Damn great news!
I wish frostbite was open source
>>341686865
thank fuck
after seeing the new sieges I'm hype. They seem to have improved the game in every possible way.
Awesome, I saw the trailer at the PC Gaming Show and was impressed so I'm gonna try Warband when I get my new build done and then possibly buy this one. Good devs deserve the shekels.
>>341686865
>mfw waiting for warsword conquest 2 in this engine
And holy fuck the type of battles people can film with their new recording system.
>>341686865
Holy shit that's amazing. Can't wait to see what comes of it.
>>341686865
I've seen how sieges look fucking amazing but what have they done to improve combat? In my opinion MaB could yse some grizzly kill animations to spice up the combat.
>>341688665
>waiting for warsword conquest 2
It'll probably never happen because of this guy.
thank god I hate fucking swords. will have me an ak-47 any time of the day
>>341689281
Jesus christ what a fucking faggot. Oh well I'm sure a more thick-skin modding team can make a better Warsword mod or even a 40k mod with the engine and source code.
This is unrelated the the game (I've never played M&B), but I feel like I need to point it out every time I see it.
The cobblestone texture on the ground in that image is a free download from CGTextures.com, and has been used in like, 600 other games (Including TW3).
That's all.
>>341689281
he's not the main developer, he's just a turboautist who "helps" mod teams with coding sometimes
>>341689972
What is he even bitching about in the screencap? People ask him too many questions about coding?
Releaaase date wheeeennn
>>341689195
Honestly, combat is exactly the same lovable shitfest it is in Warband. You're just still gonna run in with a two-hander, inches away from each other, swinging wildly.
>>341690259
>he hses two handers
Nigga I go in with my Millitary machete and kite shield along with crossbow and I make plebs eat shit.

