    For a Chivalry DLC, this pretty much offers anything you could want from first person slash and dash game.
    6 different character classes to play, each with unique weapons, pros and cons with them. Very enjoyable and fun. Only downside is the chat box, that is filled with 10 year old Call of Duty players.

    Try to keep in mind that I really love the original game, despite its flaws and bugs, but this DLC/X-Pack really ruffles my feathers. First off the Devs originally stated that they would be releasing all future DLC content for free, but I'll let them slide on that since this is a licensed IP (Deadliest Warrior from Spike TV).

First off the Devs originally stated that they would be releasing all future DLC content for free, but I'll let them slide on that since this is a licensed IP (Deadliest Warrior from Spike TV). Next we have the fact that they didn't bother fixing a number of bugs from the original game that have been present since beta (Server List Bugs anyone?), yet they took the money given to them to work on new content that they can monetize. Even then, I can almost forgive that, seeing as how they need to make money and all that. The final straw being that the DLC just isn't that good.

    You would think with all the time and resources they took away from patching the base game, they would have at the very least made the DLC as good as the original game.... You would be wrong however. The game doesn't include Team Objective Mode (basically the primary game mode for the base game that actually has some semblance of a story), the netcode for hit detection has actually gotten worse, ranged weapons don't actually fire on the cross-hair (for example, the samurai's bow always fires low and to the right), and the ranged weapons feel like they have no relevance in the game any longer.

    On the upside, everything feels faster and smoother.... Unfortunately that is about it, other than having more weapons to play with.    … Expand

    The gameplay is an 8.5, the biggest downside is that there is no Team Objective game mode, but there are not a lot of "pro players" that do crazy drags and rainbows. The game can be frustrating at times, but when you get the hang of it, it is quite fun. However, the technical bugs lower this game's value; expect alt-tabbing to always crash the game or even your computer, also expectThe gameplay is an 8.5, the biggest downside is that there is no Team Objective game mode, but there are not a lot of "pro players" that do crazy drags and rainbows.

Still though, this game is great fun, especially with friends.… Expand

    Deadliest Warrior was a cool idea, but wasn't what I expected. The guns are impossible to use, and it's even harder than Medieval Warfare. I got it when it was only a dollar, so I'm not super upset about it, but I usually just stick to the Medieval Warfare, it's just more fun to me.

    ( I have almost 900 hours in Chivalry Medievel warfare and around 300 hours in Deadliest warrior)

    I like both games very much. CMW is more for competative players. CDW is good for new players that want to just get into the battle as a spartan and LMB spam until they die. Sure there is more classes in CDW but there is ALOT more wepons in CMW in total. In CDW every class has like 8 wepons    ( I have almost 900 hours in Chivalry Medievel warfare and around 300 hours in Deadliest warrior)

The combat system in CMW is better in my opinion. There is actual stamina management. In CMW if you constantly hit someones shield he will run out of stamina and die from your attack but in CDW that's not the case.

    CMW - more wepons, maps, TO, customazation and so on
    CDW - More classes but less wepons and there is balancind issues    … Expand

    If you liked the description or screenshots from Chivalry: Deadliest Warrior, better buy the original game - Chivalry: Medieval Warfare. And if you already have it, then simply move along.

    Plenty of diverse classes and tight combat makes up for a lack of game modes. If you already have Chivalry: Medieval Warfare, Deadliest Warrior is a fun expansion pack that offers a welcome change of pace from the main game if deathmatch-oriented matches are in your wheelhouse.

    Slapstick dismemberment is fun for a while, but Chivalry: Deadliest Warrior has neither the depth nor the polish to stay in the fight for long.
