? seriously? the combat and animations, and just the general physics, look like complete shit
I realize that isn't what games are about, but come the fuck on this is ridiculous
>>341205205
>>341205248
beat me to it
>>341205248
show me another game with physics based combat and 400+ AI in one battle or 100+ player multiplayer
>>341205205
Looks pretty good to me m8. They have to make it so an average gaming PC can run a battle with 400 or more troops and not fry.

>>341204064
Will it be seamless? The mod Gekokujo's sieges have you running a gauntlet and breaking down gates to get to the spawn point, it's a step in the right direction and infinitely better than native's ladder chopping
>>341205205
>>341205248

>>341205248
>next gen
Stop this shit. The current gen has been around for years. There is absolutely nothing next about it.
>>341193824
Sieges were probably the biggest problem M&B had, I'm glad they got a huge overhaul.
>>341205205
>>341205248
It looks fine.
I think most of us who enjoy mountain blade just want more gameplay depth, and that's exactly what they're showing off.
Can't wait to see army / kingdom management and overworld traversal.
>>341205205
literally who cares about graphics
they add nothing to gameplay
>>341205205
>>341205248
>I wish they wasted time and resources on making the game just look better instead of improving gameplay and the engine
Depending on how well done politics are this could be the greatest game of all time
If you could for example have coup and win the whole game without having to swing a sword ON TOP of all the badass fighting and castle smashing and army clashing then this game would just be the goto for all things medieval and fantasy
Get some mods for some skins and boom you instantly have a GoT sim or LotR or whatever you want
This could legitimately be the best thing to come out this decade
Get Hype
>mfw I have to waste another 500 hours on the new m&b game
I didn't ask for this ride
>>341207409
They said a while back the basic stuff that was in the Diplomancy mod was going to be in the base game, which is a good start at the very least.

>>341205205
fuck you
I want me some gameplay, goddamnit, mountain blade looks like shit but it still plays fucking fantastic. More gameplay options and more shit for modders to play with = yes please.
>>341208529
They haven't talked about it much, but the previous gameplay vid from a few months ago seemed to show some more complex commands.
>>341208787
>Are you actually fucking retarded
No, but you clearly are. Since you have nothing else to say to that obvious flaw, then I will just assume you have no fucking idea of what you are talking about.
>>341193824
I always get frustrated by these gameplay videos where the player is a complete shitter.

Swarm battles are fun, sure, but I don't play mnb for that.
>>341208990
How am I retarded?
How do i not know what im talking about.
Asking for 3000+ AI in a game like mount and blade is fucking absurd.
>>341209086
You love your troops enough to have a field surgeon, don't you anon?
Don't you?
>>341209005
I'm pretty sure that was just to show the things off. Notice it took 4 seconds for him to dismount a horse. If not intentional it would have meant it was his first time playing.
>>341209086
It's a fucking siege. Attackers will typically have more casualties than defenders.
This is why you need to recruit decent medics/surgeons
>>341208978
I feel like it will be the same
A.I. is so stagnant and imo the most crucial aspect they need to get right for this game otherwise it will be another easy grindfest and you won't be able to feel like a true medieval operator
>>341209005
Mostly done to get good camera shots of visual effects and mechanics.
Wouldn't be much of a trailer if the player does what most MnB players do and become a one man unstoppable machine of swinging and killing.
Which faction does this glorious armor belong to?
>>341209387
>I have no knowledge of videogame design so I will just spout the same shit other anons parrot everyday
top kek... this is just sad.
>>341209086
Sieges in warband were like that too. Sieges IRL as well. Really they should make starving out an enemy a more viable option rather then sieges less bloody.
>>341209624
No clue what the Bannerlord factions are but that looks like a Vaegir equivalent
>>341209484
>>341209516
Oh shit, please tell me they have actual medic units you can recruit this time around?
of course I trained surgery up to the highest because the alternative is grinding around villages for forever to get peasants who will die on your enemies blades the first chance they get.
>>341209624
>>341209842
Probably Sturgians. They are ancestors of the Vaegirs with some Nord stuff mixed in.
>>341209086
I just hope NPC nobles have to go through the same shit instead of MAGICALLY SHOWING UP ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE COUNTRY WITH A HUGEASS ARMY RIGHT AFTER I ANNIHILATED THEM.

