If you study it you should understand it

That video…

Didn’t take any armor from any bodies. None. Not even a coif.

I sat there watching him walking backwards for 3 minutes against one Cuman. XD Didn’t even try to fight till the last 10 seconds. Gotta ask though, did no one tell the tester that fighting two guys at once was suicide?

I will admit that was a nice battle, but 5 guys just stand in a line. ‘‘Should we help? Naw, our comrades will finish off the Cumans. Let’s just stand here. XD’’

A friend of mine, a backer of KCD KS, says the beta isn’t worth it so far. Of course, you’ve backed the game, you feel more involved and somehow responsible / obliged to give the game a run. He says Beta severely lacks in combat, although he’s hopeful things will improve (finishing moves, counter-attacks from behind, etc., so the game is more fast-paced for different tastes).

I’m positive the devs know the pitfalls of game mechanics gone too far and too complex. There’s been numerous example of that in games industry, so games to learn from are present :slight_smile:

If you buy now, you get the beta now and the final game (when it´s done). The beta is a bonus!
You can always wait for a later.
If you have a good PC and you are fine with some bugs,… it´s time to buy!!!

Unless your friend is a member of the press (or perhaps Illuminatus tier?) they probably aren’t playing the Beta the are paying he alpha. Beta is supposed to release sometime tomorrow.

Beta hasn’t released to anyone but press, regardless of backer status or location. Of course, there may be small internal testing being done, but it’s not given to kickstarter backers.

Beta isn’t out yet, your friend was playing the alpha which is just a tech demo

As said in the Video… this seemed to be a very EARLY version of the BETA… They probably did some fixing in the meantime… At least I hope so :wink:

As far as I know, it is released today, since it is march the 3rd… if my calender works correctly (that silly old-fashioned paper thing… :wink: )

Can’t wait for the Beta release, did they mention a time frame when it’s gonna hit today?

Couldn’t play the alpha for months because of the crimson bug. :frowning:

Beta is supposed to release sometime today*…
