I never played Chiv. But if the concept of a knight melee combat simulator sounds good to you, get it. It's really good at immersing you into feeling like you're on a battlefield. It's grizzly. It's also got fairly deep mechanics with a high skill ceiling. And the sword fights are probably the best in gaming ever. It doesn't feel like "press x to clash swords." It feels like you're swinging a sword and coming into contact with physical entities. Turboautists who put 1000 hours into chiv will tell you it's shallow. It does lack maps and modes, which are coming. And it does need some balancing. But it's fucking awesome anyway. I'm 30 hours in and I can see myself getting another 100 with just these few maps and the one real mode alone. With like 10-20 maps and a handful of good modes it could be a 10.

no, fuck CAMP

this game desperately needs a dump of maybe 2-3 maps for frontline

they need balancing. aesthetically and play-space-wise, they're great.

I don't really care about losing a match in this game. I'm just having fun fighting people.

fuck OFF Camp is the second best map

Grad > POWER GAP >Camp >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Mountain Peak >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> team deathmatch where everyone is autistic and RPing >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Taiga

This game desperately needs the mod tools to come out already so we can add Facing Worlds

>play-space-wise, they're great.
NO

the struggle for the middle of Taiga is a fucking CHORE. It's horrible. Both teams spawn fucking lightyears away from the enemy flag. Compare that to Grad or Camp, or even Mountain Peak. All three have excellent balance and the encounter design between any two points is excellent. In Grad every flag struggle on either side is perfect.


In Taiga every single map devolves into Red and Blue each owning two of the four flags and the match dragging on for fucking ever. I would agree that I care more about the fun of each fight than team objectives but in Taiga it's not fun. You spawn, run for a entire minute, and more often than not you're by yourself against 3 enemies because the map is too wide for any team to assault en mass. Taiga is fucking SHIT

damn, i don't know shit what i'm doing
just started a few hours ago, level 4 so not unlocked a whole lot yet.
been using mostly the spear, i like the reach but i get my shit handed to me by bigger weapons (zweihander and shit).
Tried the Maul which i liked for the big meaty hits, but the reach wasn't for me. Need to learn how the fuck to play first before I can get into close combat.
Bought the Executioner Sword which I'm gonna try out tomorrow.

I can't rank maps. They're all good and bad for different reasons. But they all offer their own unique immersion fantasy. They just need balancing, and we need way more of them. I hope we get some urban/indoor stuff. That would really fuck with the wild swing spammers, but it might devolve into a stab-fest. My current favorite is Mountain Peak.

Alright, I broke my rule on no battle royale and bought it. Anything I should know going in so I don't get raped, or is it better blind? I haven't played chivalry or anything similar

it's fun unlocking and playing with new weapons and customizations, after that you better git gud or it's gonna get repetitive. There's an astronomical amount of shitters in the game so it shouldn't be too hard

>tfw get 400 gold just for playing base defense against these two guys infiltrating to get the ballistas THE ENTIRE GAME
God damn it's annoying. The worst was just a faggot with a spear who would wait till you did anything.

as long as you're not a salty person just go for it blind, worked for me just discovering shit

Die a lot and don't be a bitch about it. Throwing your body into the fray and learning about what you did wrong is the best way to learn. Also do the tutorial first.

i can attest this. fuck taiga.

Mountain Peak is the best horde map, though.

No one plays that mode man. Its 90% Frontlines and TDM.

why? i only played once on a duel server, but I liked it.

yeah don't play battle royale mode

Wrong. Tourney is worse than shit.

Usually results in one team getting spawn camped and ranked, usually blue team because they're full of retards. Also spawns are really small hallways so they bottleneck easily, main reason why spawn camping happens

thank you for not being retarded.

I was just in another fucking server where everyone overwhelmingly voted taiga. I had to quit. Why the FUCK does nobody ever vote Grad? It's by far the best. It's not even a competition. It has no downsides and both sides are fun as fuck to play

funny enough i'm the guy you replied to before and during your post we were voting on a map. everyone voted fucking taiga.

i have no fucking clue why though

There are 4 maps. People just vote in a rotation so they get a change of scenery.
Think about it. Does the idea of an autumn forest aesthetic change or a balanced objective map appeal to you more in a game with 4 maps where objectives are secondary to combat?

The arms are fucking sweet, I'm stealing that.

