Why are there no sword games like rune viking warlord on the PS2

Why are there no games where you can run around ( Like dynasty warriors) and fight hand to hand combat with swords or other weapons. Maps should be small to have say 16+ players who can also use bows as a default secondary weapon. Or have huge maps with horse riders as well as loads of knights? Basically Call of Duty: Medieval warfare or something stupid. ( CoD was an example) and take the medieval genre away from RPG's and Dynasty warriors style games. [Edited on 04.02.2011 1:12 PM PDT]

  • Multiplayer in those games would be reduced to hack and slash rush games since the only attributes a sword could have would be speed and damage, their range would limit you to just run up to everyone and mash the swing button. AVP shows how hard it is to have a good melee system that doesn't make people rage.

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Frank_Sknaw I guess because it would be pretty hard to have sword fighting mechanics in a multiplayer game. They could try but it probably would be a mess, unbalanced, or not very fun. I would imagine it to be something like Shadowrun where you run circles around enemies slashing your sword until they die. Might have to wait a few generation of consoles until something like this is implemented well.[/quote]It was done well but i forgot the name of the game. You had to collect blood runes to become stronger for a limited time. And you had an Gladiator type arena and both or all players start in a small room and pick their weapons they come and and start fighting. And you could chop limbs off an all sorts it was amazing. No online though :(

  • xD Took me a second to find the name =3 It looks good, some gameplay footage they showed had lag though. Hope they clear that up. Also wish they kept Jack from Mad World all black and white still >.> [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] PR1M3 R1B Fighting or sword-based mechanics are really difficult to implement for a multiplayer environment. That's usually why melee weapons in multiplayer FPSs are difficult to execute correctly. It would be neat though. Anarchy Reigns by PlatinumGames looks kind of like one. It's a multiplayer focused beat 'em-up, but not everyone has swords, look up some gameplay videos. edit: Oh wow, I like the way you think there, Shiro.[/quote]

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Dyane Sword mechanics are very difficult to implement. And there are fighting games. Deadliest warriors comes to mind, but that kinda sucked.[/quote]I don't mean like 1 on 1 but like how we run around a map in CoD or halo, only we have swords and other weapons and horses.

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] UNSCboy No multiplayer, but buy Oblivion, or wait for Skyrim.[/quote]I mean like 8 players vs 8 players in a deathmatch with swords and bows ( And you can unlock other weapons also.)