Heh nice try, you thinking to know you are talking about i mean.
To a game master like me it's pathetic of you to even attempt to argue me, don't even try.
You've made it obvious you don't know what you are talking about and are just a fool for spouting your inane bullshit. You can fuck off back to 9gag or leddit with your solid opinions buddy.
Here at 4chan we back the talk up with evidence, not just spouting garbage and calling people who call you our game design flawed retards.
Who knows one day you may fit it in here, but until then...
>>341209624
The helmet at least is based on a Vendel helmet, so probably whatever the Nords are.

RTScomplaininganon may be retarded about the justification, but it's not far from truth.
Total War units don't act and can't be modified independently. They're just swarms of samey units that follow a vector field to their destinations, and when they engage, are assigned a target group, and then individual targets within to make the battles look convincing.
You've fallen for the illusion, anon. It's only too bad you can't enjoy things for what they are, and not what you think they should be.
>>341208126
Not with taleworlds budget fucking retard holy shit how dumb are you.

Glad to see nothing has changed or improved in the slightest. Change is scary.
>>341211030

Just as I wanted.

Your right, nothing has been changed or improved in the slightest.
Post Mount and Blade memes
>No boiling oil poured on those invading peons.

>>341211256
I think the better mod tools alone are worth it.
New villages, castles, battle terrains soon fellow raider.
honestly these trailers look pretty dissapointing, everything looks exactly the same as warband but with better graphics. Except for the siege equipment that siege was a textbook warband siege with retarded A.I. mobbing the place.
>>341209582
They could have shown new fighting mechanics.
It seems to be the same as before though but with slightly edited animations.
Also take not of the NPC completely ignoring him and getting killed when he walks down the stairs in gatehouse. Same as in Warband - NPC has aggro someone ontop of wall and does not react to players presense.
I hope they fix this flaw before release
>>341211502
>fire arrows
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zTd_0FRAwOQ
>>341211502
I was expecting that when the player looked up, was mildly disappointed to see just rocks and fire pots
>>341210719
But the game does look good. Not groundbreaking, but pretty.
>>341210725
I eventually did it. It does slow damage to all units inside and prevents healing. It also reduces the population and prosperity of towns.

Why did we need an 11 minute video to tell us the obvious? Fucking serfs.
>>341211915
Yeah I hope so. Definitely not ruled out, probably could be modded in easily anyway, I recall some warband mods having it.
>>341211872

>>341212219
I'll give you that, but the A.I. looks like it acts just as retarded as it did in wb. didn't even see anyone raise their shield as they ran this time around.

Good animations make a world of difference. Especially in a game based on melee combat.
>>341211030
>>combat boils down to "pick an attack and mash it until the AI forgets to block it"
Yeah my only gripe with the game, attack animations and AI needs improvement, this ain't 2007
HOW the FUCK do i get into mountain blade? I've played like 20 hours but it still hasn't "clicked" for me yet. What am I doing wrong? I want to love this game so bad.
>>341212616
No credit need be taken or given in your original post, as the meme arrow suggests a quote.
I didn't find it offensive nor original.
However, I did find the particular quote you used to be witty in context of this churned dairy admiration forum in and of itself.
Surely, you composed it to play upon my expectations, you buttery rascal.
>>341213170
Buy Napoleonic Wars and find a Player vs AI server.
Did they remove the "hurt durr females can't be kings and all males will treat you like shit" patriarchy crap from the game?
Did they add some female lords and vassals to game or its another all men dong party like the last one?
Did they add an option for lords daughters to refuse marriage if he doesn't want or there is still forced rape in the game?(why would they add rape culture to the game in first place is beyond me)
All of you are so deluded with combat and sieges and other gameplay shenanigan that you got completely blinded to stuff that actually matters
>>341213273
Already own it, will definitely check that out. Never played napoleonic wars because i knew it was like only multiplayer and i wanted to get gud before i started playing it. Didn't know there was AI servers. Thanks anon.

