I blame chadz for developing the netcode of a mod in a game he has no involvement in whatsoever since day one tbh...

Damn you, chadz, for screwing up Warband's netcode this much *shakes fist in anger at the screen*
And you too, cmp, damn youuu... *shakes fist furiously at screen now*

Was about to say that :D

Warband's netcode is pretty damn sweet if you ask me. I think you need to play Chivalry for a change to see the lag unfold at 32+ players.

That game sucks, but I bet that with UE4 being free to use, there will be many medieval games in the making.

I suggest you take a look at Planetside 2's way of dealing with 2000 players on one map at the same time. They pretty much only load the players who are in your area.
Territory-control and capturing territories is also something interesting in PS2, have a look at it.
Lastly, something I think the devs of PS2 have incorporated very well in their game is to make specific parts of the map more wanted at random times, PS2 does this by giving you more resources if you capture a specific part of the map at a random time, this concentrates the battles more and makes for more enjoyment.

Could you specify more on perma-death? I hate losing my progress and I usually GTX if the consequences are high.

Will you be able to end feuds with players through duels either to first blood or if you so wish to death with out getting any penalties for killing? Would be quite sweet to kill your rivals in an honourable way :twisted:
Also will you be able to kidnap people and demand ransoms and so on?

Will there be boats and sail able seas/lakes/rivers?

Will wildlife and hunting? The king demands some entertaining boar hunting!

Would very much appreciate an in depth hunting system where you can manually break down the various parts of the animal for use.  There should be a risk of ruining the pelt, meat, bones etc if you screw up.

Also, hunting parties.  Would be hilarious watching people get torn to pieces by bears, wolves, wild boar etc

I honestly do not hope that the devs wil use many (if any) resources on a hunting system.
From what I understand the game is supose to be a war/diplomatics/fightning game and not a LiF type survival game.

I agree. LiF is way too grindy / detailed with regards to its in-game actions. From what I can tell from what's described in this forum, the new Melee sounds like a LESS grindy version of LiF - which I quite like the sound of.

Will you be able to hire "serfs/bots" to do the grinding for you?

Family npcs are supposed to do the grind for you - more or less, I guess.
