Mount & Blade: With Fire And Sword

[Armatus]

Maybe talk the guys from Xenophonia into working with M&B.

[Aquila SPQR]

I have it and play it very often. It's nice, but not great. Has some bugs, has annoying system of patching etc, but it's still an awesome experience to shoot all enemies of the Commowealth in the face an them cut off their heads with a saber!*


(*cutting heads not available, it's just authors' freaked imagination)

Have the people heard about the new Mount and blade with fire and Sword?


What are your thoughts?

[Bolkonsky]

Check the community news thread. Lots of stuff about it there.

[molonthegreat]

Shouldn't it have a thread of it's own though?

I think the game looks very interesting and I'll probably buy it at release.

[Innos]

I'm definitely buying it, simply cannot wait to play as the Cossacks .

[Eneru112]

Hussars are way superior.

[Tuskin4]

So there making a English version great.

[Sir.Cojocarius]

The biggest like about the game to me. Is that they are actually leaving the fantasy world and go for a historical setting instead!

Won't be very realistic though.. first of all you shouldn't be able to travel 149234889 meters in 14 real life seconds lol. Or something. Second of all, mountain blade does not support large 3000 man battles, thus this game probably won't be very realistic.

[GoodSmurfin]

Its a game, what do you expect? Do you really think anyone wants to wait days for their soldiers to get from point a to point b? And yes mount and blade can support around 1500 man battles it called battle sizer, but even then its not like all battles in history were fought on large scale.

That's 149,234.89 kilometers which is halfway to the Moon

No, I just think the ingame world should be much larger. Poland should be around the size of Calradia.

And half the amount of miles on my car.

Anyways, games need to find a balance between realism fun. ArmA II, which is regarded as the most realistic shooting game to date, still allows you to hop in any car and drive away in seconds, because otherwise, you'd be wandering around on foot for hours, and the game would be no fun at all.

I just wish that this was a bit more historically accurate.

A new gameplay trailer from some venue:

[Zemdu]

nice, i'm defiently playing as the swedes

[Swagger]

cossacks!

[molonthegreat]

Swedes! I like the unit customisation, it will be nice to have my entire army mounted fully armoured and armed with hand grenades. Hand grenades will probably be awesome in sieges.

[Swagger]

except they will cost tons of money..


nothing like an accurate bow

[molonthegreat]

Well at least in native warband it's quite easy to get large sums of money, I would imagine that it's the same situation in this game. I still hope pillaging villages is as profitable since that's always easy money , did you see that hand grenade? the guy butchered them with it, just think what kind of damage one could deal if you only had hand grenades.