Its scientifically proven that Obvious baits get way more replies compared to hidden baits if you continue to argue with people who call your post bait by telling them that they are not arguing and their opinion is discarded
I didn't want to shit up a comfy m&b thread so I just rolled with a one time bait for shits and giggles
It looks like Warband with nicer graphics. There are some new things like the weapons crafting system, improved character creation, and siege equipment, but the combat (which is a huge part of the game) seems to be just about exactly the same. I know it's a work in progress but that seems like something you'd work on at the start of development, not at the end. I'm just getting a bit nervous.
>>341214443
What exactly would you want to have changed about the combat?
>>341213807
>got kidnapped or something so I'd restart.
You need to resist the urge, Mountain Blade is a game that only gets easier in the longterm the more you play that character. Even if you lose an entire army, companions, armour & weapons all at the same time, you're still in a better position to rebuild than you were at gamestart.
Also you can pick up your imprisoned men/lost items by chasing down the party that defeated you so if you're confident or fancy a bit of horse cheese (assuming your horse wasn't taken of course and their army has suffered major casualties too), follow and intercept them before they reach a castle or a city
Can someone help me git gud? I don't understand the combat. Yes, you attack in directions, yes, you block in directions, yes I can read my opponent (most of them) but there are some folks who just shift between all their attack animations rapidly and then their attack seems to go even faster and catch me off guard.
I have 41 ping. I don't know what the fuck I'm doing wrong .
>>341210315
Oh yes
>>341214750
Footwork.
>>341215116
...meaning?
>>341214987
If you block before you execute the attack (before you release left click), it'll cancel the attack and put you in block.
Use this to cancel your attacks and switch to another direction
you can cancel pretty much any attack at any stage, and remember that crossing swords with your enemies doesn't do any damage unless the weapon actually hits them
>>341214987
Look up chamber blocking, it's the holy grail of gitting gud and ignorance will result in your shit getting stomped by experienced played
I just want to play the civil war mod.

>sprouting /pol/ memes

>>341215285
Ok, I'm aware of feinting. These guys will very rapidly shift between all their blocks and attacks, walk just within range of me, the attack won't even hit me and I'll die, then they go through the rest of the animation.
If that better explains it. Like reverse dragging in chiv to an extreme where they can hit me, cancle the animation, then swing again and connect before I can even block it.
This is what blows my mind when people say this game has good combat because of everyone is experiencing THIS then I don't understand the fun. It's only very few people I come across who do it but they'll lead team death matches with like 30:1 kdr.
>>341215335
I know about and how to chamber block. I can hold my own in duel servers very well.

All it needs is the ability to do the same as Skyrim sex mods and Bannerlord will dominate the modding scene for the next 10 years.
This looks the exact same.
I don't mean graphics, but animations.
Could they really not update their animations from the year 2000?
>>341205205
>Still looks like complete shit and the animations are again cancer-tier
>Why after the milions they got with the others ones cant they "bring up" the production value a bit.

I'm actually excited for For Honor for multiplayer and M&B for the single player.
Does that make me wrong?
>>341209705
>I have no knowledge of videogame design
>>341205205
Yeah fuck gameplay lets have more cutscenes and celebrity voice actors.
>>341211124
Why wouldn't you want something better?
They could keep everything the same but at least improve the animations.
The animations are terrible. I could do better with 15 minutes in milkshape.

