Good to know the hit detection issues are not just in my head. I've been swinging through people and being hit through my blocks / counters more and more frequently.
@@Tallsauce111 It has nothing to do with the devs but it has al to do with the server ticks. The devs made a great game but if u want to play you need connetion with a server. I think that the party that payed the devs dont wan't want to pay for more server ticks for a game that doesn't get sold almost anymore and keeping crying to a dev team on youtube is not gonna fix it but in fact u are killing the game with bad publicity so nobody wants to play. The devs did there best but it is not in there hand its a client server thing not a dev thing!
@@user-gq9qh2kw6h idk man the devs definitely gave up on this game. There’s so much potential in this game there could’ve been an amazing campaign or RPG mode with boss fights, where you would actually have to learn how to fight instead of going to duels and getting killed by megasweats who’ve been playing this for 10 years. I’m telling you the fault is partly on the devs. They made a great and addicting game, and proceeded to abandon it.
we actually found the difference between the mace and the Morningstar! the stab on mace is slightly faster, while the combo speed on the Morningstar is slightly faster.
Mace may be my preference then with this knowledge. Do we know how many MS faster? I typically like to stab with Mace/MS because it's generally a good option when you want to get a little bit more distance out of those weapons.
You touched on a really good point with the shield there. When actually fencing with a shield or buckler, you basically never move the shield away from the area you’re trying to cover. When you attack, you attack in tandem with and around the shield. I imagine the reason most games don’t work like that is because being able to attack and block at the same time would be op. (Shout-out to Dark Souls where some spears do however work like this)
Just wanted to say thank you for all of the work you did to put your videos together. I have had your initial combat guide on a loop for the past few days since I found your channel. Love your style mate
What are the chances of putting together a promo team? Playing with group tactics and a heavy focus on fighting discipline, battle lines, and coordination etc. It would be highly ambitious but doable with team of good players. Give the community a show. Is this a thing?
@@w.i.z.a.r.d.s.studios4466 I would love to see something like this, you should ask him again under recent videos. Playing medieval games in actual combat formations sounds fun, at least to watch.
I'm a engineer main,aggressive sledgehammer. That stamina drain and getting in people faces can break a whole push. And that overhead coming out so fast. Throw in some sweeps and be the cleanup crew as well
Awesome video, love the thoughtfulness of every weapon. Dagger is pretty much the only weapon I use in every game mode, mainly FFA. It can be a beast with those specials though, definitely a gimmicky weapon that with time can be a strong pick.
Playing Chilvary is immersive but playing it with Ziggy or other professionals that have mastered the game will just make the game next level. Great job!
I don't play as often anymore, but when I do, it's usually ambusher with the dagger and hatchet, unless I really need to make a strong push or fight the entire enemy team alone. The hatchet exists for team fights because its only slightly worse than the one-handed axe, and the axe is a strong, versatile choice. Very good light attack spam when they're in your face. I might switch it for the short sword if I'm having range problems on ambusher. The dagger can be very sneaky in duels. It was the one weapon where I thought that I could be better than you while watching. You have good mix ups and you know how to use specials in regular combat, but the dagger activates something deep in my brain. I don't fully know how, but I can sneak hits on anyone with it. I'm literally Benedict Cumberbatch waving his hands around when I have the dagger. What I'm trying to say is that there is a hidden depth to the dagger which often goes unappreciated.
I absolutely agree. The amount of not fixing is insane and the updates are also really slow, we’ll not “fixed” mainly. Feels really random and don’t know what to expect. And at points the game feels tedious. Hope the devs actually takes notice, tries to make the game fresh and more enjoyable, by the least, fixed. Before then uploading other content definitely makes sense and I can’t promise I’ll watch all of them but the ones I take interest I will make sure I do!
