The tutorial is broken though. In advanced combat training you can't do one of the moves, it doesn't progress.

Dude, learn the moves in game, it's not that hard to figure out how to swing your sword with all the available buttons. If you want any tips, feel free to ask :)

@JP, yeah it's tons of fun... but overall I'm glad to see that a lot of SA guys did buy it, here's hoping the Steam Christmas sale will bring even more locals ;)
 
Bought this two weeks ago, played about 29 hours since. Not sure offhand what SA server I've been playing on, it's an iGame server. Server only got really packed on xmas and boxing day. Before that it was dribs and drabs and a max of 8 players.

Haven't yet played free-for-all mode, would love to give that a bash :)

StoneCold, <edit>How about changing the non team deathmatch server to free-for-all mode?

What was the reason for the rubber banding tonight on your servers?
What does it cost to host a server? </edit>

I'll just convert the TDM one to FFA and TDM server. If you joined the Steam community page I set up, you would see the reason why I did away with a FFA server, too much vote kicking etc.

BUT, I made the modification just now :)

PS: I'm the only person that hosts servers for this game locally, no other ISP does ;)

How should one handle receiving friendly fire or being TK'ed by team mates who don't give a rats rear end about friendlies that they take out when swiping at an enemy? There's no game supported built in penalty for TK'ing people is there by any chance?

Sorry for the late reply. Well, the only thing you can do is call a kickvote against another person via the console. I really hate the idea of kickvoting, in the past it got abused when I had the 24/7 Arena duel server. People kickvoted others who didn't want to duel and I hated it, because it drove players away.

So, I removed that server, but once the new content patch lands this month, which adds duel mode officially, I'll make a new duel only server to cater for the masses. BUT at this stage, the kickvoting I don't really condone, but I'll check and see if there isn't an automatic kick system if you teamkill too much and implement that on the servers.

I'm just curious as to where these servers are hosted?
 
Oh man. This is great. I remember watching the teaser for this game a while back and thinking how much I wanted to play this. When I heard it was MP-focused I immediately grew sceptical of the chances of playing it online. But now that it's sorted, thanks to you StoneCold, I'm buying this game as I type. See you guys in the fray.
 
I wanted to get this during the Steam sale and had no idea there was actually a local community for the MP so I didn't bother. FFS.

Hey man, I suppose I shouldn't tell you then that gamersgate.com had a -50% off special yesterday on Chivalry as well :(

Did your servers die StoneCold? I wanted to play tonight :( Played on international servers instead. A little inebriated I am :p

On request, I took the duel server offline earlier tonight, because the team objective one wasn't getting any action. So, I'll probably only have the one server (team objective one) only running this week. I really hope they release the content patch which officially adds duel mode soon. Then I'll put up a duel server again, and still keep the team objective one running :)

Let me know if you have any questions, the servers do restart themselves due to Steam, but I always restart them at least once a day, so all should be good. :D
 
Guys, where was everyone this weekend? Needed to get my fix so I was on at 2am Sunday and checked in a few times during Sunday in the arvies right though to Sunday night. People on the server ranged from zero to only a handful.

edit: On the topic of duelling, the overseas duelling server i was on, they had their rules down pat and everyone behaved. Taunt (default C) to challenge someone and if they accept they return the taunt. If they want to refuse, then they crouch.
