Slytacular said:A question though, why do some of you people like the unrealistic stiff arm swings over a some what more realistic animations? I mean try picking up something heavy and swing it around like you do in the old M&B.
Answer: It was something many got use to and I for one cannot play Warband with the movement style it is more then animation it is the way they move and react that I could never get use to.
Also add to the answer that back then men were much stronger and were use to swinging metal around all day in battle. Some men killed as many as 1,000 or more in a day by themselves. So knowing that how weak are we in today's easy living conditions? (The time frame may be a different from the game as I recall what the old Testament said about battles)
Reason for the change maybe MP added to the game? MP ruins many SP games because of all the extra crap needed to play it. Now with that said... if they had really made MP right we would have been able to run around on a map like in SP and run into each other and fight NPC Lords as well as other player lords, but no it had to be just battles only.
Great Mod and I am very glad it was made...
