Hi all,

I'm part of a community that has decided Dark Messiah is our flavor of the month, and I'm interested in starting up a Crusade server for us and anyone else who wants to come.

However, when I last played the game in mid 2007, MP was basically unplayable due to instant kill mage attacks and multishot archers spamming their skills. When I left, there was a vague promise from Ubi that an SDK would be coming soon, so the community could attempt to address these balance problems.

Has anything like that happened? Is there an unofficial balance patch or plugin formula that I could look into to make the game more team-oriented or at least more fun for people who don't play mage and archer on defense?

Thanks in advance.

Oh... you can change all the damage values using console commands.

Pretty much any and all attacks can be changed.

.Type cvarlist in console for a full list of commands/convars.

Thanks! I'll experiment with it a bit and see if people actually want to play.

I wish more people would do this. DM is one of my favorite games and multiplayer was fun at the beginning. But everytime I join, 70% is mage insta killing. To bad this game has gone down the drain so quick. Some DM love would be great both single player (expansion or something) and multiplayer (maps, patch etc).

A shame most great game die first and the crappy ones live forever with endless sequals.

I know, I dunno why Dark Messiah didn't get that much attention. it's really a great game. I wish they made Dark messiah 2 with free roaming and multiplayer like this DM. By the way, I haven't played Dm multiplayer didn't work or didn't find any servers