I experimented a bit with some weapons I'm not used to thanks to this vid for inspiration so I would give some thoughts. Glaive on poleman: Difference is as you say, the sprint attack makes all the difference in a conventional fight from afar. Raider has the jump attack but it's hard to aim compared to the sprint attack on poleman. These attacks along with throwables are initially used to soften the enemy. It means more if you land one then it means you wouldn't have too much of an issue to kill your target as you have less hits needed to land a killing blow. Glaive is lacking on the damage and stamina damage department but the sprint attack remedies it. Cudgel: Really weird weapon where it's like the glaive but without the length. You need a lot of hits to kill Vanguards but less so with Knights and Footmen. I personally wouldn't take it and would pick the shortsword every time purely for quick cleaves to control mobs but generally felt like a weapon when people have a tendency to run into trouble with Knights and Footmen but don't care about the other two classes when they're in danger. Makes a lot of sense, as a archer you're more likely to deal with either of them or a vanguard so you want a weapon to kill higher health enemies that's much harder to deal with of the three. HL Sword: Most of my successes with it comes from ganking. That 100 overhead on the side of the enemy can down them easily provided that they're fighting someone else. I don't like the special at all but it's a nice mixup if you are suddenly surrounded and just give it a try to hope for the best. It deserves to be it's own thing, they should add more dmg to the lights but leave the heavy damage. When swung at light attacks, it should be more worthwhile compared to the greatsword. That being said, I think it has a strange stamina game like you said, it swings so slow that you recover stamina. But on the defensive against a fast enemy, I think that slow swinging can be detrimental if they stay on your face. Greatsword has similar but less difficulty because even though it's slow, it's still managable at that speed. The only thing I would change is simply boosting the light swing and stab dmg by 5+. If messer has 55 dmg on lights, I don't see why HL sword shouldn't be compensated for it's slow speed for that dmg.
I watched your guide on how to get good at the game and it’s helped me out tremendously, so when I see you in game, I on occasion will give you a higher priority to fight just because I like seeing you be good at the game. I could stop though if that’s annoying.
I main war club and absolutely love it. A lot of people would complain that the war club is cheap, but I found that it requires you to fight with an unorthodox style and a lot of players just didn’t know how to deal with it. Only in dueling though. I’m better than most at dueling but I suck at everything else.
Using the new Dualsense Edge 🤤 I can now bind my controls to any button i want!!! I love edging especially when i have different games that i can assign different control schemes to
The only saving grace with the ambusher is you can grab any weapon on the battlefield, and your throwing knives will automatically come out with your secondary. You basically become a semi raider with 7 knives, pretty deadly if your just probing the frontlines.
really fun just watching base gameplay. i tend to get burned out rather quickly nowadays so this is great. on the topic of camera position, i wish there was a mode that limited to first or third person (prob more towards first). maybe it would make people play more conservatively now that they dont have the same level of peripherals. I used to only play first but now mostly play third, but a first person only mode would be neat
Awesome video Ziggy! Love your take on my most played weapon, the highland sword. If it came with warhorn it would see more play I'd bet. People (myself included) are obsessed with their scores. Probably why everyone calls it a worse GS. lol
8:40 This is what I use to do on free for all matches on chiv one. Just running around. Screaming “KILL THE ARCHERS” or “LIGHT THOSE PYRES” like i’m some psychotic fiend and I look so concerned, like there’s something that is going on that they are unaware or. I usually get a couple guys also equally concerned and start wanting the others to “light those pyres” that doesn’t exist.
I'll watch whatever you play, with that i really like this game which is the reason why i encountered you in youtube and made you my favourite Chivalry 2 player, i really wish that you dont quit this game, even if you quit i really look for some of this game every now on then on your videos! Keep up the good work !
This video just reminds me how some weapons like two-handed hammer, short sword and hatchet just exists. Like you can use them but you're too busy using a real weapon. If they were redundant or just inferior versions of a weapon then just give them something else to make them more meaningful. They should be faster or have some special property so there is a reason to choose them over others.
The problem is that 2hh and Shortsword are also "good" weapons. Making them better (or more meaningful) can put them into the realm of overshadowing others. 2hh is a worse version of heavy mace, completely redundant, but it's also still really fucking good.
Damn, that executioners axe 1 v 4 you pulled off was sick. I know you didn’t kill all of them (but you still survived) but it goes to show that positioning/movement is such a useful thing to master other than spamming side-step 😂 I also like how your archer is only 25. That shit takes a long time to grind.
I can never tell what team someones on if they wear that full grey Mason knight skin on Thayic Castle It sucks to see this game go on life support like this but I’m glad you’re not afraid to admit it. Battlepass was an obvious last ditch attempt to squeeze money out from us
Great content and great pointers on all weapons. You are doing a lot of crouching and attacks. I don't do it all the time but maybe I will start doing that. This is the only game that made me fall out of my chair lol..