>>341686865
>open source engine
Because having a mod for a limited engine like skyrim is old school
Based Turks stepping up their game again
I hope they either leave the archery physics alone or only improve on them if are absolutely sure they can make a real improvement. The archery in warband was fantastic.
Can't wait to roll horse archer character in Bannerlord and snipe bitches from horseback
>>341690706
DEUS VULT Simulator 2.0!
>>341690510
Yeah most autists are never comprehensible so I believe you. Also these Devs can take their time but never be in the dark for too long or you'll fade away in relevancy.
>>341690772
In this video
>>341690510
it looks like archery hasn't changed much but you can tell that arrows seem to be affected by gravity more than in Warband. Not that that's a major change (it's simple to modify that even in Warband) but it's the only difference I notice
>>341691056
fuck meant to link
>>341690706
>>341690706
I guess no more winning 10 vs 1000 sieges any more
>>341686865
>This game will last forever.
Just like Warband right?
>>341691720
Warband is extremely limited compared to what they said they have planned for Bannerlord
>>341690706
HYPE
HYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYPEEEEEEEEEEEE
>>341691720
Despite the tiny ass development team it managed to grow an incredibly large following due to the insane mods and rts/3rd person fighting gameplay.
>>341690706
>catapults stripping battlements from the walls
MY DICK IS THROBBING
>>341690706
>http://www.pcgamesn.com/mount-blade-ii-bannerlord/mount-and-blade-2-mods
No more ladder slogs, finally!
I know it's unlikely because the game isn't designed with it in mind, but imagine if Bannerlord had VR. That would probably convince me to pick up a set.
>>341686865
>Modding has been a part of Mount & Blade 2 since the start of development
If you want to make a successful game, this is the first step. I'm surprised how few people have caught on to this.
>We have made our own engine and will release our entire engine to the modders, along with the source code of the game. So they will be able to make whatever they want with the game.”
Doom did exactly the same thing, it's still being played extensively ~23 years later. Massive respect.
>>341692332
I don't know how well you could translate the combat system to being used with VR.
>>341692446
Because it interferes with the AAA artist propa...vision. That is why they stick Denuvo to Dragon Age Cisquisition so you can't have an option to straighten the ugly elven rogue out or have pegging sex with Dorian.
>open source
Damn . . .
Does this mean we could see ports to other platforms and improved graphics / physics in the future?
Shit b cray.
>>341692446
>If you want to make a successful game, this is the first step.
Yeah, but how are you supposed to cash in with sequels, genius?
>>341692446
What I like about Doom is that it gets ported to fucking everything to see if a thing works or not. When I set up homebrew on my 3DS, the starter kit included Doom.
>>341692834
Youmake an excellent product that will continue to sell healthy amounts years after it's released, and don't rely on shitting out sequels as your revenue stream.
It's simple, really.
>>341692834
By adding more expansions like Napoleon, ww1 feudal japan etc. Hell they can even do a rome one too and they all add unique mechanics and animations.
>>341690706
That looks awesome, but whoever is playing sucks ass.
>shoots over a guy on the wall's head 5 times in a row without adjusting aim
>gets killed/cheat healed multiple times swinging sword wildly on the battlements
And after a year only a few hundred people total will be playing it.
>>341693492
The devs are pretty bad, but it would make for a poor gameplay demo if they died before getting inside the castle
>>341693492
Also note he magically heals himself three times...I think it was to continue showing the siege because letting it get cut off by death at e3 presentation would be a bad starter.
>>341693580
Ok, kid.
>throwing machine
>it has a retarded spoon shaped head
STOP DOING THIS
THAT'S NOT HOW IT WORKS
REEEEEEEEEEE
>>341693580
excuse me anon
>>341693580
>Implying
M&B Warband is six years old and still peaks at 10k people a day. You have no clue what you're talking about.
>>341693894
anon not all catapult/mangonel type siege engines used a sling, cups were a thing
>>341691720
24h 10k peak is pretty impressive
>muh dick when trebuchets
>>341689878
So?
Does it look ugly or out of place? No, I don't think so.
Why would game devs saving production money be a bad thing?
>>341691815
>>341692040
>>341694235
What I mean is Warband will have less players after Bannerlord is released
>>341694351
Well no fucking SHIT because the player base will be moving to the superior upgraded Mount and Blade!
>>341694091
Sure, bad siege engine designs probably actually existed; especially in medieval times. But no actual siege engineer ever used them. There are tons of erroneous siege engine designs that were propagated by know-nothing monks that have poisoned pop culture knowledge of siege warfare.
>>341689281
Is this why the second patch hasnt been released? Like, I'm thankful for all the hard work the team has done, but there is some serious bugs that hurt the game, that I was hoping would be fixed in the next Patch. I can't even get my character to ride a horse on the overworld map. I stopped playing it til the next patch. I don't want to start over again.
>>341694757
I quit playing when all the human characters randomly turned ugly and bald. Got rid of my amazing Chaos lord beard.
>>341694520
Can youprove it? I'm curious what makes cup/bowl designs bad and who says they weren't used
>>341695030
Is there any other mods you (or anyone) would recommend? I just started to play the mods, and I love a couple of them. This one and the GoT one.
>>341695214

Fantasy Caladia is my personal favorite because of magic n' shit. Also check out the suprisingly great Star Wars mod.

