Evan Jenkins

Benjamin Butler
I hope my grandkids enjoy it
Daniel Adams
>GOTY 2?19
Cooper King
>all these people who have lost faith in bannerlord.
Come back into the path of light young Calradian, for the weak of will shall feel the wrath of the righteous mace.
Jacob Peterson
More like scam of the year 2019
Luis Moore
it's coming. i can feel it
Aaron Diaz
Think about all the anons that have died waiting for this. Its been like 2 presidential administrations.
Landon Gonzalez
>not charging any money
>scam
????
>inb4 some retard says they get bankrolled by the turkish government.
No they don't. They get some tax breaks, and take on interns for cheap rent at uni campus with business facilities. Both of these things are entirely normal for game studios in other countries too.
Nathaniel Walker
>M&B has shit combat
t. underageb& For Honor shitter
Connor Collins
They scam you into thinking it's gonna come out this year.
William Ramirez
They're both bad. For Honor has good fundamentals it least. M&B is a piece of shit all around.
John Parker
This shit is the new HL3
Brandon Rodriguez
The devs have said no such thing though, late 2019 is conjecture from the community based on:-
>recently announced MP beta
>they're in the "implementation phase". From my own experience working in the games industry, this means features are "done" and being brought together in the main build.
>dev "soon" comments (though they've said this before)
Zachary Smith
So it's not the dev's scam, it's your scam. That totally makes me feel better now.
Jonathan Howard
t. tried MP and got wreked newb
Ian Cook
cant wait for a warband era mod to do this to filthy Rhodoks
Lucas Gomez
I sure fucking hope the MP beta is at least gonna be part of a pre order package, early access or whatever because it's been seven fucking years for pit sake...
Aiden Brown
the MP BETA will be closed, but they've said there will be an early access just before release. Just like Warband did.
Samuel Perez
so not this year, nor the next then..
Benjamin Watson
Fuck that was good
Connor Lee
>2019
Yeah, no. If by some miracle it does, it'll be broken as fuck, and it'll take another 3 years to bugfix anyway.
Sebastian Reed
And it would still be the best release of the year.
Alexander Rodriguez
>you'll die before bannerlord comes out
If Bannerlord comes out in the next 5 years I'm quitting my job and becoming a full time porn modder.
Lucas Hughes
Daniel Thomas
>mankind managed to photograph a black hole before we got to release Bannerlord
Really Spurdo'd my Spärde.
Charles Long
If the game isnt complete shit it will have spear bracing, meaning spears actually have a purpose other than getting you killed for using them. I really really hope they actually do formations so you arent slamming F keys just to make characters form ranks that dont let cavalry just walk right through them.
Evan Torres
>mankind will have colonized the galaxy before bannerlord comes out
Connor Gray
Nathaniel Jackson
Battania bros rise up.
William Taylor
>2k19 release
>when reddit keeps encouraging them to not talk & ignore any questions for a release date
>Implying they wont keep sucking the Turk government intern money grants till its dry
Joshua Myers
>tfw having to level athletics to traverse the city streets at a decent speed
What peasantry bullshit is this?
Owen Gray
>tfw no camel mount
Isaiah King
>2019
Nah
>2020
Maybe. Open beta
I'm glad to see camels (And donkeys) but I'd love to see in a DLC go big dick creative and give us elephants. It'd be fucking baller to have howdah'd elephants with 2-4 people on the back.
That or chariots.
Camden Russell
Are the battlefields in M&B randomly generated?
Daniel Wright
Can't they hire some fucking animators?
Noah Gray
It would have been cool if there were an Indian inspired faction.
Nolan Reed
That's that damn lie, and YOU know it.
The basis of Mount & Blade's combat is one of the most realistically skill-based yet.
Julian Stewart
I'll admit that they look as floaty and weightless as ever, I can forgive it for Warband due to the general jank of the game but they could've put in a little more efforts for Butterlard
Robert Wright
Hope there's more world-building now.
While Warband's core gameplay mechanics was dynamic its world felt sterile with its copy-and-pasted dialogue and mannequin-like models.
Jonathan Jackson
It'd have been neat to have Calradia expanded to include more of the world the way Warband added the deserts & sarranids, with an India/Central Asia added to the east and south-east of Sarranids/Khergits, or Africa south of the Sarranids ancestors. WE WUZ aside for late antiquity the Axumites were the proxy allies of the Romans and used to fight off pro-Sassanian or anti-Christian forces in Yemen, like Dhu Nuwas the Jewish king. India analogue would be great as it'd be a distraction-option for the Khergits and Sarranids to be involved or distracted by. I'll call them by their bannerlord names when I get bannerlord.
Levi Allen
Maybe 2019 of next era
Henry Morris
I said it many times but I'll say it again, one of the thing I'm really hoping for is fiefs/castle/town management to actually mean shit now.
In Warband it's nothing more than a moneymaker that you have to babysit.
Jaxson Fisher
The models still look like shit.
I honestly have no idea why Bannerlord is taking so long, it looks to be Warband with better graphics (but still terrible) with a fuck ton of shit reused. Does there dev. team consist of 3 people working part time?
Thomas Brown
Mostly.
Everyone else are interns/students.
Asher Rivera
Is it possible to remove the "floatiness" and of the combat?
Because the game uses a 4-direction system for blocking and attacking (anymore directions would probably put a lot of people off) so animations have to be telegraphed (in a unnatural way) in order to respond quickly enough.
Jose Lewis
A more modest mod I'd love to do for bannerlord would be an Auxilia project to fanfiction up certain villages/towns/regions providing unique troop types. Like in real life the balearic slingers, Isaurian Hillmen, Numidian cavalry, Rhodian slingers, Cretan archers, Alumghavars. So maybe the villages near Danustica provide Derpaderpeans, who either upgrade into standard South Calradian soldiers or a unique Derpaderpean line that gives you stout light infantry skirmishers. While for the proto-Sarranids in the far south you might be able to recruit black slave-warrior Abids.
I don't know how the Calradian 3 splinters are divided in troop types but I hope the one closest to the barbars is able to have a Foederati style tree.
I feel like there's a lot of mission creep/feature bloat. Not as much as star citizen but enough that a humbler goal would have seen release by now.
Asher Torres
Telegraph them through UI rather than wonky animations, like For Honor.
You'd need to make the AI a hell of a lot smarter when it comes to combat but it's better than looking at those horrid animations.
Evan Carter
>Will lose to TLOU2
Brayden Johnson
You mean RE2.
Caleb Cox
>Bannerlord 2, Star Citizen and Cyberpunk 2077 being released the same year
Can't fucking wait
Aiden Hill
I think so, the biggest problems is that it look like the character isn't throwing any strength into his attacks, that's why it look so floaty.
That is, of course, about the animations, the combat gameplay itself would be another matter
Noah Roberts
>fast forward is actually on the UI now
Good, it took my 5 years to find out there was a fast forward button in warband
Christopher Reed
Looks like because the character is moving (and they likely turned down the combat speed).
Even in Warband the character will perform a different animation when standing still and swinging.
Joshua Young
looks like shit.
Andrew Morales
>strafing and smashing! such skill!
Grayson Edwards
Did they finally release more info on it?
Alexander Taylor
>2019
You accidentally put a 1 instead of 2
