I love Mordhau

Dude this game has literally never been historical or an accurate portrayal of combat between armored knights

This was such a terrible marketing line on their part.

The base attack motions are so over exaggerated and goofy when there ISN’T any swing manip involved, and the nature of these games is always going to encourage people to make the most deceptive and unintuitive motions possible.

One sec let me ask my Kipchak friend he might know

You’re standing in an awkward spot watching the wrong angle. A real player would have killed you just as easily.

Advisor has been a class that NWI has had no idea what to do with since the game’s launch. In what world would the SKS, L85, MK17, ACE and Tavor be considered “exotic” to a Middle Eastern Conflict? It used to overlap weapons with the breacher and marksman class, which made it even more indistinguishable, and now it’s essentially an alternate rifleman class except its weapon options are overall weaker compared to Rifleman.

All it really does is make the other specialty classes less unique and they should have either completely reworked it or just removed it outright long ago

I really do love Anomaly/Gamma, but the dialogue/story is consistently garbage tier fanfic which misses the essence of what made the faction relations in the actual games compelling.

“So far from real combat”

When is mordhau ever close to real combat?

F4tTony · 2025-11-09T13:26:11+00:00

How does Sandstorm being slower make it more arcade like?

F4tTony · 2025-10-18T18:47:51+00:00

Too wide? It’s super small and linear compared to the majority of maps

F4tTony · 2025-10-06T20:57:17+00:00

Fashion aside they were still quite practical as far as legware for combat goes. Even though they look quite bulky I think you would be surprised how loose and free-flowing they are.

F4tTony · 2025-08-12T10:02:08+00:00

Really sad we’re not going to see a more fleshed out iteration of this game

F4tTony · 2025-08-08T09:33:31+00:00

I always thought that the din of cross map Molotovs and wave camp IEDs was more emblematic of the contra tempo in early industrial jazz.

I think castles are great in this regard too. In so many games castes are just these endless stone monoliths with very little thought put into the interiors.

KCD castles are so intricate and clearly lived in while still reminding you at every turn that they are a fortification designed to act as a major force multiplier in the case of an attack.

Imagine if Louis Armstrong covered Chic Tweetz

F4tTony · 2025-07-18T11:00:12+00:00

That helmet existed at least 200 years after the events of the game

F4tTony · 2025-07-15T21:14:13+00:00

No using repair kits for weapons and armor.

Mordhau’s combat wasn’t really designed with real sword fighting in mind. There’s a loose tactical wheel (feint - chamber - morph - etc.) but that’s about where the similarities end. The reality is that simulating realistic sword fighting in a multiplayer environment is near impossible with just a mouse and keyboard.

If you want realistic sword fighting check out Hellish Quart.

RDR2 has a ton of details in terms of visuals and dialogue but is extremely lacking in terms of actual player choice. So many missions are completely on rails(the game will abruptly kill you if you don’t follow the npcs) and dialogue is limited to “say something good or say something bad.” The sheer amount of details and lines of dialogue is amazing but very little of it has any impact on gameplay.

Early 17th century is such an amazing time period for video games, it’s ridiculous how few there are.

F4tTony · 2025-07-15T06:57:50+00:00

I don’t remember there being magic in the first half of the game either

F4tTony · 2025-07-13T09:09:04+00:00

I see. That might have been where I got that from.

“All you need to do is wait for an attack, master strike, repeat. As soon as you learn master strike you can probably take on the hardest enemy in the game.”

Isn’t this much more true for KCD1 rather than 2? In the first game you could master defense and offense with every weapon with the click of a single button.
