Mount and Blade 2: Bannerlord

which niche is that? There have been plenty of medieval fighter games, mordhau probably being the best. the only thing there hasnt been anything new of is medieval strategy games because Total war is now hijacked by 40k faggots/

honestly just looking forward to the porn mods

5 and you die before March 2020

why would there be porn mods

Total War was never good, fuck CA

>retarded 1vs1 duels is the same as building an empire from scratch and leading several wars with thousand of units

>compares it to Mordhau
How young are you? You obviously haven't a clue what Mount and Blade is. Yes, both include Medieval fighting, but Mordhau is multiplayer only. Mount and Blade was loved for the ability to be a commander of 1000s of soldiers, fighting alongside them. To develop your character, a kingdom. Your comment really is weird man, you're clearly very ignorant of what you're talking about.

it was though, im not saying it was bad by any means. its just super shallow in what you can do since you make a band, go fight and sell loot. there kind of are quests but its not the game's strong point.

bannerlord looks like it is adding a lot of cool new features which is nice. I am just surprised at the fanbase is all.

I have god on my side

Looks good, day 1 pirate

Do those games have 300 vs 300 medieval battles with formations etc.

I look forward to fantasy shit bringing in lewd brown elves

Nice retarded opinion. You've come into this thread with the goal of just insulting the series under the guise of "guys Im confused lol". Stop being a faggot.

There is already porn of Warband, why would Bannerlord be any different

>m&b is super shallow
nice opinion ADHD-ridden zoom da zoom

Mount and blade warband 2.0

Pass.

>Mount and blade warband 2.0
That's a good thing retard. That's all we've wanted for fucking ages. We would all be content with simply better AI and graphics.

>There is already porn of Warband
Really? How does it work? I've never really played these games so I guess I'm imagining Oblivion ... no Morrowind sex mods kek.

Why do dumb zoomer make always the same arguments against Bannerlord?
>muh warband reskin
>muh early access
>muh For Honor/Mordhau is better
>muh simple combat
You're just outing yourself as a retard and your arguments get shit on every single time in every thread

medieval total war 2 is amazing how can you be so wrong?

you dont have to do duels in chivalry or mordhau. only retards who think there is honor do.

MTW2 does large scales far better than MB does. MB battles are a pain in the ass because you cant have all units out and what you do have all just run towards the enemy at once. the only worthwhile units to have are horse riders because foot soldiers cant form proper defensives for shit. I could go on how crappy MB combat was, its only good thing was being able to personally joust enemies.

in terms of developing a character or story deliverance is better. MB mashes several genres together in an okay way but doesnt excel at any of them in particular

>Mount and blade warband 2.0

Best thing ever.

Search up Dickplomacy. You can rape prisoners, fuck your wife or husband and if you have enough charisma you can pick girls up at taverns

>cant play mountain blade without pendor overhaul
>devs are entitled assholes that will only do pendor for bannerlord if the get money like the guys who did vikings

>Do those games have 300 vs 300 medieval battles with formations etc.

are you retarded? in medieval total war 2 you can have over a thousand men fighting on each side all in various formations. it does this far better than MB ever could.

>the only worthwhile units to have are horse riders
[Laughs In Rhodok]

>in terms of developing a character or story deliverance is better. MB mashes several genres together in an okay way but doesnt excel at any of them in particular

This is one of the most retarded paragraphs I have ever read in my life. The fact that someone actually gave birth to a retard like you, only suggests to me that you parents are cousins. There is a clear difference between Total War and MnB. Being in the battle and controlling the battle from above are both surprisingly different and equally enjoyable. MB combat is also adored by the fan base. Then, the most retarded of your fucking comparisons "duhh play Deliverance". I love this game mind you, but I would never compare it MnB because "lok they have swords duhh". MnB was never about the story, you fucking mongoloid. It's a sandbox RPG. You can do what you fucking want. You can make your own character too. You're not confined to Henry like in Deliverance.
Genuinely kill yourself.

I gave Warband about 12 hours. I didn't achieve that much but did become a vassal and got given the shittiest village of the land. It got kind of boring around this time and a bunch of bad luck hit me, like my village at the furthest point away from the enemy got sacked by them, I lost a battle and was taken prisoner so lost my party and had to build them all up again.

