Pirates, Vikings and Knights II
Half-Life 2 mod | Released Jan 24, 2007
The Pirates, Vikings and Knights II team has brought a unique mod to the Half-Life 2 community. In PVKII, 3 teams compete against each other for kills, points, and total domination.
Pirates, Vikings and Knights II is a fast paced total conversion of the Source engine.
With a melee combat system that's unique to the modding community, game modes you won't find in other games and parrots that can be trained to peck at enemies, it's no surprise PVKII is so entertaining!
With each new release comes a handful of new features and changes that add even more depth and entertainment to this mod. The team works hard continuously to bring the community more action and fun.
If you enjoy getting together with people and having an exhilaratingly fun time, Pirates, Vikings and Knights II should be top on your list of mods to try!

Latest News: Beta 2.2 - Just over the horizon

Greetings!
Carlton Stevens, from the site Rabbit-Robot.com, has written a great article on PVKII. Using in-depth story telling techniques and incorporating an interview with me, Carlton has put together an amazing feature on our mod, detailing his first impressions and experiences.
Quote:I unsheathed my cutlass and the two of us circled on the top of a giant waterfall. Slipping in and out, parrying, blocking, both our swords flew back and forth. Below us all three teams clashed in a rain of sparks and gunfire. But this little dance was just between me and this huge lumbering gaggle of armor. I parried perfectly, stunning him, and with a strong swipe he fell in a heap off the top of the waterfall and into the shallow water below.
I picked up the chest while laughing maniacally. I just had a sword fight that could have been straight out of a movie. And I won.
And then I was hit in the back of the head with a throwing axe.
Altogether the article is a great read and definitely worth checking out.
Beta 2.2 is well underway and very close to release! We're expecting to release within the next week or two.
To give you an idea of what to expect, Jahhur has been hard at work editting pvk_arena and pvk_saints to fit the flow of gameplay better. Arena has a very new look:
There are plenty of new features as well, including some new grail effects for the HUD:
Those of you who haven't been following the Dev Journals may also enjoy reading about the new Parrot Naming Feature.
A changelog will be available soon enough, we don't want to spoil everything!
On another note, the new Gestir class is underway for 2.3. You may have seen a picture in one of the forum threads of the first person spear! If not, you should join the community at Forums.pvkii.com
Ferretking has recently joined the team as a concept artist. He's already working on the new classes and has provided us with two colored poses:
That's all for now, I look forward to our next news post which should include download links!

Whenever I block, attacks seem to do the same amount of damage to me, like parrying dosent even work.
you are parrying a pirate sword to a greatsword or something
doesnt work as well
or youre parrying in the wrong direction
its really a good system
I downloaded this mod, and it's great- the only downside I see is the lack of servers. I would prefer more than the 24/7 cathedral one I saw.
Fantastic mod! Now all we need are ninjas.
Well I tried this Source mod not too long ago and it got me hooked in 6 rounds of the most original deathmatch gaming I ever tried before, this is the true total conversation milestone of all Source mods.
I love the environment, I love the treasure-capturing gamemode, I love the voice commands, and I love the unique combat system. There is nothing to hate about PVK II except for the ranters flaming about unbalance issues with powerful weapons that require skill (the gunpowder barrel is extremely hazardous to the user if they don't throw it in time).
Good luck to the PVK II team to completing this Source mod out of it's beta stage, there is just so much potential in it.
This mod looks awesome now and I think you could creat it on TF2 engine then it would look alot better
Hoping to convert to the TF2 engine in version 2.3, which should also include the Gestir (Spear Viking) Class
what does the tf2 engine add?
also are you including a new class for each team?
also this mod is amazing, by far the best for hl2
Thanks :)
TF2 Engine adds a bunch of new features I think they have documentation on it somewhere.
No new classes for 2.2, but 1 new one in 2.3 (Viking Gestir)
that's funny, cause I've personally made a few of them
