Ah I'm not that lame, I've been using vg in duel lately

tower shield and/or dodging
I'm rank 44 and I really feel they ruined the game. Blocking radius is way too much, and the claymore is way too op. Footwork just can't be used as effectively because people can just block anything easily. Combat is so 2 dimensional, it feels like feinting is required to break blocks now.
that or crazy drags the problem is they changed 50 different things instead of one at a time so you literally cant compare things
We maul now?

Nothing really special but a tiny update of some swords in Bushido Feudal warfare.

I think Hammer Time would have been a much more fitting (albiet overused) soundtrack.

claymore is hilariously op. running around doing overheads like every second is great.
what is torn banner doing now? the game is so radically different from the release version it's crazy.
I think they just decided to do everything at once as soon as they got their office settled down. They changed pretty much everything they could without testing it, while trying to add new maps, dlc hats, and customization at the same time. They basically haven't tested any of the gameplay changes and haven't played the game long enough to understand the combat.
Its a bit of a bummer because long time players have been playing and perfecting styles for 500+ hours and now they gotta relearn everything. That's not the bad part though, every single weapon and class lost potential. Its like going from the quake 3 rocket launcher to the TF2 rocket laucher. You get less ammo, you gotta reload which limits how much you can shoot and you move slow as molasses in comparison. Perhaps its more balanced, but its sure as hell there's a lot less potential. Its way too much of a dramatic change imho, especially when people had gotten accustomed to the rewarding skill ceiling for several months.

seeing videos like this makes me want a mount&blade with chivalry combat, it'd be so fucking awesome
What do you mean?
I prefer m&b combat for third person
Chivalry's combat is much more smooth and fun as compared to the complexity of M&B's. I prefer both FP and TP for Chivalry, although, pretty much anything is better than first person in M&B.
I really like the buffs the Maul got.

they should make every weapon that huge.
ffa would be the best.

I wouldn't call it complex, it just has a couple of different skill factors.
[QUOTE=Captain Chalky;41425198]I'm planning on getting this during the Summer Sale but I didn't like original Half Life 2 mod at all (but I like PVKII). Just how similar is the combat system in Medieval Warfare? I've done some research and from what I've seen myself, it looks different enough.[/QUOTE]
It's harder and much less fluid.
Everyone has much less health (dying in two or three hits is the most common) , getting hit will interrupt you (a stun, kinda) and ranged weapons are harder to land but do much more damage.
Is this worth buying?
[QUOTE=PredGD;41434349]Is this worth buying?[/QUOTE]
For $6, yes.
Even if you don't like it, $6 isn't much of a loss.

Just bought it and I'm excited to see how this plays out!
But in general, has it been worth it for you for example? Is this any fun?

Well, if you find hitting people with swords and things fun. It's quite hard to get into but when you do it's pretty fun killing people due to how chunky the sound effects are.
I guess it's been worth it but I paid full price for it, though if I bought it for $6, I would have reckoned it was worth it.
when the game first came out and everyone was new it was well worth it
atleast then everyone was on the same level of experience
the gameplay is also much different from what it was then, for good or for worse
there's a LOT of new people right now as well
also this is the manliest game in existence
Fuck sake if I had waited a week I would have got a few £££ off.
Damn you steam summer sale!!
if you're new please please please play the tutorial. it's annoying when a new guy gets in and starts swinging and ends up killing half the team.
Not sure if they changed horizontal swings, but the last time I played(before the first content update) horizontal attacks were borderline useless. I only used them when I flanked multiple enemies or when I wanted to keep a distance.
Or if a shielded guy blocked few overheads or stabs so I go for a surprise horizontal.

Oh god. I started playing yesterday and my first impressions are: Fucking hard game!
Sometimes i feel like i have to hit someone 6 times while they only have to hit me 1~2 times.
I feel like i'm underpowered or something.
I like to play Men-At-Arms using only the sword. Is this the problem?

man-at-arms is almost useless (well not really but he's very hard), his weapons are quite weak.
I would honestly recommend you start out with vanguard or knight instead. Stay away from archer and man at arms until you're decent.

If you know how to play him MAA can slay multiple knights/vanguards without getting hit.
But yeah is has a high skill floor relative to vanguard/knight

Did they nerf Man-at-arms?
Because he was my favorite class by far
Fast overheads and then back off. One more and you got a kill.
Use dodge as a charge attack instead of dodging. Best shit ever, it was the only class I could easily be in first 3 in the leaderboards. I was so fucking terrible with everyone else.
It was also my first veteran helmet<3