>are you retarded
ironic. if you can't tell that's there a clear different between how both games play out, you're the retard. but we know that already.

Does it look retarded?

Sort of. Get Dickplomacy anyway, it may have a meme name but it's actually a very good overhaul mod.

FUCK those interviewers. Fuck them to hell

Unironically git gut. Dont rush the game and play as a mercenary for a bit before thinking about joining a faction

Cope

I had to do that anyway. I did a bunch of tournaments too to make some money. I just go burnt out I guess, as nothing ultimately changes from the start to the end.

I don't want to play the older games, they're just too dated. Been waiting for Bannerlord since before Warband was announced desu.

> being a gamer

I mentioned deliverance because it was mentioned how you get to develop your character when all you do in MB is just give them better gear. there is no actual character to speak of in terms of character development where as deliverance, a medieval sim, you watch henry progress from a dumb peasant to whatever you make him. and yes i get that MB isnt about the story but my whole point is that it doesnt really excel at anything it does have. there are plenty of games that beat MB with medieval combat, setting and strategy.

Im just surprised a game that was never particularly good at anything it offered somehow has a devoted a fanbase years later. thats not a bad thing at all but you are sperging out because I said that.

You actually improve your character's attributes, skills and equipment and you can work your way up to a lord and even an independent king. You can also always keep working as a mercenary. What I mean is that there is nothing comparable to warband.

Don't you see a problem in your argument when you need to bring a first person arena game, a strategy game and a RPG game to explain why we don't need Mount and Blade?

Dickplo?

Nothing really changes in 12 hours

>>permadeath, you can die in ingame events, family members count as lives

Is this going to be optional?

not OP and I don't know but the game is moddable.

You could just save scum if nothing else.

Has the save system been confirmed to work like Warband's?

the wait is finally coming to an end

In the interview he says its optional

They said it's optional, yeah.

well i for one value your opinion and don't think you're a retard for expressing it

i see your point, but there is more to do than what you've just said. you can manage your own kingdom/fiefs and start up your own businesses, get into trading. i personally don't find them engaging enough to enjoy though, which is why i don't think you're entirely silly for thinking the game is shallow

what's the appeal of this game? combat looks janky, there's a lot on the screen but that's it at first glance.

Can I play as a bandit with a banddit gang this time?

>medieval fighter
You're missing the point. It's kind of like the X series of games, except medieval. You start as a shitter with nothing and gradually build your way to the top of the food chain with a huge army, businesses and trade all over the world, and many castles, cities, and villages under your control. You have companions, vassals, diplomatic relationships, and of course arch-enemies.
Think of it more like a medieval warlord simulator.
It requires abstract thought, but since you're a fighting games nigger your brain is probably incapable of that.

You could in the original one as well ?

>what's the appeal of this game
I just dont get this man. Watch some fucking videos. Figure it out yourself. Read the thread, this has been asnwered 20 times

Was thinking if I could join the bandit faction in this game

>overhauled sieges
I did notice people actually pushing the siege equipment in the EA trailer, is there anything else changed?

I think it's more accessible to literally just recuit bandits and raid now.

IIRC it was a feature they scrapped but I guess it can be easily modded

Multiple points of entry. Rockpiles that can be used for murderholes. More strategy in troop deployment. Partially destructible environment. Getting got doesn't cause you to automatically lose.
Probably more.

Yes. Artillery, Attacker defences such as having barricades so your archers can shoot safely, siege towers. Theres good videos on it man.

I hope someone makes a combat overhaul to make the combat more arcadey. I definitely understand the appeal of old school melee combat actually giving you control of what your character is doing, but I just want to be a hero.

The beta is multiplayer only you dumb retard, EA will have both

what was wrong with horse archers?

He has fallen for horse archers just charge meme.

In Warband they mostly charged in mindlessy, in Bannerlord they flank to harass enemy archers and avoid direct melee combat

holy fuck you're objectively wrong on every point you stupid cunt.

The beta that's currently happening is the MP only test, the EA is the full game including single player for testing.

absolute retard, YOU kill yourself.

just play with autoblock and decreased damage sustained like any sane casul man do

>he hasn't played dickplomacy
it's basically a giant modpack like normal diplomacy but with some /vg/ mods, lewd shit, and general QoL

A Mountain Blade with a persistent open world would be ludo. The overworld is alright but can you imagine something more immersive?