Forget the hand things, just the goggles for first person gameplay would be amazing.
>>341695087
Ancient and Medieval Siege Weapons by Konstantin Nossov. The cup design has less power/distance. This is a physical fact. Also, it leads to premature spillage because it's a not a secure release system like a siege engine sling is. Anyone who has ever built one of these things can tell you that a spoon design simply does not work.
Also, wheels. That's another fictional bullshit applied to throwing machines by idiot monks.
Absolutely based Turks. It's rare these days to see a sequel that builds on everything that made the original game great and expands on it in the right directions.
>>341695574
That's true, would be cool if not entirely practical sometimes.
>>341695616
Interesting. I will revise my thoughts
>>341686865
>caring about vaporware
>>341696079
>Never played Mount and Blade before
>>341696079
>vaporware
Yeah because they haven't show us gameplay and given a rough estimate for beta access/release
>>341686865
Great, now it just needs to come out.
LITERALLY game of the decade.
>>341696334
Because thats NEVER happened to vaporware before.this game isn't going to be vaporware.
>>341689195
Attacks can now hit multiple people at once, if they are forceful enough
Your attacks will hit and bounce off objects more realistically, no more swinging your sword through part of a tree and still hitting someone on the other side
AI responds to where they were hit better so it looks more realistic.
Apart from that though, its still M&B at its core.
>>341694520
Ladies and gentlemen, behold the face of autism.
>no actual siege engineer ever used them
jesus christ it hurts just to read
>>341693894
Simulating rope is performance intensive unlike a solid physical bits
Thats why they did it
>>341697286
You're right. It's autism. M&B should have things like 15ft wavy swords and huge battle axes because realism is just autism. Also we need more boobplate and castles that look like they belong in Disneyland. Because fuck autism.
>>341697646
>implying the strings on the bows or trebuchet slings are at all physics based
Where does it say they're open sourcing? That's bullshit clickbait
Mod tools do not equal open source engine
>>341697880
It doesnt matter, its still more performance heavy, and when its not physics base it looks like absolute shit.
>>341697843
Not him but grow the fuck up. Using your argumentative bullshit you could say M&B is shit because you dont have to eat a balanced diet.
Realism is only as important as its necessary to maintain suspension of believe within a game. Just because you are so autistic that this minuscule irrelevant detail isnt 100000% historically accurate in a non historical game does not mean the game is shit and its the same as running around with dildos and rocket launchers.
WHO /RHODOK/ HERE!

>>341698574
You can keep using your totally irrelevant over the top comparison all you want, all you're doing is proving you're autistic.
>>341698574
not him but how many people do you think are aware of the finer points of medieval siege weapons, it's not as ridiculous as having fantasy shit in the game like you're implying, it's a minor detail that doesn't affect gameplay
>>341698241
>not being Swadian master race
Fucking pleb.
>>341698574
I agree
FUCK how stupid this fucking series is. Did you fucking know there isnt actually a 1:1 day night cycle? Its fucking sped up. Fucking utter shit, fuck this unrealistic game.

>yfw the good guys won
>>341698892
Its pretty amazing how quickly the whole Bethesda modding scene died. Even the top rated mods for FO4 are utter rubbish.
>>341698665
It's not an over the top comparison. In fact, Cloud's buster sword would make a more effective weapon than a spoon head onager.
>>341698716
It's not a finer point. The spoon head onager is a literal fantasy weapon. It's the equivalent of putting a revolver cylinder on an ak-47.

Keep telling yourself that, all your comparison are stupid as shit and you know it.
>>341699141
I'm really fucking mad about it.
I was expecting the Geck to make settlements and factions actually fun yet no ones done anything worthwhile with it, and Bethesda is literally selling Settlement mods as DLC now.
>>341699358
At least Bethesda will be the one who pays for it in the long run. Losing the entire modding scene is a serious blow to their games ability to sell.

>more arms = more power right

Oh yeah I remember thinking that was weird since there's a perfect system in place for SM power armor now.

move on and talk about the game or just leave the thread
>>341701392
Well it is the biggest pop-culture related siege that exists in recent memory that I can think of
>>341701521
Nah, the point is real. Difference is that you're getting riled up while I'm just making fun of you.
>>341701392
I hope so. That'd be great.
On a similar vein I hope that fantasy mods for settings like Warhammer, LOTR, etc. are able to do things like magic and magical/giant creatures and mounts better than in Warband, because in Warband almost all "magic" is just a special throwing weapon maybe with some special AOE effects on it and the creatures all look terrible and usually have wonky hitboxes.
>>341702096
no one is getting riled up except you dude, the fact that you don't see that is sad.
>>341695525
And you don't attack it.
>>341686865
Holy shit, that guy's hair is NOT a realistic medieval haircut.. How is anyone supposed to keep their immersion like this? Fuck, why not just put it spiky Final Fantasy anime hair while you're at it? What a shit game.

