If the game was dead, TBS would not be paying for about 140 official servers. I can see more than 30 of them just in EU being used at the moment. The game is only dead for people who have been permanently banned.
FYI, Mordhau will also have rules about teamkilling on purpose and use of racist language so it won’t be a haven for people who were banned from Chivalry.
We have decided to give you another chance so please remember the rules because people don’t get a second chance after a successful appeal if they start breaking the rules again. The mute might take a couple of days to be removed.

@platinum He is the head sound guy at TBS and he also did some custom voiceovers as the Mason MAA after taking requests during the one of the previous Q&A sessions.

@CJ12 Alpha keys are given out randomly to the people who apply. As the alpha is covered by an NDA, you wouldn’t be able to talk about it at all so being a youtuber isn’t an advantage at this stage.
The devs are looking for players who will help the game by giving feedback at the moment. If you want to make videos, keep up with the Chiv 2 discord and wait until the game is at a stage where content can be shared. Maybe when it gets to open beta (I’m not sure how the later stages will be handled so don’t quote me on that).
@generaldeejee said in Ban Appeals:
@valind Terrible customer service to just delete my reply, your team hasn’t looked into my ban but just took the word of a player moderator to issue me a global ban. I’m very disappointed in this company.
You were watched and recorded by more than one admin over a long period of time and the evidence is incontrovertible. We know what cheats you were using and anyone who behaves like this will receive a game and/or VAC ban.
@zumbledum said in epic exclusive?:
For many reasons most self evident , i wont use the epic store but that appears to be the only route to this game , which makes me sad i loved the first one and played for many hours. despite your huge anti consumer move using that platform and helping it with all th ebad things its trying to force on us i wish you luck and i would normally say ill just pick it up in 6 months whenit comes 50% to steam but this is the sort of game you need to be there for the start.
I know my one lost sale wont be a drop in the bucket of the sack of cash epic bought you with , but as the film said if you stand for nothing youll fall for anything.
I bought Chiv 1 over two years after it launched and still got 5k hours out of it so you don’t need to be in at the start. Chiv took over a year to build up patches and content to make it the best version of itself.
Most the hate I’ve seen for Epic has been illogical, contradictory or based on false information.
@fernando-lego said in PC / PLAY crossplay?:
Can I play with my Play friends while I play in PC?
Crossplay between the current and next gen consoles and PC is supported!
Harassment and racism are clearly against the rules on official servers no matter how old the game is so we will be looking into this. Thanks for your report.
@Mr_Gallows Most of the news updates are on the official Discord so that’s the best place to find the most recent info.
The alpha is still running and everything is fine, just delayed a bit beyond the original schedule. I don’t think it’s due for a Q1 release (unless we get very lucky), I think they are just aiming for 2021 without being specific.
COVID rules slowed down development to a degree, but they sorted out how to work from home, etc. The game is due to be released on current and next-gen consoles at the same time as PC (with crossplay over all platforms) so it should be a lot more populated for console players than the first game.
I have no idea about what fps will be available on consoles, though. They’re working hard to optimise the game since it has to run on the current gen, but I don’t currently know more than that.
@Park0urDavid said in When can we share Alpha footage?:
I’ve wanted to take footage and clips of my alpha gameplay for quite a while, but obviously, there is an NDA. When am I allowed to share my footage/clips? When the Beta is released? When the full game is released? Never?
The alpha will have bugs in it so I think the reason is that TBS don’t want videos of game clips with bugs being shared in the future. A certain group of people have been taking every small issue with the game and re-uploading images or clips over and over to attack the game and claim it’s bad.
Map: TO - Citadel - first stage
The ballistae often become bugged and as an attacker you can’t fire at the palisade because they twist in strange directions.
Also on Citadel, you still have the mass crash bug where about half the players on the server suddenly get a cmw.exe crash. It’s been happening less than in the distant past, but I still see it.
OK, for 2019 you can have a second chance. Please remember that we will know it’s you if you try using alt accounts to play on the low level servers again so stay away from them. We are checking them even more often now. (It will take a few days for account to be removed from the ban list.)

@Krieger3 said in Will progress in Beta be saved for final release?:
Hello.
All the progress, money, skins and LVLs I get during Beta, will be saved for the final version?Thank you.
No, the game will be reset so everyone will be starting from the same point at launch. Otherwise it would give he alpha / beta players an unfair advantage.
Map: TO Belmez - 3rd stage
When attack must burn the granary and push the cart, archers can get onto the roof and they are impossible to attack by melee players.
Also, there is no forced respawn when the flags are planted on the wall so defending archers often stay on the wall and fire down into the attacker’s spawn and they can’t be reached.
@adasdasdasdasd said in Take the game off Steam if you're not going to support it:
Since you obviously are putting all your time and energy into Chivalry II, you should have some morals and stop charging full price for the original, which is clearly no longer supported.
But you won’t, because there’s a sucker out there with $25 that you’re hoping to scam.
Go on, delete my post. Ban me. That’s how you deal with anything, right? Do it. Clean up my mess, janitor.
Obviously a small team would be focused on the new game and not the one which came out in 2012. However, there are still around 100 official servers for Chivalry 1 players and the game has been patched to keep it working after Steam made changes. It is still supported, just not updated with new content.
@Krieger3 said in If i buy the game on epic, will i get a copy for steam ?:
It´s a very interesting question, specially what concerns about progress and leveling. It would be great that your accont is linked to every platform you play in (Epic, Steam, Xbox). I don´t mind if you have to buy another copy, but saving progress and linking it to your Chivalry account is something vital and essential to me.
The devs have not been able to fully confirm this yet, but they have said they are going to try implement it (not at launch, but afterwards). A Steam version won’t be available until later so they have another 12 months post-launch to get it ready (if possible).
Map: TO Belmez - final king vs king stage
If the first player on Agatha (attack) presses Page Up to pass on the kingship, the second player immediately dies when spawning in as Feydrid. I’m not sure how often it happens or what else is required to trigger it, but I’ve seen it multiple times. Here are two examples:
Map: TO Hideout - first stage
Next to the steps outside the attacker’s spawn you sometimes find archers hiding in the rock:
Map: TO Shore - last stage
There is a big rock structure in the middle of the path down with an ammo box at the bottom. Archers always find a way to climb up out of reach. I don’t have a vid of the path up or better info right now.