I agree thayic makes it really hard to see with all the high contrast lighting. Half of the time i have issues telling friends and enemies apart. If it wasn't for that, I think the map might be just fine.
@@Tallsauce111 True I think it depends on the skill level of the other team also if they have a spear or not because otherwise you can just keep doing overheads and dragging heavy slashes
There is ONE more difference between the mace & star. The morningstar has slightly more range meaning if your standing up and throw and overhead directly down it will hit the floor whereas the mace will not. Wish they buffed the mace to have the same reach as the star for that very reason
as for the consensus question, ya its hard to see indoors. The lighting can be really wonky on some maps especially the nighttime desert one. One of several reasons I dont like Aberfell
as a maniac who plays on high ping, the hit box bug is a normal Tuesday for me (in a high ping delay way ofc). And eventually, somehow, I adapted the high ping delay and actually play well enough to not die that much whenever i engage in battle. yes, this is a humble brag, but also to tell everyone that you can adapt these inconsistencies to be consistent. and it didn't take thtat long (for me to atleast) to adapt it. 1 hour a day for a week and that's all it took me to adapt. (ofcourse, torn banner still needs to fix these issues, im not denying that. if they want to make a game, make it playable. not leave it half arsed)
I appreciate that you're keeping it real with the Chivalry 2 situation. Tbh, I barely play it anymore and wouldn't care if you left it, I just watch your shit for the memes. Clobbering kids to calming Morrowind music for 3 hours will hold us over for a couple months 👌
I love this game, but I feel you man, there is something off with it. Especially what you said : attacks that should not hit you do hit and those that you should have landed, do not. Also strange how my parry just randomly decides to not work at times. When you mix this with having, say, a garbage team that gets utterly stomped, it makes you want to quit.
The most annoying thing about Katars is that one needs to put them away in order to access Throwing Knives (hereafter “TK”). That ruins the weapon for me because there are plenty of times when a TK can finish off a retreating opponent or someone that’s healing.
To be honest slowing back the video, when it comes to the Katars you really did miss a lot of hits (it was not the games fault at most times), yet i can understand the frustration of the narrow hitbox.
If you pay a bit more attention and be deliberate with your choices, you'll get better much faster. It also helps to not panic and slash, but to be intentional and block, then stab for example.
I’m glad I’m not the only person noticing some of the servers going to shit, I don’t play on the best connection as is but I’ve played long enough to know how the game works with my connection, hit detection has gotten worse and overall server lag has been pretty trash lately too. Vanguard used to be my fav class and now it’s my lowest level frontline class due to these issues. Not playing Vanguard anymore built my new love for the footman class though, man at arms is far and away my fav class in the game atm. Been playing it almost non stop since level 300
Thanks for the ❤️ Ziggy! Aspiring to be half the rapier player you are lol currently 79th overall with it in chiv stats but the website hasn’t been updated in a bit so hopefully I’m a bit higher once it’s updated
I feel you on this game not getting fixed being frustrating. Now, I don't give compliments often. Infact, I routinely insult people on this site daily for the most slightlest of transgressions but you're genuinely enjoyable to watch and you're knowledgeable about the mechanics about this game so you not playing anymore would be a shame. But I'll support you nonetheless.
Yeah, I get wanting to quit, and to some extent the technical issues also make me want to quit, but I really need some multiplayer melee, and the only alternative is Mordhau, sooo guess I'm stuck here.
On xbox? It will probably be good for about a month, maybe a few. Just be warned that its the kind of game that will just die. Its full of issues, but itll be fun at first.
Has anyone ever had an issue with not gaining xp towards weapons? In game when my weapon levels up I get notified but when looking at my class they remain the same
I have that and it seems to just be visual, I can get weapon skins that unlock at the actual level that I have for them. Like my highland sword shows level 27 but in actuality it's somewhere around 35. Love this game but man it needs a lot of fixing.
