Also in this patch, a freshly baked batch of community-created weapons and armor:

• Deer Hunter, a replacement for the Light Crossbow by Zelfit
  
  
• Gefjon, a replacement for the Dane Axe by GummiEnte
  
  
• Adeptus Malleum, a replacement for the Polehammer by Oilystool
  
  
• Heavyhead Polehammer, a replacement for the Polehammer by Julio
  
  
• Royal Cock, a replacement for the Zweihander by Frank the Fish
  
  
• Kingmaker, a replacement for the Greatsword by PXL/url]
• White Wolf, a replacement for the Sword of War by Prime8
  
  
• Golden Age, a replacement for the Poleaxe by Es'Kophan and Pernach

This patch also addresses the following fixes.

Changes

Gameplay

• Miscellaneous exploit fixes
  
• Various config file exploits fixed (e.g. removing foliage)
  
• Tournament Mode; only admins can unpause a paused match

Misc.

• fixed inverted normal map on Cold Spectre Greatsword
  
• Fix crash when downloading workshop files if using -nomovie
  
• added new UGC rounds 10,11 and 12!
  
• added Vypress Sabre… must be a member of Mirage Steam Community

Maps/Levels
Coldfront

• reverted accidental change that effectively broke the king objective. Removed bonus time for *completing second objective.

Castle Assault

• added blockers to prevent you from reaching the gate to the king immediately. They are destroyed 10 seconds after the town objective completes.

Citadel

• disabled collision on ash particle and instead added weather volumes to interior spaces to turn off the ash

Cove

• spawn point access blockering, some were quite easy to get into from the outside.
  
• Also some blocking volumes added to prevent a map exploit where players could get inside buildings they aren’t meant to.
  
• Cove LTS - fully blocked off spawn point zones

Forest

• set lightshaft meshes and fireflies to medium detail up from low (will not show up on low detail now). Set fixed bounds on fireflies particle system.

King's Garden

• added blockers during the first stage to prevent you from reaching the gate to the king, preventing attackers from camping the gate before the ram objective is complete to make it more fair to defenders

Outpost

• set owner of first objective properly so when Agatha successfully completes it they are no longer told they failed
  
• tent burning progress bars are now split between left/right tents
  
• changed values on mason chieftain AI settings to not be out of range (which can make the AI act dumb)

AOCFFA-DrunkenBazaar-CM_p

• New! FFA map in the final library area of Drunken Bazaar
  
• Beta note: fixed broken spawns from first beta build

Misc maps

• there was one stair mesh with bad lightmaps which is all over hillside

http://www.pcgamer.com/why-torn-banner-isnt-making-a-chivalry-sequel-yet/

In advance of next week’s PC Gaming Show at E3, we were invited to share our perspective on PC gaming and game development. Torn Banner Studios’ Alex Hayter wrote about why we have decided to create a new IP with Mirage, instead of an immediate sequel to Chivalry.

Here’s an excerpt:

Where’s Chiv 2?

After a huge seller like Chivalry: Medieval Warfare, the most obvious path to immediate success would be for our studio to develop a direct sequel, sit back and watch those 3.5+ million players and their Benjamins roll back in. Instead, the next title from Torn Banner is a magic fantasy action game that’s more Arabian Knights meets Game of Thrones than medieval European fantasy. This isn’t a world of chivalrous knights and kings but flame throwing mages and occult assassins. Gone are the castles and catapults, replaced by Middle Eastern-inspired marble palaces and magic seals.

It’s Mirage: Arcane Warfare—a new first person multiplayer slasher that is much less a direct sequel and more like Chivalry’s magically gifted cousin. By developing a unique new IP, rather than Chivalry 2, our studio is aiming for long term creative and commercial success instead of grabbing at low hanging fruit.
