Gilok posted:no, they rolled it back to 6.35's vertex buffer system from whatever they did in 6.40. 6.40 was unplayable due to graphics glitches. I don't know why 6.35 would perform better. Can't say, I haven't played 641 or 640, maybe they fixed whatever was wrong with the new vertex buffer system and replaced the 635 one. Whatever it is, I hope the next release runs as well as 635 does. ::EDIT:: What do you guys recommend to listen to while playing? Of course, the Conan soundtrack is great but i've exhausted it.

So is there any reason to game about this? Conquest, the Star Wars mod, and Age of Revolution with the Napoleon minimod are treating me pretty well.

Mizkif posted:Which one of you is Don't Stab Me Bro? You're pretty good. This is he. My only real strategy is buy great sword or a big 2h axe. Wear no armor for speed bonus and badass points. As for the fighting, when approaching archers you can run so that the side of your body is facing them as they fire making them likely to miss. Manual block is god, but conversely if you're blocking you're already losing. This game favors hyper-agression. There's very little risk in swinging too early as long as you go into the next attack immediately. In summary, have a long weapon, swing a lot, and stay at max range for that weapon so they can't counter. Eventually you will connect once or twice and kill them. Make sure to spin around like mad so that you can see horsemen and stuff coming up on you. A good trick to receive a charge is to chamber for a side attack, say, from left to right horizontal. Then as the horse approaches switch so that you are on the horseman's right. Turn your body clockwise and release, aiming at his body.

Dude, I've still not received any info about being able to download this. I bought the game full price years ago, kind annoyed. How long did most of you wait? Can I check online somehow if I've been accepted? I bought it directly through the taleworlds site, so they emailed me the serial.

I guess my friends and I just got really lucky then. We all applied within a few days of each other, and all of us got our keys within a day or so. Then again we're all from Canada so maybe they have a Canadian bias?

tylertfb posted:I'm having the same problem. Are you using an ATI video card? I have a HD4850 and it's laggy as heck. I started the beta in v .515 and ran it smooth as hell up until .641 (I never played .640 as it was out only one day) I'm really frustrated, as I can't play the game well anymore. My card and game doesn't lag at all (I get a constant 100FPS) but holy hell does it overheat and I get warnings about it (minimizing a bit is a temporary solution) Also, Kudo's to "Don't stab me bro" and the other goon who formed our strategy of going all calv and hiding in the barn, and then charging out, and then full frontal charge immediately the next round, and then left flanking charge the next. Also a reminder, do not use Yahoo mail as your email account for this game.

they can... EDIT: gently caress it I cannot take this duel poo poo anymore. I finally noticed a server that was deathmatch, had players in it, and low latency. There was nothing in the name or join message about duels. I go in and start tearing poo poo up. Just slaughtering tons of people. Got a 8/1 score in about 2 minutes. Then someone warned me it was a duel server. Before I could even apologize or leave of my own free will I'm then booted. It makes me so angry!

I didn't get how the server names worked, i just assumed they were game modes and i'd be forced to play that way so I forgot once I got in, equipped a bow and proceeded to headshot one player in every nearby duel and laugh my rear end off before I got kicked.

Also, someone wanted some tips on getting on the top of the scoreboards and someone mentioned hyper-aggresion. This is correct. My best strategy is either go solo, and go the long way around by yourself, and flank the enemy archers for easy kills, or get the team to try a new route of attack, massing, and overwhelming the enemy.

Yeah, now that you got the confirmation e-mail you should get another e-mail telling you that your serial has been activated whenever they decide to push out a new patch, that seems to be when they do it. So if that confirmation e-mail is new to you, then its probably a step in the right direction.

I hate Battle mode, especially in that stupid town map. I'm no good at this game, so this mode translates into me watching other people jerk around for 10 minutes while I wait to spawn. And why do all the good deathmatch servers have to be "DUALS ONLY NO HORSE". With whomever said it before, those servers are only fun for the 3 minutes it takes me to be kicked after I shoot/couch everyone down.
