Massive Content Update Arrives!



You stand alone in middle of a frigid and blood-soaked battlefield, riddled with corpses so thick that the snow itself is painted red. In your hand lies a Flail, a weapon made for only one purpose. The destruction of all those who oppose you. As a veteran of battle you know the landscapes and arsenal well, but now you must conquer new regions and master unique weapons and tactics. For any man can kill another in the chaos of battle, but the glory of victory in single combat is unmatched. Will yours be a name remembered for all time? Or will you die, bested by another who has mastered the sword. This is Medieval Warfare, and this is a massive update:

13 New Maps
- Citadel
- Frigid
- Argon's Wall
- And 10 new duel arenas
5 New Weapons
- Sling
- Quarterstaff
- Polehammer
- Flail
- Heavy Flail
2 New Game Modes
- Duel Mode (For intense 1v1 Action)
- Capture the Flag

Looks like they heavily nerfed ranged, made the norsesword slashing more powerful, but stabbing weaker.
Feinting also got slowed down and missing with a 2h reduces twice the stamina than if you would hit.

CrazyCracka420:
I really liked the game, my only issue is that you always swing from the right side first when doing a side swing (that's a big issue for me) and there's not enough maps right now.  I'm gonna jump in again this weekend and play around some, been jonesing for some Chiv and this update looks like a good improvement.

--- End quote ---

They fixed a really annoying common bug, where it looks like the guy is doing a left swing, but ends up right-swinging. Died so much because of that.

Patoson:
It sounds like a great list of fixes, but I'm still waiting for them to fix stabbing at point blank range (no bouncing) - that's so lame!

v/onMega:
Its a start, no?

Hope they polish the game to the extend that one can simply enjoy it.
