Demo impressions and discussion (everyone please post here)

[Kourutsu]

Alright, everything is going smooth now.

Played Agincourt, no lag at all on medium settings.

I just want to discuss the fighting sequences now. First off, a majority of them are awesome. And very realistic, IE the Zweihanders pushing down their visors and blocking attacks. But there are a few that are just a little out there. Such as the dismounted knights with pole-arms hopping into the air, and then pulling a 360 degree and slamming their weapons into the enemy.

Now, I'm no expert. But I find it hard to beleive that a man adorned in full plate armor can pull off such a move.

Which issue of PC Gamer is the demo in? I just went and looked at the november issue and I didn't see anything about MTW2, where did you guys get that issue by subscription or from store?

It is the December issue, #155... You know how they release the issues a month before, November's in October, December's in November (or even late October)... It is so they can get a Christmas edition in and have 13 issues a year...

Actually if you look in the bottom right of the last page of the November edition (#154) if gives a not so subtle hint about MTW in the next issue...

Well whether he can or not does not add up to whether it would be a good idea or not...

Maybe showing off in a dueling situation (like the re-enactors they copied the animations off) it's okay but in a large melee I would not want to be turning my back on the enemy...

But still, small beans really when everthing looks so much smoother and less mechanical...

I have been spoiled by RTW, see the enemy coming and rushing your men into a good formation just does not seem to cut it here, you need to keep your guys in good order and perpare in advance.
