Age of Chivalry

Half-Life 2 mod | Released Sep 10, 2007

Age of Chivalry is a total conversion for Half-Life 2 currently being developed by Team Chivalry. We are a close group of friends who are dedicated to creating a fun story driven multiplayer experience set in a fantasy world in the medieval ages. We are creating a fast paced and fun first person melee combat system that will take the player to a new level of immersion. The players will be able to take part in sieges, town raids and open war in a story driven game. Our goal is to let the players write the history of the game as the teams battle it out over a sequence of user controlled map cycles depending on the victor. We want to take the overall experience to a new level of fun. All of our members have a solid modding background and we hope that you support our modification as it grows and develops!

Hotfix for 1.1 to 1.1.1 and notes on the success of 1.1

Posted by AgeofChivalry on Jun 13th, 2008

The success of 1.1 has been incredible; the game has taken off to never before experienced highs for the gamers and developers alike! Age of Chivalry is now one of the most populated MODs and often has in excess of 100 players online at any given time. The numbers continue to speak for themselves when you hear that AOC 1.1 sees 3 MILLION player minutes per month!

The game has taken off to a level where it stands above even commercial-made games as these numbers exceed both those listed for 'The Ship' and 'Dark Messiah of Might and Magic'. We couldn't be happier with the success of our MOD so far and can't wait to see it continue to grow. Age of Chivalry was also announced as the Staff Selection for May 2008 as the standout MOD of the month by moddb.com!

We have since the release of 1.1 been listening to the concerns voiced by players on our forums and have decided to release a 1.1.1 hotfix. This should indicate how dedicated Team Chivalry is to delivering a solid game and ensuring its fans are pleased. If you haven't tried Age of Chivalry yet, or recently, then jump on in and join us ingame after checking out our brand new 1.1.1 ingame video!

Honestly, this is one of the best games I have ever played. It's fun, diverse, and challenging all at the same time. I sincerely suggest this game to anyone who is willing to try it.
