So what do I think?
The gameplay has changed and it's taking a bit to get used to. Such a change is having a guy with a halberd get to attack twice instead of just once previously. This tends to feel like using certain abilities almost mute. Have yet to play against my brother, but versing the CPU is pointless. Unless your warband is untouched, your going to have a huge advantage versing them. Previously my warband rating comparison was only just a few points difference, but now it's almost fifty or more now. It seems that defensive measures aren't as effective as they use to be, particularly if your opponent is just going to use weapons that ignore dodge and parry.
That said, the search function has now been added. While this doesn't help your warband in the slightest after the game, it does add an extra objective in the match itself. The two games I've played using it both used the search function, but slightly differently. The first was to recover four items, held by four of my enemies. The second was to collect 70% of the Wyrdstone on the map. The first one I won by collecting the four items, though the second one I won simply through routing the enemy. Another thing is that each character has a limited number of spots to hold stuff, so you can't just lob all the collection onto one guy, meaning everyone has to take some of the load and risk the enemy getting it should they fall in battle. I like this and if you don't, just stick with the battleground mode.
I'm still trying to get the hang of video editing. Adobe programs are not the most user friendly at times and I'm not having to watch multiple videos on how to edit the footage. Perhaps I'll get a chance to verse my brother with this new update and record that one. We so suck at being entertaining.