Attached: 1566264328470.jpg (619x460, 46K)

They're adding physics-based collisions and the ability to hit multiple targets at once. As long as you lower the difficulty, you can probably play as Guts right out of the gate.
I want the same as you.

If they did this the map would be 20 times smaller, an option to camp out wherever you want with secrets and stuff like in fallout (1 and 2) would be nice tho

Both of those retards are wrong.
Horse archers were just as dumb as every other unit, but knew enough to kite as long as they had ammo, and their aim wasn't very impressive. They would usually kill very few troops, while being a massive pain in the ass to actually kill. Field battles against Khergits were usually Pyrrhic victories, with their Lancers racking up kills, unless you were outnumbered badly enough to lose.

Daily reminder that Bannerlord has shown more gameplay already than Cyberpunk 77 has.

There are multiplayer servers for these. Also one singleplayer mod that is like this.

Just play Mordhau or For Honor if you want that

Quick question about the first one, do i have to control armies or can i join big fights by myself and larp as a lone mercenary?

seconding this

Why are they pushing the battering ram there, the gate's open already

You don't "have to" do anything. You can play the game as a merchant, if you wish.
If you join a faction, as a mercenary or a lord, they will expect you to have a minimum number of troops when summoned to the campaign, relative to your anticipated income.
The minimum troop numbers are comically low, but if you want to truly fly solo, it'll always be greater than one. Mercenaries get a stipend and lords, even landless ones, are expected to not be completely broke niggers.

You can if you join faction in base game. In modded its common feature to be able to pick which side you want to aim but best option of all is to check if the mod has freelancer (usually in bigger mods) that allows you to join lords army as a soldier earn promotions etc.

Just ignore the shitposters, there's gonna be a lot more of them and the cuck mods aren't gonna do anything

>How can you not be hyped?

it's not worth becoming a lord early in the game, you'll always be given some shit border village that will be constantly raided with no support from the local Lords
you won't become Marshal and the AI Marshals are stupid as fuck and just frustrating to deal with
just get into trading and defeating roving bands or become a mercenary and just fight on their campaigns and against their enemies. It's a bit more fun doing this on mods like in ACOK, partially because the economy is fucked and you can make serious money relatively easy, there's the Iron Bank, and more to explore with more dangerous and varied roving bands

I forgot was there someone planning to make a warhammer mod?

cRPG does this you know
and Bannerlord is going to have even higher MP player sizes
with the possibility of larger maps and more things to do (board games for instance) it could become almost MMO tier
looking forward to it, plan on playing as a tradesmen

Almost every single screenshot i see of people playing Warband in this thread and on Yea Forums shows them running the game at low to medium settings.

I might go western simply because it being the rightmost and conquering my way to the left pleases my autism. Southern/Northern might be better since they are adjacent and can be more easily combined.

doin well, happy about bannerlord, and you?

I'm good bro

What’s wrong with that? I’m glad they’re keeping to their old formula and improving the graphics and AI

the biggest issue I think is the length of battles in terms of the goings-ons with the overworld map as all strategic value would be lost
because the battles can last so long on the battle map that someone could easily traverse from anywhere else on the map and join it

Either the empire of that one faction that takes it's inspiration from the slavs (I forgot it's name)

I am general romanophile and like both periods though I have been playing modded Attila a lot recently.

PS. still yet to change my potato to some pc

Id be totally fine with that if I were playing with friends. With randoms it might be more annoying. If it were limited to 2 player I dont think itd be very jarring either way though

Vlandian or Battanian Chads.

Hopefully this one will have a victory condition and not force me to keep playing until I'm bored enough to drop it myself. Shit like that leaves a bad taste and ensures I'll never play again.

so what are Rhodoks exactly? are they a semi-Swadized remnant of Imperial peasants akin to Northern Italians? a different ethnicity entirely that just remained?

yes, very

Same. Im at GC atm and played it for the first time, hits feel heavier and riding is a bit sloggier but feels more satisfying. Its not perfect and I wasnt blown away, but it has the same retardation gameplay feeling that warband has which is nice

You wont get blown away by it but it also isnt a let down, kinda really like a warband 2.0 and frankly I didnt want anything else. Theres still a quite some room for improvement and I hope they work on that. Soundeffects were meh and some animations were meh, I hope taleworlds will listen to the overall feedback.

