I got a alpha key by mail.

X2068-WCHTX-MBNGV

If anyone wants it just activate it on steam.

Should have done the same. Still the curiosity and hope that the game would be better dragged me to it. Still has unblockable freehits and archery is supereasy if not even easier now then before imo. So easy its even boring. There really is no way to progress with this class. Also this dodge, it really proves that these guys will never produce a proper medieval melee game. This new dodgemechanic basically destroys the "fighting based on skill" the devs where going for. Cause when you spam dodge, you dont have to use directional block.

Stick to Warband lads. Vikings is even worse then the last one. Atleast as far as im concerned.

Guess I am a bit too much of a hopeful optimist.  :P

You guys probably have the right of it. Based off how much progress wotr made (not much) I doubt wotv's potential will matter, it has the potential to be an alright game, but fatshark will likely fuck it up.


After the first day playing it I honestly quickly lost interest and have not played it since. It did however make me return to cRPG, as I haven't played in quite a while.




So..

I actually like it, at least for now. I know I will play it for a bit, judge me if you will.

Wasn't entirely true.

Curiosity got the better of me so I downloaded it knowing it would be bad and.... I swear I've lost brain cells. Its just, swing, dodge back rinse and repeat, the only people who actually block are the people with shields.  :mad: Honestly I don't understand how some people play this like we do warband... Its just spam spam spam, at-least native duelers block incoming swings, people on WotV don't.

Its so depressing that devs are allowed to produce pieces of shit like this.  :|

Another WoTR clone? Who's played this? And if you have, what are your thoughts?

Played the Beta/Alpha, I personally was really enjoying it, I'll definitely buy when its on  sale. The combat just seems smoother and faster than wotr. Better graphics, Vikings vs Saxons which is great, some really nice maps and there is now near full customisation.

I played Alpha for some hours, it was the same as WotR. Can't say about after release, but its probably still the same as the same applied for WotR.

Oh Christo! They will still need so much time to develop Gloria Victis, played Pre Alphas, they are doing good but it takes hell of a time. They still have their way to create a great game. :)

played it , returned to crpg semi-instantly , the only good thing for me is the archer gameplay , yes they smoothed the clunky wotr gameplay but still clunky for me :).
stamina is a good thing and you need a sort of managment of that. player skill is not very involved in melee , shields are overspammed by polearms with the fact that the shield is invulnerable.
throwing is very satisfieing , better than crpg must admit.
polearm is the ultimate weapon of destruction , just keep the attack loaded and bam you delete everything.
directional block : at least they tried to smooth it but crpg is better.
rounds are quick , arcadeish and you can't die and roll a cigarette cause it's very fast paced in term of map/round , not combat speed.

maybe it's my impressions but i prefer warband/crpg all the way , maybe kingdom core deliverance will bring us an alternative way to fight with medieval weapons but it's singleplayer sadly and we must wait chudz to finish his game so we can qq again happily on the forumz.

yes , the customization is very good but models are the same , you pay gold to buy the same model with some retexturing , anyway shield customization is awesome.
