Thanks for the suggestions and support guys, I'll think on it all. The one thing I can say that is set in stone however is that I will not be adding MM style combat to the mod. Honestly, it is a result of MMs, in my opinion, horribly disgusting combat system that my entire regiment eventually lost interest in M&B and which inspired me to begin the creation of this mod. I had hoped that NW would improve things instead of making them even worse, but...oh well...and so here I am still!
I suggest you guys try the current combat system out in more detail before judging it too harshly though. The combat requires skill and avoids rewarding players for looking like ballerinas on crack, which is a good thing trust me! The striking of your teammates as a result of the sideways attacks is a temporary inconvenience as well, and you'll quickly get used to swinging in one of the other 3 directions when you have an ally along.
In short the system is different, and therefore players will need to adjust to it before they see the benefits, but when they do, they will never want to go back. This was at least true for all my testers and those who've played it extensively otherwise that I've heard from.
Anyways on a side note, I'm working on something I think everyone will find rather cool right now, but I feel like being an ass and waiting another week before showing anything! Naw, but it'l be cooler if I wait.
