Mount & Blade: Warband Interview With Armagan Yavuz

[themAsians]

This is a very underrated/unpopular game. More people need tp know about this. Probably the best fps/tps ive ever played.

[tomaswestholm2]

"we have a game type called butthole" sounds interesting..

[PROgameism]

TURKISG game 

[drewlark99]

Turkey is awesome for Mount and Blade, and a plethora of other stuff.

[3choBlaster]

lol I've been playing m&b fire and steel for a few days now I didn't know the lead designer was a Turk lol now I want to play it even more !

[S3fR0]

The next Mount and blade should be entirely a medieval war/economy sim without the cheap looking travel map, it should be all walking around to your castles sort of like an mmorpg map but you can muster armies and stuff to defend/attack other armies castles that would be sooo sick! that is probably how its going to be in the near future and i cant fricken wait!

[alexarw1]

Mod makers thankx a lot for all the awesome mods!!! the only problem with mount and blade is the options there is not enough to do..but the fighting etc is great.

im downloading Calradia Antica mod for warband..i think this gone be the best..and of course wedding dance and prophesy of pendor where great for m&b1 ;)

[primarch4]

how old is the first game and this game? like what year where they released?

[Hemouth]

this game has fucking massive potential.Combat is briliant, just needs abit more addons with quests and a good storyline and better campaign map.

[mindadventurer]

i HAVE played this game 581 hours ... the fact that this game did not get game of the year is a joke.

[Penguen002]

Mount and blade; Fire and Sword... Coming soon.

[callos1232]

yesss! I have warband. im new just got it at walmart for 30$! went home and played it for 6hours straight!

[egeseatr35]

@Blewvane I prefer mamelukes... They are slightly cheaper and battle after charging.

[Mutedmouth]

He says 64 players on one server :)

Guess that line got beaten already, just look at em siege servers!!!

:D

[Sikeman214]

@Mutedmouth yeah, my friend on Steam told me "im having a nerd-gasm cuz theres seriosuly 150 people playing on this server!" lol

[123eldest]

@grovyl You only need one mod - cRPG :D

[alperenaaa]

[letmeinyourwindow]

You're a legend, Armagan

[kxr21007]

[alperenaaa]

[progamerX94]

[Trexboss]

[arrow2rock]

[JoseChester]

/raises hand

[thedashrush]

@JoseChester hell ya

[WeThePeople1770]

[iavor55]

Wait wait wait!

The release date for US was 19th march and for Europe it is 2nd of april....doesnt that mean that US should already be getting the game in they're stores!?

@TheGarryModder

[Bighairyfart]

[alex123nail]

[HOREO45]

@mq9demo

This 30th of March

[bazza6982]

UK Release is 19th March.

[rantanplan1888]

His english is not bad. His pronunciation is very bad though.

[redbullahh]

@rantanplan1888 who cares if you understand what he's talking about? of course his pronunciation will be bad becouse the way you use your mouth when talking turkish is too different from english.

i am proud of you armagan yavuz. thanks for creating such a great and original game :)

[MrJonteh]

Argh i can wait until this game release. I'm the huge fan and a huge Mount & Blade gamer. continue whit the good work!

[fijau]

OMG interviews from Paradox suck...

[Slimebeast]

The castle siege game type he is talking about at 1:52 is a dream come true!

[BWSP]

This is so awesome, I played M&B for years, and installed it once again few days ago... Can't wait for Warband ^^ This is game of the decade for me...

[Orion8888888]

Yeah... i stepped accidentally into this game, i think it was the Beta version, 0.750 or so, back in 2006. I'm not much of a gamer, but this one got me from the beginning. I know it's not the best of its kind but on the other hand this game is so unique that there isn't anything like it to compare... I hope that the creators will not rest because their work has so many areas of evolution.

[horns828]

taleworlds works hardcore all the time they have even more game than mount and blade (though its there biggest). Fire and sword is a good one as well

[CodeNameAlfa]

awesome game..... even grafics suks the game just awesome....

[metalicalol]

For those that donno.... M&B. is not mainstream game, it's gameplay is insanely good and that is special at this game ;)

[Locklear117491]

@Wll10441

his english is pretty good considering hes from turkey

[Wll10441]

@Locklear117491 yah i know, i shouldnt realy expect everyone to know english that well. i just kinda of forget we arnt the only country in the world. english is one of the hardest languages to get good at unless your born here of course. but anyways whats with your user name? its my last name. which is rare to find.

[Locklear117491]

I got the name from a book. :)

[BlackGamesHaker]

So you cand download Warband from they 'r site ? or you need to buy it ?

[hotKnife612]

this game is underrated, lets bring it to the spotlight!

[TheBroadMinded]

@hotKnife612 agreed I played this game forever with MODS it never gets boring.

[Blindar]

UHHHH UMMMM UAAHHHHH wow thats fuckin annoying.

[48days]

I'd rather he spent time developing a great game then learning English.

[horns828]

Team deathmatch is where its at...

[MEGordon2]

"You can sneak in and open the gate for your team mates" yea great idea! if the gate wassent bugged!