>>341216635
well, it looks promising but, I can't trust AAA games anymore.
Any chance of a Game of Thrones mod?
Dragons aren't necessary, but playing in westeros is.
>>341216991
There's already one for Warband
>>341216635
well yes because only one of those games will retain a thriving multiplayer scene.
take a guess which one itll be
>>341216731
Because the goofy animations are part of the charm of Mount and Blade in my mind.
>>341216858
FH, then.
Do you not recall myspace?
>>341216991
Warband has more than one iirc, so I'm sure at least one will be made for butterlord.
>>341216991
there are two for Warband, ACOK and WASOIAF(i think that's the name)
Bannerlord will 100% get another one.
Really guys, the only actual thing we truly need is a robust editor with many options that allows modders to actually change the gameplay much more than in Warband.
Native is good to keep us busy until said mods.
>>341198563
god damn those growling voices on warband are top tier comedy
so glad they didn't replace those with nu-shit
also glad the developers are not mindless faggots who listen to idiots with your opinion
many idiots such as yourself are used to getting their way with devs these days.
the taleworld devs are not a team of cucks
will they make it so mounted bowman isn't the only class worth playing?
>>341214750
I'd like it to generally feel more fluid and polished. The combat in Warband was clunky. It worked well but it wasn't very dynamic. For starters kicking should be made more useful and I think some movement options could be nice though that's not required. I don't mean something like wavedashing but Knights moved/hopped around (a little bit) while fighting rather than just waiting to get stabbed. More importantly, half-swording and pommel bashes would be pretty cool. They wouldn't do as much damage against plate as a hammer or something but it might save your life. Other than that, the AI needs some serious improvements. It's way too easy to cheese it and from that video the pathing/grouping up is still pretty bad. Supposedly they've added better Battle Orders already so that's a start.
Warband is fun, but a sequel to it has a lot of potential points of improvement.
>mfw I've never played SP on M&B Warband

FUCK. I WANT THIS.l'agile mod is pretty shit tbhh
>>341217261
One of the first videos we saw of bannerlord had new voicesthey were fucking amazing
>>341217064
You just doomed 2 months of productivity.
>>341217065
I'm hesitant to answer that.
For Honor having a ranked Matchmaking could actually being more folks into the fold.
Mountain blade reminds me of PSO in playerbase, yes they're around. Sometimes in great numbers. But available to me are only 3 servers with decent ping) with the same 50 people on it.
>>341216783
You can solo most of them with a basic horse and a no power draw investment bow
In order of danger soloing it's probably Desert Bandits = Steppe Bandits > Mountain Bandits (think they have crossbows in vanilla?) > Sea Raiders > Forest Bandits > Tundra bandits
There's a power gap after Desert and Steppe Bandits because those two are mounted, they'll fuck you on the battle map and run faster on the overworld if you don't have pathfinding
>sieges are still complete fucking defender advantaged meatgrinder trash
>still cannot just pick up a ladder and move it to a diffferent part of the wall in 2016
I had high hopes but this is fucking stupid
>>341217292
Kicking is as useful in game as it is in real life.
>>341217459
>sieges are still complete fucking defender advantaged meatgrinder trash
Wow who would have thunk?
>>341217459
>>sieges are still complete fucking defender advantaged meatgrinder trash
Just like defensive situations usually are?
>>still cannot just pick up a ladder and move it to a diffferent part of the wall in 2016
No, you can just attack from every angle.
>>341193824
makes me want to play mountain blade again. install the game of thrones mod and become the man who can kill an army of 700 by himself
>>341217292
We do see a guy get kicked off the wall in the gameplay vid. I dont recall if that could happen in Warband.
>>341217351
some are new, but i noticed a lot of old ones too
they kept the old ones appropriately and havent added nu-(faggot) shit anywhere
i agree that all the newstuff is good
including the music
>>341216071
Because not even 4chan autists like rotten /pol/, /r9k/ and /b/ abortion of memes
Now go back to your containment board
I am so hype for this game. No kidding. I always thought Mount and Blade's assault was lacking. I mean, they put catapults outside the castles but you can't use them.
This feels more realistic. and it makes assaults more unpredictable.
>>341217625
the musics that included in gamescom video are top tier
>>341217286
>Not leading the flank as a 2-hander foot commander
Really makes you appreciate mounts if only for an easier time issuing commands without taking projectiles to the face
>>341217080
Sure, say that now, but when the next M&B comes out in 2025 you won't want it to have the same shitty animations or you will be one of the few nostalgia fags putting up with it.
These animations are abysmal.
>>341193824
looks pretty meh 2bh
This will probably be the version that gets it's "dayZ" mod that really starts selling the game.
>>341217794
>he can't issue commands with his right hand
O eye am laffin
I hope they make the combat harder. If you have a horse and a strong sword you can seriously kill an infinite amount of people by just charging your sword and releasing when running through them. Just stay on the edges so your horse doesnt get surrounded and stabbed to death
>>341217810
not him, but the animations are quite good. they also want to make this game toaster friendly, so no complex animations.
>>341217773
agreed
haven't seen anything be shit within bannerlord
its motherfucking perfect
original m&b is the best game of all time
bannerlord looks to be a true successor to this, and even better
>>341217286
There's a reason why the mongolians took over the whole world
>>341217930

