imageChivalry + NS2 Deal on Steam! - Natural Selection 2

The world of game development is diverse and full of studios big and small. It turns out that Torn Banner Studios, the creators of Chivalry: Medieval Warfare, are about the same size. They are also an awesome bunch of people. So we thought it might be fun to throw a little joint party…

    ^ I can recommend Chivalry as well. An extra copy of NS2 too of course.

    I'm really surprised at the size of the response to this. I'm seeing servers flooded with rookies almost as much as with the free weekend. Hopefully a few more of them will stick around this time, but I'm worried about the impression the practically all-rookie games can leave with the new players. If only there were some way to throttle the influx so things didn't get out of hand all at once, but I don't think that is ever going to be possible.

    I'm pondering whether to buy Chivalry. NS2 is getting a bit boring for me with no new maps and no populated mods.

    Man, I didn't think Chivalry was so damn hard. Then again I'm playing a sling archer most of the time... I may be a masochist.

    That graph is obviously wrong. NS2 has not had a point with 0 players lasting longer than a couple of minutes, if that, within the past 6 months. Something is wrong with the way that site gathers its data.

    http://steamcharts.com/app/4920 seems to be more accurate. Here's the last 30 days:

    I would have liked Chivalry a whole lot better if it didn't have persistent unlocks...

    Chivalry is great fun, really enjoy the extreme skill based melee but NS2 is of course my game of choice, getting loads of friends to buy it at the discounted price ^^

    No competetive scene in chivalry made the game boring after you learned to 8dom8 the pubs

    I was going to buy a 4 pack to gift people in but apparently you can't buy a four pack if you already own the game. What kind of bullshit is that?
    Also, how come someone can buy four copies of the game for $10 less then I paid for one copy? :<

    Because you paid for an early edition of a game. Everything goes down in price after its initial release. Games are no different.

    Did your quote fail or did you just do that to annoy me?

    Loved playing some chivalry this weekend! :) I love how they implemented the blocking mechanics, it's a really clever game.

    All my settings keeps resetting in Chivalry. Kind of annoying having to bind all the keys over and over again. Anyone experienced that? The little I've played was quite solid though.
