Are there good mods for Fire and Sword? I asked once but nobody said nuffin.

[QUOTE=Archonos 2;37588932]Are there good mods for Fire and Sword? I asked once but nobody said nuffin.[/QUOTE] Mods? Yes Good? Oh no

[QUOTE=hypno-toad;37578647]In all fairness as far as realism goes itd be damn near impossible to pierce full plate with a spear. Then again though only like 1% of soldiers on the field should be wearing full plate, shit wasnt common at all.[/QUOTE] Yes but as realism goes they weren't even using spear and shield in combat anymore by this period.

Fucking Christ. That's the third time I've been killed by an NPC "kicking" me repeatedly without ANY negative effects. At least I assume it's kicking, the only thing I see is him running forward and pulling back to swing at me, then I recoil backwards and drop my shield long enough for him to actually hit me. I tried kicking him back, and it worked once but I barely had enough time to shoot him once and he dodged my second kick and then kneed me and hit me again.

fuk gotta figure out how to use two or more texture files on a single model [img]http://cloud-2.steampowered.com/ugc/937002995127159412/B606F0C5B3E4DCFDB0DFDA758C58A9CEC5D345BB/[/img] and yes these are 360nospyglass scopes

I'm liking the illegal by treaty, corkscrew bayonets.

I think if you have a high shield skill the bashes dont do much, and likewise you'll be able to bash lower tier troops to the ground. The system is a bit biased against people using glaives and billkhooks though.

I'm done with Fire and Sword for now. There are next to no shields to find and bows are rare as well. My gun accuracy sucks while the enemies snipe me from across the battlefield. Back to Warband! [editline]8th September 2012[/editline] Also, best Warband mod? In terms of fun quality.

1257 AD (the dev svn version) Brytenwalda is pretty cool, but it's insanely hard at times.

He didn't have a shield, just a mace that he used to kill me with despite my best efforts. And I assume his boot, but again I don't know because [i]there was no fucking animation[/i]. That is a serious problem that should've been fixed before release, or at least soon after. Keeping the player locked in a constant stagger animation without showing them what's causing it half the time is [i]very[/i] poor design.

If you have some sort of missile weapon in hand you get staggered when people run at you.

[QUOTE=hypno-toad;37596477]Are you using a bow or javelin? If you have some sort of missile weapon in hand you get staggered when people run at you.[/QUOTE] A pistol. Are you serious? That's ridiculous. How does that make sense? It might make sense if I had a rifle, but a pistol is small and supposed to be balanced to prevent crap like that.

I think it's supposed to stop people from just point blanking enemies. I abuse the shit out of that mechanic in napeolonic wars. If you catch soembody offguard when they have their (non-bayonet) musket drawn you can just stunlock them like crazy by running into them and get free swings at them.

You keep people from pointblanking enemies by having their enemies use their weapons to beat them in the face. [i]Which staggers you if you're aiming[/i]. God that is a terrible mechanic. At the very least it shouldn't treat a shield like it's nothing, if my shield is up it should be obvious I'm bracing myself to get hit and not spazzing out because someone is near me.

That sounds more like an issue with WF&S, which it already has a lot of. Didnt realize you could use a pistol with a shield. That mechanic is just a leftover from warband where it actually makes sense (ie with bows and crossbows) but wf&s is pretty fucked in a lot of fascets. For instance the cossack rifleman in multiplayer has an athletics skill of like 10, so you can just run around naked with a spear and impale people with sheer momentum, its the most unbalanced crap ever and the devs never bothered to fix it.

I honestly feel kinda bad asking my friend to buy it for me when it was on sale for $2.50. I still get some enjoyment out of it, but seriously there are a [i]lot[/i] of problems and serious failings.

Thrown weapons are basically completely gone, I know there's 1 stack of throwing daggers you can get from Fatima if you recruit her, but renewable thrown weapons are gone. The pistol provides a way to drop fleeing enemies or to try and kill something while you're moving to engage.

-snip- Nevermind, apparently Win 7 just hates SVN.

It's literally just right clicking once in a folder, and entering a URL. [editline]9th September 2012[/editline] Like, there's a fucking guide of dummies on the taleworlds forum for it.

[editline]9th September 2012[/editline] Like, there's a fucking guide of dummies on the taleworlds forum for it.[/QUOTE] Yeah, no, it's not as easy on windows 7 because it restricts access so you cannot directly add the SVN to your modules folder, you have to put it somewhere else (like my documents) that is unrestricted and then cut and paste it.

I'd love to add the native campaign in Warband (in 'find items' cheat menu), or play the campaign in warband.

I actually did this once by taking the demo and adding it to Warband so I could play the full game. Needless to say, it crashed quite a bit so I just bought it when it went on sale.

I'm fucking loving the Star Wars mod for original M&B

I want the original M&B so I can play the Lortr mod, The Last Days or whatever it's called and the Star Wars mod but I have no money :C

[QUOTE=MrJazzy;37606686]I want the original M&B so I can play the Lortr mod, The Last Days or whatever it's called and the Star Wars mod but I have no money :C[/QUOTE] Original M&B is definitely worth just for all those awesome mods that are not available on Warband. Don't feel bad to acquire it otherwise, seeing as you already own both Warband and WFaS.

Oh man, I just had the greatest idea. Medieval II Total War mod.... Mount and Blade themed....

[QUOTE=Zillamaster55;37607960]Oh man, I just had the greatest idea. Medieval II Total War mod.... Mount and Blade themed....[/QUOTE] I wanted to make "Calradia: Total War" but I lack the skill. I could throw it out there on the forums and see if anybody likes the idea and wants to do it.

[QUOTE=Zillamaster55;37579991]If they take my horse once, I quit forever.[/QUOTE] I had around ~30 or so relatively high tier troops once, and I had just raided a small group of people so I had alot of junk with me. I walked into a castle that was being raided by my enemies and then found out I could not leave. All my troops died very soon. :suicide:

[QUOTE=Zillamaster55;37607960]Oh man, I just had the greatest idea. Medieval II Total War mod.... Mount and Blade themed....[/QUOTE] It needs to be made.