>>341694351
Well if Warband has more players than Bannerlord then there's something wrong with the sequel. See: Dark Souls 1 vs Dark Souls 2 despite Dark Souls 1's shit port.

Woops, sorry anon the triggered autist is the fag posting thr siege weaponry. Apologies.

Gekokujo is a solid mod even if you're not a total weeb, one of the better complete makeover mods I've seen out there.
I'd love recommendations on good vanilla expansions though, I like the default map and factions there just needs to be more troop and armor variety. Diplomacy is great, but not enough.

Here's a fun one: cannons were introduced in the 12th century in Europe and even earlier in the east. Therefore, given M&B's given technology level based on weapons and armors, it would be completely logical for them to introduce bombards.
Bombard cannons were not set on wheeled wagons due to a variety of factors
1. The metal used had to be made incredibly thick to withstand the gun powder explosion, this made them insanely heavy and incapable of being carriage'd
2. They were muzzle loading and prone to misfire.
Therefore, bombard camps were introduced. These were essentially fixed points where an angled pit was dung for the bombard to be laid. Around it, other pits were dug for the crew to jump in when the cannon was ready to fire (for safety). Additionally, a fence perimeter was built for protection against enemy raids. Finally, a swinging gate was constructed to project the bombard loading crew; it could be swung open when the cannon was ready to fire.

oh boy not this shit again
>you will never be a roman soldier raiding an enemy castle wall via sambuca injection
>not even in M&BII because they aren't any sambuca engines
>>341704114
I think the presence of actual firearms between 12th-14th century Europe is why the developers decided to take the game back further in time. Warband if I remember right starts in 1135AD or something right? Certainly there would be a bombard or two lying around unless there was no far East at the time or no connections were made.
I say this because Fire and Sword was a flop of sorts compared to Warband so I think the developers wanted to ignore firearms (Napoleonic Wars not withstanding).
I could be wrong though, maybe they just wanted an excuse to have semi-Roman factions/armor.
>>341686865
i guess they have to do something for us now that they're selling us the same game for the 4th time.
I'm afraid the siege will be hurtful to the game, since it would essentially make attacking a joke. Get a couple catapults/trebuchets and don't let the army charge until all the soldiers on the walls are dead due to explosions that they can't do shit about
>>341704316
>game has a skill/reflex based parrying system

>this one dumbass who bought the fake archaeolog ruse that there was only one type of large ballistic weaponry ever used in the world
Go shitpost in one of the Overwatch threads, Aussie.
>>341696974
Those all sounds solid, and I did see somewhere that the animations have been improved as well to seem a bit more fluid. I really think that's all M&B needed, just a touch more polish and some more core features and that's exactly what Bannerlord seems to be doing.
>>341704694
Defenders also have some weapons that can take down siege weaponsI'm hoping
>>341704597
Well that's a shame because gun powder is fun. It's a good thing to remember that bombard cannons predate actual firearms by quite a while. So there was a time when the only gun powder based weaponry being used was incredibly stationary/slow firing siege cannons and small hand grenades/petards.
>>341704694
>I'll just intentionally gimp myself so I'm completely vulnerable to projectiles and attacks from more than one direction at the same time
I love Warband's combat and think anyone who can't manual block is a shitter, but using shields does not mean you're a scrub
>>341704694
It's not like siege engines were insta-win in real life, I'm sure they can balance it.
>>341704694
there is defense siege
>>341704965
Yeah I wouldn't hate bombards at all and I think they would be an awesome siege addition, but people suddenly had guns then we'd just get fire and sword all over again and you could either slaughter 10,000 hussars with a handful of musketeers, or lose to a few villagers with rusty muskets.
>M&B will never feature one of the most important aspects of siege warfare: undermining
I'd like to see some recreations of famous medieval fortifications in Bannerlord mods.
>>341686865
I never thought I could be hyped about a game again until we started seeing this flood of bannerlord intro. And every fucking day I think it can't get any better. Then this shit happens. What the fuck taleworlds.