>>341218115
Yeah that's the one I was thinking of.
>>341218009
how do turk devs can make a good sequel while other can't?
>>341217930
I hope so. That'd mean better mods and bigger updates.
>>341218269
They take 10 years to do it and it gets a $5 budget.
Animations may suck, but can you mod in new animations?
>>341218354
the mod tools look great.
It's just perfect. I really want Nova Aetas mod in Bannerlord
>>341193824
I've got hype.
>>341218465
Good question. I assume so?
>>341205205
This is legitimately one of my gripes, and I can't take the cocksucking faggots that somehow imply that a video game can't have good animationAND good gameplay, especially on a fucking PC game. No fucking excuses. Still hyped, but fucking hell
>>341217942
But then you're either running forward while monging the mouse about with your elbow or crawling sideways and back which isn't an effective missile defence at all
Do you think multiplayer will be big? Will we have constant online battles with fellow /v/irgins?
>>341218465
Ive never scene a mod that completely overhauls them, but a lot add some of their own. So I would say yes.

>>341193824
>exactly the same as warband
>except better in every way with more ingredients added to the incredible recipe
Thank god that the devs aren't fucking retards who change the core concept of their game for no reason and make the sequel shit. Looking at the gameplay it even feels like warband, except the horses seem to "feel" better when steered or stopped, siege has been completely revamped, you can cut through more than one enemy, there are fire pots and ballistas and shit, spears getting thrown bounce off of stone. It's perfect, when austists start making mods for it it's only ever gonna get better. Maybe get an expansion or two that adds even more stuff.
Just hope they fixed spears
>>341218671
How long does it take you to issue a command? If it's longer than a crossbow reload then you're wrong.
>>341193824
>shitter uses dev powers to heal himself to full health at 4:47
>>341219026
What's wrong with spear? I really never used it, to be honest.
>>341218871
Warband is somehow still alive today so it's almost guaranteed
>>341193824
This image is beyond boring... Brown brown brown brown grey brown...
>>341218871
This is what needs to improve the most for me to consider buying it.
>>341218952
It will be released just after Cities Skyline XboxOne Version.
>>341219183

Never played a mount game. Where do i start or should i wait for this to come out?
>>341219197
You can't take advantage of reach.
>>341218667
The animations are bad, sure, but graphically it looks way better than Bannerlord. Saying it looks like shit is exaggerating quite a bit considering it's made to field hundreds of troops at once.
>>341219197
Spears are basically useless. Some mods remedy this but even then it feels subpar compared to axe/sword/mace. When infantry fights against infantry the guys who don't have spears win every time, since you can't stab with a spear when the AI hugs you(you deal very little damage). They're good for multiplayer, lances are great from horseback but as pikes and spear+shield they're almost completely useless in singleplayer.
>>341219357
Game is at least half a year away optimistically. Try out Warband. There is no point in getting the original as everything in it is contained in Warband.
If you like it, try out the dlc and mods.
>>341219357
Get Warband.
>>341219276
Multiplayer is great though, what are you even talking about? You can find occasional events with a lot of people fighting in formations even on Warband.
>>341219357
Go get warband
>>341219596
>>341219357
I'll add in Warband has an extensive demo too. Couple hours worth of gameplay.
>>341219221
Sounds like the Middle Ages.
>>341219357
1) Get Warband.
2) Play Warband.
3a) If you also want to play the flute / drum while people with muskets and cannons fire around you, get Napoleonic Wars (a multiplayer-only DLC).
3b) If you want to be a Viking get Viking Conquest (Multiplayer and Singleplayer DLC). But I'd just recommend getting the Brytenwalda mod for Warband, made by the same guys.
>>341219159
Fast enough in a battle, but I'm more autistic than the AI when it comes to positioning before the lines clash
>Making sure Shields/spears/pikes take the brunt,
>Valuable shieldless on the flanks
>Cavalry that doesn't siphon off part of the enemy before the charge
>The eternal asspain of horse archer harassment management
All things easily accomplished in relative safety on horseback, on foot you're vulnerable
>>341217326
SP is pretty fun though. There are some really great mods out there, like Prophecy of Pendor. You should seriously think about giving them a go.
Not gonna lie Im really excited for this shit. I hope the city management and business ownership has been improved
Someone pls give me a warband key.
>>341193824
Cautiously hype.I really want to know more about diplomacy and faction management.
>>341219707
I have maybe 6 viable options for servers in my area.