I was in a server a couple days ago where everyone kept voting grad and camp over and over. It was pretty great but I think I'd hate it if every server was like that all the time.

Catapaults for only one team says otherwise

Put dodge on the build.

Still not very good at the game yet, but I'm still liking it.

I agree BUT Camp is only good if you play as red since you can sneak into the camp and piss everybody off by spawnkilling people with the ballista.
Taiga also has the best moment to moment fights even if the map itself is atrocious.

People really like doing this shit. I've even seen groups of 2-4 people sneak into blue's last base on camp and on grad just in case they have to fight for control over the ballista.

thisMemespecs are for once you know the game. The game is for people with high IQs. You have to learn the game before you can start fucking around.

Bear Trap is great. It's like spending a point for a kill every round. you can set one up right in front of fuckers and theyll still chase you straight through it.

Ive been going battle axe, smoke bomb, bear trap w/ 2-3-2, really fun.

>Nerfed chase mechanic slightly - now has a bit less activation range & movement speed bonus upon activation. This will make it weaker mostly against unarmored builds.
>Smokes now disable chase mechanic.
It was a pretty significant nerf to it, especially the range. Happened just a couple days ago. It's basically impossible to catch nakedfags now if you're in anything heavier than tier 1 armor.

Okay, so I can flee. How about actually killing people? I dare to claim that I can pretty reliably 1v1 most everyone, but this game isn't about 1v1 (which is baffling, since that is clearly where the gameplay systems shine) and so someone is bound to join the fray before I can clobber someone to death with my ineffectual meme stick. Yeah, I could hit someone a few times, fart out a smoke cloud and run away screaming like Zoidberg, but I want to actually fight people. And for that the game sets you up to fail unless you equip specific things or play on a duel server.

new to this game, how to fight good?

Don't get hit
Hit your enemies

I want CTF where the flag is a weapon. Whoever carries it is basically given a weapon with stats somewhere in the range between poleaxe and quarterstaff.

That, or the flag is a slow, ornery mule you have to ride back to your base.

Does the Billhook just have a special "fuck horserider" property?

Yes. Any Billhook hit on the rider will ragdoll them.

nice, halo style

Its a legit weapon on its own as well.
I've seen some duel players use it who just fucking destroyed people.

I picked up the bear trap just to fill out some points, and it was a lot more fun to mess around with than I was expecting it to be.

Since the patch dropped, I've barely ever see shieldfags in frontline. Instead, there seems to be a real uptick in execfags.

This is a good thing. Chiv benefited greatly by making shields not just useless, but a liability as well (in Chiv, not only did they block worse than just weapon parrying, they counted as a headshot if anybody hit the shield when it was in your off hand undeployed). This led to faster and more skillful gameplay. Two-handed meta is faaaaaaar better than sword-and-board meta.

Make firebombs cost 1 point more and do 33% less damage to Toolbox structures.

Firebombs should be area denial, not defense wipers.

Fireproof should be a situational perk, not a required one.

I wouldn’t go fighting in the front line, unless you plan on stunning enemies with your stick. You could flank around and beat the shit out of archers or catapulters, then smoke bomb to flee once people notice you.
I’m hoping to make Castle Wars from Runescape if mod tools ever come out. CTF would be great for that.

I warn ye messer shits every thread. Bring me your skulls.

go into the server browser, select deathmatch and type duel into the search.
an official duel mode is coming soon.

Does fireproof apply to your structures?

should probably play with a Longsword or something as much as possible. Spear only really has stabs, and Exec sword only has swings. so you are kinda limiting yourself and only getting kills in very specific situations.

As a billhookfag casual, it's not a great weapon. It's got a slow windup and a fast attack, making timing chambers extremely difficult and the window really small. They excel at taking down horsefags and are serviceable weapons everywhere else, but I can't imagine taking one to a duel server unless I was an MLG player who just wanted to style on everyone.

>They excel at taking down horsefags
until the horsefag just goes full shitter and presses F with a poleaxe or spear. Out ranges the billhook and requires no skill. Just run into people for free kills. Needs to be removed.

Its my favorite weapon in the game.
So comfy to destroy 2handerfags with.

