    Will adjust my score if the issues are sorted. You can't switch matchmaking to only XBOX players, so you get matched with people on mouse and keyboard who have such an advantage. Also if you are on the defending team, 9 times out of 10 you will be defeated due to imbalanced game types

    It's okay but it seriously needs some work on the interface. The customisation menu is terrible and doesn't show any of the subclasses. It's impossible to know just from this menu what weapons you can even use. Don't think I can be bothered playing this game anymore unless it gets fixed.

    Also you can't add/join a friends across platforms. Who's stupid idea was that?

    Dead game, consistent 100 ping in every server while they have auto region, the devs dosen't address these issues, Not recommended to buy instead just buy mordhau at least devs take care of those stupid issues

    Good graphics, but thats all, combat system is terrible, too many bugs hitboxes are very bad, archers are not rewarding enough when you hit moving target. Just avoid this piece of trash

    I wouldn't advise purchasing this game after 100+ hours. The game is full of bugs, some of which are more than a year old and still present since the Beta, developers are non-existent with each update creating more problems than it solves; hot-fixes are rare and large gaps between patches leave major issues unaddressed despite community feedback. The combat system is interesting and hadI wouldn't advise purchasing this game after 100+ hours. The game is full of bugs, some of which are more than a year old and still present since the Beta, developers are non-existent with each update creating more problems than it solves; hot-fixes are rare and large gaps between patches leave major issues unaddressed despite community feedback. The combat system is interesting and had potential to be great but the game is going the same way as Mordhau with massively exploitable mechanics and insanely poor balance across both weapons and classes.

    The game is fun initially but the longer you play it becomes a chore with bugs ruining the experience. Multiplayer parties do not work so don't bother purchasing it you wish to play with your friends, they were added at release and the system is still broken 12 months later which is indicative of the kind of support the game receives.

    Combat can be satisfying but the better you become at it and take the time to learn the intricate nature of it will soon leave you feeling frustrated as you constantly die to idiotically abusable and totally unrealistic movements and spinning, paired with poor hotboxes and several weapons that are so insanely broken means the servers are overrun with 90% of the server using the same 3-4 weapons. This is compounded by cross-play as the console controls are vastly subpar to the PC controls (some combat features not even being available to console players) which results in anyone playing on a console being at a disadvantage to PC players in almost every scenario, especially at higher levels you can absolutely forget trying to compete in the duel modes with a controller.

    Sort the many issues and I would recommend it, as it stands now though the game is below average.    … Expand

    Chivalry 2 is a ton of fun, not overly complicated and will keep you coming back for more.

    Chivalry 2 is a first-person multiplayer experience set in medieval times. One that highlights gigantic battlefields of up to 64 players.

    Chivalry 2 is a great game if you know what you’re getting into. It's not the next big hit, but boy is it fun when you need to get out some frustration and have a good laugh.