In theory but we dont know until we played it.

here's my idea
in the server we have this program, let's say "server broker.exe".
This program in the server simply copies bannerlord map states and broadcast it to the network. It also can patch the states from client data. In the server, Bannerlord only runs overworld map, nothing else (player disabled).

Meanwhile in the client, we also have "client broker.exe" program. In client Bannerlord, the map states simply copied from the server, and also the player data are transferred to the server, which then the server will apply it via server broker.

cont.

When a player enters a combat or a place, the client request for that state, then starts a local dedicated server with that states like map, troops, etc. (hopefully there is a function/procedure in the game script that allows to join a server battle in single player like battle time in warband). And the player logs into that local dedicated server. That dedicated server's IP is also sent to the campaign server.
Why another dedicated server? because you want another player to join the same place and time like you do.

On the topic of horsefuckery.
I vaguely remember a long time ago playing vanilla m&b in an internet caffe and I ran into a field battle with Khergits where they formed a Cantabrian circle and aimbotted me and my Swadian Knight posse to hell and back. Is that something that was actually in game at one point and got nerfed, or was it some sort of bootleg mod I didn't know I launched, or was it all some fever dream?

its able to be ticked at any time in the options menu when you press escape key

Horse archers tend to run around and away. It might have just randomly looked like it was some complex formation.

I remember that one of relases of dickplo had HA sorted out. AI rly knew what to do. It was 4.3.0.7b relase iirc.

Also reminder cantabrian circles never run around the enemy so if you were in the circle probably just happenstance and if the circle was in front you probably mod.

hard to choose, the ruff and tumble battanians or the honed and tempered valandians
north western europe in a nutshell, might be a battanian who ends up conquering the valandians and assimilating them. what will i do with the nords though?

>what will i do with the nords though?
Slaughter?

No they were definitely far ahead of me, it was quite noticeable because they we're running in circles at a slight incline, and I was charging towards them from my spawn.
After typing all of this down I'm definitely leaning towards a mod because they had hard tipped laser designated arrows.

Kill them all they are a proud and grumpy people.

Thats because they would need to blur out half the screen if they showed anymore of CyberTranny

i will like to see diplomacy options, in warband if you wanted to ally with somebody it meant "we wont declare war on you randomly" and nothing else.

I eat peanut butter straight up but only do a spoonful of it. 145 pounds here.

I've never played a Mount and Blade game before. Which one should I play? Is warband a good starting point?

On perma death.
I have heard you can turn it off. My question is can you turn it off at any time or only at start.
I am hoping I can start with a merchant type to set up an infrastructure to keep my future kingdom well funded and once I am ready turn perma death off for the char I will play to the end.

I don't want to have to waste time building up new characters all the time.

user stay strong
you need survive

Just play warband and install the Diplomacy mod through steam workshop. Its all you'll need

Good is a strong term. Just wait for Bannerlord.

Warband. Go with no mods or if you have to diplomacy since when you go mods you will never come back.

You'll never get me

Warband, get diplomacy (or dickplomacy from , it has few cool features more than diplo)

Later on you may want to run some mods, there is quite a lot of them.

my biggest dream is a witcher mod for butterlord with all the northern factions, nilfgaard, scoia tael etc. and cat school witchers being mercenaries for hire

the only issue is that monsters would be extremely difficult to implement since they'd need custom models and animations and shit, but it would be neat since there could be monster mechanics where parties spawn on the map where big battles were fought and they'd harass the peasants, and lords will need to hire witchers to deal with the problem

kind of a shame they've never delved into religion in M&B, as it's a pretty important feature in Viking Conquest
they could just ripoff of the Videssos Cycle and have a manichean-type not-Christianity religion

Bros....
We're almost there...

