/mbg/ - Mount & Blade General

If only there was a mod set in that area…

I have killed hundreds, maybe thousands, of belligerent drunks.

Warwolf is the Ultimate mod

The bravest fuckers on Calradia, willingly going after the one man murder machine 1v1.

I'm posting Cao Cao in honour of the poster who was posting in honour of the original Cao Cao poster until we get a good Romance of the three kingdoms mod.

There must be something to "improve" this design feature. Please help mbg

stats, moveset, and mod

>dual wielding
they make great target practice in the few mods that implement them however.

>There will be another hotfix in a few days (earliest weekend) but we cannot guarantee that it will be game save compatible. Please bear this in mind if you would rather not keep restarting your game it may be worth waiting and seeing. The next hotfix will include all these fixes as well if you would rather wait.

lol, modders. When will they finish what they promised?

Why does it always feel good to bully scots?

I think that i saw shit alike in >floris, but also im asking help to port m&b wbnd axe throwing to viking conquest. Someone failed to upload instructions in nexusmods and im not vaccinated to try in taleworlds.

what

Excuse me, im from fail land, where i never should leave.

i don't like this new shit opinion meme

It's actually a good opinion, and cool.

VILE WITCHCRAFT

i dunno what the hell you're trying to say is the thing

I hate the French.

it is in fact an opinion of the worst quality and totally uncool

but why should melee attacks phase through shields?

have fun getting hitstunned to death

you already get hitstunned when you get hit without blocking though

Good points

Spears and thrust specializing swords like rapiers should be able to attack while shield is raised too.

>passively block every attack happening around you
>proceed to get stunlocked and unable to do anything

That would be fixed if proper weaponry could attack while shield was raised

that's fucking retarded

you wouldn't be able to block "every attack happening around you" since idle shields don't have 360 coverage. besides, say you weren't passively blocking all those attack, you would still be getting stunlocked, you would probably even die.

block hitstun from shields can happen regardless of who hits you
braindead idea

so maybe the penalty for passive blocking is that it doesn't cause hitstun

or maybe don't have such a retarded idea in the first place

no it makes perfect sense
literally what is the problem if it doesn't cause hitstun?

>let's make shields even better
>let's make two handed builds have almost zero drawbacks over one handed builds

Not only is it rational there is even precedence

Don't fear properly implemented spears

>let's make two handed builds have almost zero drawbacks over one handed builds
I assume you meant one-handed builds having no drawbacks.
in which case two-handed users could have a shoulder-mounted shield that provides passive block.

>VC actually turns out to be great, and not just a native reskin
What the fuck's wrong with you, /mbg/? Why did you tell me it sucked?

It would be better if two-handed weapons could just blow away a shieldman's guard (or the shield itself) with much more ease. Which they can already do to a lesser extent anyways.

getting mixed messages if that hooker is supposed to represent VC

I haven't seen many people hate on VC since Reforged came out.

VC is pretty good right now, but it sucked hard in release. I think a few people stuck to that thought since then.

When was the last time you came here? People have been saying VC is good since Reforged and I posted my campaign a lot back in 2016 when I had more free time to play VC. I love VC.

Whose blood was shed?

The consensus is that story mode sucks and sandbox is good.

What should I play when I inevitably get tired of the VC main quest?
>ACOK
>The Last Days
>Swedish Mayo
>Caribbean
I really think both ACOK and TLD sound great, but I've heard lots of negatives about it here on /mbg/. Swedish Mayo sounds a little too bland and vanilla-like, especially since I got tired of Gekonewer after only a few hours due to the lack of variety.

Swedish Mayo.

The story mode is actually good though.

>especially since I got tired of Gekonewer after only a few hours due to the lack of variety
While S.Mayo is fundamentally a modified Native mod it is the polar opposite of Gekokujo when it comes to weapon and unit variety.

>dark souls
lmao
the more you post the worst your ideas get

I disagree.

>guy asks for something not bland and vanilla-like
>recommend Suvababbalumata Matata

...

>the more you post the worst your ideas get
not an argument

If he didn't want me to recommend Swedish Mayo, he shouldn't have put it on the list of options.

>t. didn't even play VC
I bet you're the same guys who shitpost about how bad Brytenwalda is due to the optional the realism settings

For Honor™

it's not vanilla-like at all. shit has elephants, hand cannons, and repeating crossbows.

How do the various upstab mods in the pastebin work? Do you just put them in the original mod's folder?

>Walk backwards and fall
>Realism

I have played Viking Conquest's story mode to completion and it is pretty boring. Sandbox is much better.

So again, I disagree.

>wearing a shield on your back or your arm passively blocks armors
>wearing fucking platemail doesn't
What did they mean by this?

>implying I didn't play the fuck out of VC
>defending boringblanda
We're sorry you have shit taste, user.

Don't listen to these guys, SM manages to be both janky unbalanced piece of shit while still being really bland.

I'm just trying to help him, man.

at least storyline leads into sandbox
aside from ragnar's seax i don't remember anything storyline exclusive

You shed the blood of the Saxon men.

>reward is clothes
we need to Crusader Kings this shit up

Sure, the storyline leads into sandbox, but I'd rather just start in sandbox than do the storyline ever again.

Also, that Berserker you kill on that farm in Denmark. His armor can only be obtained in the storyline and I think it might be the best armor in the game.

paying attention to people who post shit as retarded as passive blocking from melee from shields is as dumb as listening to SP babbies talk about MP balance

The reward is a woman. He was her suitor.

Get it together, user.

the game should be balanced around single-player and not multi-player
only MP dorks will deny this

It really should. MP is more niche and highly based on preference, let the modders sort it out.

Did Gekonever ever implement dickplomacy?

I'm not sure whats worst: That you can't tell trolling from serious posts, that you somehow related this to MP dueling, or that you are openly dismissive to anyone whom plays SP.

t. SP babby

As much as I hate MP elitism in the end the SP and MP are running on the same combat engine. I suspect for example that spears wouldn't be so retarded if they accounted for how it would play out against two competent players.

Secondly MP != dueling. Balancing a war game on dueling is fucking retarded and anyone that implies as much is fucking retarded.

>all of multiplayer is dueling

>I suspect for example that spears wouldn't be so retarded if they accounted for how it would play out against two competent players.
I think the opposite, spears in Warband are perfectly usable for a human player, but in the hands of the AI they are terrible.

or just balance the equipment based on the physical characteristics of the item

...

>Directional blocking system
>Can only attack in one direction
Shield + Spear is inexcusably bad. Two-handing is viable yes.

The minimum thrusting range and the AI's inability to properly account for this is pretty terrible as well. That minimum thrusting range is even a thing is pretty absurd really. I can understand your army slapping against an opponent while slashing but thrusting?

Shield+spear is bad but it's still worse for the AI. A human player at least knows the effective range of the spear and where it will glance. AI will facehug and throw out 0 damage stabs until they die, even with a two-handed spear.

in MP spears handle more like polehammers than spears
all of the problems with spears in native are easily fixed but they never did it

Upstab in Bannerlord, anons!

>Ginge confirmed on his ask.fm that there will be a borderless windowed mode

That makes me happy.

that he answered anything related to gameplay at all?

What the fuck

It was a woman, user. This Briton woman here in particular.

>ever getting tired of VC's exciting gameplay

this is more about the AI being dumb as shit
a big problem is giving the AI a 1her and a polearm
by default they'll keep swapping between weapons every 10 seconds or so and end up getting killed, you'd really need them to use polearms when against cavalry or at certain ranges, and then swap to 1her when the enemy closes in