>10/60 players siege
>12/60 players TDM
The others are pw 4.5.
So... Idk what you want me to say. I feel I have a valid complaint. If you tell me to bump my ping filter from 200 to 300 you can just not reply.

Pendor has bandits that are inexplicably well-armored and stronger than almost all lords and they are not rare. If you want a fantasy mod, play Phantasy (for a more grounded experience) or Blood & Steel (for cuhrayzee)

The influence system is a step up at least. Hopefully we'll now be able to get vassals to do as they're told. Being the ruler of a faction in Warband was more akin to running a daycare centre for miscreant children.

When I lived in Europe I had multiple 200/200 servers with either chaotic battles, regulated clan battles or mods. But since I moved to AUS it's basically 2 servers that are either battle or ffa with around 15 ppl. There's also battle events every sunday or so when clans organize themselves and merge from both warband and nw and last for a few hours with huge battles.
It's a regional problem not multiplayer problem, EU and US always have players.
>>341220630
>phantasy
>blood and steel
Both mods are a mess though, PoP is the only "fantasy" mod that's good. Pendor bandits that you're referring to are unique spawns that are supposed to be an endgame challenge to take down.
The mod is a hit and miss though, if you quit early you'll yell that it's shit whenever someone mentions it. But if you stick with it and get through the brutal early game where you just have to learn how to avoid some spawns it gets really fun.

As much as I enjoy playing a rank and file soldier in huge battles I'd be happier with a faster paced medieval game. I don't want m&b to violate their integrity but chiv and the motion sickness inducing gameplay doesn't cut it for me either.

I didn't think I cared that much about this aspect in a M&B game, but I'm really happy about the improved character creation. I'm gonna have a lot of fun screwing around with it.

there's the ancient ones i guess, Rome at War has a nice amount of antiquity gear from all over the place but the SP isn't very developed, Bellum Imperii is more complete but it's still kinda barebones and the imperial setting isn't as interesting. Cool towns though.

You keep your units together so you strike in force when you reach the enemy.
If you lead a disorderly charge, the enemy doesn't have to deal with very many at any one time.

Waifu shitposts happen with shitty shallow games when there's nothing left to discuss and horny faggot teenagers take over. Not because the character creation has been overhauled to the point where models actually start to resemble human beings. And Mountain Blade proved to be a really solid game for half a decade, so I don't think its worth being concerned about the quality of discussion for it. At least not now.

I got caught in a battle against 1200 Swadians, with only 70 men of my own.
It's was crazy. My army spawned with only 10 Rhodok spearmen on the field due to some kind of the proportional deployment mechanic that you never really notice. Half the Swadian deployed force were the lords themselves. The rest were Swadian knights.

Anon.
Besides, the ability to get OHK'd & retreat'd in normal battle DOES make it difficult, so much so that most niggas who play 100% actually have to learn tactics and let their men do the fighting for them.

>>341232786
I mean low damage is fun and all, in a dynasty warriors sort of way. But when you max it out you're forced to take into account every little advantage you can scrape together. It adds so much.

>>341233519
Mount and Blade (not Warband) has Solid&Shade, it's pretty neat.

