Title: Viking Conquest: Reforged Edition Opinions
Post by: Audiate on July 26, 2015, 07:27:46 pm
So pretty recently, Viking Conquest got a 2.0-styled update, supposedly being a direct and free upgrade for those who already owned it prior. It adds a lot to a heavily bugfixed game, including a lot of SP and some MP features. Given that the game now is a much more competent version of what came out months ago, what are your opinions on it? More worth playing now? Would you like to see a MP side come back in full strength?

I got on and played a little bit, it is much better. I would have kept playing but got killed by bandits and RQ'd lol.

An MP revival would be really cool to see, since I think it was really unappreciated at release. I mean, it was broken for a lot of people apparently, but I've heard that's all been patched.

Well of course. Fixing something everyone knew as broken doesn't mean everyone will give it another shot, let alone know it's fixed.

The Official reforged "all modes" server was full with 64 players today, yesterday we barely has 20 so I'd say its picking up  :P

EDIT:
In SP running down routing enemy troops and decapitating an enemy is so suprising yet satisfying

The Multiplayer is like a bad reskinned Native. There's no point in playing it.

I've heard it has more gamemodes, like, way different ones, so I'm not sure where that comes from.

There's a wave mode <--Full Invasion is better.

And

There's a sea battle mode or something. Which last time I played was boring as fuck.
Since people just sailed around in circles using their ranged weapons.
