Current Events > Have I been sleeping under a rock? Chivalry 2 is awesome

(+) Yeah! (+)

Game is so fun. Its basically like a FPS but its medieval style. Youre fighting with swords, maces, bows, halberds, axes all that. Ballistas and shit too.

This is the best new concept Ive played in a while.

new concept

uhhh

Dunno how it is now, but when I played it last year most people were playing for the lols and not taking the game seriously. That is honestly one of the best parts of the game. I think the Monty Pythonesqe tutorial really sets the stage and influences how people play the game.

Name another game you can play 64 player online battles like this.

I mean after 2 years it should be good now right?

Only played the launch beta which was meh and had barely any content.

For Honor is 4v4. This is like that if the battles were eight times the size. It adds an element of chaos that makes you feel really immersed.

Ive heard its improved a lot. I mean youre basically doing the same thing every match but theres enough objectives and classes to keep it fun.

I like the Source mod the series was based on called Age of Chivalry. Now that was part of the golden age of good online multiplayer.

Well I redownloaded it out of curiosity from this topic. Not too shabby, they added 2 more kingdoms, more objectives, horseback combat, and a stupid af hilarious brawl mode where everyone supposedly gets shitfaced and fights each other lol.

I mean yeah it always deconstructs back down to the same Battlefield-esque rambo play but I appreciate the mindlessnesss of it all for a couple hours at a time.

Chivalry 1 is mechanically better

Female character customization options are nice though

Slay those cowardly bownen!

Lmao I honestly suck at the game so when I keep getting slaughtered I like to switch to bowmen and just snipe people. Honestly the only class Id say Im even decent with.

Even when Im getting my ass kicked its fun though.

Played the hell put of the first game. Never played the second since it was an epic exclusive. Dunno if I care to get into it now that it's on Steam.
