I just downloaded this game and really enjoy playing it. There is one problem thought, I can't pick up weapons. I hold down the right mouse button and press e when the circle is pointed at the weapon and it still won't pick up.
The circle has nothing to do with the pick up. You have to get really close to weapon. There will be a notice in the top left corner of the screen if you are close enough. But that system is really bad and I changed it for the next update.
I highly enjoyed playing this game. I find that actually being a soldier in a battle is fun, unique and much more enjoyable than just watching the battle like you do in TABS. Being able to change the outcome of a battle in a game by taking part in it rather than just watching is always a welcome feature ;)
Question: Will you put this game on Steam? If not, why? I feel like this game would be quite popular on Steam.
it is a totally different game that shares different physics & game play, JNI will not be happy if his hardwork is mistaken as the replica of another game
I really like this game but I would love to be able to look up or aim with ranged weapons in first person and 3rd person.. Just the aiming is horrible and I love ranged :D
Hey so I had a few suggestions, overall I thought the game was really good but there seemed to be somethings that need to be fixed.
1. Picking up weapons is way to difficult I'm not sure if this is just because e is also bound to shield movement as well as pick up weapons but anyway something isn't quite right.
2 You can only swing weapons at the same angle, you give us such great target with dismemberment and armor making points do less damage/take no damage but the problem is we can't control where we swing. It feels like trying to his a pinata but only able to swing at the same height.
3. The animations are hard to see in first person mode and make it unclear when you are actually attacking
4. a lot of the animations don't make sense with the weapons, its stuff like why would I swing with a spear or stab with a hammer
Thank you for your feedback! The weapon pickup system will be much better and easier after the next update. And I want to change the fight system completely. It should become procedural and the player can control its weapon with the mouse input.
This game is pretty good, However I have a Complaint/Sugjestion.
Custom Battle Loading: When you save or load for the Custom Battles you have to start from My Computer, and locate the save. I would like for the loader to start in the directory where you last left off. This isnt too big of a deal however.
There will be more siege weapons and weapons soon. The content list is extremly long!
Animations should become procedural in the future. Multiplayer is unsure. I can't decide that at the moment, because I first want to optimize the game.
my channel subs almost quintupled from one video of this game at youtube.com/watch?v=WeVNYzgJT98&t=853s. I usually get around 20 views, this one got over 9,000
Above the comments is a big red download now button. A panel will show and you have to click “No thanks, just take me to the downloads“. After that, you have to click on the right version to download it.
What happens before? Do the game really crash? Which OS are you using? Are your drivers up to date? Can you email me the output_log.txt, which is in the AncientWarfare2_Data directory?
Dear, Jannik. Thank you for this awesome game, it's really a fun experience and I see that you probably spent alot of time making it. So, good work! I enjoy it very much, good luck on further development!
I had played the first Ancient Warfare and this one is much better in every way! The first person mode is awesome and i didn't feel invincible like in the first game!
this game mode is about conquering every country on the land, there is a map of the land with different kingdoms, u then select to attack other kingdom to conquer, once u conquer every kingdom u win.
Love the game and the potential it has to be something awesome! Not like it's not already. I thought I'd make a video over it, might play through the rest of the campaign if people want.

Hi, I'm glad you like it. And yes, I will put the game on steam, but I have no time to do that at the moment, but I will do that soon.
is this like TABS
it is a totally different game that shares different physics & game play, JNI will not be happy if his hardwork is mistaken as the replica of another game
Yep
how do you change range of ballista
You can't. The ballista shoots as far as it can.
Hi im new on this site and i really enjoy this game :D
Good to hear that!
will you add a jump function to this game later?
I'm not sure, but it's on my list. I have to create the new fighting system first.
this game would be more good if it was for free
It's pay what you want, so you can download it for free...
This game is great, just look read the actual text.
I really like this game but I would love to be able to look up or aim with ranged weapons in first person and 3rd person.. Just the aiming is horrible and I love ranged :D
I'm glad you like it! And I will work on the aiming soon
try pressing "C" it will make your camera to first person

Hey, nice game. I just had suggestion, can you put slow motion in the game?
In the spectate mode, there is a slow motion slider. Maybe I can add this to the other gamemmodes too.
i kno im asking alot but will there be multiplayer and ne animations?maybe even new weapons and siege weapons!btw love the game.
There will be more siege weapons and weapons soon. The content list is extremly long!
Animations should become procedural in the future. Multiplayer is unsure. I can't decide that at the moment, because I first want to optimize the game.
k but can u tell me about how much time will you need to imploment all things on the list and will it be done in 2017?
i kno im asking alot but will there be multiplayer and ne animations?maybe even new weapons and siege weapons!btw love the game.