53:58 I strategically try to kill the enemy team's best players, because they make a large difference in improving their team's score! Even if i recognize the enemy is a lot better than me, if I go in on them usually I will get some help or hinder that player, all for the victory!
love your videos you play very well you are great at it you carry it in your blood I play terrible but I am rank one hundred and sixty five keep it up champ
As a casual player I never realized the game was scuffed at this point... Kinda feels bad, there is so much potential Anyways that vid was a gold mine of great infos, thanks for the upload, can't believe I watched the whole thing Gl on other games
Thanks for the funny cata tip, gonna ruin some archers days with it! I'm glad to see you put your foot down with this crap, honestly. TB makes me very sad. I'm excited to see what youll play next and I'm immensely grateful for everything you've taught me about Chiv.
Feels unreal that the game has actually been out for 3 years. Even if you were to ignore the mountain of technical issues that's seemingly getting bigger rather than smaller over time, the content that's on offer here simply does not reflect that amount of development time. There's nowhere near enough maps and the few that are there are still riddled with balance problems. The only progression system even available after you unlock all the weapons which only takes a few hours is character customization options, and those are still pathetically limited and now are getting padded with paid battle passes on top of it that contain hardly anything and take 6 months to come out but can be finished in an afternoon. They are 100% planning on just ditching chivalry again for another project that just going to end up being dead on arrival and tank the company. They haven't learned a single thing.

There is ONE more difference between the mace & star. The morningstar has slightly more range meaning if your standing up and throw and overhead directly down it will hit the floor whereas the mace will not. Wish they buffed the mace to have the same reach as the star for that very reason
You are a Lord of War Sir, thank you for your tutelage 🙌
Ziggy from the 2 days I’ve been watching I love you and always will ❤❤❤
Greatsword people: I have the best sword in the game
Me and every other highland sword user: heh mines bigger 😁……also…”GRIFFITH”
as for the consensus question, ya its hard to see indoors. The lighting can be really wonky on some maps especially the nighttime desert one. One of several reasons I dont like Aberfell
2:28:38 This part. 🤣
I have a question, are the standalone servers every server available or is just seaching for a match a diffrent que?
Matchmaking is a different set of servers than the server browser.
I'm gonna watch this all day at work
Using longsword after a bad day at work is a good ole time.
as a maniac who plays on high ping, the hit box bug is a normal Tuesday for me (in a high ping delay way ofc). And eventually, somehow, I adapted the high ping delay and actually play well enough to not die that much whenever i engage in battle. yes, this is a humble brag, but also to tell everyone that you can adapt these inconsistencies to be consistent. and it didn't take thtat long (for me to atleast) to adapt it. 1 hour a day for a week and that's all it took me to adapt.
(ofcourse, torn banner still needs to fix these issues, im not denying that. if they want to make a game, make it playable. not leave it half arsed)
1:45:14 Letting the enemy kill the archer.
Chad move indeed
You seem so much more positive now than before, very good bro ❤️👍🏻
I appreciate that you're keeping it real with the Chivalry 2 situation. Tbh, I barely play it anymore and wouldn't care if you left it, I just watch your shit for the memes.
Clobbering kids to calming Morrowind music for 3 hours will hold us over for a couple months 👌
console can go between 1st and 3rd with a button press as well, very easy as well :)
I love this game, but I feel you man, there is something off with it. Especially what you said : attacks that should not hit you do hit and those that you should have landed, do not.
Also strange how my parry just randomly decides to not work at times. When you mix this with having, say, a garbage team that gets utterly stomped, it makes you want to quit.
Big sord go *metal pipe falling SFX*
I met you in game. Let me tell you that you were the hardest mf to kill lol !
The most annoying thing about Katars is that one needs to put them away in order to access Throwing Knives (hereafter “TK”). That ruins the weapon for me because there are plenty of times when a TK can finish off a retreating opponent or someone that’s healing.
To be honest slowing back the video, when it comes to the Katars you really did miss a lot of hits (it was not the games fault at most times), yet i can understand the frustration of the narrow hitbox.
Its hard to hit with combined with poor hit detection.
I have no idea how to play correctly, but I’m hooked. Sucks to be at the bottom all the time tho
If you pay a bit more attention and be deliberate with your choices, you'll get better much faster. It also helps to not panic and slash, but to be intentional and block, then stab for example.
im pretty good at ambusher. its always hit and run from behind. i never 1v1 with ambusher unless i know none of the enemy will butt in
I’m glad I’m not the only person noticing some of the servers going to shit, I don’t play on the best connection as is but I’ve played long enough to know how the game works with my connection, hit detection has gotten worse and overall server lag has been pretty trash lately too. Vanguard used to be my fav class and now it’s my lowest level frontline class due to these issues.