Who the fuck are you calling a stupid nigger? stupid nigger. There is literally a Battle Royale mode in game you dumb fucking kike holy shit kys

for melee*

The only things better at putting a stop to horsefaggotry are engineers, archers, and ballistae.

based and halberdpilled

If you are blue DO NOT go for that first objective, simply defend the barrels, the reds cant take the objective if the barrels remain alive, meaning your team can slowly creep forward so long as they are active. Even if you are on your own, defend that fucking objective, put walls around it, do a patrol, anything, the reds cannot do anything if they are active and blue tends to let them get destroyed so fast that it basically gives reds a free win after they destroy them. Your team will push the next objective once the barrels are secure and the frontline has moved outside of your base.

I have personally went by myself and destroyed every objective unimpeded and then the result is that reds can now capture the control point and make blue fall to shit immediately, I should not be able to do this on a map where 32 people are suppose to be defending an objective.

On maps that feel like you are a defender, play like a defender, dont rush forward just because everyone else is, it only takes one person to capture a point that is uncontested and then the whole game crumbles.

user you're blowing my mind please tell me how to disable the team colors.

Any healbros got advice?

Another pro tip for blue on Taiga: if you're going for the camp via the log crossing, spawn at the far back point instead of the one closest to the camp. Its spawn point is actually closer.

Get 2 med bags instead of one user, means you can put healing points at different locations. Shit, get a 3rd and take the dodge and brawler perks if you want to get spicy.

As soon as someone is wielding one, it makes all enemies around them completely stupid, they just offer their fucking heads to get chopped off en masse, almost never blocking. And this keeps happening consistently. Every time I find one on the ground, I turn into fucking Guts. In my match just a moment ago, I killed five god damn enemies with one horizontal swing, and then four guys with another swing just a minute later.

Not even that guy, but are you being intentionally stupid? The battle royale mode in the game literally works like any other battle royale game out there.

The kick buff definitely made fighting them more bearable. Without it, I probably would've whiffed this first kick and then been 2v1'd by shieldfags.

Do you want Tourney and Contraband to become straight up unplayable?

Taiga would be great if spawns for both sides were moved closer by like 25%

thanks

Its got stupid long reach for a weapon that does swipe attacks, I find Im killing people by accident that were running in from outside of my line of sight for fuck sake. Its kindof shitty because I want to like other weapons like maces and greatswords etc, but this weapon is simply superior and makes fighting so much easier, you dont need to account for range as much and the damage is a 2 hit kill at most. No idea how you can fix it without making it useless, but it has effectively made every other weapon kindof pointless if you have access to it, its all you see even since release and rapiers were the go to, zwei was still up there. Maybe make it slower to swing?

Use the alternate grip and you will 2 hit even heavy armour with stabs

Why is maul a throwable weapon anyway? It's really fucking stupid

Isn't it faster?

sorry i'm a frontline player

>>No armor means I die to fucking everything in one hit
no shit faggot, what did you expect?

Drop Tenacious, Flesh Wound and Scavenger (the meta has basically led to everyone wielding only a single weapon anyway, so most people won't be dropping anything more anyway).
Put on a bit more armor and replace the Bandage with a second Medic Bag. Let your allies handle the bulk of the fighting and just rack up those Heal points. You can top the scoreboard with almost nothing but Heals if your allies actually know what the fuck Medic Bags are.

Drop a bag near the ammo chest (and resupply your bags off of them) and at main traffic areas, slightly behind wherever the fight is focused. You can have a bunch of bags down on the ground at once, so go nuts at spamming them in areas you want your allies to actually fortify. Having a bunch of bags lying around can influence the way your allies will move and what positions they will hold.

This game worth the price? Or will be dead by next year?

I expected a game which has customization as one of its selling points not to gimp me completely for mostly stylistic choices.

Customization still works as an element, you just have to not be a fag about it. Once you git gud, the world is your oyster.

You sound like an absolute whiny bitch.

Nothing wrong with a CQC stab fest. The last stage of red winning taiga is a tunnel run. Amazing claustrophobic close unit tactics. Probably the best application of a spear formation I've ever seen, since players are actually forced to form ranks in sucha tight space.

Worth it even if it only survives a year. I think it will live long. I also think private servers will exist forever.

man id love to have such formations if the game had some sort of voice option but everyones too busy talking about how awesome they are having 5 people take them out or the latest game of thrones episode

Zwei is a retard weapon the way the rapier is. You can pick it up and just insta faceroll enemies. It's fucking insufferable but it's a weapon I expect is never going to get any kind of balance for it. I question why the hell it's so good at stabbing. I'd understand if half-swording it made you do good thrusts but instead you can thrust it almost as good as a halberd or a spear, let alone swings. I don't see the reason to do an LS or a GS instead of an Estoc (Stab) Executioner (Swing) or Zwei (Everything).

