Also an idea for two maps and two units that go with it: Grand River with a large river that can fit boats and they shoot at the men on the land. Units: Tribal Member (with a hut) that has a unique spear and animal skin clothes, Tribal Chief with a cane that can bop people in the head. Island, where the boats can board the island and attack from there. Units: (idk)
since its close to St. Patrick's Day,i have an idea for a unit:
leparchaun (or how ever you spell it) (has a pot of gold and he throws many small pieces of gold out of the pot at enemies.and when he kills a enemy,they turn into gold.)
also when are you going to put chariots into the game?
see,when you make a game,before realeasing it,make sure BASIC COMMANDS WORK,i've seen games in earliers states that weren't as instable,with perfect controls of units and where hte menus where FINISHED
1.if you have a bad computer dont blame it on the game
2.You can exit the control menu there is a big X in the top right of the screen
3.You can make a castle defence thing dont be so childish and be like ¨oh this one unit doesn't go on the wall I suppose none of the other units can go either¨
4.Do you suppose that in the ancient world the armies were the most coordinated armies in history and this is a free work in progress game so dont expect the AI to be at the level of all the big companies.
Sorry, but I don't need any help with the project. And if you really want to do game development work, you will need to learn at least one topic (Programming, modelling, concept artist...)
maby necromancers in the game or some unit that summons an army very slowly like one or 2 at a time but deadly in hords and they have a magic blast attack magic
wepons for the player id like that but you dont have to its your game not mine
Have you fixed the bug for Mac which causes the game to get stuck after the game starts? The bug where the game name shows up and then the screen is just stuck?
You don't need to in the next update, but sometime, will you add IronClads? And older subs like the Hunley? And, there is a kind of torpedo called a spar torpedo (The weapon on the Hunley) and it rams ships, and explodes! Can you try to add these?
Sorry but there is still no release date. The release date in game can't be disabled... The next update will release in max. 1-2 weeks, because there are heavy changes in terms of performance, graphics and the ocean battles are not 100% finished yet.
If I wouldn't support direct x9 gpus, the update would be ready tomorrow...
that's a cool idea.im 10 years old and have my own computer even though its not very good I'm still older then you :P also you had caps on if you didn't know when you made that comment.
I ligit love this game and thank you so much jni but i am like a type of fan who likes muskets if you could i would be very happy if you added a musket unit i love it already but i am just asking.
Hi, the next update will be released in about two weeks. Maybe earlier for direct x 11 users, because there are some problems with the support of low end hardware at the moment.
hey JNI did you just delay the next update the day before it comes out oh someday i,m going to uninstill ancient warfare 2 like oh my god if i was you i would never delay the updates >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( and go die in a hole you dumb ####
You better learn to read! I said it's delayed and there is no new date. And you don't know anything about how hard it is to develop the game. Your behaviour is just unreasonable(Not the first time...)
Do you even know how hard it is to make videogames? I got (Insert offesive disease here) Reading your comment, Making games is hard, Updates are delayed so the next update is STABLE, And not some Glitchy mess.
sailor (goes around the ship repairing holes,working the pumps,ect. and should have a dagger)
grapeshot cannon (fires a bunch of small projectiles that pierce the ship and do a ton of damage to crew)
Captain (has a flintlock in his right hand and a sabre in his left hand and should have double the health of a regular unit)
Molotov (a pirate that throws molotovs and burns enemy ships)
drunk pirate (this guy drank a bit to much beer....but he throws bottles at enemys and when the bottles hit something the glass goes and cuts everything around it so he's a bit.....useful?)
platypus (yep...this thing is actually harmful.the male one's anyways.it stabs enemys with the back of its feet poisoning enemys.and there small which makes them a hard target.who knew that such a cute and cuddly creature would be so deadly?)
