Viking Conquest: Reforged Edition (Lastest features added, page 1) - 31/05/2015

And he based his guess on the fact that we will be getting information in the following weeks. Since it is already 20th May, a Beta in July seems reasonable if the weeks part is going to be true.

I find that to be very wild speculation. "the following weeks" usually refers to 2-3 weeks, which means June in this case. Also there was never any news that it'll be a beta at first. For all we know it could be released as a full update without testing.

It is speculation indeed nothing more, I don't have any "proof" to back it. I'm just basing myself on the fact that we really urged the devs for news (hence this topic) so they're announcin it but it doesnt mean that its close from being up and ready either.

As far as beta-testing goes they've always done it for important patches and this one is obviously big, lot of news features and implements, thus possibly quite a lot of minor bugs to iron out. In such context I don't see why they would pass on the awsome advantages of consulting the whining community we happen to represent .

All I wanted to say is that we should'nt be expecting a release in the next 7 days and thats fine : we all know what happens when developpers put the deadline before everything else and no one wants that. I prefer to wait for a nice and clean update rather than a messy one.

Post-scriptum : the secret to such patience ? Clash of Kings 2.0 m'lord !

Thing is now since its not save compatible i have to abandon my game, and wait until this comes out to start playing vc again. But i wouldn't mind waiting if you could release all the stuff at once and you don't do a repeat of the launch.

 

[Faenwulf]

It IS savegame compatible. Some of the new features just don't work. Whatever those features may be.

It's not savegame compatible because I am not going to miss out on features.

 

[Faenwulf]

That is an understandable and acceptable statement.
Still, please don't write it's not savegame compatible because it is. People will read that and start ranting angrily about things that are not there. This is the internet, after all.

Well, the original post is already nearly 5 days old...so you better hurry to keep that post.

News is comming... (days, no weeks  )

Based on Idibil's comment and first post -> detailed info about new features should be released before May 29, 2015

Oh man! Please tell me "The Last Thuata de Dannan" is a quest to become the High King of Ireland! 

隐藏

The Tuatha Dé Danann brought four magical treasures with them to Ireland, one apiece from their Four Cities:

    The Dagda's Cauldron
    The Spear of Lugh
    The Stone of Fal
    The Sword of Light of Nuada

The Stone of Fal is a stone at the Inauguration Mound which served as the coronation stone for the High Kings of Ireland. In legend all of the kings of Ireland were crowned on the stone up to Muirchertach mac Ercae.

Nice features showcased, eagerly awaiting more info.

How will the dog work? Like a horse making enemies fall down?

I would assume so, horses are the animal everything else is based off, when not using a human model.

 

[Urban_Viking]

By the way guys, there is more info added to the original post on page one in case you haven't noticed, there are some pictures and features not mentioned in the original picture.
There's Norse temples, and berserkers. A Irish quest line and a picture of the dog.

 

[JBoag]

Very big fan guys have been for years, please never stop . Brytenwalda was an amazing mod that immersed the player like no other. Just saw the picks for the new update hopefully it will draw me into the dark ages like Brytenwalda did. Thanks VC team   

 

[Articulo34]

Berserkers? I can see christians tremble already.

 

[Faenwulf]

Ohhhh, BERSERKERS.

Nobody will save you now, christian kingdoms of Britain!

 

[mikeboix]

Nice, nice. Really like the new feature of the pagan temples 

 

[edwardecl]

What about a cat companion?

What would you do with it?

Wikipedia says "Vikings used cats as rat catchers and companions."

And lets not forget the Viking legends about cat chariots... and kittens being given to new brides.

[Kjertesvein]

Ohhh... I'm trying to justify to myself that my love for the MB game is not an addiction even though I've spent 1800 hours on it. 

Who am I kidding.  thank u VC team. ^^ I lub u.

Will we be able to play as a berserker? And do you plan to add an animation "bite the shield" if so it would be my killing feature!

Keep up the good work.

 

[Faenwulf]

There is already a Berserker Skill that you can get, randomly I guess. Just like the Shield taunt or the war cry. It makes you move faster and I think it also makes yo udeal more damage and take less. But it only lasts for a short time, after that you are exhausted for a while, which makes you slwoer and, again I think, also makes you deal less damage while you receive more. Also, the screen is slightly darkened in the meantime, while it is red in Berserk-Mode. It is also started with a satisfying shout out, like "Kill them all!" or "For the gods!".