[victojua1213]

Love this game !

[tapiocco]

Loving the game....but what about an english course? ;-P

[Octavius0]

The commanding sections idea will be awesome.

[Aelkamal]

if it is 64 players with even more mercenaries NPC this is going to be INSANE !!!

[craphunter]

do you download this game or can you buy it from the store? cos i downloaded the demo from steam

[gangsterjurre]

you can not buy it inn a store you need to buy it online or at steam

[VooDooEf]

@Freezer777 maybe you should know, that speaking in non native language, isn't easy?

[Freezer777]

He seems to know english quite well, just like you and I know english well. Some say umm sometimes and some say umm after every word.

Where he's from, I guess they say ehh. Some say ehh once in a while, and others say ehh after every word.

I think some notes would have helped this man, or at least someone could have edited out all the "ehhh"... but that would take far too much time, wouldn't it

[VooDooEf]

@Freezer777 ok thx, i see now, yes preparing some text, would be indeed good, and to cut off all ehhs. from the video, as well.

[willypete2171]

in his opening statement he says that the game will support up to 64 players... im reading everywhere that its 32 players. anyone know what the real deal is?

[The111DooD]

Well he said 64 himself. Are you sure you didn't misread the others as 32 players a side?

[standardrifle]

@willypete2171

64 is possible. It is possible to raise it higher, as long as your server is able to support it though. (But I think you have to change some stuff first in order to exceed the 64 limit)

[Trexmaster12]

Uhh... when it'll be released?

[Zetzo55]

30. march is the scheduled release date :)

[Trexmaster12]

@Zetzo55

Thank you, Zetzo! =)

I've been informed about M&B Warband just today.

[Zetzo55]

Then you should try the Mount&Blade demo, unless of course you already have M&B or have tried the demo of it.

Cause the game is awesome! :D

[Calvin939]

FUC KYE

[DTerror1303]

GO MOUNT AND BLADE!!!

[edwinECE]

@TheKhergit

whats wrong with you ?

writing an essay is not required...

[kaiserpanda]

in the beta, one of the best games I've played this year. no other game does melee combat so well. also dividing up a large ammount of AI between 8 or so "commanders" in a coordinated mp game is amazing, it's like first person Total War.

[Aldrahill]

People arguing that the there is little graphical upgrades: so what?! If there was to be a large graphical upgrade, it would be possible I would have trouble playing it! I couldn't care less - hell, the slightly grainy feel of it is, I find, rather fitting.

Also, I rather like the aiming reticle... All in all, I'm counting down the days till the release date!

[Spartiatai300]

Exactly, and besides I'd rather have larger battles then better quality. M&B looks just fine.

[Mazzi96]

I'm a beta tester too and all I can say is:

This game is one of the best games I've played, the combat mechanics are great, the graphics are great and the modding possibilities are awesome

[nalfunction]

Actually this game is pretty diaspointing... i'm in the BETA and, well its not as good as it should been. and i really hope that the SP for warband is good or else these guys have wasted their time.

[joshy959]

lol alcohol reference? :P

[wolfsnackers]

I love M&B but really the devs are hopless, two years and warband doesn't even upgrade any graphics or little else, still that awful aiming reticule, you look at what the modders have done particularly polished landscapes and buildings it puts these guys to shame, even the marriage aspects has been done by modders already.

[joshy959]

@wolfsnackers

It did upgrade the graphics your retard >_>

Look at the horse's and the axe's ^^

[wolfsnackers]

@joshy959 oh great, horses and axes! what a massive leap! kind of pointless when they left the landscape and terrain at 1998 standards at best, Yes, I know it's all about gameplay blah, blah, but really the modders are way ahead of the actual devs if they actually got some of these guys on board they'd have a better product than this meagre offering.

[TheKhergit]

this ain't some simple add in some horse textures and axes, its a revamp of the style you fight for one, being able to reuse the throw projectives changes combat for those who use largely nords and nord weaponry and those of vaegirs. the details on the landscape and terrian is best to be like it is, could you run a battle of 100 or more each side (200 doll npc's with AI and textures) running around on a spick and spam terrian? dnt think so, so stop being so childish about something like that

[wolfsnackers]

@TheKhergit Jesus, you win fanboi if the decade with a 5 post answer and why is it "childish" to talk about graphics? games are far more immersive if they look like you are in the real world.. M&B looks like toy town. One modder working alone made polished landscapes which makes the game look like 2010 and no slowdowns. you can have both gameplay and better looking world, doesn't have to be a choice you done need to be bethesda to make M&B better the devs just made a token effort with warband.

