An old screenshot from the alpha, a loadout I made trying to emulate Warhammer Fantasy's Empire Flagellants.

and another to make Empire State Troop Halberdiers.

There's something magical about games that have a dedicated scream button.
There is something magical about games where I can pull axes of out myself and allies and return them to sender.
Game is a blast but it does have some issues.
I spent a solid fifteen minutes shooting at people with a recurve bow and not getting a single hit before noticing that my projectiles were just phasing through people.
I sure wish I had a stable internet connection right now. Also one that doesn't struggle to load basic websites
Why on earth did they allow team damage. I just had a guy straight up attack and try and kill his fellow archers because he thought they were useless as if it was agincourt all over again. We only had 4 of them they definitely were not the cause of us losing.
I get it realism but all it does is make people angry.
In Horde mode I was passing knifes along, by throwing them at my teammates, so others could grab them off their faces/backs.
friendly fire is plenty avoidable with some moderate control, stab more and spread out when youre in a group of teammates for more control for instance
Honestly, the only real gripe I have right now are the people who do nothing but use the rapier and spam stab you. They're playing like they're the Man-at-arms from Chivalry.
Hey buddy I think you've got the wrong door. The leather club's two blocks down.
one server i found actually has guaranteed exp & gold, the server name has the words "lagfree" in it. its usually big team deathmatch or reg deathmatch
Chamber them. Spamming any move makes you predictable and you can counter it
I heard from a user in-game that he got ungained XP and gold back randomly. Haven't happened to me.
I try, but I never seem able to pull it off. Whenever I try to counter 'em, their attacks somehow still make contact before I can push my own through.
Haven't gained gold and xp since day1, it's getting a bit frustrating to be honest, I really wanted to try out the executioners.
It's a matter of practice. Once you get the hang of it chambering is easy.
Did they get rid of the terribly exploitable mechanics or am I gonna get wrecked by a sweaty Knight smashing me over the head backwards?
Glorious. Gonna pick it up tonight.
Anyone mind sharing their thoughts on how this compares to Chivalry?
Combat feels a lot more fair (when connections are working and not spiking 200 ping randomly) and the tons of weapons with different stances mix up the combat greatly. Plus like others said, this is prolly the only game where i can rip axes out of my arm and throw them back at the assailant.
Oh, interesting. I might give it a shot, thanks.
There doesn’t seem to be any of the crap exploitable crap from Chiv either. There’s a few things that as a new player feel a bit hard to deal with but nothing like how chiv felt so exploitable.
For a chamber both weapons need to threaten and the hitboxes need to collide so it's a matter of practice and skill as @G-Strogg said
cleaver op also 2v1 sucks ass since they flank you and cant do shit other then die
chambering is hard
mirror their attack as if you're blocking, ie:attack left when their right attack almost lands
The combat tutorial goes over it briefly. I agree though it is pretty hard, except for stabs. Stabs are crazy easy to chamber.
that's why you take the dodge perk
