Chivalry: Medieval Warfare

 
Chivalry: Medieval Warfare - Official Server SunsettingMar 7, 2024 - Community Announcements{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/4158188/589765bb50c8b9354f4e31670014fd75f49d4ca7.png Dear Knights of Chivalry: Medieval Warfare, After careful consideration and evaluation, we’ve made the decision that after 12 years of support the official servers for 2012’s Chivalry: Medieval Warfare and its DLC Chivalry: Deadliest Warrior, will be taken offline as of April 8th 2024. This decision was not made lightly, and we understand it may impact those dedicated players who wish to play one of their favorite games. Rest assured that this change won’t render Chivalry: Medieval Warfare unplayable as unofficial servers have been available for players to access since close to launch. The decision to sunset the official servers come as a result of various factors, including dwindling player count since the introduction of Chivalry 2, evolving industry standards, and the need to allocate resources where they could better serve the Chivalry community as a whole. As a final celebration towards Chivalry: Medieval Warfare, Torn Banner Studios staff will be playing throughout the day on Friday, April 5th. Jump on and see if you can strike down a Dev on their own turf. We like to express our sincerest gratitude for the fans of Chivalry: Medieval Warfare and how its success over these last 12 years has helped us grow and achieve greater and more impressive goals everyday.Chivalry 2 is out now on Steam!Jun 12, 2022 - Community AnnouncementsPrepare to return to the ultimate medieval battlefield...

In a concerted effort to include our community in the development process of Chivalry 2, we will be releasing a blog series called Code of Chivalry exploring the creative vision of our upcoming game. We are excited to share details with you over the coming months, and we hope you enjoy a peek behind the development curtain. Today, we’re sharing a prequel to this series, an Edition 0 if you will, reflecting on our past before diving into our plans for the future. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/4158188/f1094995297f08c8df83a998ae7362f72c398bcd.jpg Reflecting on Chivalry: Medieval Warfare Released in 2012, Chivalry: Medieval Warfare’s immediate success blew us away and continued on to exceed our team’s wildest dreams. Almost overnight we went from being a bunch of amateur dreamers, who had pieced the game together while working remotely from all over the world, to the overseers of a hit game played by millions. When it first launched, Chivalry captured a certain kind of gritty, visceral, in-your-face intensity and hilarity that hadn’t yet been tapped into in gaming. Whether you were jumping into the sun-soaked Moor for a quick FFA, or waging an epic siege in the atmosphere-heavy Battlegrounds map, we have heard from many of our players that Chivalry 1 felt like a "moment" in gaming, not just for the melee genre. We're looking to provide the next "moment" with Chivalry 2 by reconnecting with our drive and passion to deliver the best medieval combat experience possible. But first, we wanted to recap how we as the developers view the success and downfalls of our first attempt at this ambitious project, several years removed from its launch. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/4158188/6fdf4af94ddf3f9f669e9b6cd125d13e77136f2b.jpg Screenshot via Dobrota. Here are what we believe are some of the key factors that made Chivalry a success: What Chivalry got right: Upon its launch, Chivalry was well-received as a cult hit and its unique appeal launched our indie dream into the best selling title on Steam throughout the week of Christmas 2012. Sure, it was rough around the edges in everything it did, but it captured a certain special combination that somehow let it become greater than the sum of its parts. This is that combination as we see it: Melee combat - Chivalry’s realtime strikes system brought a new level of control over melee combat that allowed for thousands of hours of mastery while promoting player creativity and precision. The combat system represented a unique blend of an FPS and a fighting game and was our approach to capturing the player fantasy of becoming the ultimate swordsman or your favourite medieval movie hero. It was our goal to draw out the competitive spirit of a warrior in our players. In every life you were up against the odds and had to carve a path through waves of incoming opponents, each time just barely finding a way to survive. This constant onslaught of challenge ...Chivalry 2 getting back to old-fashioned fisticuffsJun 10, 2019 - Rock, Paper, Shotgun The first-person melee murders of Chivalry: Medieval Warfare will resume next year in Chivalry 2, a sequel announced today by developers Torn Banner Studios.

Chivalry 2 is a multiplayer first person slasher inspired by epic medieval movie battles.

It will release on other PC platforms 12 months later, such as Steam. “With Chivalry 2 we want to bring to life the grit and powerful emotions of a cinematic medieval battlefield,” says Torn Banner Studios’ president Steve Piggott. “Learn to master the blade as you lay siege to castles, set fire to villages and slaughter filthy peasants.” Chivalry 2 is powered by Unreal Engine 4 and sees a massive visual upgrade, 64 player maps, larger medieval battlefields than ever before, a revamped and more accessible and fluid combat system, along with new gameplay additions such as mounted combat.

Javelins, arbalests, crossbows, longbows, claymores, zweih nder, broadswords and falchions. Flails, clubs, morning stars, maces, war hammers, battle axes and, of course, longswords. If you ever played a fantasy RPG or one of many historically-themed action or strategy games, you'll already be familiar with an impressive array of medieval weaponry. The medieval arsenal has had an enormous impact on games since their early days, and their ubiquity makes them seem like a natural, fundamental part of many virtual worlds. These items are based on real weapons that have maimed and killed countless real people over the centuries, but even though we're aware of this, medieval weapons have become estranged and distant from their roots in history. Part of this is our short memory; the passing of a few centuries is enough to blunt any relic's sense of reality. Another reason is they were made a staple of genre fiction. In our modern imagination, the blade has become firmly lodged in the rocks of fantasy fiction and historical drama, and no-one will be able to pull it free entirely. Today, these weapons have been refashioned to serve our very modern fantasies of power, freedom and heroism. There's the irresistible figure of the hero-cum-adventurer who sets out to forge their own path. From Diablo and Baldur's Gate to The Witcher and Skyrim, the fundamental logic of violence stays the same. Battles lead to loot and stronger equipment, which in turn allows our heroes to tackle more dangerous encounters. The wheel keeps turning, and we follow the siren song of ever more powerful instruments of destruction. On the surface, they're problem solving tools, but they also promise the excitement of adventure as well as the power to dominate and enforce our will on those fantasy realms. As such, they become fetishised. Extravagant visual detail and special effects signal a weapon's rarity and power, turning them into ornaments and status symbols. While the actual violence in such fantasies is often justified by a struggle of good versus evil, the resulting gore and savagery has also captured our imagination. Most games, even mainstream RPGs like Skyrim or The Witcher 3, can't resist indulging in an aesthetic of cruelty and barbarism by showing us the grisly devastation caused by these instruments of murder. Blood spurting from wounds and clinging on blades, heads and arms being hacked off and tumbling through the air, special killing and execution animations captured in glorious slow-motion. Their gruesomeness markedly contrasts with the sanitised, often bloodless effects of modern guns as portrayed in games, disingenuously suggesting that modern violence and warfare is somehow more civilised than that of our ancestors. Games like For Honor, Mount & Blade, Chivalry or War of the Roses celebrate medieval slaughter with grim nihilism as we hack and slash ourselves through hordes of enemies enti...Daily Deal - Chivalry: Medieval Warfare, 85% OffFeb 9, 2018 - AnnouncementToday's Deal: Save 85% on Chivalry: Medieval Warfare!* Look for the deals each day on the front page of Steam.
