<p>We are back with our series of interviews with TaleWorlds’ team. Today we want to introduce you to a very important role in every development team. Every time a game designer thinks of a cool feature or an animator creates a beautiful movement, there’s someone who has to find a way to make it happen and implement everything in the actual game. You are right, we are talking about the programmers, those code magicians that turn designers’ wishes into reality – and then fix all the issues that usually follow every change: a video game is a very complex system, and changing even the smallest thing can create unexpected problems!</p></br> [/parsehtml]Read more at: http://www.taleworlds.com/en/Games/Bannerlord/Blog/40

As in the past, my message, I'm not writing specifically to anyone.
Just not the first time I hear - if you want realism, wait for it to be added in mods.
Let me answer you the same - if you want more fantasy, wait for the mods in which it will add.
Why are swords on their backs, trees like telegraph poles, identical horses, and the like, would not be added to the modes? Let the sword hang on the belt, and in fashion it will be added to the back.
One important point. I did not say or say - do as I want 100%
I'm just telling my opponents - why did you decide that your point of view is more correct than mine? Just because it's yours?

You guys want realism its fine and all but it will ruin the M&B feel we all used to have , which made us fall in love with this game in the first place.
The game is in a good direction. You might think that it will be better to have more realism but it will actually be boring in my opinion.
Kingdom Come Deliverence and Mordhau are all boring games which do not even get close to give me the feeling that M&B gives. Please don't try tell Taleworlds to learn something from them.

I quite like how the warband mod ACOK handled large weapons. You’d still carry them on your back, but many couldn’t be used on horseback. I really liked this as it didn’t ruin the gameplay, but forced you to pick your loudout more carefully for different situations which was great.
I suppose a simple calculation using weight and length would determine whether the weapon can be used on horseback.

RPG is a bit vague term, isn't it?
There are tabletop rpgs, there are computer games rpgs that try to emulate them.
In both instances there are different flavours in RPGs. Some are very heavily story based (say mass effect, witcher). There are those that are not. M&B is not story driven. Although it has potentnial to be like that (ie. Vikings Reforged), M&B is true sandbox (unlike fake sandbox like skyrim). You recieve your tools and devs let you just play with them however you want.
In Vikings mod, lore is of extreme importance. It has significant part in the plot. In vanilla m&b though, it's virtually of no relevance. You can play for hundreds of hours before you even learn faction names. It does not matter wheter you know history of Praven. In tabletop RPG or fiction terms, it's fluff.
Of course, that does not mean devs should put absolutely no effort into lore. If they do and world gets additional flavour, well done. But it affects gameplay in very low key fashion.

still bad? How have you managed to deduce that?
I started to play mount and blade warband because the combat system which is mainly about distance and timing is realistic. most of the games out there does not have these simple qualities. what I want from bannerlod is that it just sould be more advanced version of warband. yes I want realism when it comes to weapon carrying but if they do not do it, most probably they will not, I am okay with that. what is wrong with demanding it.

That IMO sound as the best middle ground. Quite realistic (well... physically possible), yet won't prevent any loadout. I.e. 1s to draw weapon from belt, 3s from the back. Double that for sheathing. Just don't forget options to quick-switch (drop current weapon on the ground) and ability to fight with 1h while holding large weapon (bow, spear, 2h sword) in off-hand.Do not look here said:
That would really give the reason to using 1h as side-arm for archers, other than price.
And few weapons to be impossible to sheath at all (just the longest lances and pikes, huge pavise shields). And maybe sheaths on the saddle too? Lost when you dismount, but able to carry long lances.
And even in Witcher universe Geralts habits were considered strange and unusual by everyone around (at least in the books). So absolutely failed argument.Varrak said:> Devs put weapons on characters back in Witcher 3
"Wooow so cooool
> Devs put weapons on characters back in Bannerlord
"Boooo, not realisticcc
Come on now, Callum already told that they don't copy/paste history.

If you honestly believe that Warband's combat is realistic, other than the aspect that it only needs a physical weapon and has physics based combat, you are wrong. Warband's combat is not realistic to real world standards, it's down the earth and bare bones compared to other games. And that is why it's popular, it's simple and fun. Realistic? Not even close.
that really depends on the frame of reference. more realistic than what? The standards of realism in video games is really low and m&b combat is certainly more realistic and grimey than combat in games like skyrim or the witcher. Of course it's not perfect medieval combat. no one is asking for that. but mount and blade at least has some relation to it compared to other games.

Are you honestly saying that swinging an object above your head has never happened before in all of history? Swinging a weapon above your head in a circle motion is not a modern thing.

Its not realistic, but its very much better than pressing a button and having your character spin into tornadoes and hit multiple enemies.578 said:
How exactly would YOU translate realistic sword fighting into a keyboard and mouse? Warband is by far the best we have right now in terms of melee weapon control. Sorry but you are wrong and I agree with bjorntheconqueror.
TW has never labeled their games with "fantasy". We have to take it for what it is: a game set in a fictional Medieval world.
