"It's the little things that count" Small things which would improve M&B2

[Torak]

Basically, small, not major features that would improve the game, these can be aesthetic things or something that happens mid-battle that you wouldn't be able to tell was actually happening if you actually payed attention.


I'll start off:

1. Troops chattering before a fight. You tell your 40  Rhodok spearmen to hold their ground before the calvalry arrive at them. Before you trot to another area, you overhear two of the spearmen making conversation to one another;

'Oy, he's gonna get us Killed.'
'Don't be a coward, he got some kind 'a scheme written up.'

2. A shield gets broken in a fight, but it doesn't just collapse off your arm, the top half of it stays belted onto your arm while the broken bottom falls. The shield is rendered useless, though.


Etc.

1: would need more voice recording.Also after a while it would drive you insane hearing the same chat over and over

2:Shield wouldn;t really stay on your arm.They arn;t bolted to the armor,it's 2 leather straps bolted to the back of a wooded or metal board.In case of a broken shield most people would just slide it off their arm as it is a uneccisary hinderance/weight.

When knocked onto the ground, the victim should scream some sort of profanity. I know I would.

I already do...

Ok, maybe not scream.

When entering quest screen by pressing Q pressing it again should close the screen. Same for character, inventory, party screens.

I don't know about the chattering. Doesn't seem very likely to me. The voice recording I agree with, much much much more is required (partially because people now say "oof" when they go down. Wouldn't they scream?)

how about adding some war shouts when the enemy is near, i keep thinking about the starting scene of gladiator (the movie...) when the barbarian are shouting.
it could be really cool to hear 40 nord huscars shouting at an knights when they start they charge .
they could add screams like "to the death" or other chesse stuff
