Bannerlord & Esport

[Sniger]

when you are 12 you play on a football team with your friends, all for the lols

then you become better at it and you want more.

you get older and you join a pro football club.

still for the lols... and yet... it isnt

you dont join the club to get viewers. you dont join a pro club to become famous and harvest epeen.

you joined the pro club cus you wanted more.

Well i would personally love, if this game got into the e-sports scene, but i dont think that surprises anyone.

Im not the biggest fan of the big blob fights, since well.... skill does not rly matter. Have a polearm or try ur luck, and throw a few swings in there.

Just because you are bad at it doesn't mean it takes no skill.

Bannerlord looks like Mount&Blade v1.2 (v1.0 being original, Warband v1.1). Seems to me they don't have desire to radically improve the concept of the game. Not looking forward to it at all.

well this game is based on battles which are typically blob vs blob. now as im not a super nerd i dont sit around watching other people play computer games because id rather look at a wall or something so to those of us who have no interest in e sports and don't know how it can even use the word sport when your sitting on your ass please explain to me what you would want bannerlord/MGB to be as an esport but without blob vs blob? Incoherent ramble over

I'm ok with that much improvement at a time. Better slowly take its ultimate shape than get hastily messed up with hopes of making a superior dash.

Oh yes, a big blob of melee trying to stab another big blob of melee. There is so many possibilities of making big plays, while being in the blob xD. Ty for the insult btw, that was really needed  .

Am I the only one whose expectations (and thereby care invested) in Bonerlord are low?

There most likely won't be a cRPG for Bonerlord, which in my opinion is the only mod worth investing in at the moment. I'm not ruling out the possibility of some awesome mod arriving for Bonerlord, but for that to be true it would have to have some form of persistency and customization options, as well as good balance, respectable devs who interact with the players, good design etc etc. you get the picture. It's gonna have to rival the mod that we love to hate to love.

I realise cRPG is fairly niched compared to Native and the amount of grind coupled with a fairly steep learning curve scares off most of the new players (all cRPG rejects end up shooting heroine and snorting coke in Mercenaries, the retarded step brother or cRPG). But that's just the average idiot gamer unable to overcome their fear of having to put effort into a game where they can't call in gunships when they get 2 kills in a row. In cRPG, kill streaks are rewarded with a raging boner.

Anyway, M:BG gonna wipe the floor with that half-assed plastic surgical improvement of Warband.

Why would i even answer you, when this is your attitude towards it? You start off with calling me a super nerd, since i like e-sports, and then you say that you would rather watch a wall, than watching others play.

So talking to you about this, would be like talking to a wall, since you clearly dont care about it.

Make MOBA-esque tower defense gamemode, bam.

Instant fanbase that follows it as e-sport

It looks like MOBA is the new zombie survival of gaming.

"Nerd" is such a retarded insult, not even worth paying attention.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nerd
A nerd (adjective: nerdy) is a person, typically described as being overly intellectual, obsessive, or socially impaired. They may spend inordinate amounts of time on unpopular, obscure, or non-mainstream activities, which are generally either highly technical or relating to topics of fiction or fantasy, to the exclusion of more mainstream activities.[1][2][3] Additionally, many nerds are described as being shy, quirky, and unattractive,[4] and may have difficulty participating in, or even following, sports. "Nerd" is a derogatory, stereotypical term, but as with other pejoratives, it has been reclaimed and redefined by some as a term of pride and group identity.

depends if you find the word nerd to be insulting which it really isnt ^^ i would consider esports to be super nerdy ^^ rather than just nerdy Im not a nerd tho im not smart enough


TLDR I dont consider nerd an insult i just used it to try to make gtx rage 

[Bjord]

Someone is socially impaired because they like E-sports? Fuck off? And no, you can't just say "ur a nerd" because they like E-sports and then play it off with saying "nerd has different meanings".

Nerd is the insult by people who are unable to relate to someone else's interests, or someone who is threatened by someone's intelligence.

So if you don't consider it an insult, why'd you use it as one?

[Osiris]

seems i caught a bjord instead  E-sports are pretty ghey tho almost as ghey as Metal music still how would you turn blob vs blob into something exciting to watch?

[Bjord]

Saying something retarded and then being questioned about it is not the same as trolling.
