I like that there's catapults and apparently walls can be damaged by them. Infantry climbing up ladders in file rather than the mess of shoving is very nice to see as well. Still some awkwardness in getting past your own guys around the battering ram but eh.

They also got stuck around all the doors too while they looked up. I'm sure that kind of pathfinding issue will get fixed.

Or it might be an AI thing, they don't have to cram inside the gatehouse attempting to bash it when they can't reach it. Since there seems to be an indoor placement where you toss down naphta and rocks at people.

I really liked the javalins flying all over the place and bouncing off the castle wall, physics please.

Did I not post to watch this?

I'm kinda hype for this, hopefully the modding community will take off like for the previous titles. I really hope it will come with it's own version of the awesome formation control mods for warband, it really changes everything.

I am also rather excited, I can't wait for Mount & Musket for M&B2.

[Cthulhu]

Starting up M&B, god help me.

I'm trying to find an old mod I used to play almost exclusively, the game felt wrong when I didn't play it.  I don't remember exactly what it was called, it may have become the 1257 AD historical mod, but this one wasn't historical.

It definitely had a number in the 1257 range, and it was set in Calradia with modifications to suit that period.  It may have been farther back in time.  Limited, crusader era plate with can helmets and stuff, no maximilian or anything, no warhammers, nothing you wouldn't expect to see in the early medieval era.  Factions were changed to be more obviously whatever their historical basis was.  THe ones I remember most distinctly were Swadians became a Templar-style brotherhood, and Rhodoks were Italians with pavise crossbowmen

I like it when sequels are just "well have the same game except prettier and also we fixed some annoying things"

[Cthulhu]

I feel like M&B's the kind of thing where the fans would riot if they changed the formula.

I just noticed on the video that the 2H the dev was using actually slashed across multiple opponents. My hype has officially hit critical levels.

There was a mod with a name along the lines of Calradia 1257 AD, which was separate from 1257 Europe mod.

I didn't watch the PC Gamer thing they did a couple months ago, but have they shown anything to do with lords and politics? This video showed that there were some definite improvements to city\castle management but nothing really new when it came to lordly shenanigans.

Always seemed strange that no new wannabe lords would show up and that old lords would remained relatively unchanged (besides holdings) even if 50 years went by. Not to mention kings constantly feasting, no one every actually getting married despite months of courtship, and new realms never forming without player guidance, etc. Might be spoiled by Crusader Kings 2 and am expecting too much, but I would hope something is planned.

Edit: Found this. Definitely better than what the system used to be at the very least.
