So whats the deal with armour? Should I wear a piece in every layer? Is there a weight component that will slow me down?

I have 107.5% movement speed and there are some people I can't catch while in relatively heavy armor. I don't imagine most people most people have more movement speed than me, so armor definitely affects movement speed. But, overall it seems worth it to go heavy. People in Knightly Coat of Plates are hard to kill, unless you headshot them.

I guess my twitch video in the OP got deleted because twitch will only save so many past broadcasts, no matter how many views they had. This isn't the same video, but its a good one to replace it with, now stored on youtube. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RCjqkItFL8A

So, with the Epic, one tile = one real life hour. Unless I'm just not getting it, I've become terribly uninterested with it.

What they had in the trailer are basically all alpha features not fully implemented on the Public EA release and will slowly be introduced once the greater mechanics are fleshed out

I ended up getting a refund through Steam. Well the combat was fairly fun I've played too much M&B to be satisfied with just endless team deathmatch. Epic is the real meat and potatoes here but from the botched initial release it seems like it's not even remotely close to being ready, or at will be very bare bones. I'll probably pick it up again if they can figure out how to make it more than just TDM.

Honestly, the more I hear about Epic the more I'm ready to be disappointed. First of all, funneling all battles into a 4 hour window is too restrictive. The US has 3 major time zones, so it can be really inconvenient. For me I go to the gym almost every night usually for 2-2.5 hours, with travel, showering and making/eating food, that can end up being almost 4 hours. I understand and actually recommended the battle time funneling for Strategus after the EUs kept attaching on the NA server at like 2pm EST, but 4 hours is too little, 8 would probably be better. We have no idea what player count looks like but if OKAM is larger than crpg, 4 hours wouldn't be long enough for battles anyway. The next thing is 2 commands per day. That's fine and all, but the general understanding is no one is going to make the early morning command from their computer and game client. We would need a web interface or smart phone app. Currently in the hex map, having six players on one tile will block all other players, including your own kingdom. If the devs want 5000 people playing, the rule needs to change because that's 1250 players spawning on the same role, per kingdom. The worst part yet is we still don't really know what to expect or even when it will launch. Also I missed the NA dueling tournament but I'm pretty appalled that shields and the war scythe were allowed.

I want to like this game but I've been burned by one too many early access fiascos to even think about paying for it. Please continue reporting from the front lines, dear goons. If things start going well I'll pitch in close to release.

I think the combat is good, and its alright for early access. But it is just going to die when Bannerlord comes out.

Just got the game, can't wait to play with goons (but spoiler alert: I suck). Also, I just unlocked the longbow and I hate it a lot.

This game's population is leaving pretty quickly. I don't think I've seen more than 40v40 in a while. On the plus side, I'm famous. http://forum.ofkingsandmen.net/index.php?topic=1805.0

Refunded a while ago, was hoping I'd get a reason to buy back in when Epic dropped. Any good news?

Wow why's that guy gotta be so rude to you? Today I've been having fun tag-team trolling dudes with Skoll on the official forums. Lots of thin skins there. I still enjoy the game, but without 75v75 battles, the rate of XP you get has drastically dropped. It's becoming a chore to unlock things now. And I've just hit my first thrusting sword

I mean, do I just let the XP go to waste and use a decent 1H sword, or do I use these lovely thrusting swords to unlock more terrible thrusting swords? What a dilemma. It's why I suggested allowing earlier tier equipment let you gain XP for stuff further down the line when I was stuck using the Godenaks in the axe tree. I would have loved to use the Small Axe or Hatchet the entire time to unlock the Flanged Mace.

Thrusting swords have all their damage in stabbing, and you will often just stab through people for no damage. It is stupid.

Yes, so avoid wasting 300k+ of grinding awful weapons just to unlock a weapon worse than what you already have. Unless you want to ruin your enjoyment. Anyway they rolled out a new patch hopefully giving us more head armor as well as vote kicks and some balances, but the servers are having issues.

Their patch notes still suck... And I don't understand all the archer hate from this poo poo rear end community. It's not easy being good with one so they actively punish the people who are because "zomg someone who can aim killed me, can't have that.".

Skoll posted:Their patch notes still suck... Being one shot killed at the beginning of the round from someone you can't see because the map design is really bad is pretty discouraging especially in the round where you only get one spawn. Or an archer instant pulls his axe because he heard you come up on him, does the overly fast 180 swing on you for half health and then follows up with the second swing that kills you or runs away and kites you. I don't think it's not understandable at all, but the kiting thing was a huge issue in crpg. In this day and age if you can exploit something, it will be exploited. IE the JackBaldy saga.

That never bothered me and I got headshot plenty. The only thing I found annoying was the slow down chasing them. I think people are just whiney little cunts because "zomg archers are second class citizens and shouldnt be able to kill anyone ever.".

The new patch has bad performance issues. And apparently a new memory leak in Epic. They aren't very good at using smart pointers it seems. They should table Epic for now and focus on some of the deeper problems, like wonky hitboxes/netcode, degrading framerates, and other things that make combat frustrating.

Looks like you can't solo cap a server anymore. You'll get the end of battle 1500 xp but none of the round xp.

Well to be fair, when they made that adjustment they started giving you 100 per round even if you lost. They also shortened cap time which makes conquest much more competitive.

Isn't the real issue with the grind that many of the low tier poo poo is better than the high tier poo poo?

The armor is essentially linear, but yea the weapon trees are a mess. Some are like 7 items deep in the 1h category and all the two hand and pole arms are like 4 items deep at most. The progression is all kids of random, so sometimes better are weapons are gated behind worse weapons but its often backwards as well. They don't seem to have a vision for what each weapon should be, its almost like they made models for no reason.

It gives 100 XP for winning a round. There is no end-of-game bonus like in Conquest.
