      @mikesavage8793 5 лет назад +10

      Ah, that was a famous design of Viking crossbow bolts, spring-loaded retractable fletching.
      What I noticed first was that it was a hunting bolt, when nocked the head would be vertical so that it would go between an animals ribs easier.

    • @lukasbechtel2401

      but yeah those graphics, who ever originally designed her hair...

    I love the fact that the developers of the game acknowledge the skills you possess and activly try to improve their game by asking you how to make their models more realistic. It's wonderful how they are also willing to support the great works that you do on your channel. One thing I wish they would do is clean up the game a bit. Make the animations work more fluidly, make the resolution of the textures higher, etc. It has promise and I think it will grow

    I started playing vikings mainly to support you Joerg! I played for more than a year i changed 3 clans and i met a lot of nice people. We raided together and we had a nice chatting. It was really relaxing to play and also do other stuff while you were waiting for fights and stuff to happen. The only thing i would change in the game is to make it easier for the new players to start because without help from veteran clan members it is so difficult to play!

  • @Regdiggs
    @Regdiggs 6 лет назад +1

    I haven't been playing the game long so I don't really have a favorite part yet. But I'm definitely having fun playing. I don't know why you put the captions that the builds are boring I find them interesting. It's nice to see how you worked everything out. Learning how to tiller a bow isn't hard just time consuming to get each limb to bend the same and not have one side bent really far and the other barely bent at all.

  • @billmalinky6680
    @billmalinky6680 6 лет назад +4

    Another great build Joerg - Looks really bad-ass! I have also had a lot of fun being a Viking on the game. The best aspect of the game for me is that I can develop leadership skills whilst still using axes. It would be cool to see some of the weaponry in more detail - great game though - can't wait to play it more.

      Lovely crossbow. I downloaded the game and put a bit of time into it already. I love how you can play the game casually and you can log in and set your army to a task or build something and log off for a few hours and it’ll be done when you get back on, or how you can play for a long time and still get stuff done. It’s quite a fun game! I feel that the pay gap is a bit harsh for people who can pour money into the game though to progress much faster and become much stronger. I feel that us lowly noobs who don’t want to spend loads of real currency in game should have a number of options or ways of catching up to the big spenders though. A lot of these in game purchases cost a fortune. I could see people spending thousands if they get too carried away! Anyway, hope to win that sexy ass crossbow. It’s features would certainly be getting shown to all my friends 😄 very entertaining channel btw. Since subscribing I’ve already purchased one of your slingshots and I bought myself a 410fps crossbow. You’re definitely a bad influence on my wallet. Hopefully this game won’t continue that trend! Keep up the good work and fun content.

    Hey Jörg!
    Im a blacksmith from southern Germany (BaWü), the game Vikings is a great source of inspiration for my work. The detailed animation of especially the bladed weapons are great to catch their character for recrearion. I already forged some of the weapons from Vikings on my anvil. Further, im looking forward to see more new weapons to come with future uptdates!
    The historical/logical aspects in the game could really be improved. I like it when games (movies) are made realisticly, just like you did in your analysis of crossbows practucality. Such attention to detail in a broader manner would make the game way more catching and interesting.
    I also hope they are working on a version for PC!
    Greetings from the South!

    This game was laid out and put together quite well. Excellent help menu (use it!). Great graphics. Good customizations for your hero. A lot of side tasks. Huge world. The people playing in the clans appear to be quite helpful. All-in-all, a pleasurable experience. If you don't take the time to learn the game, why leave a bad review? If you like like this genre of gaming, then you will enjoy it. But over all I see a lot of negative comments, but Vikings is definitely one of the best browser games in existence. For those who whine about pay-to-win games, let me break it down for you; the market will always support profitable ventures and 99.9% of free to play games will never be profitable because aside from taking in money from the players, only advertising remains as a source of revenue and guess what...advertisers don't target people with no money. If you can't do the math on that, I can't help ya. Besides, there needs to be pay-to-win games for people like me. People who don't live in their mom's basement eating hot pockets and poptarts for 14 hours a day while they grind away on video games. Some people have to work for a living and just don't have the time for grinding. Having said that, there could be a better balance for most games, because time and money are both investments we can choose to make, but one sad fact of life is that money talks and bullshit walks. So pay up or put on your walking shoes :D.

    • @lilyjune69
      @lilyjune69 6 лет назад

      The top games in existence are free to play, but not pay to win. League of Legends, DotA 2, Fortnite, and so many others are huge. They make so much money. You make a good game and allow players to support the game by buying items that are strictly cosmetic. They give no bonus in game.
      Paying for a video game to play itself also I kind of dumb.

  • @AHumbleStreamer
    @AHumbleStreamer 6 лет назад +1

    First, my entry to the competition! What do I love about the game? The scale. You really feel part of a huge movement, a community. I can't think of another game with so many players and that comes across, especially once you join a major Clan. As for what I'd like to see improved, I feel like there could be more intensity in the micro part of the game. When you're attacking another Jarl's town for example, there's missed opportunity there in making that a thrilling event rather than just a roll of a dice.
    Second, the way you bought the grain out on that Pine is worth its own video Joerg! It's gorgeous, I'd never believe that was simple pine if you showed it to me in a shop.

    • @GiaZera
      @GiaZera 6 лет назад

      jort93z while they are occasionally called arbalists, crossbows are a form of bow, launching from muscle power stored as spring tension. Thus, I would argue that they fit under the category of archers. Slingshots aren't much different either, but that's probably more debatable.

