Xbox Combat

[Ultibossme3]

combat on Xbox since the release of warband on such has been total mayhem. spammers, obsessive feinters, and other general garbage are the order of the day. With the weapons and combat system, these are to be expected, after all, two-handers swing faster than most one handers and things like glaives and hafted blades have the damage ability of a two-hander the speed of a two-hander and the length of a polearm. my concern is that weapons like these will be in the new game, as well as the ability to obsessively feint.

Wrong part of the forum, dude.

Feinting and spamming are legitimate plays, and can be overcome with practice. Two handed swords are going to be rare in single player IIRC, but we don't know if they will be available in multi. Feinting seems to have been tweaked a bit as well, according to one of the devblogs.

Yes, and I have found ways to overcome that, namely blocking. Although I see spammers get good armour and plenty of kills every day and I find it annoying that these are people who jump the curb and get kills on lesser fighters. It took me over a year of only playing M&B to get as good as I am and I hate those who just skip the grind. Even though there is nothing more satisfying then ending there kill streak