>>341704994
You're actually faster to block and attack in melee without a shield
You're protected against projectiles and don't need directional with a shield
1h weapon with no shield is a viable strategy

Didn't those jews get rekt by Romans?
>>341706423
I'm sure it could be yeah, modders have done quite a lot with much less. It may still even be possible in game to take down walls themselves with siege equipment, we just don't really know yet. I imagine it might be an issue of balance in game or it might ruin all the work they put into ram/ladder/tower animations if everyone is just going to spam catapults and trebuchets when they can.
How bad is the Viking Conquest DLC? I'll probably get it to hold me over until Bannerlord is released.
>>341706643
That's what everyone is assuming, yeah
>>341706631
I'm aware, although I would say that if you forgo a shield then you may as well go the extra mile and take a two handed weapon or a polearm instead for the benefits that that carries (more damage/reach etc.) but of course that doesn't mean that 1h no shield isn't viable
>>341706768
I heard it got mostly fixed and all the negative reviews are old poor reviews when it could barely run. It works like a charm now for me anyways and I think its a nice entry into the series.
>>341686865
I fucking love these guys. This game cant come soon enough.
>>341706468
Okay
>set up blockade so you cant get resources
>send out men on horses to rape and pillage everything for a thousand miles around the castle
>every other day launch in some dead bodies with diseases
Have fun. We'll spend the next few years just doing this until we get to walk in and take it or you surrender.
>>341706423
Napoopan already has (shitty) destructible walls.
>>341706904
Vs NPCs I'd prefer a big 1 hit killer so I can go siege mode but online vs players I'll take the 1h sword or the war spear because it's just as fast as a 1h sword
>>341706904
The only thing that makes me mad about this webm is the other bot allying with the first bot against the player.
>>341707017
>not just building a fucking ramp to the top
This is why you're not a leading a Roman legion
>>341707149
Valid point. I think that spears are underrated in (public) MP, but then again most of the population is scrubs who don't understand the combat or know what teamwork is.
>>341707304
I think that the bots stop doing anything once the player gets knocked out in the arena. Not sure, I don't play much anymore.
>>341704114
>that time they used a bombard in Junketsu no Maria
>>341707603
>I think that the bots stop doing anything once the player gets knocked out in the arena
Nah, if a bot targets another bot they'll keep fighting even if the player dies.
Sometimes random alliances happen, and you get ganged up on.
>>341707603
The best fun I ever had was a sickening display of me getting that thing where you swing he same direction as your opponent and block them
Their whole team was using zweihanders and coming up onto our battlements, I had just a sabre and swung twice as fast as any of them
It kinda went block-swing-block-swing on each guy until their whole team was down and I had a gorillion dollars
>>341707803
Chamber locking, you mean? Heh yeah it's pretty neat when it happens, although I've never managed to do it voluntarily
>>341707909
It was just a timing thing
happened literally every other swing and they didn't get a single hit on me
I couldn't have done it like that again if we rehearsed it for years
>>341698560Are there sex mods for warband?
>>341708075
With its modular nature? I doubt it.
Bonerlord won't have that restriction, though.
>>341708075
A shitty 'you got captured and raped' text mod.
>>341708172
But will I be able to use the character creation system to sculpt the perfect dong? This is important.
>>341708172
>>341708075
>>341708243There is one that I know of, with animations, it's an extension of some chinese themed mod.
It's terrifying.
>>341706768
Most of the shit talking was from when it got released and was buggy as shit.
I picked it up in 2015 after they 'reworked' it and have spent more time playing it than others. Because of the setting there is little to no Archery or Cavalry so it makes actual infantry / skirmish tactics viable, plus the additional options in managing your units is really nice.
I never played the 'story' mode though, which i see most people talk about. Ship combat is rickety as fuck but still pretty fun.
>>341708172
A pity. It was hilarious to see how warbands romance system was actually significantly deeper than most AAA rpgs on the market. It was a little shitty that they were all cut and dry but ultimately it ended with far more interesting stories than romance in a game like skyrim or whatever bioware puts out.
>>341686865
Ladies & Gentlemen this is a PSA that the creator of "A Clash of Kings" Game of Thrones mod for Warband is currently developing the Bannerlord version.
>>341704895
They have ballistae. Additionally they mentioned fire damage is a thing and we saw fire arrows, so I'm assuming all siege engines can be destroyed by those. At least I'm hoping it's not limited to seige towers.
>>341706768
The online was amazing, but its totally dead now
>>341703390
>see that image
>start imagining a mod during the hellenistic era, with phalanx formations, greek fuckboys, roman crazys & celt cucks everywhere.
Oh god I want it.
>>341708386
I suspect it's terrifying because of the poor quality of the animations and not terrifying because of the non-existant humanity of chinamen

