You need to be patient tho, as a peasant you will not get many kills and will die many many times. | ||

Adds quite a few nice features that help you progress smoothly, like having the opportunity to invest in local business in any town/city that you go to, for example. | ||

It's a great addition to the Mount and Blade franchise. I feel like it's added a level of strategy to the game, instead of just getting to level 25 and chopping up 60 guys all by yourself. They added guns, but I don't feel like they are OP. Even though they do a lot of damage if you actually manage to hit someone, they take like 10 seconds to reload. I pre-ordered it during the sale, and me and my friends love it. I recommend it to anyone who enjoys mount and blade. | ||

Do you think it's fine for someone who hasn't played the vanilla M&B to jump into Warband? And is there any point in playing the vanilla if I buy Warband? | ||

It's a lot more challenging than the previous games; and I wouldn't say that those were easy either. Guns aren't OP, they do just about the amount of damage you'd expect from them  . However, I would say that it can make the game a bit frustrating if someone just gets a lucky headshot on you from miles away and your AI buddies aren't really up to the task of winning by themselves.It's a shame there isn't an option to switch control to one of your party, after you die. Although maybe that would remove some of the challenge.. | ||

So i would actually recommend just skipping vanilla alltogether since this game dosen't really revolve around story and its simple to learn. Also you should try out some mods since they make the game way better imo. Think the one i use is called diplomacy and conquest, it adds alot diffrent things to the game making it much better. | ||

However, I have to say that I didn't really like playing the single player portion of the game as I didnt really know what I was supposed to be doing at any point. Although, im pretty sure i was just doing it wrong. The real great thing about MB:WB is the multiplayer content in my opinion and is what I've spent most of my time doing. Just debating whether or not to get Fire and Sword now though, or wait until the price drops. | ||

Although maybe that would remove some of the challenge.. I think the missing real levelling of your troops (except for the veteran thing) really hurts gameplay. Also, in warband i loved forming my own faction after a while and making my heroes vassals, but now it doesn't seem possible. The city upgrading is tedious, too. It's also quite annoying that on many castles, your troops stop on the top of the ladder and don't move further in, even if there is no enemy on the other side, so you have to get a good engineer to be able to blow up the walls to capture those castles, even if you have far more troops. I think fire and sword will be a nice game after the modders get their hands on it or the developers fix the problems, but currently it's fun in the first hours but when it gets to sieging castles, owning cities, etc. it is worse than warband. | ||

That included extremely racist chat, people standing on the ladders and blocking their own team from getting up to people buying grenades just to teamkill half their team at the start of the round. I think it could be a lot of fun with a good team though. | ||