      I am not sure if you can consider a crossbow a type of bow(the german law sure doesn't, german law basically considers a crossbow a firearm), but i guess if you consider a crossbow a type of bow, you could call them archers.
      Crossbows are quite different from bows imo, but they work by the same basic principle so I'd say its debatable if you want to call crossbowmen archers.

    Joerge, how would you like a new trigger mechanism for crossbow which is drop-in and fully adjustable for poundage? Hmmmm? Contact me. By the way, it can be made with simple handtools....it will increase your accuracy....it twas shown to me in the early 80s by a builder of competition crossbows.

    Love the video and that is an really beautiful crossbow you built. I also love how supportive Vikings - War Of Clans is for channels like yours.
    That being said I would argue that she doesn't make that shot at all in the ad... Not only is the shot coming from a weird angle... ITS ALSO CLEARLY A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT FLETCHED ARROW/BOLT!
    Still a great video though. Cheers!

    Another amazing homemade weapon Joerg! Really happy you introduced me to the Vikings Game. I love the strategy involved and that you need to outthink your opponents. As an improvement I think that some of the weapons and graphics should be revised and they should employ you as their chief designer for your creativity, but also for your knowledge and interest in medieval weapons! Thanks!

    • @olinseats4003
      @olinseats4003 5 лет назад

      They did, but not as a prevalent weapon of war. It was a hunting weapon. One of the many variations similar to the Skane lockbow designs. It lacked a rolling nut trigger seen in later medieval crossbows. instead using a simple notch carved into the stock to hold the string with a vertical hole drilled from the notch to the bottom of the body. The bow and trigger were lashed onto the body of the bow with rope. The trigger was a 2 part affair, made from a wedge or lever and a peg. The wedge would be lashed to the stock at one end and hold the peg at the other in the hole drilled through the string notch. You squeeze the wedge and it drives the peg upward into the string, dislodging it from the notch and firing the bow. It wasn't used for warfare because the trigger and spanning system couldn't support the strain from heavier bows, limiting the effective draw weight to under 60 lbs. good for small game, birds, maybe fishing, but not terribly effective as a weapon of war.

    I don't like anything about the game because I have never played it. I would recommend to the developers to make it available on Steam as that is where I do the vast majority of my gaming. If they did that the likelihood of me playing the game would increase. Hopefully this comment will suffice to enter me into the giveaway for the crossbow.

    • @simon8242
      @simon8242 6 лет назад +2

      No, Normans weren't vikings. They didn't raid, they spoke french, they were christian and defended France against vikings. In what way were they vikings? That's like saying if the US uses M416's in combat, then the brittish also uses M416's. because Americans are basically Brittish, right?
      "the Normans were basically Vikings at that time"
      No, the Vikings were vikings at that time, vikings still existed.

    • @thurismundbotheric7598
      @thurismundbotheric7598 6 лет назад

      You're both correct and incorrect at the same time. Normans were French "knights" who were desended frome a group of norsemen who stayed in the much more fertile lands of France, rather then make the return trip to their homelands where it was hard to grow anything substantial. And fyi, a viking was a norse term for a long journey, not the name of their civilization like the romans or greeks since they weren't a unified people.

    • @simon8242
      @simon8242 6 лет назад

      The french kingdom were attacked by vikings, and Rollo got offered land north of paris by the french king to defend against other viking parties, it got named "Normandy" because "norman's" live there now, FOUR generations went by and William the bastard took England by force. William the bastard would never call himself a viking, (he was half Anglo-saxon, half Norman) and nor should we. Because he was a french speaking christian.
      It had nothing to do with fertility of the land, because if it did then they would have stayed in Paris, after they occupied it, which they didn't.
      Normans are not vikings, it's factually false. He is not correct and you say I'm incorrect when you don't even know the history behind the events that happened.
      Even Rollo, a person who was a norse dane(?) changed culture to french and adopted their language and religion. His children were raised christian french speakers and so on.
      fyi "vikingr" means to go raiding, we now use "viking" to mean a person GOING raiding. I never said "vikings" were a civilization, you made that up.

    • @Drago7166
      @Drago7166 6 лет назад

      Simon in the conquest of England a large majority of the French force used was anglo-Saxon and still did the raiding. Just google Rollo and you’ll find a Norman Viking king that conquered France in around 1100. Also the French have never used a gun called the M416. That just a gun from PUBG. I think you mean HK16. In which case the US has used that as well.

    • @simon8242
      @simon8242 6 лет назад

      The Norman forces were indeed made up of a large minority of Anglo-Saxons, but how is that an argument? William the conqueror was HALF Anglo-Saxon, and half Norman, so of course some Anglo-Saxons would unite under him. If he were a Norse viking on the other hand, no one would come and help him.
      Rollo lived in 910~ and wasn't a king, nor was he a "Norman viking king", he BECAME Norman when he abandoned his old religion (Norse) and his old language which practically made him french. he was still an outsider which is why they called him Norman, and not french. You can't be Norman and a viking at the same time.
      Rollo didn't conquer France in 1100 AFTER battle of the Hastings in 1066, because he would have been 200 years or something by then. That is just ridiculous. Almost no Norse people were left in 1100 because everyone converted and stopped raiding.
      I never said the french armed forces uses M416's (I never even said the US does, I said "if"), I tried to make a example as to why your logic is flawed, but I guess it went straight over your head. The exact gun doesn't really matter since the metaphor is about the fact that because some Normans ancestors were vikings you call Normans vikings which is stupid.
      You don't seem to know what you are talking about at all, maybe you should have listened in your history class, or googled what happened before you say such retarded things.

The thing that I would suggest improving is maybe just adding the quests slowly so that it's not so overwhelming all at once. So far though, I really like the game! And your videos of course!