Not playing Vanguard anymore built my new love for the footman class though, man at arms is far and away my fav class in the game atm. Been playing it almost non stop since level 300
Thanks for the ❤️ Ziggy! Aspiring to be half the rapier player you are lol currently 79th overall with it in chiv stats but the website hasn’t been updated in a bit so hopefully I’m a bit higher once it’s updated
Very sweet of you.
I feel you on this game not getting fixed being frustrating.
Now, I don't give compliments often. Infact, I routinely insult people on this site daily for the most slightlest of transgressions but you're genuinely enjoyable to watch and you're knowledgeable about the mechanics about this game so you not playing anymore would be a shame.
But I'll support you nonetheless.
Thank you.
@@Ziggylata No, thank you for all the useful tips over the years.
U should rank the pickup- able weapons next lol
You can’t upload a 3 hour video the night before my exam because be sure as hell i’m gonna watch it fully anyway
Yeah, I get wanting to quit, and to some extent the technical issues also make me want to quit, but I really need some multiplayer melee, and the only alternative is Mordhau, sooo guess I'm stuck here.
Take a break from the genre. If you're on PC, try out Exanima.
ziggy mordhau came out on xbox would you suggest it for someone who enjoyed chivalry
On xbox? It will probably be good for about a month, maybe a few. Just be warned that its the kind of game that will just die. Its full of issues, but itll be fun at first.
@Ziggylata welcome to the ultrawide league - there is no way back from this beauty)
I've gone back from the ultrawide.
@@Ziggylata You've broke the law again)
2:45:05 bro what the hell?!?
The Entire enemy Archers were there
3 of them !! Insane
examina is amazing but i suck so bad at the game but literally love it
The oblivion music background
Has anyone ever had an issue with not gaining xp towards weapons? In game when my weapon levels up I get notified but when looking at my class they remain the same
I have that and it seems to just be visual, I can get weapon skins that unlock at the actual level that I have for them. Like my highland sword shows level 27 but in actuality it's somewhere around 35.
Love this game but man it needs a lot of fixing.
The fact that you spent even a minute on archer shows a ridiculous amount of dedication. I'm not sure I could shame myself just for content.
53:58 I strategically try to kill the enemy team's best players, because they make a large difference in improving their team's score!
Even if i recognize the enemy is a lot better than me, if I go in on them usually I will get some help or hinder that player, all for the victory!
love your videos you play very well you are great at it you carry it in your blood I play terrible but I am rank one hundred and sixty five keep it up champ
Practice will get you where you want to be. Keep in mind what you're messing up and why you are, and you'll improve faster.
Ziggy, I realized something. You didn't do fist and shield only in this video. Captain Agatha has a bone to pick with you.
As a casual player I never realized the game was scuffed at this point... Kinda feels bad, there is so much potential
Anyways that vid was a gold mine of great infos, thanks for the upload, can't believe I watched the whole thing
Gl on other games
check out "In Celebration of Violence" !
It took a while but i watched the entire vid, i'll definitely stay just dont forget about us youtube folks :c
Thanks for the funny cata tip, gonna ruin some archers days with it! I'm glad to see you put your foot down with this crap, honestly. TB makes me very sad. I'm excited to see what youll play next and I'm immensely grateful for everything you've taught me about Chiv.
Feels unreal that the game has actually been out for 3 years. Even if you were to ignore the mountain of technical issues that's seemingly getting bigger rather than smaller over time, the content that's on offer here simply does not reflect that amount of development time. There's nowhere near enough maps and the few that are there are still riddled with balance problems. The only progression system even available after you unlock all the weapons which only takes a few hours is character customization options, and those are still pathetically limited and now are getting padded with paid battle passes on top of it that contain hardly anything and take 6 months to come out but can be finished in an afternoon.
They are 100% planning on just ditching chivalry again for another project that just going to end up being dead on arrival and tank the company. They haven't learned a single thing.
Yep.
Whats that game called he says in the beginning that's his fav game? I cant find anything on it so i prob misspelled it?
Probably Exanima.