special units:
Captain Black Beard (has a blunderbuss in his left hand and a sabre in his right hand and should obviously have a black beard and should have a lot of health)
Shark Rider (its a pirate with a blunderbuss on a shark and the shark bites chunks out of a ship and the pirate would shoot the enemys and if the pirate dies then the shark is still alive and if the shark dies then the pirate is still alive....but the pirate would drown or be eaten by other sharks or whatever)
sharkman (this guys a beast......literally.he can swim in water and has a shark head so he bites people and he can board enemy ships.he could take out a ship that has only sailors and little resistance by his self.)
octoman (........why?he is a beast like sharkman and can grab and throw or grab and eat people's heads off.he's actually good friends with sharkman and together they can destroy any ship.exept for very large ships,such as the man-o-war but they would damage it a lot.oh and he has the head and tentacles of a octopus.)
mega platypus (because platypuses weren't enough.this thing is absolutely huge and has lasers shooting out of its eyes.well it doesn't have lasers shooting out of its eyes but its huge.and stings people with the back of their feet poisoning them and the poison does more damage then a regular platypus.)
that's all I got I hope you guys like my suggestions.
I just downloaded Ancient Warfare 2, and it launches fine, until I get past the "Ancient Warfare 2, made in Unity" screen, and it just gets stuck. It doesn't crash or freeze, just doesn't get past that screen. I'm running the game on a Macbook Air (late 2010) on the latest version of Mac OS (Sierra). Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Jannik wants to complete this game before he moves onto the modern spinoff, And judging by the Progress List he posted on twitter, It may take a while.
Haha! I just tried to look at some of the code in the game files just to see if i could understand what any of it meant you know? lol but THAT is not english.

7:40 am eastern time here and still no update.
It's uploaded since 3 hours...
is the update out yet? It's 9:50 pm western time.
No yet :(
Either he's lazy/forgot, his internet is slow, or itch.io hasn't approved of the update yet
Yeah...
Time zones are useless... The update will be out in about 4 hours
you should put in a thing that shows times for other places, not just UTC.im in EST and I have no idea what 12:00 am UTC is.
Just google it, it'll show UTC time! :D
ya that's what I did.
It should be up rn, right?
I think,dunno for sure though. guess we will find out tomorrow.
I'm gonna stay up all night to wait lol
so when is update? just asking
tomorrow, 12am UTC
I finally finished the level bundle and set a new personal record in gladiator arena!
1v1 me bro!
if jumping was aded will there be fall damege
No. Maybe I will add that later
Whats the name of the menu song? Also AWSOME game. I love it.
It's Rapture from Ross Bugden. You can find it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vja87ZXejyk
How to get in firstperson ?
The default key is 'c'
Why cant i download the story of lords bundle? i keep clicking the button download btw nothing happens
There is a bug on mac os, so you have to wait for the next update next week.
how do you download the story of the lords i can't
thanks
There is a bug on mac os, so you have to wait for the next update next week.
the lord units should have powers or abilities because they are lords
JNI, how do you fix the version on mac? Also did you publish ocean battles yet?
I mean is the ocean battles in experimental or are they going to be released on steam?
(JUST FOUND OUT THAT THE BATTLES COME OUT IN A WEEK SORRY)
Also an idea for two maps and two units that go with it: Grand River with a large river that can fit boats and they shoot at the men on the land. Units: Tribal Member (with a hut) that has a unique spear and animal skin clothes, Tribal Chief with a cane that can bop people in the head. Island, where the boats can board the island and attack from there. Units: (idk)
I have thought about something like that, too and I think this is something for future updates.
will there just be maps with water or is it placeable?
It would be a water map with procedural generated islands
keep up the good work jni i hopeto see a good game
I love the leprechaun!it looks so cool.all it needs now is a green hat and a brown beard! this update is gonna be awesome.
since its close to St. Patrick's Day,i have an idea for a unit:
leparchaun (or how ever you spell it) (has a pot of gold and he throws many small pieces of gold out of the pot at enemies.and when he kills a enemy,they turn into gold.)
also when are you going to put chariots into the game?
That's a good idea! I'm doing it right now.
I don't know then I will add chariots to the game. The priority is on ocean battles at the moment.
