Yes, we will be attending Gamescom in Cologne, Germany this August (no surprise there, eh!).</p></br> [/parsehtml]Read more at: http://www.taleworlds.com/en/Games/Bannerlord/Blog/108

In gamescom you will only be able to play the multiplayer, probably the captain mode or the skirmish mode. Additionally, they will show single-player content through videos.

 

[Bjorn The Dead]

Still no answers to my question? I kinda need that info if I'm going to make arrangements to go. I won't like to spend money on a ticket and accommodation for essentially the same demo as last year's. Or a demo that's not some what close to the finished article at this point.

I think they can't clarify this when there is 4 months before the event. But this is important for everyone especially for the people who plan to go the event. I hope we will have some answer before it is too late.

This blog exemplifies the ultimate battle, SOON™ Vs HOPE™...

This blog is totally wasted because all its content is summarizable to:

We would like to tell you that as some of you already know, this year we will be attending the Gamescom in Cologne where the general public will be able to enjoy the Multiplayer Bannerlord facet in a completely open way. We will also allow a single player campaign's facet to be covered by the specialised press, which will be able to record the content as in other editions. We're looking forward to giving you a chance to play the game, and try out the quests for yourselves! In the meantime, thanks for reading this Development Blog and stay tuned for more Bannerlord news on our website, Facebook and Twitter.

This whole paragraph could have been the last paragraph of a blog dedicated to Dynasties, or Advanced Diplomacy, or Campaign Map Part 2, or Criminal Operations, etc...but no. 

What a surprise! A new screenshot we haven't se... oh wait. Same map as in 2017 but with more palms...oh yes I love date palms...  Stop being hermetic and stop playing with smoke and mirrors...

Spoiler

All right... you're going to Gamescom... another year. Attendees will be able to enjoy Multiplayer; okay. But what modes will attendees be able to enjoy? Captain mode, skirmish, siege...etc? which ones?
And regarding the SP? will there be features not implemented as in last year's edition? Will it be a prepared demo or the game finished?

The closed beta what will be before or after? If it's before I understand...if it's after, please have someone explain it to me because I don't understand that purpose...

Will Armagan, this year's spokesperson, explain to inept interviewers how Bannerlord works? Will Armagan delegate this year to someone who is proactive for the sake of business-client communication (target audience)?


Questions, about questions that overlap in layers over piles of questions about a pile of unanswered questions accumulated over 7 years...

Callum, with affection... but yours is scandalous...

So this is a blog about gamescom to tell us that a future blog will be about gamescom. Are you **** trolling us?

+1 

Of course they do, to this week's blog you will have to add the blogs "Road to Gamescom", "Gamescom 2019 Our thoughts" and "Gamescom 2019 Recap"; having a global view of the event in this way. 

They need to have enough to amaze game journalists with preset scenarios/saves. They will get their full attention if they are finally announcing a release date (Spring 2020?) and they need to show them a nearly finished game. (The purpose of the current daily meetings is to plan for such a nearly finished version in August. Finally, a deadline they can't dodge!)

+1 for the dart thrown with classy

These events are good in the sense that they makes developers get their act together. I wouldn’t expect a complete product however.

. If you are active around here on the forums, then I'm pretty sure you won't miss out!

What if you're only sporadically very active, but it depends on the alignment of planets and papers due?

Can I be selected if I'm in south America or it will be too much of a deal?

Some love for us latinos here would be lovely, indeed.

 

[RoboSenshi]

I think y'all finally broke Terco...

 

[Antar]

Hmmmm, a Beta on the horizon, eh?

So many south americans here that a beta server in São Paulo seems reasonable heh?

Woohoo! Sort of.... Looking forward to Gamescom and the BETA!  I'm ready whenever you are. Take your time guys! Ready for it when you are

 

[PanzerDan86]

I’m really just excited about the single-player. I’ve never played MP Warband.  In my opinion the SP just offers such a more detailed and rich experience with the whole sandbox aspect and all the great overhaul mods. I have other games that I play MP on.  However, I might decide to give MP a try for Bannerlord. It could turn out to be fun!

Is there a crime multiplayer mode?

Why is it always ~ multiplayer? this month, 2 blogs about multiplayer beta, multiplayer gamemode, multiplayer only gamescom, and then 2 singleplayer blogs about aomething no one cares, why the **** is it always ~ multiplayer?

Think of the devblogs like they're PG-13. You get one, use it wisely, --Orion

They're clearly investing in the e-sports scene.

Problem is, when BL comes out, e-sports won't be a thing anymore.

 

[rrtdfgdfyredtdtgdrtdr]

Just a quick question, how tf is the game only in beta?

 

[Terco_Viejo]

I think y'all finally broke Terco...

It's been a long time since we broke up, my dear RoboSenshi.

Callum never gave me what I really needed; just a shadow of his love was what I ended up longing for, that love™ he promised me one day never wrapped me in his sweet warmth. The affair has been deteriorating; the first disappointment was when he flirted with Steam users more than he did here with us. Second when I found out that we wouldn't have ambushes and the way he let us know; that's when something inside of me broke, but I went on wholeheartedly drying my tears. Third that despite my insistence, we still don't know about the important issues of the single player campaign...and he seems to be deaf to my insinuations through memes; he even don't answers my messages and is only interested in things related to the MP, even though I don't like it.  There is no hope™ in me today, not since I read in discord this recent message:

Our affair was always a lie... Callum, you have hurt me in the deepest, where is the love™ you promised us? Tell me...where?
Soon™, hold on a little longer... sweet heady lies; yet there is no hope™ in me today; there is no hope™ in me anymore... since you have said that the harvesting season is a lie...

1) Steamer pay and young.
2) M&B [marco polo] fog alway.
3) multiplayer campaign catch up with the trend.

This is clearly a massive undertaking for us, so we are devoting most of our time and effort into ensuring that things go as smoothly as possible at Gamescom. Thankfully, all of the work being done on this front brings us ever closer to the release of the game, so it is time well spent!

Making another advertisement build brings us closer to the release of the game, but using a pretty build to take appealing screenshots of already implemented features would take too much effort from the devs part and would generate further delay.

No more questions.
