Another Kickstarter! Chivalry: Medieval Warfare

PatrickL

Hey Polycount,

A few of us here have been working on Chivalry: Medieval Warfare for the past two years, and we're finally gearing up for release! Torn Banner Studios is a global team of 14, and this is our very first title together. We just launched our Kickstarter, so I'd love to hear what the Polycount community thinks!

Hey looks pretty sweet, the character art looks awesome too.

Wahlgren

I like them visuals man!

guhhh

GREAT!!! I was wondering when a new fps without guns will appear!! I'm a backer for sure! If you share here the models and a little bit of the workflow will enhance the chance to get the that you wish. Congrats to the entire team. :thumbup:

Woot! Looks awesome!

Avanthera

Looks awesome! The combat looks sweet, but I just wanted to drop this here (not to take anything away from what you have, it's just the best melee combat I've experienced)

If you've played this mod, it has combat awesomeness down like a clown, maybe it could give some ideas/help tweak.

I've backed and I'll be looking forward to my copy!

Edit: I just looked back at some vids from mid-april and the artists on the team have really pumped up the looks since then! It went from older-tech, mod looking stuff to kick ass! keep it up!

FullSynch

Wow it's like that War of the Roses game but more visceral and significantly less cumbersome. It has a very cinematic feel to it too. Can't wait to play.

Alismuffin

It's like adding the warzones mod(Creates a battlefield with many, many fighters split into at least two teams) to skyrim but with better combat
Perfect!

MainManiac

I love that in pvp the attackers burn buildings and kill peasants like a real scenario, it isnt just TDM

TrevorJ

Hey, thats great it looks like your going to get your funding! all the best to you guys, its come a long way since I last saw it.

PatrickL

Hey guys, thanks for the kind words and backing us! We've past halfway now and are slowly closing in. There was an update posted just recently covering some of the questions people had with the kickstarter.

Thanks again! We're all really excited to see word of our game spreading.

Renaud Galand

New screenshots on their facebook page.

Looks pretty good

We've reached our goal!

Lucas Annunziata

A big thank you and virtual high-five to everyone who has backed this project thus far. Just 54 hours left to donate. Not only is it cheaper for you, but more of your dollars go directly to the developers!

Brygelsmack

Looks awesome. Are you guys releasing no matter how the kickstarter goes? Want to play this. ^^

Edit: Oh lol, missed that post. Grats on making it!

Renaud Galand

Btw, it's out! (And it's awesome, I'm really having a blast).

oh sick!
hows the player base so far? lots of servers?

ae.

its a top seller on steam right now, just played it pretty fun! if skyrim was online i would think it would play like this game a little :P

aajohnny

I need my paycheck now lol.

guhhh

That's bad at all! The guys that helped to fund this game just pay the same $25 for the game now....

guhhh

and by the way, this game is looking pretty great!

Rayph

This game is amazing. Smashing a motherfuckers skull to bits with a mace has never felt so right. Fantastic job to the team.

reverendK

aaaalll over it

Ark

Been playing this for the last couple of days, it's great non-stop fun. Still could do with a bit of polish and tweaks, but the game is just pure great fun when it comes down to it.

The team-objective mode is what i've enjoyed the most, but straight up deathmatch is also good.

MainManiac

Made a video of how fun the combat is for a few friends who asked

Been actively playing Chivalry, you guys have done a great job. I'm also a former M&B Warband (Though I never played AOC) player so it was a nice to see a new take on the mechanics and gameplay. I find it very enjoyable. Also, great job with the environments, artists.

I've been playing a few hours every day since I bought it, and have been loving it. Having a handful of buddies in a skype call coordinating stuff is super fun. The game is a little rough around the edges though, and I've been incapacitated by laughter from some ridiculous things that have happened, mostly team kills, accidental or not.
I really do wish there was a little more player customization though. I hope those mod tools come soon so I can put some stuff in!

MainManiac

yea the biggest thing its lacking is customizing.

Also bummed that the mason knights don't wear full plate

xvampire

damn thats looks fun

Bek

Really keen on grabbing this, I'm a huge M&B Warband player (multiplayer) and one thing that disappointed me about that game was the crappy first person camera, it was pretty much unusable. Out of curiosity can FOV be adjusted or is it static? From the videos I've seen so far it looks leagues ahead of M&B's first person camera anyway.

Yes it goes up to 120 fov lol

HOLY PISS THIS LOOKS AWESOME
Going to look on steam for it now. Screw sleep, I don't like my job anyway. This is research.

MainManiac

Come to think of it, I wish Skyrim's melee felt like Chivalry... The game would be way more fun and less floaty

Kip McSkipster

Happy to hear there's some interest in Chivalry! I worked on it a while back, did a few of the assets (including the Agathian Man at Arms), you can see the stuff in my portfolio: http://www.ezracove.com/portfolio/game-art/

pear

Gotta love those warcrys!

skylebones

Love all these wacky videos. Almost as much fun as the game, which is awesome.

PatrickL

Glad to hear you guys are enjoying the game! Lots of awesome updates are coming in the future, so it will only get better.

EtotheRic

haha, this game is fun and funny! Ever play Rune? There were some pretty cool mods like meatshields and flying mounts.

chrisradsby

I've been playing this awhile now with my friends, I really like it. On the art-side I'd say that it looks beautiful when looking at the whole thing, I do notice lots of the wonkiness when you get down to the details though.

The game is a little bit sticky as well at times, but I've been having soooo much fun with it so far.
