clyde Posted August 23, 2017 I'm super excited about Bannerlord and I was NOT expecting a five-on-five multiplayer mode where you order troops around. I'm so excited. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TychoCelchuuu Posted August 23, 2017 I actually came here to make a thread about this after getting equally excited by that video. It's everything I've ever wanted from Mount & Blade multiplayer. This game is going to be amazing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If it's all of the depth and texture of the first game(s) and none of the jank, it'll be one of those games that I might play for years. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
YoThatLimp Posted August 23, 2017 Man, so looking forward to this! I'm glad they are finally starting to release footage, I was getting a little nervous! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

clyde Posted August 23, 2017 Here is what they wrote regarding the lack of a release-date. http://steamcommunity.com/games/261550/announcements/detail/2353548518936257594 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
eRonin Posted August 24, 2017 Commander Battles is my favourite multiplayer game mode in the Napoleonic Wars DLC, so I'm glad Bannerlords will feature this! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
clyde Posted August 24, 2017 I had no idea this mode was in Fire&Sword until I read a RPS article yesterday. I'll wait for Bannnerlord. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Erkki Posted August 27, 2017 I hardly play games any more, but this is exciting. M&B Warband multiplayer was the most time I've ever spent on any single game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Erkki Posted September 1, 2017 Maybe it's that I've been away from playing any games lately, but it seems a bit too chaotic. I can't tell what's going on from those videos, or what the actual dynamics of the battle are. (I skimmed the videos) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TychoCelchuuu Posted September 1, 2017 Skimming probably doesn't help, because the camera cuts already make it tough to follow. The general idea is that flags spawn around the map, and the teams are trying to capture the flags by standing near them, but also you can win by killing all of the enemy. So basically those are the goals the players have, and they are ordering their troops around to accomplish that. The latest video has lots of skirmishing by horse archers, some charges on infantry by cavalry, and infantry defending flags. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Erkki Posted September 1, 2017 Watching some PC gamer video overview... man it looks so familiar in many ways, especially the world map, menus etc. I hope they will actually have a better single player campaign this time, though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
