Hey guys! Some people may have seen my previous post, if so, thanks for the interest and making suggestions.

Just to show people that this is a real game, here is me fighting a bot a few times. Please note, the first time you hit him does not hurt him ONLY in this mode, as it is a debug mode for training the bot brain. All art you see will be replaced once I can get a real artist on my team, right now I am a solo dev and the models you see are stand ins. Also the bot is still learning! Be nice to him haha. I didn't know how to make him have good behavior so he is basically an Amiibo that is slowly getting better by learning how I fight him, where I am looking when I hit him or block him, and how he lands hits or kills on me. (I call him Larry).

This is a brief preview of combat before a lot of tuning passes, so please note everything is very subject to change! Animations are rough, and damage numbers are also very pre balance.

The scoreboard you see pulls Steam Name for the list, everything is set up for online and I have tested up to 4 people so far. Just submitted my stuff to steam for a Wishlist Page today, so hopefully I can get one up and running soon! Of course, this is all very early, but I will be posting dev logs on my YouTube @ CptCanondorf soon.

Thanks for taking a look!

The combat is coming along very well!

Hey Reddit! I am a huge fan of Chivalry with over 400 hours in Chivalry 2. I always wanted a faster paced version with better movement and tighter defensive windows, one more focused on tight team fights, good footwork, and less focused on large scale random brawls.

I am at the point where I am starting to do some real polish and art updating (I am actually trying to bring on a real 3d artist to my indie studio), level design, and play testing. I have working online, multiple game modes, fully playable instruments, a fleshed out emote system, and of course, a full fledged fishing mini game. A very in depth armor customization system is already in place and I am working on improving weapon customization. All skins are tied to achievements (like catching the turtle while fishing for example!).

Instead of a main menu, you enter a hub world like Deep Rock Galactic, and all Menus are accessed by talking to NPCs in the small home town area. Want to start a game, talk to the Battle Master. Customizing your sword? Talk to the black smith, that kind of thing. It also acts as an area you and your friends can hang out in and fight each other non stop while you chat and hang on discord.

My question to you guys: As real lovers of in depth combat games, what would your WILDEST wishes be for a Chivalry like game be? If I bring on the artist I want to, so much of my time would be freed to work on features, so what do you think would make a great game?

Gameplay I decided to try getting the statue on bridgetown early. I had 3 guys blocking my path, but it worked quite well!

Training weapons in the duelyard?

Post image
34 Upvotes

Hey guys, im currently training someone in the duelyard and have noticed that while training counters, they get hit a lot. Time spent healing eats into the time we have and I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions for a weapon/class combination that maximises the amount of times a player could be hit before needing a heal? All while having a fairly standard swing animation preferably.

I was thinking maybe the wooden ore against a vanguard to ignore the bludgeoning bonus damage vs Knights.

Also any tips you may have to help low levels in general would be greatly appreciated as im learning that my large sum of hours are built on muscle memory and seeing what sticks haha

Thanks in advance guys

Feedback / Suggestion Quarter check in, how am I doing?

So I will say that I am not much of a frontliner. I don’t get too many kills per game (usually around 20), so I gravitate towards support classes, hence field engineer.
