good to see they were picked up by a publisher after all this time of doing it all themselves ..pretty good success story on how Indie studios can make a critically acclaimed game

I've been following and have been a member of this game since it was first allowed into downloadable beta.
 
played a couple of the builds over the year ..it was fun but not enough content to keep me coming back
 
Never heard of it before. Video looks randomly fun. Graphics aren't fabulous, but that's to be expected for something that's been in the making for "several years".

Also the camera's rather odd... kind've like the Mitchell and Webb sketch with the drunks...
 
best melee combat in a pc game bar none ..imho
 
Looks like they did some tweaks to the graphics, the water looks real nice. I only just stopped playing the latest version of the beta a few days ago, and ill definitely pick it up again when its released.
 
They would've been better off marketing just the combat engine and selling it as a bolt-on for game developers. Oblivion could have been so much better with this.
 
Fun game, but it only takes a few hours to become unstoppably-strong, and it doesn't have much replay value, either.

Die by the Sword still had better combat, though.
 
Awesome. So if I already bought it, I still legally own my licence to play?
 
The great thing? I only paid a small amount of cash way back in the early days of development...

I already own the game. Same with anybody else who bought it and still has a key.

I just need to wait until release and use my key. :D

Hey Raz, is there anyway to find my key? I already have M&B installed, didn't figure I'd need it again.
 
Never heard of this game before, but I checked out the demo. Was surprised how good it was. I've got so many other games to play right now that I haven't really gotten deep into it though.
 
On their website some where it tells you how to get your key again.

It does? Wow.

I had to search for my DVD that I had mine on. :o

I didn't even think about checking the site.
 
one shot kills with arrows?

doesn't seem that fun to me.

If your experience level is high + aim is good enough.


The game goes for a semblance of realism. If you get shot in the eye you won't be fighting any longer.

This game is loads of fun, please don't knock it until you've played it, unless you want the title of "asshat"
 
Me and my clan played it for two weeks non-stop, lol (we went through like 6 mods).

It's actually very fun, and if you get bored, you can always download mods and if your computer is strong enough, download the Battle Size Changer and have 400+ battles :D (up to 1000)
 
I've been looking through alot of these mods for the game but they only seem compatible with older versions of the game. Anyone have a site where I can get the latest mods?
