It just seems like they are trying to cash-in on a M&B clone during this current period where Warband is fairly aged and before M&B2 comes out.

Doesn't look like they offer much besides shiny new (overdone) graphics and maybe some glitchy M&B physics smoothed over. Don't see any original gamemodes, or any kind of multiplayer campaign...

pre-alpha is their way of saying "we are in beta but don't know if people like our game yet." this is what battlefield 3 did, they called their beta pre-alpha and it didn't change on release

Not in this case. Beta is typically where you have software testing outside of the development team where the features are complete. You can see that they still have development to do and several features have yet to be implemented, even if they invited a group of folks to take a look at where the game development is right now.

The important part here for everyone in the community who enjoys this unique style of game is that enough interest and $$$ is made across all of these titles that larger studios take notice and 2-3 years from now, the television will be filled with Medieval combat advertisements and not Battlefield or Call of Duty XXIII. I would truly like to see where the genre can be taken when someone has a $Billion dollar budget to devote to making an engine and content built around this concept. For that idea alone, I'll be a supportive voice in the community.

I'll tell you where it can be taken, you'll get a new M&B game every 3 months(costs 50 euros each time and will only include a couple minor additions and will split the community), if you kill two people in one round you can call in a helicopteran NPC cavalry charge, you'll get perks that let you throw an unblockable sword at a random direction when you die, you'll get dumbed down combat mechanics that take 5 minutes to master (can't have the skill ceiling be too high or anything be too hard to master because the masses wouldn't dig that)... oh yea, and 15 euro map DLCs... released ahead of time for elite subscribers.

Yes, I'm still bitter that Activision took the best FPS ever made, CoD1, and turned it to shit very quickly because of moneygrabbing. I'd rather not see it happen to a franchise like M&B.

excited, sure, the melee looks pretty subpar but there's tons of customization, it looks good, and there's lots of time for them to fix the melee, though i'm not exactly confident they'll actually do so

honestly i'll probably buy it no matter how shitty it is on release just to support a medieval combat game

You are SOOO wrong. CoD 2 was the best FPS ever made, then it went downhill.  :P

The COD games after the first Modern Warfare were all shit, when I played MW3, i legit thought that i bought a MW2 DLC map pack for $60.

CoD 2 was alright but they already started the dumbing down. Automatics lost practically all recoil etc... still, fun game.

Stop replying to this. This should be shut down.

Don't you see the mount and blade developers are copying everything from crpg. Don't give them more to steal. Dt hey probably look at these forums all day figuring out what to do next