That's cool, I'm glad that the game could help :D
Yeah!
Hey I really enjoy this game and just to let you know loads of major youtubers are playing it!! Youre getting tons of publicity!!
Hey, I'm glad you like the game. And the publicity is awesome. I just don't understand why the game isn't in the itch.io top list...
The first part has less downloads and views but has a higher rank.
Im not saying they are bad but in the next update maybe you could improve the Fighting animations
I want to replace them with procedural stuff. At least I'm going to try it.
When will the next update be?
And what will we be expecting?
I will post the devblog with more information this afternoon.
My target is to release the next update on 17th December.
Content:
-Improved controls
-Adjustable keys
-Bugfixing
-Improved UI
-Levelbundles or new units/buildings
will there be any new controls for mac?
Yes, you will be able to choose your own controls.
Thanks
I made a map. Kill the red king! The floor is lava!
https://mega.nz/#!1lRzATwL!8i7GOUPIkvoHNHTUQMTCHoRge7Vw1N4MfUAtDrZN6Rk
This map is awesome!
how do I download it!? I don't know the process!!! :{
Above the comments is a big red download now button. A panel will show and you have to click “No thanks, just take me to the downloads“. After that, you have to click on the right version to download it.
there needs to be bigger screen resolutions
Ok, I will add an option for using the maximun screen resolution.
thank you
Thank you for sharing. I'm trying to watch all videos
THE CAMPAIGHN ALWAYS CRASHS FOR ME
What happens before? Do the game really crash? Which OS are you using? Are your drivers up to date? Can you email me the output_log.txt, which is in the AncientWarfare2_Data directory?
Email: janniknickel.info@gmail.com
I'm creating a YouTube video on this game and i really enjoy it i will leave the link once its fully uploaded!
When i start the game it says Ancient Warfare simulator 2 and then the screen becomes blurry what to do?
Sounds like a unity problem... Which Os are you using? And which screen resolution?
windows, 1920×1080
try bringing the resolution down 1 setting, that usually works for me
Or check if your graphics card is up to its latest update
As wolfmutant said, it seems like one of your drivers isn't up to date. I'm using the same Os + resolution and all is working fine.
If you want, you can send me the output_log.txt, which is in the AncientWarfare2_Data folder, so that I can see what isn't supported.

how can i start the first campaign level becouse i try every button but nothing works
you move your mouse courser over it and press left mouse button
nevermind i didn't know becouse the screen was too small
i cant run the game
When i try to run the game it says mono error
Please help
Sounds like the data folder is not beside the .exe
Make sure that you extracted the game before launching and that you don't change the directory structure.
thanks for the help
still doesn't work
i tried redownloading the game but it still didn't work
Which Os are you using?
windows
But dont worry it works now
What was causing the issue?
hi! i am new i fuentes instal this game but i wach it on internet i have an idea add birer castro and option to make a mao for your self
Dear, Jannik. Thank you for this awesome game, it's really a fun experience and I see that you probably spent alot of time making it. So, good work! I enjoy it very much, good luck on further development!
Thank you for your words sir! I'm glad you like it.
I had played the first Ancient Warfare and this one is much better in every way! The first person mode is awesome and i didn't feel invincible like in the first game!
Thank you for your feedback and for sharing your video!
conquest mode:
this game mode is about conquering every country on the land, there is a map of the land with different kingdoms, u then select to attack other kingdom to conquer, once u conquer every kingdom u win.
Cool idea! I will think about it.
How do you make hwacha and catapult shoot further
R and F
thanks
my third time giving ideas:
1. cross hair for melee mode
2. more melee weapons: dagger, scythe (grime reaper type), club, falchion, cleaver, flail, halberd, nunchucks, knuckles, boxing glove, metal claws, pickaxe (just for fun), spoon (also for fun), whip
3. siege weapons: battering ram, cannon
4. extra: battle dogs
5. also, horse seems too weak, dont know why
6. small bump/hills in custom battle for realistic design
7. set a limit to amount of unit in gladiator arena cause its too laggy for me after 40 kills, or make it round base to reduce lag
8. release the game on steam to gain attention from youtubers like jacksepticeye
Thank you for all the great ideas. I will implement a lot of them.
Love the game and the potential it has to be something awesome! Not like it's not already. I thought I'd make a video over it, might play through the rest of the campaign if people want.
