    I like what they're going for, but It has a bajillion bugs, has that china jank feel, and could use a lot of polish. I hope it's not coming out in 2018.

    I was expecting combat to be a lot better, something like M&B a bit more action. Instead, it is an LMB spam, and the game rewards this behavior.

    Shields don't actually block anything, it just reduces the first hit damage, after the first hit you can't use it anymore.

    2 handed weapons are the way to go. Just spam LMB, no tactical or precision required. Defense is useless, attack first and keep attacking while your opponent is staggered.

    Shame it could have been something. They can't fix the bad design, they will polish stuff after beta but combat will still be the same. They don't even have a forum for people to put feedback...

    I left Tiger Knights because of the same issue, but this game has even worse combat system.

    Bannerlord please.

    Short Bows take a big, steaming dump over 2 handed heroes while shield bros can avoid their headshot wombo combo because they can block while snared and can just force them to waste cooldowns in general.

    Also, shield players can turtle for freaking ever. If you just run up and try to left click spam a turtling shielder with a pike squad using the protect me command, you'll be dead in like 5 seconds.

    The combat in TK wasn't really that bad, it was actually pretty similar to Mount & Blade, I enjoyed it for a bit at least. But I hear what you are saying about the combat in this game.

    Unfortunately. They did not region lock the Closed Beta. So most of the Chinese players who have experience with the game are flooding the Closed Beta and decimating everything.

    I was hoping this would be something to play while waiting for mordhau and bannerlord but the combat is beyond trash, it’s 2018 and they think an outdated stun-lock combat is acceptable, every hit stuns you to a point of being unable to do anything.

    Armour dosent act like armour it just adds your typical mmo points. Animations are very poor and the graphics look 2013 yet it runs with like 10-15fps during combat, super disappointed.

    Like to echo the same disappointed sentiments. Not having an official forum to report bugs on is rather frustrating. I may just be an old man, but tweeting screen shots seems like a poor way to collect feedback.

    Clever things.

    After trying it again a few days later, screw this game. It has the worse mounted combat and stealth I've ever seen in a videogame. Horses are basically fleshy melee tanks and there is no way to interrupt or cancel stealth. Stealth might as well be just invisible invulnerability as the only defense is to huddle up with your units so they can't just take a third of your health with their unblockable, undodgeable bullshit. There is nothing stupider than watching someone just disappear in your face while they're being wailed on.
    Screw riflemen too. Their damage is outrageous considering how easy it is to aim with and how much of a beating they can take.
    And worst of all, the game has that classic asian balancing where level and gear differences are stupidly massive. Nothing quite says screw you quite like having some chinaman who has been playing the beta 24/7 chop down your squad with one volley from his high tier archer unit, get tickled by you, then disintegrate you with like half an attack.
