Don't see this being a competitor in any serious part. Maybe it's my western bias, tho

As can be seen from the video and screenshots above, the game is copying the game mode of M&B, even using the same skeleton animation and similar maps.
Tips: Tencent is one of the biggest IT company in china and has been notorious for copying other software and ideas. Actually, their core product qq is a copy, more precisely, a refined version of MSN.
Actually, I'm wondering what armagon will do with more m&b-like games in the market, like chivalry and the war of roses(but not this one, another Tencent's inferior copy). After all, these games post threat to the position of m&b，especially when players have used to what the current version of m&b can provide.
So, in a word, and with all due respect, can we have sth new about M&B2?
It's like films from The Asylum. So long as they don't directly touch upon copyrighted material they can't be sued or taken down legally. Like a major Chinese developer could be taken down from the West anyways.
As the Soviet Union shows we do in fact have direct control over history.
All Chinese games has exaggerating graphics, and some core feature of previously successful games, in this case M&B. At once time, some of their most populated MMORPG somewhat had the battle and skill system from Diablo II, but still with their own original settings, in the martial art universe, mainly Jin Yong's universe. Jin Yong is like the J.R.R.Tolkien and George R.R Martin of Chinese literature.
You can't say it's a copycat yet, until you've played the game. It's like judging a book by its cover.
But the fact about many Chinese games, being copycat of another Chinese game or international game is the truth.

Hopefully this has better special effects and voice acting.

Man, they even have the same maps (in the video is shown the map ruins and the arena), the same way of doing sieges, the exactly same combat system.
They did copy everything, Warband is a genre itself, true, but Warband is a game and it's unique. It's the only one like that and they did copy it, exactly.
Iteration is the way video games get better. If they do things better, no one should argue.
Yes, but how about some original ideas for a change? Why mindlessly copy down to map details?
Would it make their heads explode if they thought on their own for a while? Or you can't do that in China as it's culturally frowned upon to have original ideas?
Same gripe I have with Russian knockoffs.

Hero, im sure you can find MODS for warband that look just as good, with the same theme and everything. though i have to admit, their grass texture tiles suck. They suck harder than a thai girl.
From watching the video the only think Unique they added was the kill move with the dagger. the animations look like this pretty much

It's irritating somehow to see a well-known Warband scene like Ruins in a "completely different" game.
Let's see it as a proof for Warbands headway and last but not least for its exemplary function..

It is a blatant copy... Just be arsed to watch the video. The ranged weapon extending crosshair is exactly alike.
