Hopes are officially up.

Could be good, but where are the blocks ?

It's like WotR meets Everquest.

I remember this project having had some negative publicity, but can't remember what exactly it was. I could be wrong ofc.

Actually if an MMO had WoTR combat it would be pretty sweetsauce. Cause you got also other stuff keeping you distracted aswell. Its bullshit when its in arcade and combat being the only thing you do.

I seriuslly hope that the shields in this game will be extremely effective. Cause otherwise its gonna be a massive rangedspam all the way.

Roma Victor has tried that before and it has failed.

[Miwiw]

This looks fine but concering MMOs, my only hope currently is The Elder Scrolls Online, THOUGH it has magic.

Otherwise I'm only playing LotRO now and then cause I like it...

[Bulzur]

I like the mob with a shield that... doesn't use it ?

I don't have that much hope for that project. Also feel like the camera is too far from the character played, but maybe that's just me.
And yeah, it's more Directional Attack than Directional Combat. No blocking, your armor sucks up some damage. Footwork is the key, it seems.

actually a couple mmos have it already but poorly implemented; xyson, mortal online(lag!).

also life is feudal (LiF) will have it http://lifeisfeudal.com/mmorpgsandLiF/Life-is-Feudal-the-action-MMO-RPG-No-target-combat-and-double-bars

i'm keeping an eye on gloria victis but LiF im way more excited about personally, since its more a absolute sandbox like h&h and with terraforming. whereas gloria victis is seems to have your usual mmo tropes, PvE, quests, pre determined factions/lore etc.

but plenty are trying to make mmo with realistic combat like m&b but most of them are tiny budget teams, seems alot easier said than done. might be years untill we see combat as smooth as warband
