Chivalry 3 should have execution animation

[Froz7y]

It would be so sick.

Depends on how they'd work. Would you regain health if the animation finishes? Will teammates be instantly revived if you interrupt an execution?

well lets just say after you do it they cant be revived so good concept

I mean, in games that have execution animations, performing them while your health is too low leaves you vulnerable, and dying in the middle of performing an execution usually revives the person who's about to be executed.

Something like that was implemented in War of the Roses. Alas, that game is completely dead and can't be played again. There was an animation of cutting someone's neck by a shield, for example.

Need a decent combat system first. These clueless TO players are not helpful in trying to get ACTUAL ideas to the devs.

Use highland sword and deflect them till they bend over for you to guillotine them

Most people queue up in this game

[Juvens]

Just do it like in For Honor, if you finish someone with a heavy you can choose one of 4 executions you've equipped. (Q/E or holding of either)

[Cheepeers]

I don't think it is a good idea. You will probably need some seconds for animation, but what if someone want to kill you? You can't cover yourself and other players can't kill you? Even 1 second animation can be a problem in big fights like 32vs32

Dear god please don't add execution animations to my medieval combat simulator

Sounds lame. Wouldn't buy chiv 3 after this company's constant flops and issues anyways. Regret even buying this one. They churn out abandonware and 3 won't be any different.

Depending on how it's done, I could see executions adding a risk/reward factor. To balance things out, here's how i think an execution could work:
- Players performing an execution take 30% less damage from most sources (bows and crossbows only have a 15% damage penalty)
- Immune to friendly fire
- Instantly heal 75% of all damage you received during the execution animation, and heal an additional 25% of your max health over time.
- If you take fatal damage during an execution, you are instantly killed regardless of your negative health value, and the player you're executing will instantly be revived

I was very fond of that game and remember how cool being executed in first person was. Also thinking about spam opening/closing the visor always makes me chuckle. I'm happy to report the game is playable multiplayer with a bit of coordination to find a group; https://steamcommunity.com/app/42160/discussions/0/4300446114902356183/
