I play 800 and it works fine.

Though the maps are a bit too small for that size.
The enemy usually end up creating a wall formation that will hit the edge of the map and stuff.
I'll probably drag it down to 550-600. Should be a nice size.

During my hours spent playing "Arma" I learnt that if you want big cool battles you have to sacrifice some FPS, so I do.
I'd rather have that many units on the field for a great big battle with less FPS than half those units and more FPS.

Depends on mod but at 400 its not uncommon to see spawning issues, namely for mod makers that create claustrophobic spawning areas. The engine tends to handle these anomalies remarkably well.

Actually does quite a bit. The more subtle changes being minimizing reinforcement waves and follow up battles.

Formation mods are overrated on the player end. For AI it's pretty nice but is frequently give and take.

>>164355420
>The more subtle changes being minimizing reinforcement waves and follow up battles.
which just makes battles faster
>Formation mods are overrated on the player end.
not really, there's only so much you can do with the WFAS formations, not to mention the mods that add bonuses to formation cohesion

>>164355597
>which just makes battles faster
"Just" is a bit understated considering how much IRL time this will save you. At the cost of total renown unfortunately.

It also has implications in infantry densities, cavalry horse obstruction, concentrated fire from mass archers, and differences in ranged output between invaders and defenders.

>>164355895
except it's just scaling up so the actual impact is just in time
battle size really only makes a difference when the sizes are so small the player can continuously solo them till they run out of troops

>>164355895
>>164355597
You can literally solo a 150 battle size if you have enough arrows. Hell if they have no arrows you can just circle them it just takes forever. Ive done it on a 300 battle sie with infinite arrows and a fast horse. Also having large battle sizes makes sieges harder (a plus) and makes tactics and elite troops not as over powered as you need a swath of troops to beat people not just a few elites and large tactics bonus.

>>164356071
yeah it makes sieges harder because the spawning fucks up and the troops spawn inside buildings
still planning on doing a native playthrough with a high battle size due to the lack of performance strain in native, but i might have to change the battle scenes

>>164356020
You don't seem to understand the difference between combined arms. So let me present a simple example:

1 Huscarl vs 1 Rhodok Sharpshooter
and
100 Huscarls vs 100 Rhodok Sharpshooters

Is very different.

As is:

1 Swadian Knight vs 1 Nord Huscarl
vs
100 Swadian Knights vs 100 Nord Huscarls (Assuming tight formation)

The difference should also be obvious in that Lancer AI not only engages in a melee by default but that high numbers of troops will lead to Cavalry obstructing each other, disallowing a full lancer charge.

>>164356256
More huscarls the better. Probably worth the most not in a siege.

>>164356256
there's a difference between 1v1 to 100v100 and 100v100 to 200v200
there's diminishing returns after a certain point, disregarding the fact most map scenes aren't build for troop sizes higher than 75v75
>disallowing a full lancer charge.
which just sounds like another reason for not using a higher battle size since it just fucks up cavalry from performing how they should

The scenario is similar to Zealot vs Marine. 1v1 Zealot vs Marine will always go to Zealot barring micro and upgrade differences but given enough troops its not even a contest:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h0txZBDDSA4

This is part of the reason why mass Rhodok Sharpshooters are so good in endgame and why melee vs ranged can be difficult to balance.

>>164356709
it's more indicative of native's terrible balance

>>164356764
what mod has "good" balance?

>>164356387
Due to the diminishing returns it actually makes it easier to have combined arms between different troop types. Part of the reason why mass is so good in base Warband is because the troop numbers are small to the point that diminishing returns does not effect individual unit types much. Whereas with higher troop sizes the difference between 50/50 infantry/archers and 100% archers starts to shift in favor of the balanced army since the Archers will start blocking each other.

For this reason Cavalry is actually more balanced in larger battle sizes. Why would you consider mindless F1+F3 mass knights a GOOD thing? Further what kind of an idiot commander would place all of their troops in a nice neat line for Lancers to neatly impale them?