Also it's ridiculous for a game called MORDHAU the MORDHAU grip is so worthless. I'd love to see Mordhau grip actually butcher with T2/T3 armor instead of the piddly ass benefit it has. The Zwei should only have a range advantage, not range and extreme damage eclipsed only by the halberd or Executioner.

>Its got stupid long reach for a weapon that does swipe attacks, I find Im killing people by accident that were running in from outside of my line of sight for fuck sake
Yup

no way to really balance it. the game already is set in its mechanics that you cant have some sort of, i dunno, a fucking piece of armor to protect your neck. wait
its cosmetic

i really dont know how this game is balanced. frontline feels the more real, but duels are fucking too autistic that they are the same category as dark souls 1v1 pvp

I've made the exact same complaint since day 1. I NEVER see anyone use the alt mode on the Zweihander because it's essentially just a spear that has immense slashing power in it's normal grip. That thrust shouldn't be so damn fast or at least not as powerful.

wait replying to myself

i dunno have 2h take a bit more stamina to fucking slug maybe?

I'm not talking about some silly memery like "naked fat guy with three pans lmao xD". I just want to be a regular guy with a length of hardwood, Little John style. How is that unreasonable?

Female characters when?

I would say do the peasant thing, but use a spear.
Then focus on learning people's attack ranges so you can keep just outside of them and stab them to death. Also spam laugh emote. You can do that with a few hours of practice unless you are a literal retard.

nah game and community wont allow it. you better go 3/3/3 with a big fucking two hander and just left click away in a crowd; teammate or not.

thats the meta and it's really killing the fun with the game

You'd feel differently if you discovered the awesome power that is spear alt grip. I see more and more retards taking the spear for safe backline poking, but none of them realize how much faster and more powerful the short grip is.

But I don't want to use a spear. I want to use the quarterstaff.

And it's not like I cannot kill people with it, it's just that I have to put in roughly four times the effort than someone using an actual weapon (as if a quarterstaff wasn't one, though the devs seem to think it isn't).

don't listen to this fag
he wants 10/10 fights every single time
he's the opposite end of the mouthbreather asking for stupid changes
once duel mode is added, which should be soon, I doubt half of these retards will be seething as much.

Mordhau is 2 games. It's the giant battle game and the cerebral duel game. That's what makes it so fun. You're doing the battlefield thing and a really high level mindgame/skill thing.

These guys want just hte mindgame, which I can relate to. And without dedicated duel mode, it does suffer in that regard. But we're getting it soon, so Idgaf.

Yeah, the game needed like 3-6 more months before release to please everyone. Luckily, I'm not on the extreme retard/autist sides of the spectrum, so I fucking love it.

Frontline discourages a more casual approach. If you're not trying and don't care about the objective, your spawn will literally get pushed back and your team will be spawn camped, then everyone moves to their second point to cap it again, then sprints straight for mid the very second they spawn. I hope we get castle siege that won't have back and forth spawn point capping, and once attackers complete stage 1 it's fixed spawning that can't revert.

Why does this game feel like I'm fighting under water

>get one-point weapon
>expect to magically be on the same grounds as people who use 10-point weapons
If you want to meme, put in the effort.

>But I don't want to use a spear. I want to use the quarterstaff.
Then find another game, faggot. This game imposes standards on the player. That's why it's fucking fantastic. You can use the quarterstaff, you just have to git gud first.

look. the game needs some tweaking. i'm just telling him/her what it is.
the game definitely could use a duel mode. i wouldn't mind it. but outside the server browser, you have those 3 options and most will gravitate to.
so i do not know how they are balancing this game but i'm telling you, just chopping away with a zwei and bloodlust with full armor will guarantee success. to some people thats fun, but to others its a fun killer, especially when the game has so many options on how to play.

You played yourself.

>If you're not trying and don't care about the objective, your spawn will literally get pushed back and your team will be spawn camped
I have 30 hours, playing on US EAST, and I have never experienced spawn camping. Like 3 times total I've seen single individuals when I spawned in, and from personal experience I can say it is very easy to accidentally stumble upon spawn points. Spawn camping, at least from 30 hours on US East matchmaking, is not a thing at all.

