Hello there you guys remember the mod WfaS?
New version 8-)
http://thedeluge.net/en/
EDIT: Well for me it is. It's realistic and I really like the time where this is happened.
EDIT 2: Sry guys, I posted the old page.

Is is indeed one of the best mod out there if not the best, really fun to play, beautiful and some nice gameplay feature that you won't see in any other mod. Yesterday I tried a new tactic: as a tatar enginer, pick horse and grenade, when the round start rush the enemy spawn, throw your nades, enjoy the 10 kills 8-)

Yeah I like it too. Not perfect but intriguing, still need a good deal of balancing/tweaking though.
Surprised at how well it runs (full fps), given the moving trees, flags and what not animations.
-
Been playing it a lot for the past 2 days. Very good fun and very smooth considering all the added effects :)
-
This looks great, I'm gonna try it.

A cheap copy of Fire & Sword ?

On the contrary, WFaS is a costy copy of The Deluge.

Ah no, this is a lot better. :)
-
Agreed.
With fire and sword is appalling in comparison to this. At least multiplayer wise.

So first came ''With fire and Sword'' the mod from the same ''Producer'' as ''The Deluge'' and then the game...
so the mod isn't the copy but the game is.
I think they tried it to make it better than the mod... But they rly didn't suceeded.

You see that often, just like Counterstrike which started as a mod or Battlefield2 with Dice, they started as the people behind the BF1942mod Desert Combat.

Love this mod, especially liking all the small details that I keep finding.
Few examples:
- Stabbed a charging horse with a pike, hit was so hard the pike slipped off my hand.
- Threw a javelin to a mounted guy in full speed. Again, the hit was so hard that the guy flew off his horse while the horse kept galloping. Both were alive of course.
- Grenade going off near you knocks you down and blurs the screen black for a while. Thought it was a bug but it's actually very neat addition.
- Prolonged rounds get markers where the remaining enemies are.
It's also visually very pleasing. Lightning flash revealing 10 enemies just in front of you in deep black night is just something.

No, Deluge (WFaS) was suppose to be SP mode but unfortunatly guys that started working on this project few years ago (!) had no time to continue it, so Tul decided that he will work only on MP with help from other Polish modders, mostly Daedalus. I remember funny situations that happenes almost a year ago when one of Polish portals used some materials (screenshots etc.) from Deluge to advertise Fire & Sword :lol: of course they had no clue about that untill someone noticed it :lol:

BumP zis!

Looks like fun, I'll be damned if I'm buying WFaS just for this mod though. WFaS was a failure and I don't want to support fail games.
Seriously, you released Warband, and then you release another game (WFaS), but you base it off the original M&B, not warband? FAIL FAIL FAIL FAIL FAIL.

IIRC Wfas was releach BEFORE warband in some country...
but I need to check
and any way : deluge is a warband mod :P

I don't think so. I think they were working on WFaS before Warband was released, so obviously they were basing it off of the original M&B. But once we get spoiled with Warband and the improvements over the original M&B, then why would they think we'd want to play a game based on the original...
My bro bought it right away because he loves M&B, and Warband. As soon as he told me couching lances is stuck in one fixed position like the first M&B that told me everything I needed to know about the game.

WfaS was basically a pay mod for very local area, I think Poland cuz it's about a polish war in 17th century or something, where taleworlds licensed the game out to local devs to create the content, and yes it was originally arranged before Warband. I think it was successful enough there that they basically decided to translate it to English and release it for rest of world as a quick cash grab (Paradox and Steam both hyped it as a new xpac when in reality it was inferior to Warband). It was a cheap move that might have burned some people (never bought it), I hope at least Taleworlds made some decent cash out of it.

there is nothing epic about the location or time setting of this mod. just a crappy russian version knock off of Mount n Muskett (which wasnt very good anyways)
