Mordhau Mornings 05/23/19

Awesome I loved the mordhau quick look so anymore is good thank you. I bought this after the quick look but been playing rage 2 and haven't gone back. Shame about the hacking.

Man that fov and all those hit lines makes me nauseous.

Just going to say this because it will drive me crazy.

"This is so dumb, the alternate [of the Zwaihander] is he just grips the blade."

Ben, that was 100% a real thing that was done.

With how serious they take everything I knew that it was a real thing. Doesn't make it not stupid.

@benpack: It's not so stupid if you are trying to kill the man in front of you, not your friend next to you!

best solution for boundaries in games is to shoot you like a cannon back to the intended play area like in motocross madness

recurve bow is my jam

have at them boys

@benpack Fun fact: when using the Longsword there's an emote to unscrew the pommel and immediately throw it. It doesn't do much damage, but it's a nice insult.

Can I get Jan saying "I believe in you" as a button at the top of the screen? Thanks

@icedmetal57: lmao

What is the deal with people and this game...? Multiplayer clunky Skyrim combat has that much appeal? Aren't there already a million games like this? Why should this get its own video specials and suck up resources?

@bloody_skirmish: Well, I mean, in case you were actually looking for a real answer - its the successor to Chivalry and Chivalry was incredibly popular.

It also has a great deal of depth and a long-dedicated competitive scene.

Also, as a side-note, Ben should learn how to feint-to-parry. It makes you essentially whiff-punish proof, although it eats a ton of stamina. Hands down, one of the most important skills that most newbies don't know.

Lol, this isn't anything like Skyrim combat.

All the hectic MP action aside, it seems that they got some of the hand to hand combat finesse down. And depth in terms of options, skill curve and so on.
I like that, it's just the hectic MP only(?) that is not as appealing for me (these days), would prefer something more similar to Mount & Blade, doesn't have to be as deep in the RPG parts.

This was great, thanks Ben and Jan!!

I'm loving the game, frontlines mode can get a bit annoying as most of the maps are balanced poorly, Red wins 99% of the time on Taiga for example.

I highly recommend the duel servers to people, great way to test your skills and learn mechanics.