Since its ancient warfare please dont add like modern planes but if you can please make archimedee's plane and helicopter.
and will the ships in ocean battles be platforms or units itd be cool to be able to add additional units on ships.
Yes, youcan place units on ships, but they will work without them, too.
And I won't add modern stuff to this game, but there will be a spin off.
Can I get the experimental?
Which experimental? The spin off is not available at the moment and the ocean battles will be added next week. There is no experimental version.
Cool JNI you did created zombies it very cool now and this time this game will be a left 4 ancient 2
thx for adding it in!cant wait to see it.
thx for adding it in! cant wait to see it.
first of all:this is fucking glitchy as hell...we can't exit the damn CONTROL MENU
2:when i saw "custom battle" i though i could make a castle defence thing...and then...we can't fucking spawn units on the walls
3:so fucking unstable
4THE FUCK ARE THOSE FIGHTS?
first of all: it is still being worked on so of course its going to be glitchy
second you can spawn units on walls except for some of the newer units
third again,its still being worked on
fourth the dev is working on the fighting system.again,its still work in progress.
see,when you make a game,before realeasing it,make sure BASIC COMMANDS WORK,i've seen games in earliers states that weren't as instable,with perfect controls of units and where hte menus where FINISHED
It's called early access and it's to show an idea and develop the game based on the ideas and feedback of the community!
No one force you to play it while it's in early access....
HEY
1.if you have a bad computer dont blame it on the game
2.You can exit the control menu there is a big X in the top right of the screen
3.You can make a castle defence thing dont be so childish and be like ¨oh this one unit doesn't go on the wall I suppose none of the other units can go either¨
4.Do you suppose that in the ancient world the armies were the most coordinated armies in history and this is a free work in progress game so dont expect the AI to be at the level of all the big companies.
@sohovapottu
You are right! Of course I will have to do improvements, but I'm a solo developer, so the development is a bit slower...
And yes, I will improve the AI behaviour soon, but the concept of the game is minimalistic, so they won't behave like elite warriors.
im no game dev but i want to help update even if im no game dev
Sorry, but I don't need any help with the project. And if you really want to do game development work, you will need to learn at least one topic (Programming, modelling, concept artist...)
like the game im actually wantingto be a game dev when i become olderor a youtuber
maby necromancers in the game or some unit that summons an army very slowly like one or 2 at a time but deadly in hords and they have a magic blast attack magic
wepons for the player id like that but you dont have to its your game not mine
There will be fantasy unit, so maybe I will add necromancers, too.
I't dosent work
실행이 안돼요
Have you fixed the bug for Mac which causes the game to get stuck after the game starts? The bug where the game name shows up and then the screen is just stuck?
All starting bugs will be fixed with the next update.
i think u need to fix the swing animations and make a first person mode
their is a first person mode press c.
You don't need to in the next update, but sometime, will you add IronClads? And older subs like the Hunley? And, there is a kind of torpedo called a spar torpedo (The weapon on the Hunley) and it rams ships, and explodes! Can you try to add these?
Thanks for your suggestions, I will add more ships in the next updates, but I don't want to add too new ships. The Icon clads sounds good.
Thanks!
I cant wait for tomorrow!
what happens tomorrow
the next update.well should be the next update.
Sorry but there is still no release date. The release date in game can't be disabled... The next update will release in max. 1-2 weeks, because there are heavy changes in terms of performance, graphics and the ocean battles are not 100% finished yet.
If I wouldn't support direct x9 gpus, the update would be ready tomorrow...
oh ok.
MAKE A BATTERING RAM ALSO IM A 9 YEAR ON MY MOMS COMPUTER
that's a cool idea.im 10 years old and have my own computer even though its not very good I'm still older then you :P also you had caps on if you didn't know when you made that comment.
Keep up the good work! :)
I will :)
the ancient Romans used a kind of Harpoon to tear the seals of their enemies ships
Will we see a weapon like this in Ancient Warfare 2?
If so that would be rally awesome
That's a really cool idea, I will think about it and maybe you will see it in the next update.
