It's pretty fun. Anyone got the 2player+ on the one PC working?I tried almost everything.If I did try everything I would probably get it by now.
Set a start button?
I set it to enter for player2 on the options thing.Press enter before the game and during the game.Didn't work?

This game has no concept of team balance.  One duke does not equal three enemy players.

Reiterating:  This game sucks, there's no functional team balancing and if one team is behind it just gets farther and farther behind because you have to buy your equipment every round, which can't be done if you keep losing money every round.

In short: Go to hell game, you're a bastard.

If thats happening, then just kill a couple of bots each games and then run past the white line. Or just switch sides

That's what I was doing, and the other team killed my wife. I hate them.

Start fighting crime

I have to say I like the "it's easier to lose if you lose" system better then "if you win it doesn't matter because you don't really get any benefit from it because the enemy has the same chance or greater to beat you" system. It's much more realistic.

Realism is only good when it adds to gameplay.  I would rather have "if you win it doesn't matter because you don't really get any benefit from it because the enemy has the same chance or greater to beat you" than "get ground farther and farther into the dirt with each passing match until the entire enemy team has platemail and long swords while you're running around with a rolling pin and plywood sheet"

But if you kill someone they lose everything. 2 peasants could probably take down a king.

You were the one asking for realism.  That's how it works in real life.  All it takes is holding a guy's arms and shoving something sharp where the breastplate meets the arm-plates and bam.  King is dead.  He lost everything.

Yay! I got on the highscores, mostly by grinding. I'm the red hearts shield. Then of course the following round I died losing everything.  :'(

I just played for the first time, saw someone with a blue Dwarf Shield. I'm the guy with a yellow and red pattern, A diamond in the middle, with lines around it and triangles in the corners.

Anyone else notice there's not a lot of active players on? Most I ever saw was 6, and most of the time when I check the server theres no one on.

It's disappointing, sometimes.  The most I ever saw was 16, which boggles me because this is such a great game.

A battle with that many human players is much more complex.

A game will all human players would be awesome, and far more challenging. Currently in games with not that many people all you do is go around the bots and hit them in the back

As I understand it, bots do gain gold and auto-buy the next title/weapon/armor as they become available, but because of their tactics they usually die within 2-3 rounds, so none of them ever get anywhere

I was wondering why all the bots stayed peasants forever.

I've never seen an NPC with better than cloth armor, ever.  Also, they always appear as "Peasant" in the scores.
