Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord

[Aemar]

Installed. The game works well even on lesser rigs, like mine. Playing a custom battle right now.

What are your specs?

i5-4460 CPU@3.20 Ghz, GeForce GTX 1050 Ti 4GB, 16 GB DDR3.

Looks like Taleworlds' European servers are still overloaded. Had to use a US VPN connection to buy it off their site.

IT IS BEAUTIFUL!

Sturgia's culture bonus looks terrible. Why didn't they give them some kind of boost to footmen instead of something that only works on a tiny part of the map? Only way I can see it being viable is if seasons are in and winter makes the whole map snowy.

Whats the difference between this and mount&blade 1 again?

Seiges don't suck. People have families. People can die. Battle size can go to 2000 something instead of hard caping at 600 something and being practically capped at 200.

Progression seems to be a lot deeper. There are perk trees for each skill.

I can't believe the harvesting season is finally here.

The engine. Supposedly better modding capacity, so the difference is in the future. As of right now, it looks better, permits for more dudes at a time, has dynasties and is set a couple of centuries earlier, with he weapons and armors for that period.

YOU CAN FUCK MIDGETS !!

Melee combat seems a bit more difficult. I've barely disposed of 5 looters.

What starts change your sibling? Is it just dependent on which culture you choose at the beginning?

According to this, 60k players right now. Not bad.

 

[IDtenT]

I hope everyone is playing on realistic difficulties.

Most people are still DLing it, if they're even up yet.

I had to try it several times.

Combat is more brutal than in Warband, that's for sure. Realistic difficulty is the only way to go.

Pretty accurate considering the demography of modern Sweden

The practice fights from the town arenas are quite visceral (nevermind the tournaments). Managed to remain the last one standing and win one of those bouts simply because I carried a sword and a shield.

It's harder to dodge arrows and it's not unusual to go down after only one strike to the head.

 

[Wunderbar]

It doesn't work, gives me generic appcrash.

oh well, that's early access for me

I somehow managed to win a proper tournament despite making a le happy merchant and all I got was some crappy helmet. At least there seems to be types of tournaments now so it's not just the same old same old.
