Kingdom Come: Deliverance - High Level Combat

[@OrangeDragon04]

I wish I could re-experience the feeling of realizing, how easy this game is. All it takes is to learn and know what you're doing. Like in real life, you can't just pick up a sword and expect to be a knight. You have to work for it and train. That goes outside of combat too. You want to be a master persuader ? You need to talk to people. Somebody who rarely left his home town might not be good at that. I love this game so much words can't express it enough. I visited the in game locations for real with my dad last summer and had a great time. There's only one thing missing for it to be perfect. ... A sequel.

All about them perfect blocks. I can usually take down expert, highly armored opponents in under 30 seconds. I really don’t get all the hate for the combat system.

It's not so much learning how things work, but the game slowly nerfing the difficulty as your combat skills go up. The wobble and draw of the bow, speed of sword swings, combat perks, etc. It's expertly done, and makes players think they are vastly improving their skills, which they are to some extent, but most of the progression of "skill" is built into the game.

[@Stalker950-l3x]

@@yakojjy These things you get to level up throughout the game. Even if it's just "nerfing" it would be like oblivion where you actually DO improve your skills just by playing and doing the certain things. Just like it is in real life, you know. Nothing special.

Always go for a clinch, after a perfect parry use the combo that goes: up, up-right, down-left. Easy way to win combats.

Either that or if you have them stuck in a corner, you can do a very simple combo… it’s literally just clinch, heavy from they blind side, clinch, stab, clinch, heavy swing from blind side. Rinse and repeat and then you can go crazy with heavy attacks if the enemy has low stamina.

I played this game first when it just released and finished it. Then second a couple months ago and something happened in between all those years. They made weird changes to the combat, specifically the lock on system and the way that enemies block your attacks.

The combat does start to show its flaws when you have to fight more than one enemy. But damn this is a lot better than most other games where you just whack the left click until the number goes to 0.

[@asdf-bm4df]

Instead of dedicating the mouse to selecting five different strike angles on that little star reticle, they should've left the mouse for only looking arround- and to aim prepared angled attacks at the enemy model's legs/arms/wrists/throat/armor straps etc. To this, they then should've implemented Dark Messiah's method for selecting these angled attacks while moving- so you can easily adjust to the enemy model's position before releasing them: WASD keys + Power Strike preparation(hold mouse1). Power strikes in Dark Messiah can be held while moving freely until mouse1 is released- and ALT allows precise footwork in the combat space. A+mouse1 = arms move the sword for a swipe to the right upon release. W+m1 = arms lift the sword above your head for a forward thrust. D+ m1 = arms direct the sword for a swipe to the left S+ m1 = arms retract the sword into a prepared forward thrust(too much like W+m1,). Mouse2 is for parrying/blocking and allso lets you seamlessly switch into the different strike stances as you move- without letting your swordarm down. Parry/block animation allso forces the prepared Power Attacks to snap into position(a glitch).

So, before you do the watch with Nightingale in Rattay, wait a day and go back to Bernard in the morning. Quickly go through the last couple training modules (combos ,master strike, etc.) Then do some free training with your chosen weapon until it gets dark. Go rest at the pub down the road. In the morning go back to the training ring and wait for Bernard to show up. Again, free train with him until dark. I did this yesterday. I decided to go learn to read right after. Barely made it out of Rattay before I was ambushed by three Cumans ob the road. First guy gets master striked immediately and dies lol, the other two took a couple more master strikes. I was like "hell yeah, that's what I call training." I do happen to have a 1.5x experience mod installed atm, because I have three kids and a job. I wanted it to be quicker, without actually becoming cheaty.

[@leifdux7277]

Man sword battles must have taken ages cause you would always be hitting armor...

[@jarodburger]

the combat in this game looks great until you realise how janked it is. just master strike constantly, win clinches so you can get a free hit, and feint nonstop. and even when you get a free hit from a master strike, enemy whiff, clinch, or feint there's a 50% chance any follow up attack will just let your enemy master strike you rather than allowing you to continue a combo. Unless any more experienced player can convince me I'm wrong then I'm fairly sure combos, and also any proper use of positioning, are heavily janked and that combat basically comes down to quick time events and abusing game mechanics. whenever I try to position and throw out thrusts from max distance the enemy just closes the distance with a semi teleporting master strike, and on the other hand getting too close to the enemy and trying to get behind them in 1v1s results in clipping into them and your attacks go right through them.

I have managed to win in a 4 Vs 1 against plated enemies by playing mostly defensive. It is possible, but positioning goes from important to absolutely critical, as well as stamina conservation since it is both your shield against health damage as well as your attack energy.

[@peepiepo]

@@reonthornton685 The problem I find is when you're trying to circle your enemy to get a better position, he just moves so damn slowly. It makes it almost impossible to not get surrounded.

