  The Vigilist will have 3 abilities, like all other classes. Abilities are controlled through Q, E and F. She also has the chiv style melee combat of control; mouse buttons + mouse wheel.

  So you can control your melee and magic at the same time? I wonder if that lets you pull off mad combos. Like LMB into stab into magic.

  When exactly do we get to try the beta?

  Fluid combat is extremely important, so combo’ing between magic and melee is a big part of what we are focusing on now.

  Beta is scheduled for early Summer :)

  @tehKage Do you mean that kicks is no more a thing in Mirage? :(

  I am going to pull the classic “I can neither confirm nor deny” statement. I am sorry :(

  Toronto summer lasts for a glorious afternoon in early August.

  But yes, Beta is still planned to come this (actual) summer.

  @Skindiacus oh I see, sure but I want my own unique skin that I can pay for and nobody else has.

  rare drops

  And also, the community market comes with games with drops. So you can still buy them, except from other players.

  These descriptions give a very narrow insight into the capabilities of each class, the full extent of this is still being worked on a lot and we’re still making big changes to each class and the gameplay mechanics in general to balance the classes out and raising the skill ceiling.

  So basically it’s too early to talk about the specifics of balance as we’re still making big changes to the playstyle of each class, the most difficult balance related thing is actually keep a consistent skill ceiling. Getting the same range out of ranged class as a melee one is very challenging.
  Mirage does have a bigger focus on teamwork but it’s still much like Chivalry in that a single player can really hold their own if they play their cards right.

  We will be implementing class limits but we won’t be using it until we’ve tested all the crazy setups, we don’t actually know if it’s needed yet.

  People are complaining about the artstyle? Honestly, I hardly care as long as the gameplay is solid.

  The only reason the art change could be an issue is if all the maps are too samey.

  Hey Yarnu sorry we missed your question.

  Team Objective mode is the focus in Mirage. If you enjoyed it in Chivalry, be prepared for it in our next game!

  I fully agree mr Oy tbh. TB doesn’t Realise as veterans some of us can spot the same sneaky moves regardless of how
  differently dressed up the salad is ;p
  I still think you know a motif even if very small could be given to players of Chivalry from its day of release who continue
  into Mirage. A loyalty motif or some other nicety .

  Im certainly no coder / developer, but I suppose it will take a good bit of time to fully implement something as deeprooted as a new API. It was the same with DX11, and it will probably be the same with DX12.

  Bohemia Interactive (ArmA Devs) have been doing their investigation into DX12 for a few months now, and they straight up said that they did not find a real advantage in it yet, which may or may not be due to their engine architecture.

  This api stuff is incredibly easy to work with , don ‘t let them baff you with science.
  many moons ago when I was into this stuff making programs that utilised the various Api’s was good fun from
  flashing captions on windows menu driven software , right into the heart of the windows api’s. Plus other Api’
  covering a range of software. Let alone you could even write your own as long as you covered all the arguments
  or calls plus off course knew what you were doing tbh. Its about time this vulkan stuff came alone tbh.

  I don’t see why the combat side would’t retain that legal move. Unless they rebuild the code from the ground up which is admirable tbh.
  Its very humorous to see cartoon animation breaking glichy try hards in 1st or 3 person , who also spam away complain that a basic
  feint got them killed, often they even have the nerve to rage vote kick. Its no different to an aimbotter in Quake 3 losing to simple
  splash damage from an very good rocket launcher user, they also used to vote kick in Qlive hehe. Its the shame of it tbh

  @BandOfTheHawk

  They kind of answered this on reddit - “Yes you can parry spells with your weapon and the shield, there are also spells that can be used defensively. Spell deflection does exist as well and we’re still working on this, it’s just too cool of a thing to not do”.

  Hey shrinking spells are a great idea tbh, it could be used not only to crush your foes, as to give access to some parts of the map to someone on your team!

  I was just helping out. I know how to answer questions like this. Who knows developer silence better than a Half-life fan after all?

  @gregcau what does that have to do with this topic?

  I posted on the wrong thread, another one of Loins was talking about cross platform play
