Mount & Blade: great free* RPG

[Stormrage]

Weasel, yes, it is an advantage, but I don`t trust any more game developers, even cute ones as a married couple.

2 Things I've found so far:

1. Whenever my character aska a merchant about what should be bought and sold in the town, the game crashes.

2. What is the matter with the Four Ways Inn? Will they put a door in it during a later release, or am I missing something?

1. Works fine for me.
2. I think you can send companions there.

1. Happens, but rarely.

2. You can send your hero NPCs there to wait for you. No door. That's it. It will be upgraded in the future.

This is also one of the top ten most asked questions about the game.

Hm, I'd heard about this game before. Might give it a download when I get around to booting Windows again... Shame that there isn't a Linux binary. Might try it in Wine...

 

[Maniacal]

Try searching the forums on Taleworlds for Linux, do an advanced search to narrow it down to discussion and suggestions forums. There have been a few threads about it.

Thanks.

The first one just happens occasionally, but not today when I played a merchant game.

And now the 2 one's use is much clearer.

I bought the game a couple days ago and am absolutely hooked. My character now is in full black armor and has a party of twelve knights in his party. Great game, thanks for the recommendation Weasel!

Hey all. I don't like resurrecting age-old threads, but this was the only one on the subject of Mount&Blade I could find, and feel the need to rant.

Taleworlds just released their new version 8.00. And it is an incredible letdown. The thing is filled to the brim with bugs and crashes, and all they can tell you is "wait for the patch." This destroyed my faith in small game companies, because a big company could never get away with such a shameful release.

 

[Maniacal]

What? What bugs? What crashes?

It REQUIRES DIRECTX 9C by the way, unlike past versions.

I was going to ressurrect this thread but I got lazy...

Version .800 as made a much needed graphical update, also the modding tools will be released soon. WE HAVE BOWSTRINGS NOW! SHEATHS FOR SWORDS!

i've played both M+B and Oblivion today.. Oblivon just CTD for no reason. M+B hasn't.

Okay I ran into an Assertian error, but still. It's a freaking BETA.

I run into assertion errors every 15 minutes. Have you found the Marnid/Borcha bugs yet? How about the multi-party battles errors? The hovering horses bugs? The bridge in Wercheg? etc. etc. etc.

 

[Maniacal]

There's a bridge in Wercheg?

They wil lall be fixed in .801. Relax. You can still download (or if you still have the installer) .751 espcialiy since it'll be a while until there are many mods for .800. You can also install say, .751 in Folder A and .800 in Folder B and .632 in Folder C. Meaning you can play three different versions (not at the same time of course, but whenever you want with no conflicts).

Also There has been A LOT of pressure on the dev team to release, they hinted it would be a few weeks a few months ago and they did delay it a bit too. They'll fix it. I have full and complete confidence in them.


And yes, I'm a M&B fanboy.

 

[Till]

Wasn't this version in development for several months, anyway? It seems strange that they would lose their nerve and rush it out of the door after all this time.

 

[puglover]

Well, they just released a patch, and it renders all battles unplayable. Brilliant.

Hey, v.700 went to .701, .702, .703, .704.

I can't play the game for a week anyways so I am content to wait, plus there's no mdos that have been updated yet anyways.

 

[WildWeazel]

The .802 patch is now available, which is supposed to fix the bugs. I haven't played it yet.

There's an officially-sponsored contest at Chamber of Records (LotR-themed modding forum) for which the prize is a free serial key for the 2 winners.

 

[Maniacal]

O_o Taleworlds sponsors a LOTR site?

 

[WildWeazel]

They don't sponsor the site... Armagan just sponsored the contest by donating the serial keys. I edited the wording of my previous post.

 

[Maniacal]

Oh. That makes more sense.
