Did they manage to get the combat right, or...?

1. Drags, accels or any other form of turncap/sensivity manipulation?
2. Bodyfeints, spinning, or any other form of immersion-breaking moves?
3. Clipping, kiting or any other form of false-attack spams?

Got tired of that ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ in Mordhau. Hell. even Bannerlord devs decided, that little to no turncap is a good idea... Every single melee combat game turns into nolifer ecochamber with unreasonable and unintuitive skillgap and then looses mass players in a year or two.

Don't want to spend time to a dead-end concept for the fourth time....

you can move your sword around after initiating an attack, sry to be the bearer of bad news

Ballerinas are still a thing sadly, not as bad as chivalry 1 though.

thats what I want to know, I played Chivalry 1 and it was just a plethora of people spinning and breaking hitboxes and getting hit when no weapons are near you.

I pray its not the same in this game as that would kill my desire to buy it.

You are still gonna get the losers that play 16 hours a day nonstop, in every match you will be killed by them, and when you check the scores, there they are at 67-1 at the top of the scoreboard. Nothing you can do about that.

I think every multiplayer game has those type of try hard no life players that focus too much they can't possibly have fun.

Yeah the homeless gamer vets are everywhere. They work a desk job more likely a call center then come home and ♥♥♥♥ on themselves for 16 hrs online.

It is definitely better than Chiv1 in that regard. Unfortunately it's also a step back in the alt-attacks, no more polearm underhand swing AFAIK, but the addition of specials for each class/weapon(even if subclasses kind of limit the selection for some weapons quite a bit) almost makes up for it, and everyone gets powerful sprint attacks now instead of just the chiv1 Vanguard.

Dragging with swords is normal. And in real life can actually be a helpful skill when swinging heavy blades. People who still complain about this feat , idek. Every game with swordplay in this style that I’ve played where you can control the direction and angle of the swing so directly has this. Sure you can say it’s a broken feat, but it’s not unrealistic. It might not be as prevalent in chiv 2 but it’s not like it’s something that isn’t possible. There are more annoying things to be crying about like one hit mauls and never ending stamina.

Mordhau still has the best combat mechanics of any game once you understand them and dump 1000+ hours into getting halfway decent.

Chiv 2 is a very dumbed down version of it previous self with added gimmicks and a few whistles and bells added for good measure. It is prettier and the maps are better than Mordhau but that is honestly about it.

This game is far too noob friendly to play it seriously at any level but you will find some sweaty players.

The funniest thing is that TBS claimed the wanted to get rid of the spin-2-win mechanic and they literally added a special to the Nooblander sword that does exactly that. There is also an issue with crouching spin-2-win meta as well as you can still pull off a reverse overhead but no where near like Chiv 1.

Archers are still OP and not balanced so their solution is to limit them per match. There are plenty of other glaring issues if you played comp at any level but just turn your brain off and mash the LMB after holding parry and you are a superstar.

is it really that bad?

[Geronimo426]

No the combat is great in this game. I have a ton of hours in mordhau and that combat is some animation exploit filled garbage. Not to mention things like shields were nerfed into oblivion to appease a bunch of cry babies that got mad that shields were a counter to the animation exploits (that still exist to this day in game). I have a blast every time i play Chiv 2. Its fantastic. Mord fan boys are upset that chiv just killed what was left of their post mordem trash game.

[Victory Toker..]

new to the game entirely.. the movement is potato, cant run ( really) cant properly dodge cause yu have a 30 second wait after doing it once... even in very light armour.. im entrigued by the idea and still trying to like the game... . i dont really though Tbh... the movement mechanics are so bad it makes me quit and play something else pretty fast in general. this is my opinion, others will surely jump up and say "ohh you just yada yada yada"... no, The movement is brutal, youre not convincing me its not, it IS brutal..