[@reonthornton685]

@@peepiepo Well, yeah, that's realistic. To move quickly you can't keep your battle stance up. It's why footwork is so important. Your enemies know this, and they'll be constantly trying to get behind you. You can't let yourself get tied down in one spot, and you will occasionally get surrounded no matter how well you do, because your enemies are also competent enough to understand the importance of positioning. Just remember that sprinting away is usually an option as long as you've been conserving stamina. It'll allow you to reset the playing field if you do get surrounded as they'll have to chase you in a line before trying to do it again. There's always times you just... lose, but the more you do it, the better you'll get at it.

@@utes5532 that was an argument back in oblivion but there there was a chance tha armor magically fit the person wearing it. But o real life ( again kcd main theme) armors were individually fitted , specially the very expensive ones!

[@omegasupream8701]

When war is on armor for the bandit is plentiful. Most bandits are deserters and take the armor with them. 99% of warriors got a stationary armor and was told to deal with it. Fited armors where for the cowards that never fight. Hence why ud never find it in the battle feild. The witcher showed how often a present can come across loot on a battlefield untlill the victor pics it up. The Germanic people of ancient northern Europe defected the Roman 14th and 15 infinity with just Roman equipment found in the forest. And there still finding it. The romans went back 3 4 times and still found things. Plus the Roman's never got the 14th and 15th infinitry back. I mean oblivion was unrealistic with the armor bandits had to about 50%. But that what happens when u only have access to 10 armor sets, and ure playing an unrealistic game lmfoa. Compared to one where any bandit can bang iron and make a 3 layered outfit. So comparing the two was just a bad idea in the fist place.

You meet all sorts of bandits in the game and heavily armored brigands amongst them. I come from Moravia, one of the parts of kingdom in question and I live in a proximity of castle Helfštýn, which was build by a marauding knight. King John of Bohemia had to react and besiege the castle. Helfštýn's case is not isolated. + There was a very lucrative business in stealing horses, which could be crazy expensive back in the day, so people, who stole them could afford better armor sets.

How come everyone always blocks 99% of my attacks? It takes like 10 hours to kill someone or is it cuz of my stats?

[@grainherstal1912]

You need to up your warfare stats. Go pay bernard a visit

[@davidbanner1020]

One on one combat is great fun. Taking on more than 2, the game controls break. It's stupid.

[@cringemaster0606]

0:23 did people say "whats up" in the middle ages?

[@FeeIRG]

Probably not

[@kukuV.3]

God i love this game so much

[@chemloaf3020]

This game was incredible.

[@varjokas2811]

Such graphics for such a small unknown never-heard of game studio.. and such a deep game world. Not sure how they were able to do it but other game studios should take notice. It's sad that the studio has not received the credit it deserves.. maybe im wrong but thats my perception of things.

[@oliverz6581]

imagine in VR

[@StarOasis26]

I shot one of the boss's 10 or so times head shots with a bow and arrow. wow this guy's invincible.

[@crovik7510]

Is the jab with the handle a skill under sword?

[@helenodetroyo7035]

It would be very interesting if this game to be online and people can battle between them and can bet!

[@IraFuse_422]

Is it just me or does the Queen of Sheba sword kinda suck compared to the St. George's bastard sword?

[@sebimanea9919]

5:17 pls can someone teach me to do this move it seems to be verry dificult to do.

[@varjokas2811]

Funny bug indeed😂

[@umloboquedesenha2800]

This game is for the people who say a game cannot be historicaly accurate and good at the same time

[@mcmerry2846]

This needs online

[@thathandsomedevil0828]

Was gonna buy the GOTY edition of this game but this combat skirmish changed my mind... don't think I can be focused enough to cut this one. : /

[@TheSwedishGuy0202]

idk it took some time to master this type of combat in the beggining, but after that I samashed in every opponents face in no time)

[@ningenkiyoki5445]

No Helmet!?! Bro you are doing it the Witcher way

[@VixtroG]

how were you able to get a big skirmish fight against bandits at the last clip?

[@varjokas2811]

It is part of the DLC: Band of Bastards, one of the last quests on it. It is the only way to fight that kind of large group and its just one quest.

[@ralfweber4346]

Arrow. Headshot. End of story

[@KILLSWITCH14FP69]

My combat tip with the mace charge forward get into bind overpower the bind smack head repeat

[@BaconIover69]

Defeating an enemy and not immediately robbing every valuable items seems kinda wrong...

[@jesusramos3426]

me when I was into this game I would talk to the tv I would mind my business then some bandits try to rob me I be like "you dare "

[@russelllanceblance4730]

The combo of left dow , stap,stap is almost impossible to work

[@killeanmcchesney5138]

I pretty much cheated my ADHDwouldnt allow me the concentration it took to learn all the aspects of sword fighting with an Xbox controller so I resorted to being a heavy horse archer instead and just pulled a wengis khan strategy at hit and run archer tactics.

[@Editingpremiere]

how u do that on 0:25

[@varjokas2811]

Its a combo attack, first strike from lower left, second one from upper right and third to the middle. And then it will make that special attack. If I remember correctly.

[@Editingpremiere]

really thanks bro @@varjokas2811