A comparison for you zoomers would be that M&B is like the Battlefield of medieval games in terms of scale (massive battles with cavalry + infantry + archers in 200-300 player servers), whilst other medieval games are like COD (not more than 20 guys in a match and mostly on foot, it's more like a small skirmish than a battle)

What do you mean, all the factions are new or at least different then their warband counterpart, and brettanians are completely new also

And with better modding support and quality of life updates? Sign me the fuck up bro, Prophesy of Pendor 2 biiiiitch.

Yeah but, it's more of roleplaying thing. All the 'new' factions mirror the old ones, you have knight faction, slav faction, viking faction, horsefucker faction, sandnigger faction. Empire is supposed to by byzantines, something the Warband simply didn't have.

>How can you not be hyped?
because of the fact that it will be delayed again

Aserai. Most aesthetic arms and armor.

Do the three empires have different cultures like the Eastern and Western Roman empires? More traditional Roman aesthetics vs Byzantine aesthetics? Has that been confirmed?

The empire is based on Byzantium not Western roman.

Which is much more kino and sparsely used

I agree, image is not representative, but thats still what im gonna do. Also isnt the northern empire supposed to be rome and southern empire byzantium

Dont think so, would definitely be cool for each Empire faction to have their elite unit(cavalry, infantry, archers)

But i think it just represents a massive Empire now in civil war

I dont usually spoonfeed but here you go user! In spirit of bannerlord. TL; DL I remember from head slight eq one is run by dude who wants republic and one by classic soldier general fturning to emperor while one is coal burner queen.

It could be loosely based on the whole Latin Empire vs Empire of Nicaea following the 4th crusade, rather than the WRE vs ERE division.

The fact that there are so many options make modding easier to extrapolate these systems to even bigger or smaller systems that add more value and options. I'm impressed, I hope they keep cloth physics tho, I saw that they didn't have that option on for the multiplayer demo or the early access trailer.

As much as MnB. The game desperately needs a brace function for a group of spear men. Similar to how total war does it with their spear units in three kingdoms and Warhammer, spear units that are together and not moving get a brace bonus and hold down their position against charging enemies.

Multiple factions since you can have children

Save up for a pc.

Yes, that seems to be the only viable option. Or I could just put it off until they release samuraikino, or that spooky mod in Mount and Blade

My dreams are finally answered. I can finally play battles like in LOTR movies.

It was shown and it's amazing. When you ride the camera moves like it would do irl

it was shown, pretty much the same as warband but now there's also an FoV option for it

It just the usual game dev thing on lying and making up stuff about your game and nothing more. I bet the guy has some grudge against turkroaches because they randomly brought it up along with Chinks. Just ignore the faggot.

Despite having hundreds of hours in Warband I somehow never heard of Viking Conquest. Is it a good buy?

It's alright, if you can buy it for below $10
it's basically just a bigger mod

its basically brytenwalda but less boring and more polished,its by the same developers of the mod too, if you like the viking setting then go for it, but that's about all it has to offer, it changes some mechanics from Warband and you may or may not like those changes

Not like Medieval 2's buggy battles can't be a pain in the ass too. Especially sieges. Jesus christ.

So what game does all the different things warband does, better than warband? Fucking retard.

I've been watching interviews and it's really sounding like early access will be the full product, not just the multiplayer

EA is all about Singleplayer, Multiplayer currently has a close beta going, probably will go open sometime next year

in fact let me correct myself - they practically confirm it "we have more than 40 cities, hundreds of cities and castles and we'll need feedback from players to make sure everything's clicking"

youtube.com/watch?time_continue=143&v=Z-4Zd3YWVGI

Screencap this. It's clearly all a fuckin scam, turkroaches at it again as usuel. Fuck off with this cgid piece of shit.

I never played single player in this game but I loved playing musicians in multiplayer. Also the community is pretty redpilled

Not really a huge fan of death mechanics, I like building up my guy and don't really feel like playing a ck2 eugenics minigame for my dynasty, or at least dealing with periodically losing a bunch of levels.

That is how they've done early access for their last two games. Mount & Blade is usually feature complete when it goes into EA, and it is used basically to make sure everything is working, balanced (as well as they can get it anyway), fun, function, etc.

You can turn off that feature.

the new dynasty stuff is all optional

Oh cool. I don't dislike the idea but I'll probably do a playthrough or two in the warband style before giving it a shot.

the beta is mp only, not the EA
