I might do a lengthy post later. In the spirit of the topic. How about we keep this not as a debate but answer the question as it’s asked in the email link.

Pros
The combat is free flowing and original. The first time I’ve experienced a melee game where I didn’t have to choose a linear parry up down right left. Do a up down right left attack. Very raw. Learning was extremely frustrating and fun. I’ve still never watched or looked up any how to do this or that’s and can top the Team Objective charts with my own style.

Team Objective. As mentioned in the link, you can play it a variety of ways. Maybe your KD isn’t great, well you can focus on the objective. Lure people away. Camp. Backstab. Rambo in. Be a little healer runner. Fight with your team. Hide in the back of your team. Make enemies hit each other. Sneak way around and attack the a group of enemies from the back. Find a place and declare you shall not pass! Be King!

Ballerina, Dragging. You can develop a very neat flow. I like these mechanics. However animations should not be unreadable.

The plethora of little polish given to the game. Search filters, vote kicks, chat mute, etc etc.

The console commands.

Map editor.

Third person. It’s harder to parry but lets you see more. I love it. I played first person for the first year+.

Option to always run.

Cons
Bugs, mostly eventually addressed, ghost swings etc.

Out of sync? Sometimes in matches you would get some kind of out of sync mode, where everything was super easy to parry and it was very hard for others to parry you. Some people might know how to exploit it. It was a random blessing, but it made the game feel a bit pointless when I knew what was going on.

Bugs that were left in on purpose like ROH. If your to ashamed to add it to a tool tip, then don’t keep it your game. Think if the official Chivalry Video was 2 armies of people ROHing…

Bad hardware optimization. Maybe it’s just the way it was originally made. On my 5700 non XT and 2600x, I still struggle to maintain 120 fps with med settings on 1080p. I started off with Phenom 3? 275 nvidia. went to a 4690k amd 280. Nvidia 970 to here.

Overview

Really I still love the game as is. If it had decent optimization, even with any of the other cons. The unrivaled combat mechanics and TO are still unmatched. Match making would be a good next step in Chiv 2.

Keep TO and the free flowing combat.

Thanks for all your hard work! Been playing off and on since open beta!

p.s. I also loved all the little mini events you guys used to do! It was awesome getting into them. And you did listen to community on all the amazing polish.

Before steam came along I could resell my old and unwanted games on ebay. Trade games with my friends\family. F steam. Steam takes 30% from sellers while epic only takes 12%. Furthermore Blizzard games didn’t go to steam, they made battlenet, you want to cry about them too?

@wilt said in Muted by Karl:

you naughty pleb, its the dirty fork sketch. don’t waste your time with this stuff tbh, it never ends well bear in mind
your in a t/o game to play not distract admins, they also have to keep an eye on entire chat, players and play themselves
so perhaps your timing bad tbh

Karl are you racist and do you allow it on your forums\in game? Have ever taken action against racism as a moderator? How long ago. Can you provide Proof? Will you uphold the racism rule? What do you think is to racist that merits intervention? And what kind of results will come of that? What is the lowest slap on the risk to the work thing you could do ta user?
1.

I asked him about his CPU and GPU which resulted in me being muted… I have not posted in this forum in years… Why do you hire such admins?

To be honest I asked him twice how does that merit a mute? He responded the first time pentium 3, then he said nothing next thing i know I was muted…

Official TO US East #1

There is nothing wrong with having a good cpu and gpu,

EDIT
To further this complaint, the other day I defended Jewish people from a racist and Karl said i am egging the racist on… First off the racist said all black people are wide nosed animals who only obey their animal nature and that jews run the world. So what I did is ask the racists, do you really think jews control the world, they responded yes… So I said considering jews makeup .0003% of the population wouldn’t that make them the master race? And I restated that point. Karl told me, you are antagonizing them. Why would a sane person who is not racist defend these people? Ask Karl what he thinks of Jews and Blacks… Perhaps review his statements in game over that last week or weeks. Racism should never be catered too.

If you have a nvidia card use shadow play.

It’s pretty crazy.

I have a lowly Katana blade I bought at the state fair :). What do you have?

@BandOfTheHawk Despite how weirdly you worded your post, I kind of agree with you.

“We make the objectives actually tied to dramatic and cinematic events that truly matter. You see the scale of things that are happening. So, a medieval army wouldn’t go into a village and raise a flag to capture it,” - Steve Piggott

I know it’s probably far too late to be changing around objectives, but what happened to that?

I hope you all are not focusing on capture the points because of overwatch and laziness.

I doubt it, tbh. There’s probably a better explanation.

I also agree about having multiple/more weapons per class. Although very few disagree with that, so I probably don’t have to explain my position.

@Reithur said in Mirage PAX West Gameplay Video:

@BandOfTheHawk Mirage has much more in common with Chivalry than other game. We’re not trying to “copy” any games, though we do have a number of Mirage-themed objectives and game modes that are common in other FPS games. You’ll note that Chivalry has many “standard” game modes, such as Team Deathmatch, Payload Escort, Capture Points, etc., just flavoured to suit the game.

Mirage is being balanced for 6v6.

Sorry for coming off crude, what was chivalry balanced for? I doubt it was 32 man TO. Yet people still love it.