See

What's wrong with matchmaking? Serious question. I just do it cause it's convenient. I only use browser for duel servers. Make the case for why I should use browser instead of matchmaking.

how do people even enjoy this shit, the animations have zero fucking impact

Dagger, 3/3/3, 2 medkits, friendly, then fire/tenacious if you want to be full support mode. The dagger is insanely fast so you can actually literally sprint into a fight and get a guaranteed stagger or two on an enemy and deal a quick 30-40 damage, then flee quickly to let them finish him without much risk at all. As long as you don't get greedy.

cool retort nigger

Stay on consoles.

The dagger is a one point weapon and it twoshots unarmored people with its lightning fast stab. The quarterstaff has range advantage over the dagger, but no one worth their salt is going to get hit by it just like they wouldn't get hit by any other pole weapon. And if I do manage to outplay someone and get past their defenses, my reward is 20 to 30 damage.

I can kill people with the staff and regularly do. The problem is that the effort I have to put into killing someone is exponential compared to a zweinigger, for example. I'm not asking for the staff to do zwei damage, but would it kill them to make it deal at least 25 damage per hit so it could kill with four hits instead of six? If that necessitates them to bump its point cost up, then so be it.

why cant you throw two-handed weapons

I don't actually. I just demonstrated how the game does have a BR mode when the claim was made that it doesn't.

Because the alternate grip is actually an alternate grip since they pretty much all are about length or using the other head

You can throw the maul

The mace is solid. Excellent damage - two hits to the head and/or body against any armor level. One of the few 1H weapons with -13 stamina drain negation so it has optimal stamina management (others being Bastard Sword and Messer).
However, its very short reach and Stop on Hit are big disadvantages in team fights, better for 1v1. You aren't going to be cleaving through multiple enemies unless they're killing blows. If you can't isolate a single dude or have the numbers advantage, the Mace is really going to suffer.

In comparison, pretty much all of the 4 point weapons are solid and much more versatile/useful for team modes. Even the Falchion for one point less has a lot of advantages over the Mace for team battles (100ms faster, slightly longer reach, almost as strong but needs one more hit against L3 armor, and doesn't stop on hit.)

Hot take: shields should be breakable. As it is right now it's basically press RMB to go invuln.

not him but from a more realistic standpoint the quarter staff should do more damage then it currently does, it should be more of a 3 point weapon then a 1 point, real quarter staffs where not joke weapons you can crack skulls with those fuckers real easy

the best way to incentivize people to use formations is to make it really dangerous to step out of one and easier to fight inside of one

this means people will complain shields are too good or ranged is too bad, also doing away with firebombs or being able to disable traps and shit like that, it's gonna be "too realistic"

I KEEP FUCKING DYING

But everyone else deserves to have their way because the game does not gimp their chosen loadouts or, as you would put it, make them "extra challenging". Gotcha.

The issue being that I have to get exponentially gudder than the guy who puts on his tinsuit and swings his zwei around, all just because I want to use a specific loadout. I have to outplay someone wearing armor and wielding a greatsword six times, they have to outplay me once. The only argument that can be raised in defense of this is authenticity, but the game is far from authentic in any case, so that doesn't hold water.

yeah sure but they wont put realism over good gameplay
which is good

>please make this literal fucking stick an actually viable choice compared to actually historically successful weapons
>why?
>because i like it

This game has a high skill ceiling. You won't be top of the scoreboard, but you won't be useless either if you choose a less deadly weapon with less armor, your role is not to go in the fray of a battle though as a rogue arrow or unintended swing will instantly kill you. You either choose a war build, a duel build, or a support build. Those are the 3 builds in the entire game including meme ones like pan. A peasant with a pan is actually a duelist and has an advantage assuming equal skill level against most weapon and armor combinations, but many of them decide to go straight into the thick of things rather than single people out and immediately die making themselves useless.
The quarterstaff has more speed than a zwei, spear, and halberd while having almost the same range as the halberd. You need to go full stamina perks in order to utilize a weapon like this and become a duelist who outplays people like that every time. No matter how good someone is, if you have more stamina AND more speed than them, they will simply lose and in a perfect AI match they would theoretically be unable to land a single blow.

I've been rolling with a Medium Helm and Light Torso, leaves enough points for decent weapons and perks - I don't armor the legs at all, I've been hit on them maybe once in 12 hours so far

Yeah it would help both realism and balance.