[TheKhergit]

the mods only adding new skins, no actual effects, and its childish to belive they'd have the money and resources to give what you seem to expect, and if i were to turn down the graphics from top to bottom on current mount and blade, that alone adds an extra 200 battle capacity i'm able to hold, the graphics make a huge difference when playing games like this as the npc's are dolls with AI's, a few hundred of them with a nice terrian will crash a normal spec pc, its there way of ensuring they

[wolfsnackers]

Then you havent played many mods, not seen polished landscapes? changes the entire landscape and terrain... cost ? nothing! resources?... one modder! please grow up forums are full of people like you fanboi shills that dont even discuss aspects of the game everyone knows is lacking (unless blind) the fact your'e called khergit and opened this youtube account just to reply and hide your identity tells me all I need to know about you, now run along pre-order your copy ASAP goodbye.

[TheKhergit]

i have, those new landscapes are just skin changes, no actual effects more than a bunch of pictures moving, what they're planning to do is gradual movement into better graphics and lighting as they become more capable, and ofc i relise the game is lacking graphics, just as i notice flaws in AI, in sieges and loads more, no game is perfect, but i at least have patients to wait for them to improve, they need money to do what you ask, and with attitudes like yours who would buy the game?

[TheKhergit]

can target the largest audience as well, average laptops have difficulty playing the game as it is, increase graphics and thats laptops out of picture and some small and average spec pc's, why not you start a brand new company and make a game with better graphics starting from nothing?

[CelestinProphet]

Actually. My laptop isnt that good. I can play on 800x600 with maximum textures, ragdoll, bodies stay on field, and 200 players and the game is playable

[TheKhergit]

can you play to the same spec an outdated rib like mine can do? and i play on full resolution, and all video options set to highest, but without that i can add your entire capacity onto mine and not have to worry about the slightest bit of lag, now add in some decent graphics which would turn my 500 to a battle where your now able to solo a war campaign

[TheKhergit]

as well as that the textures are put on for all the armour and the characters themselves, if you had paid attention to the video you would of saw lighting effects and smoother textures and new details to the armour, the game can't exactly become top notch graphics because of the average spec of peoples computers, heck i run a gaming rig but i still can't manage to cap that 1k limit of the battle sizer mod, my rig can only handle 500 cap battles and 300 sieges, and you mention about the mods?

[TheKhergit]

thats meant to be that way, this game is as much about editing it as it is playing it, and you say they have done more? you relise all that they can do has already been done BY the creators? thats why they can do it, right? your like a child, your basically saying its better to do the same thing more than once than to give us something more, and funny how you didn't mention the multiplayer eh? maybe because you can't find anything bad about it, being able to use a toolset and actually creating

[TheKhergit]

textures and details like that and making new game systems and options are on a whole different level, with this modders will be able to make new campaign maps to a better quality than they have, same with making whole new multiplayer maps, the people are paradox and taleworlds are doing great, specially as this was Taleworlds first ever game and being a Turkish company doesn't give them the same resources as lets say BioWare,Total War or Bethesda which could of made a game like this, but didn't

[TheKhergit]

Because they knew they would of failed, Taleworlds didn't and have gave us the amazing gameplay they debuted to us in Mount & Blade, and with continual support this game will continue to grow and develop, you want better graphics and developer team, buy the game, shut up and be patient new companies need time to expand and gain resources, this game will continue to improve, and i for one will be pre ordering ASAP,

[FEAR709]

ure right exspecialy about the aiming-its terrible

[kurak1992]

warband will be a piece of shit. it will be medieval "Call of Duty Multiplayer" no more rpg, just join n fight.

[ljfhutchinson]

Beta rocks :) Warband really is the greatest game ever created ... ever. Long live Armagan!!!

[nightsinder]

When does it come out?

[PCgame4life]

Multiplayer is gonna be really fun! CTF ftw.

[GaladhrimArcher]

Gate Houses! FINALLY! yay for M&B... best melee game EVER... Commanding in Multiplayer... even more Epic... Can't wait for this! So many good games coming out

[Roibeirt]

I can't wait = )

[Helmer1134]

Been loving Beta. So much potential for the core combat Warband has introduced.

HOBOHAIL!

[swervbe]

The beta is great fun, I don't think there is a more satisfying moment in gaming than burying your axe in an archer who has been killing you a few times before you managed to get inside the castle.

[Zowi121]

Beta is very good. Good job Armagan! 5/5

[PsykoOps]

*Bows* to the allmighty. They should've had a text or something that says that the footages used were from old versions.

[larvinc]

I'm more interested in new stuffs in the single campaign.

[iniudan]

@larvinc Yes here also, but hey for me it might be a multiplayer that beat TF2 finaly. =)

[iniudan]

Been waiting for this even before it was announced and until it is release all the promotional stuff is just taunting for me. Come on March arrive (that the mount it suppose to release if I remember right).

[puzin]

*month(?) :p

[iniudan]

@puzin Yes, has you can see the game has took control of my mind so that I mispell word in it favor. Think I need an tin foil hat to protect my mind. =p

[puzin]

lmao x) i thought that was it :p btw to play this online....you just need to buy the game or you have to pay any subscrition? i've played the original Mount&Blade but it was downloaded and never played it online...

[iniudan]

@puzin Just need to buy, they use a dedicated server system from what I know, so it work like all Valve mupltiplayer games on that point.

[puzin]

cool......might buy it then :p thanks