>>341234921
they said in one of the pcgamer interviews a few months ago that you can find new weapon parts in different factions' territory as well
>>341234929
the mod in that webm is warsword
>>341219197
Spears attack in 1 direction, most weapons attack in 4 (some in only 3). Up/down/left/right. Down or up is a thrust and the other is a swing down.
This means someone could hold down a downward parry block and block every single spear thrust - I think in M&B even if multiple people are thrusting at once.
Also AI facehugging >>341219586
Back when I modded in M&B I came up with a kind of a solution. Long story short was making it so a spear could thrust overhand (Up attack) or underhand (Down attack), but doing so required switching over all these polearms to a slightly different directional system. I forget what happened to them exactly, I think it was that a polearm's up attack was now a down attack and vice versa.
It should be possible, hopefully not too hard, to try and fix it so a spear can thrust two different ways. As long as there is an animation for it or which can be be appropriated for it.
Alternatively if I were adjusting stats I would make spears either have the chance to breakthrough a block modifier (pretty sure that was one in M&B) or just give them really really good thrust damage so as gimped as it is if a spear thrust makes it it fucks someone up.
But you'd have to make sure those spears with the increased thrust damage can't be used on horseback or the charge modifier would turn them into BFG.
>>341234414
That's dope.
There is one good way to fix spears; make them "braceable" so you can keep enemies away without having to actually 'strike' them. Flankers would still get you, but a shield wall would be effective.
Has anyone else noticed the OST is fucking amazing?
https://www.taleworlds.com/en/Games/Bannerlord/Blog/11
The music in the siege video too
>>341235260
>bracing a row of spears just before a cavalry charge
>>341235078
They should include slashing with the tip of the spears.If you people think that you can only thrust with spears you are gravely mistaken.Not only that but you can bash with them and attack with each end if needed.
>>341204956
Happened when you killed a set number of defenders, so you didn't have to kill everyone in the Garrison.
>>341235537
>>341204956
Unless you had the battle size set super high, like 500 or so, then you'd never get to the later stages. Sieges with that many enemies were also near impossible.
Notice the icon for trebuchet
>>341205205
The exact same argument can be said about Fallout 4 and they are a major developer, nota little 10 man studio.

>>341235738
>focus armies on infantry and ranged
>bring fights to villages
>enemy cavalry cant do shit
>>341235474
Yeah I could dig that. Let spears slash one handedly but instead of a massive bat-swing it would just be a quick slash to the left or to the right. Spears with smaller/narrower tips would have higher thrust ratings but much lower slash ratings while spears with long leaf-shaped spearheads would almost match a sword in slash damage.
>>341235615
>Catapult, trebuchet, ballista, fire versions of the first and last
Neat. Also like the ability toa djust pacing, width, ect.
Actually "Pacing" makes me wonder about someone modding in a modest stamina system.

The ancient inhabitants of the British isles used to bury butter in bogs. I've been told it largely survives fresh and not rancid all these years.
That's about as long as you're going to have to wait for Butterlord.

Because it's rather neatand I dunno if the butter made for that 2012 Oxford symposium is really buried with grass and shit or if that is herbs but even if it is grass it looks rather tasty.
http://nordicfoodlab.org/blog/2013/10/bog-butter-a-gastronomic-perspective
The great war of the Swadian-Nords may have been caused by Harlaus hearing rumors of a distant mist shrouded land full of bogs where butter could be mined as abundantly as iron.

>>341236261
It's beta is supposed to come out this year.The game itself is in Q1 2017.They said it in a panel 2 days ago.Even then it was not definitive,just ''hoping''.
>>341236258
he looks like he died nuttin'
i wonder if the formation battles will be able to actually STAY in formation instead of breaking out into mobs as soon as they're within certain range.
coding them to only move in group wouldn't be TOO difficult right? just make them NOT chase out the asshole after he swings at them? that video concerned me a little because i expected NPC not to charge with the weapon above their heads on their own like the last game, and actually hold a spot.
>>341193824
>Warband's sound effects
I hope that's just placeholder.
>>341236830
I remember reading that they were looking at popular mods for inspiration, one of the popular mods is formations and diplomacy, so expect to see that sort of thing.

What do you want to see in Mount & Blade: Bannerlord?
I want to see cuckoldry.
You should be able to marry another lord's wife and run away with her.
Some lords are cuckolds and enjoy the fact that you are sleeping with their wives
"Player! Your fame runs before you! I heard that you have been sleeping with my wife"
"Your relation with Count X has increased from 0 to 5"
Other lords do not enjoy being cuckolded and you lose up to 50 relation with them.
Also, your wife may run away with other men who have bigger and better fiefs that you.