Doesn't make a lot of sense that the wooden doors and structures disintegrate from a few axe or hammer hits but the tiny wooden shields are fucking indestructible.

It would make a lot of blunt force weapons much more versatile if they could crack shields quickly.

Maybe make the billhook able to rip it off your arm too?

Torso should have the most armor because it's where you're hit the most.

Ovch!

I ask this question a lot but never get an answer. What's the perceived advantage of chambering over parrying? Barring stabs, chambering is more difficult to pull off but affords no benefits as the enemy is able to instantly parry. Maybe chambers being free hits would lead to an overly defensive meta but as it stands it seems to offer little benefit.

The game seems to get less fun the better I get. Team battles are now me spinning around like a tornado attempting to catch people off guard at weird angles, and 1v1's are just spasming at one another until someone parries at the wrong time and they eat a hit because holding up their guard for longer than a second is illegal.

I meant torso 1 is mandatory

Chamber feints

>strongest sword
Not with that 20 damage stab

If you go for a chamber and they feint they get hit

Chambering stabs is usually not that useful but Chambering a swing and making it as wide/long or as short/quick as possible is pretty stress inducing for your opponent, also less time consuming which means less time for ganking nibbas or for the baddies to think.

Also
>chamber to feint
If you're a faggot.

just teamkilled a rapier kiteshield fag into leaving the server at the last 100 tickets lmao

>Chambering stabs is usually not that useful
Chamber morphing into a slash is the most generally applicable way to get around rapierfags.

Why do melee games all have to devolve into some feint based meta? It's like the fun hits its zenith when you've learned the range and effective use of your weapon but then begins to decline when fights become less a clash of steel and more fake outs and mind games to get free hits while your character does unrealistic things like get stuck in an animation or automatically lowers his guard a fraction of a second too early.

Without it I guess it'd be two dudes swinging then blocking until someone messes up, but isn't that what factors like range, positioning, and stamina is for?

This might be a stupid question. But ive gotten pretty good at chambering rapier and spear cucks stab spams.

So it ends with me constantly chambering them until some other faggot comes and bashes me over the head from behind. What am i doing wrong here?

1: Lets you personally choose whether you want to prioritize good ping or good playercount, without the system deciding for you.
2: Doesn't put you into gay team damage disabled servers.

nothing
however kicking them is a good way to fuck them up
i assume they also use shields

The one thing I think I want them to fix the most is how you can tilt your weapon a tiny bit after the swing or thrust and get full damage despite it being nothing more than a fucking tap.

It's such stupid bullshit that happens. The thrust is over, it has no velocity, nothing more than a side movement after it's been thrust and then boom full damage.

have stabbing be kind of a sweetspot?
too early and it does almost no damage
too late and it does almost no damage

They can turn way fucking faster than you can strafe to the side, and with the amount of time/distance you need to windup your attack, there's no strafing a horse even if you're sprinting.

The quarterstaff is just a smidge faster than the billhook, while the billhook deals almost double the damage of the quarterstaff. The staff is undertuned, there's no way around it.

because just fucking play idiot

I suck at combat. I try but just cant nail it. So how else can I easily get points to level up? I just drop med kits. Not sure how to interact with objectives. Any tips?

Thats a solid change

I just foresee it as one of the glaring aspects of frontline gameplay that will get old the fastest

Like listening to the cucks that screech about horses and catapults - no. Ignore them. But people get shouted out when they bring up the bots that just swing left to right while turning wildly.

I get that the shields were nearly indestructable before, that change was reasonable. But it concerns me that the devs just listened to the idiots that just want to mindlessly swing horizontally with executioner swords.

Right now, that is the meta of frontline. And in any online game, what is meta will not be meta in the future, so long as people acknowledge it instead of living with it.

bro
pick halberd and dodge

Follow up successful kicks with a stab

>greatswords have more range than spear
>several weapons have more range than spear type weapons

why

That's not the meta though. The top tier players I see when playing FL, the ones not on horseback and have ratios of 10+:1 arent all using exec swords.

I play team deathmatch almost exclusively. The problem of getting attacked by someone else while fighting is almost as prevalent there as it is in frontline.

2 medkits, a weapon you like(i like billhook for double duty}, as much armor as you can and maybe friendly

We're already chivalry light to be honest. I half hope we can mod the game up so I can see servers that try a different hand at balance than the devs because I don't have a huge amount of faith seeing these stats. For instance, every single weapon has the exact same block view tolerance it looks like except for shields. Meaning a maul is as easy to parry with as a dagger, a dagger and maul are the same as a rapier or arming sword or halberd.

