After some additional testing I can't see any reason not to go Polearm instead of Two-Handed.
Polearm is vastly superior in every way now, better range resulting in the first attack, faster strikes, better damage, better thrust, weapon stun and hit stun, shieldbreaking, a large variety of items designed for different things such as lances for cavalry, pikes for anti-cav, etc.
I can't see or haven't found any advantage of taking two-handed instead, it's simply inferior. The Great Swords among other recieved a huge nerf, even some 1-handed weapons have more thrust damage now, is this intended?
The two-handed thrust is completely screwed up, slower then a polearm thrust and glancing blows is a common thing. It's so slow that after my opponent has attacked me and I try to thrust him I'll miss it cause he can simply spam me.
Not to mention how stuttering and laggy the thrust looks, don't you have some form of quality check before you introducing things like that?
A post containing only complaints without constructive criticism is bad and retarded so here goes: Smooth out the animation and get rid of the stuttering laggy look, speed it up to the equivelent polearm thrust animation or simply revert back to the pre-patch one. Buffing thrust damage will not work here since the thrust is pretty much unuseable as it is.
However, if this is what you want, fine, but atleast give us a heirloom reset so we can go polearm spamming like the rest.