I ligit love this game and thank you so much jni but i am like a type of fan who likes muskets if you could i would be very happy if you added a musket unit i love it already but i am just asking.
Muskets are on my list.
I gotta make a new video on this soon :p
hey JNI ...love the game...could u plz tell an approx release date for the next update......waiting eagerly.......keep up the good work
Hi, the next update will be released in about two weeks. Maybe earlier for direct x 11 users, because there are some problems with the support of low end hardware at the moment.
can't wait....
when you go to level bundles,and you click equipment where it says chestpiece,leggings and boots it says helmet.
Already fixed for the next update, but thanks for reporting it!
ok your welcome.
hey JNI did you just delay the next update the day before it comes out oh someday i,m going to uninstill ancient warfare 2 like oh my god if i was you i would never delay the updates >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( and go die in a hole you dumb ####
You better learn to read! I said it's delayed and there is no new date. And you don't know anything about how hard it is to develop the game. Your behaviour is just unreasonable(Not the first time...)
Enjoy your ban :)
Do you even know how hard it is to make videogames? I got (Insert offesive disease here) Reading your comment, Making games is hard, Updates are delayed so the next update is STABLE, And not some Glitchy mess.
How can you be so disrespectful?
hey JNI will the next level bundle be all about ocean battles i hope so and it would be cool
I have few ideas for the boats:
sailor (goes around the ship repairing holes,working the pumps,ect. and should have a dagger)
grapeshot cannon (fires a bunch of small projectiles that pierce the ship and do a ton of damage to crew)
Captain (has a flintlock in his right hand and a sabre in his left hand and should have double the health of a regular unit)
Molotov (a pirate that throws molotovs and burns enemy ships)
drunk pirate (this guy drank a bit to much beer....but he throws bottles at enemys and when the bottles hit something the glass goes and cuts everything around it so he's a bit.....useful?)
platypus (yep...this thing is actually harmful.the male one's anyways.it stabs enemys with the back of its feet poisoning enemys.and there small which makes them a hard target.who knew that such a cute and cuddly creature would be so deadly?)
special units:
Captain Black Beard (has a blunderbuss in his left hand and a sabre in his right hand and should obviously have a black beard and should have a lot of health)
Shark Rider (its a pirate with a blunderbuss on a shark and the shark bites chunks out of a ship and the pirate would shoot the enemys and if the pirate dies then the shark is still alive and if the shark dies then the pirate is still alive....but the pirate would drown or be eaten by other sharks or whatever)
sharkman (this guys a beast......literally.he can swim in water and has a shark head so he bites people and he can board enemy ships.he could take out a ship that has only sailors and little resistance by his self.)
octoman (........why?he is a beast like sharkman and can grab and throw or grab and eat people's heads off.he's actually good friends with sharkman and together they can destroy any ship.exept for very large ships,such as the man-o-war but they would damage it a lot.oh and he has the head and tentacles of a octopus.)
mega platypus (because platypuses weren't enough.this thing is absolutely huge and has lasers shooting out of its eyes.well it doesn't have lasers shooting out of its eyes but its huge.and stings people with the back of their feet poisoning them and the poison does more damage then a regular platypus.)
that's all I got I hope you guys like my suggestions.
Thanks for all the suggestions. I think you will find some of them in the game soon ;)
Thx!
Hey guys,
I just downloaded Ancient Warfare 2, and it launches fine, until I get past the "Ancient Warfare 2, made in Unity" screen, and it just gets stuck. It doesn't crash or freeze, just doesn't get past that screen. I'm running the game on a Macbook Air (late 2010) on the latest version of Mac OS (Sierra). Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Yeah, the Mac version is bugged for some reason. Jannik will fix it in the latest upcoming update, so please be patient :)
Thank you very much for your reply! I can't wait for the next update :)
Release date for modern spin-off? I reaaaaaally want to play modern version of this!!
Jannik wants to complete this game before he moves onto the modern spinoff, And judging by the Progress List he posted on twitter, It may take a while.