What the FUCK IS THE POINT OF BLOCK VIEW TOLERANCE STAT if that is the case? Why the fuck is it as forgiving to block with a targe as with a dagger?

Never said a specific wep is the meta, i meant floating like a piece of paper while swinging to the left, then to the right, then left again in giant arcs, is probably the meta. Its way too strong. People got mad about the shields being too good at turtling, and they were, one guy with a kite shield could survive a gangbang until his friends got there. Well in the same way, the whole bobbing left and right is way too good at decimating a front. Playing objectives is up to which team has that one guy that can pull off that bobbing faggotry. Thats it. Im not saying to remove it tho. Idc. Im saying i think this is the ceiling for frontline, and theres a huge power gap, then other shit like engineers, horsemen, ballistas.

Thats it. Thats the game. Its frustrating because its not hard to do, yet it dominates the outcome of shit.

I love frontline and all and I can live with people abusing some sort of cheese strat but the one thing I just can't stand are ballistas. Horses and catapults are tolerable but ballistas just sit there and spray their projectiles in the general direction of the contested objective and one shot people with 3 armor no problem. I get that its a siege engine and its meant to be very powerful, but it is just the least satisfying thing to die to in the game (aside from hackers, probably).

It's fucking ridiculous how they UPPED the reload speed on them. Now it's basically a machine gun.

>Without it I guess it'd be two dudes swinging then blocking until someone messes up, but isn't that what factors like range, positioning, and stamina is for?
Then you'd have 2 dudes standing at absolute max range down to the pixel, swinging then blocking until someone runs out of stamina.

Feints add a level of depth that is absolutely necessary.
Chambers were stronger in the alpha. They were way too strong and the only thing anyone did was chamber. Same goes for kicks when they were good actually.
They are very good at morphing a chamber into a different attack. It's the easiest way to counter anyone who spams stabs.

I think that each weapon having the same parry stats is kind of a good thing; you just need to think about each weapon that you're up against and you can play around it. For example, if some guy is stabbing the shit out of you with a dagger, realize that he'll run out of stamina much faster than you if you parry without riposting. Once you hear his character begin to pant, you can start countering him and knock it out of his hands, landing you an easy kill. The strategy for fighting a maul user is different. Each weapon having unique parry properties would just lead to more balancing fuckups.

i like how the greatsword makes enemies do flips when they die

The thing about feinting is that its useless against people who just throw out attacks randomly

>Heh im gonna trick this fuck with a double feint into a morph-
>*Gets stabbed by opponent without any feints*
>Lucky fuck, okay lets try this agai-
>*Dies*
>Wow youre good at getting lucky

Also, i sightparry. Feinting is just alarming at first, because the animation looks so weird. But now im over it.

I just stood there once, sightparrying everything this guy threw out after he was done feinting. It dawned on me that he had very little stamina now, so i whacked his weapon out of his hands.

Thats how you spank a feintlord

The undulating blade skin looks sick

Also forgot to mention that targes and bucklers actually DO have different parry properties. The parry window is longer.

>You either choose a war build, a duel build, or a support build.

support builds make your team's war build players more effective
duel builds flank around the edges of the map winning 1v1s to kill the supports and catapults and ballistae and maybe capping

feinting is completely counterable with chambers being a thing. swing feints are totally reactable to since youre always supposed to play it patiently against swings and wait till after the weapon is released to think about blocking it and stabs you just try to chamber

staff swings incredibly fast for its point cost
unironically acquire proficiency

The arming sword is so fast, i love it. I think if you riposte with it and accelerate it its just too fast for people.

Once upon a time people on Yea Forums would have laughed at the joke instead of getting their vaginas in a bunch. Not him, btw.

Yeah. Blame /pol/, they made racist jokes enter fedora territory

The people who are very invested in wanting you to believe racist jokes are fedora territory come from a variety of subreddits, discords, and tumblr pages

Nah. I personally have come to that point. There used to be some grace in setting up a shitty joke, now its just nigger nigger nigger lol 13% tiananmen square. And all those posters are mindless, i assure you. They never sober up, because thats all they do on this website.