>>164356858
1257, geko, VC
native's pretty poorly balanced because it revolves around massing top tier faction power units
>>164357106
>starts to shift in favor of the balanced army since the Archers will start blocking each other.
not by default since they start standing in one big line
or you use rows with WFAS and sit them on a hill so the elevation difference forces them to all be able to fire
>Why would you consider mindless F1+F3 mass knights a GOOD thing?
never said that, i said making cavalry not able to do their job is pretty shitty

>>164356764
Its just an illustration of the principle of combined arms and why mass ranged will tend to destroy mass melee in open terrain. Starcraft actually exaggerates this due to the marines being able to shoot through each other unlike Warband. Further Starcraft marines can maintain perfect discipline and accurately fire while engaged. Archers tend to either be weak in melee or; in Rhodok Sharpshooter's case, be incompetent against Cavalry due to having short reach weapons.

>>164357258
>not by default since they start standing in one big line
You can manually position the infantry in a separate line if you aren't incompetent.

Archers being in a single line by default actually makes it more difficult to mass archers. Being able to capitalize on geographical advantages is not a flaw,

>never said that, i said making cavalry not able to do their job is pretty shitty
Cavalry can still do their thing though - All I am asserting is the very diminishing returns you mentioned is a GOOD thing to motivate mixed armies for max combined arms. Lancers obstructing each other and engaging in a melee after the initial charge will happen even at 150 battle size.

>>164357430
making a troop the best foot archer in the game while giving it one of the best shields in the game and some of the best sidearms in the game isn't exactly well balanced

>>164357448
>Make-up
>Chainmail cowl with dress

>>164357795
>Archers being in a single line by default actually makes it more difficult to mass archers.
depends on the size of the map i'd say
but WFAS formations are best for ranged divisions, especially since advanced formations don't actually do anything for ranged units
>Lancers obstructing each other and engaging in a melee after the initial charge will happen even at 150 battle size.
depends on formation style anyway
using a single line of cavalry won't get them jammed up but it will get them picked off easier and they tend not to dent a formation as well

>>164357815
I'm not arguing that Warband is perfectly balanced by a long shot. Just that mass ranged isn't exactly an unbeatable strategy.

I really wish that Warband had Lords with gimmick armies like this. Bannerlord more than anything needs Lords with unique army compositions (Infantry/Archer/Cavalry) and a few AI templates (Rather than two)

>>164357448
what mod

>>164358048
it's a lot easier to win with in native though due to the balance issues and the lack of lords being able to do similar strategies as the player, not only on the field but in troop composition

You might as well include the fact that the Gaels cucked the Picts, too. Scotland, after all, is named after the Scotti, the late Roman name for the Irish.

Evidently the game is real though, there is gameplay footage, so unless they dramatically changed everything, or went through the laborious process of animating false gameplay footage, there's a good chance they have a game that they can release. I hope it's mostly polishing they're doing right now, so that when it's released it isn't a broken mess like most video games are nowadays.

>>164401462
promod is quite good

>>164401462
what are you defining as modern?

I am considering buying this game but I was wondering whether the Viking expansion is a standalone expansion and if so, whether it would be better to get that one than the base game. It seems that it has some features which are missing from the base game?

Also is this a game that people generally enjoy with mods or is it still a good game without mods?

Last thing: is there a demo for Linux? The official site only has a download link for the Windows version.

inb4 wintersale, I know I missed it

>>164401462
How modern? Renaissance to today is what historians would call modern. There was one mod for the original Mount and Blade that had contemporary weapons, but I don't know if that would be any good.

On release I did a full rebalance to the archery and the damage system, because the fagnwaldo team hates bows, so archers now rip through commoners like an arrow through a commoner should. But they are all but useless against heavily armoured troops.

