Hey Lads,

Just put together a first impressions video of Vikingr, again pretty basic but really digging the mod so far, and I hope you guys enjoy the video, hopefully it will help on the promotional front a bit.
I'm interested in getting more footage and doing a few more videos, but having a hard time finding players etc...

All the best,

Hello RipperX!

First; thank you ever so much for taking the time out of your schedule//life//shingading to record, edit and upload this video. It is a true mark of player-fidelity and we thank you all the more for it.

What server and time did you choose to record the footage? I must admit to the [Einherjar] server having been quiet for the past two weeks, the number of players does drop and rise much like the ocean tide. Typically; we have over 30 players a night. Promotion for the mod is difficult, I'm not keen on ramming it down people's throats - rather that they check it out themselves. Much of it also relies on Einherjar & Shielding members physically being on the server. Unfortunately, due to fine weather (and the release of damn Portal 2!), we're a little distracted.  :razz:

You might want to kick up a PM with Leofwine whom is heading up our new Saturday Night Siege Night! effort. Siege has had quite a lot of changes in Vikingr, compared to Native and is rather popular. It should be a pretty decent time to see the game under action with more players. Beyond that, I hope that you will stick it through and await for the playerbase to rise again somewhat. We've had a lot of epic times in the mod, we have a very dedicated playerbase and some good times - many more to come.

As of now; we've hosted two historical events based on the Battle of Fulford and the Battle of Stamford Bridge.
Check out the past threads here: Fulford, Stamford.

The Daddy of these events will be that holy day of English history - Hastings. Before we host that event, everything in the mod must be perfect.  :wink: However for the time being, you will have to endure the Saturday Siege and hope to also catch the server on other days for more numbers.



Also a note; we failed with the reticule to remove it. Well, we did remove it but it's relatively easy for experienced modders to place the file back in. Unfortunately, TaleWorlds have shafted us on that one. There's also taunting (Q), shield-taunting (CTRL + Q), horns for the leader classes (H) and other niceties with the banner-carriers. C functions as crouch. Anywho; keep in touch man, we'll sort something out for the-more-player-thang and all will be good.

Again, thank you for this. It is most excellent.  :razz:



Edit: Also forgot, we have a large match coming up this Saturday in Vikingr against another group. Would ye' be interested in turning out?

I noticed yoh have simple skies there, set a low hdr, you will see the improvement and it doesnt have a ****ty shine like in native and doesnt make any difference in perfomance so it will just make the mod look slightly better
 
Great video, I loved it. Btw, I made a few maps for this aswell :lol: Im stalking you with maps :razz:
 
Very nice review, thanks for the effort mate. :wink:
Of course more players are always nice and your work should help with that, but you should try joining us in the middle of the afternoon in a Saturday or Sunday (european time). There's usually many more players online and it's an even more epic and fun experience! You see some battles worthy of the age of the vikings indeed. :smile:

Haha, regarding the video, me, Thunaraz and Hengist make appearances from 4:40 'till the end. Of course my initial impression had to be caught with me saying "F|_|CK." in all chat while the longboats were moving towards the village! :lol:

 
Nice video, hope more is to come.