Shame most swords with blades like that were primarily ornaments used in parades, but regardless, I agree. It looks kickass.
Nothing screams "Big Dick Energy" like a sword that was made for smashing pike formations and single-handedly guarding choke points and important persons.

>now its just nigger nigger nigger lol 13% tiananmen square
That's what the old jokes were as well. Literally. The whole joke of Niggerwalk or Nigger Stole My Bike was the word "nigger".
Again, the people saying "it's fedora tier now" are just people from tumblr and reddit who discovered Yea Forums since the election.

>tfw can barely do 1:1 k/d in duel servers
What’s the secret

No. You don't understand. But im not explaining something i cant even remember properly. Old good racist jokes have been eclipsed by pol antics. And again, i turn down your suggestion at directing anything towards boogeymen. Only one thing I know for sure exists here, and that is cringe ass zoomers that have tourettes of the fingers.

be unpredictable
if someone kills you a lot spectate them, see what patterns they fall into, think of the counter to those patterns, use it the next time you fight them

>Old good racist jokes have been eclipsed by pol antics
Any evidence of this?
>And again, i turn down your suggestion at directing anything towards boogeymen
If you're the same person I first replied to, then that's hypocritical because "the_donald".

>dueling one guy
>Hes kicking my ass over and over
>Finally, it clicks
>Finally best him
>Feels fucking great man
>He congratulates me
>Fight him again
>Wtf hes easier
>Kill him
>Hes easier the next time
>Gets easier and easier
>Started feeling bad a while ago

Not sure what to do desu

bill is 5 points

Sorry using reddit memes on Yea Forums doesnt signify anything. If anything, it just means youre dealing with a baiter.

r/woosh

And by god, do we all love baiting /pol/tards. So fucking easy

nigger

Cope harder peasant

Then increase the point cost of the staff, too. Out of all the one point weapons (discounting some of the peasant exclusives and rocks, perhaps), the staff is the weakest.

nigger

I didn't even know the_donald was a "reddit meme", I just knew it existed.

*Dies in one hit*

I love playing funbuilds but dying instantly gets old. And theres no gitting gud, any random longbow arrow or a guy blindsiding you is death

I'm not against an upgraded staff of some sort but i do think staff is fine for its cost

>And theres no gitting gud, any random longbow arrow or a guy blindsiding you is death
parrying and situational awareness/thirdperson

I've been playing with it for a while now and knocking the weapons out of people's hands has brought a new joy to the game. Good build user.

There should be another benefit to going peasant

Even a meme, like being able to make turds. Anything.

Ok hammer bros, what's the benefit to flipping the warhammer to spike side?

armor

armor
are you retarded?

being able to style on people with a build universally and instantly acknowledged as weak is the benefit. don't take that benefit away by being obsessed with making it stronger.

Isn't blunt side better against T3 armor?

Of course I know that, I main pan peasant. Just saying Smearing knights armor with shit could also be part of that styling

i dont know about the game
i just play

Not him but im responding anyways. Hey whats up

ok you're gay

*poke*

not him but its because i have a hard time connecting with other males

Aah bro just loosen up. Let bros into your heart

not him but no

Dual blade loadouts when?

It WAS historically done. Usually not Game of Thrones tier dual longsword bullshit but there were plenty of manuals illustrating various swordfighting styles that used two weapons; typically a bastard sword/rapier paired with some kind of dagger.

Would be a nice high-skill alternative to shieldfags.

Why does the mallet get randomly knocked out of my hands when fighting? It's not because no stamina, I usually have like 30 remaining when this happens

never
alot of the shit you see in those "historical" manuals is complete bullshit

Didn't mean to reply

its covered in oil

As much as I love Mordhau to have that, it will be broken as shit in game. Just mount a horse and run into people with dual swords. It was done by mongols.

This was only ever done in cities for self defense, not for open warfare

offhand parrying dagger would be okay as a buckler reskin

Is the game similar to Chivalry Medieval Warfare? Is it better?

That's a poleaxe.

The game is Chiv if the players became the developers, with more refined mechanics to it and less drag spamming. Also removes classes in favor of a point build system. Overall its a much more well made game but it's lack of objective maps makes it get boring fast and Frontlines is shit.

>Is the game similar to Chivalry Medieval Warfare?
yes
>better?
combat, graphics, animations, customizability, game options, playerbase, balance and game design yes
maps and voicelines no (but the maps situation is likely to change later, they have said 2 new maps are coming soon and mod tools coming later)