I used the battle of agincourt as my refference point, noting that the archers slaughtered the horses and many knights were trampled and crushed and stranded in a arrow storm as opposed to one lucky arrow from 500 meters caught him in the foot and he had a stroke like warband native or el senor porcupine that is vanilla vc

>implying that a fucking arrow peircing flesh magicly changed how it killed someone in 600 years

It was a refference point you knob, it is one of the best documented battles that used archers in all of antiquity, its not hard to extrapolate and adjust the damage values based of the casualty reports and then modify slightly to account for weaker powered bows and differing armor styles/types, i did 80 hours of research on it for other battles as well just to make sure it was reasonably accurate yet still fun.

Also, fuck warbands cut peirce and blunt system, that shit is aids to balance and the fact that bows get their damage type from the bow itself not the arrow, so I had to nigger rig the troops weapons so some low teir sheep fucker wasnt using god bolts because he had a better than your average bow.

Then when I had bows perfectly balanced it ended up raping the balance on javelins to them being the most hilariously broken thing i have ever seen (one javelin ended up doing 400 damage and knocking a guy halfway across the map)

Then with both of those balanced i had to redo swords because i had to redo the entire damage system to fix the bows.

The warband damage system is not elegant or fun to make balanced, i'll boot it up to see where i left off if and if i did actually finish it, if so then i'll post it.

>implying bannerlord will ever come out

>>164415452
well wotr is a different engine so i don't know
you could just look at my submod for VC to see how i changed bows anyway
it was mainly small changes since bows aren't mainstream in the period, so small damage tweaks (more so to ammo) and adding a pierce composite bow
bows are sort of anemic in vanilla VC but you have to keep in mind the higher hp values in VC, the generally larger shields, and again the historical focus of shieldwalls and skirmishers rather than archers and crossbowmen

>>164415452
please explain how researching agincourt specifically guided your changes to VC. because it sounds like you just increased the damage of projectiles and then tried to qualify it by saying you know about agincourt and read the wikipedia article a bunch of times.

I swear Bethesda just ruins everything.

that game jam thing was just like them shitting in everybodies' faces

>>164418048
is that really what you think of M&B combat?
it's way better than "click to do canned attack animation, click twice to do canned strong attack animation"

I just didnt like that a heart shot to a half naked dude from point blank didnt drop someone, the increased hp was quite nice to work with. Also the norse of the time period used bows a lot according to archaological findings and historical accounts.

With the changes i made a shield wall vs arrows is still a walking turtle. Javelins will rape basicly anything within range. Including weak shields. (4kg object flying at around 30km/h hitting you with a sharp point tends to fuck shit up)

I lowered the power of melee weapons slightly because i personally wanted things to get stuck in combat and fight instead of playing whack-a-nord and slaughtering on first contact.

Arrows basicly dont do shit agaisnt anything with appreciable armor, but will rape weak armored units like a pack of wild dogs.

Rebalanced charge values as well, because being hit by a horse at full gallop is comparable to being crushed so with the rarity of the horses i felt they needed to have a bit more value to them.

It feels like a completely different game. A game where archers are no longer left in the rescued units tab.

>VC storyline
I failed to get Horik's support in opposing Sigurd and forgot to make a save before i fucked up.
What would happen if I had gotten his support?

>>164418240
Especially with two handed weapons, in Skyrim it feels like I'm attacking with a wet noodle.

>get support
>he kind of helps you with the Assembly and takes your side
>optionally other Jarls can take side too
>I suppose it only matters in how much money you pay to Sigurd
>then you're sent to Yngland anyway

>>164418391
He would get close and assassinate him. You did good.

>(4kg object flying at around 30km/h
javelins don't weigh 4kg
that'd be 8 pounds
they're like half a kilo or a pound and some change
of all the projectiles in VC, the siege stones would probably weigh 4 kilos

>>164418240
well, MP M&B combat is that

>>164417993
Dark Messiah combat is immensely overrated. People just like it because "lol instakill death spike kicks".

>>164417059
Alright. Thanks anyways