Hell there's still castles that are unwinnable sieges because you cant climb onto the fucking walls due to some giant ass speed bump shit in the way.

Couldnt you steal/runaway with brides and shit? You also did all this poetry shit and had to visit her and other stuff.

Nope, but developers can still do a lot of time-consuming prep work like creating higher quality models, textures, sounds etc to speed up the process pre-release.

FUKKKKK
>>341709747
Yeah since it fucks your relations with the brother/father IIRC also with the king.
>>341705215
even worse, the game wont even include moats, a fundemental feature of siege defence, especially to protect against undermining
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Siege_of_Tyre_(332_BC)
WHEN?
Any news on the village management aspect of the game? I'd love for some 4x-abilities
(have a mountain village and build a mine, have a forest village and build a charcoal burner, build a road between those two villages and a third village with a smithy => your soldiers now have access to better-quality weapons and armor)

Although the only thing that confused me was why he didn't lift the very obvious bar holding the gate closed. It would have been cool to see. Still, I've never been so hyped about a sequel before. This improves upon everything we wanted to have improved without trying to be radically different from what made everyone love Warband. Also, open source.

That's awesome

I'd be surprised, though.

>>341712331
Just look up Masada.
>>341711198
I plugged in my 360 controller to see how warband would play on one and good god that was the worst thing I've ever played
I know they're porting warband to consoles but how the fuck will that work? It felt terrible
>>341686865
>We have made our own engine and will release our entire engine to the modders, along with the source code of the game.
.. that's actually day 1 buy/preorder kinda shit right there.
Wow.
>>341689281
I always loathed this cunts. Correct me if I am wrong but I remember there was this one Sephiroth obsessed faggot in the JK modding community who would snap at the drop of a post.
>>341711198
Appearently yes,but AFTER the pc version,which we don't even know the exact release date so prepare to wait for a long time.
>>341712531
what? it does support controller? how the fuck you navigate with all the menu, map, and stuffs?
>>341686865

>>341712764
the controls are fine
>>341692751
>Does this mean we could see ports to other platforms
Linux.. maybe. Otherwise I doubt it and only linux because someone is crazy enough to do it.
Porting to a console is $$$.
They're not giving away their game for free. You can't profit off their source. It's not the same as open source.
>>341712708
Well I didnt try the menus but in game you're able to remap everything to a controller. I was playing some Napoleon when I did this so there's that too
try it out if you're feeling extra masochistic
>>341712764
>not playing mp

It probably will, but what's the fucking point to play m&b without any mods?
>>341712854

Can someone explain the Moun&Blade games to me?
What do you do in these games, is it kinda like Chivalry? Or is it mainly single player?
Asking because I could get the whole bunch on GoG atm..

