After a few years of testing and then early access, Gloria Victis will be officially launched today February 7 in version 1.0 , both on historical servers (so as not to erase the progress of players from the first hour) and on servers New Beginning for players wishing to begin their adventure in uncharted territory. These New Beginning servers will open their doors today at 3 p.m. (GMT) and until then, Gloria Victis is revealed in a launch trailer illustrating the main mechanics of the MMORPG, mainly articulated around conquest of territories and medieval wars. Gloria Victis game play looks amazing. but sadly it seems like gamers are dissapointed with a decision to make archery weak compared to knife fights. One of the Redditors explained it like this: To deal a bit of damage as an archer you must : - wear light armor = you get one shoted by any melee - not carry a shield - invest fully into stamina - aim very well because head is not easy to hit with the havy bullet drop OR aim at the feet for even less damage - limited number of arrows And with all that, you deal 1/10 of any melee damage... Coming from games like Mordhau / Chivalry were archery clearly has its own place, makes me sad."