>>341713130
no we're merely here as a jest
>>341713172
This is my problem.
What youre saying doesnt help me at all, like what is the goal in the game?
Is it just a medieval sandbox?
>>341713269
yep it's a medieval sandbox.
the goal is to conquer the whole land. or not.
it's up to you.
I want to play Warband but every time I load it up the cursor is frozen. Bought the game months ago and none of the solutions online have helped.
Proper spearwall mechanics when.
>>341713269
>is mountain blade a sandbox with no real end goals beyond conquer the world/genocide
yes
>>341713269
your goal is literally whatever you want it to be
technically you "win" if your faction conquers the entire map but it doesn't give you anything and you can do whatever you want even after that
>>341713130
It's essentially a huge board game. The cracks and repetition show after 150 hours.
>>341713269
Just buy the game you fuck. It is one of the few titles almost unanimously loved by /v/. You'd have to be a raging faggot to not fall in love with it.

Singleplayer mode, start as a commoner or disgraced noble. Earn money and prestige and experience until you are able to command large armies and bring kings to their knees. You can make money through selling prisoners, looting dead enemy soldiers, owning land, raiding villages, or trading goods. Walled castles and cities are hugely important because you can station troops there, gain taxes, and proclaim your own kingdom after taking them.
Combat is less flashy, but arguably more complex than chivalry. The multiplayer scene is alive and pretty diverse with lots of mods.
Also warband is one of the most modded games in the history, though differently so to something like Skyrim or Oblivion. Each mod is typically a unique version of the game in it's own right, to lesser or greater complexity. Some mods change the game to a fantasy setting or a real world historical one. Some mods are about a purely multiplayer experience while others are single player bonanzas.
Try it out and see if it is for you, but seriously Mount and Blade is a must try for anyone.
>>341688093
Why is everyone saying that.
It literally plays exactly the same as M&B1, even the combat animations are the same.
>>341713267
you bloody well know what i mean
just wondering if the tales of yonder are truth, that mortals inhibited by autismus maximus spend years worth of eves mounting and blading, that the essence and feel of mounting and blading is pure and unrefined bliss, that mounting and blading will indeed solve all crises that may affect my soul, and still journey yet further than all that
that a lowly squire such as myself may begin the quest anew, entirely dumbfounded, yet astutely unstoppable in the path of educating myself on the contents of mounting and blading over the course of no less than a fortknights worth of effort, and indeed, that fortnight would cover naught but the basics!
>>341713621
fuck. how about gl tools? I heard some people successfully run half life on normal android phones with gl tools.
>>341713724
Are you implying that's a bad thing? Why would they fix what isn't broken?
Look how Killing Floor 2 turned out when they tried that.
>>341713724
>It literally plays exactly the same as M&B1
Well, it's a sequel so I hope it plays the same
>animations
They made new motion captured animations for the whole game
>>341713737
It's a great game, but it's lacking in certain aspects.
It would gain a lot from having better diplomacy and some sort of random events to spice things up.
pray tell, which mount n blade should i attempt first?

Why isn't mountain blade a kart racer or an RTS or an ASSFAGGOTS? Why does everything have to be the same?
>>341713920
Warband only
>>341713920
Warband is essentially a straight upgrade from the first game and is what everyone currently plays. The only reason to get the original is for some mods that were never ported to Warband. Opinions are mixed on WFAS and I wouldn't recommend it as a first M&B game. Warband is the one to get.
>>341713724
Watch closely. The improvements to the gameplay are minor, but massive in the scheme of things. It's essentially what everyone wanted. Sword strikes can carry through multiple enemies, blocking appears to be working more precisely, pathfinding for the AI is better (though admittedly you can still see some problems in the gameplay footage), sieges are no longer just set scenes where you approach a ladder or a siege tower and then engage in an eternal scrum. Hell, the fact that you can destroy part of the fortifications with the catapult is huge for those people who wanted it.

Personally I think so, but the Diplomacy mod is also commonly recommended to beginners as it only includes gameplay improvements and a lot of bug fixes and doesn't change the base game experience very much, which I think is what you want for your first time playing.
>>341714234
Armagan talks about coop in this interview.
https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2016/04/28/mount-and-blade-2-bannerlord-interview/
>>341714140
The only mod I'd recommend to anyone starting out is Diplomacy. It makes most of the activities of being a lord much easier, giving you extra options without radically changing gameplay or balance.
>>341699141
That's because FO4 is utter rubbish and you can't build a city on a trash heap

>>341714234
No. They said that it is something that they have considered looking at but it's not on the table now because of how it would drastically change then entire way the world map is builtand also because it's a completely retarded idea holy shit how could you possibly think that it would be a good feature

Honestly yes, Warsword runs like shit for me. These are my specs if you're curious.
Warband is far more demanding on your CPU than your GPU
>>341715150
Damn. Maybe I'll try a different mod then. I haven't touched anything but Warsword since I upgraded my rig, but if you're able to run 600+ battles on 60fps, I should be fine.
Reminder that if you're one of those that whines about "muh spammers" in multiplayer, they spam because you let them. Spamming is a low-tier technique that is easy to defeat.

Imagine a game where you can start with literally nothing and end with you becoming king. And when I say nothing I mean NOTHING. And when I say become king, I don't mean do some story shit where "you're the hero" because you're the player and the deck is stacked in your favor. No, every NPC in the world with a name is just as much "the player" as you are. And even unnamed mooks still have to fly by the same rules.

This.

Strange sword named nothing personnel.
I hope hidden strange equipment is back. Gives more reasons to explore the cities.

They don't want sieges to last forever.

Frank is a good man, he lurks the /vg/ thread too
>>341706631
Maybe in a deathmatch. Not in a siege.
>>341717882
He wears extremely dorky glasses from the 1970s
>>341717882
Good. I'd rather have no hype at all for maximum enjoyment.

I have found what this game needs to improve it's combat
Stances and different fighting styles
Think about it
Wider swings for groups
Stabs from all directionsNow that stabs and swings have different speed modifiers why not
Slower attacks that have boosts against shieldsbecause fuck you I won't use an axe just because of you
Spears now viable on ground as well
>>341718298
What? Can I marry in this game?
>>341718791
you can in warband but it doesn't really do much
I expect it will give you way more options in Bannerlord

Fuck
>>341716657
Not even the same genre you casual fucktard
Looks like they did nothing to fix the broken combat. That's a shame.
>>341719829
except the combat is one of the best features
>>341719829
Here's your (you)

I agree, that's the best thing it has going for it .

>enemies still slowly walk backwards away from you with their sword raised en masse
it's the little things
>>341690259
>inches away from each other, swinging wildly
i think, that aspect for example could be changed
it doesn't have to be much. just something like a shortsword moving more freely in a crowded area than e.g. a two-handed bastard sword. it would at least make the combat a bit deeper
>>341707653
Your .gif was the best part of the series and it just went downhill from there
Fuck them for using the 100 Years War as a setting and not using any historical places, people, or battles. They could have used any war between two Christian powers that lasted for a few years, and, with exceptions of changing a few names and the one or two references, they wouldn't need to change shit. I appreciate that they went for more realistic depictions of 15th century warfare, but that doesn't stop the plot from dunking to the ground and being pure shit
Uhhh I saw a vague map of the lands and they seem to be in the wrong order or am I just viewing it wrong.
Is Carribean! any good? I heard Blood and Gold made it more fun
>>341722010
Honestly I cant get into it, even after Blood and Gold. The Ship combat is just not fun and takes up more of the game then normal battles. Also seems like its a real bitch starting out, but maybe I was just bad at it.

Opinions aside, has co-op campaign been mentioned?
>>341723180
Hinted at, but not confirmed.
>>341723245
Ah... not sure if that's a good or bad thing. Still, going to cross my fingers for it.
>>341716990
All I could ask for is seasons, there's too little snow on that map
>>341723180
God I fucking hate that shit. I hope not.

Why doesn't religion play a bigger part in these games?
>>341689195
Please no. Kill animations would completely destroy the flow of combat.
Goddamn this is the only game I've looked forward to in about 5 years.
It better be gud, and so far it looks really fucking good.
Thank you based turks for restoring my hope in videogames
