They'll never come out and say it, but we're at the end of the road.

it shouldn't be a priority but could you somehow updtate the medbag, its hasn't changed since the game release and i thought it could be a good idea for more support oriented playstyles, maybe instead of droping the bag you could heal someone directly idk

Please add a voice line telling people to be quiet for a second. There’s a surprising lack of stealth options for a war game.

Silence is distasteful. Engage with your community more! I see you've responded to like 3 posts total and you most certainly are cherry picking which to respond to. Why are you doing this? Do you think people aren't realizing this?

Acknowledge the behavior of some of your...coworkers, too. I think it's getting a little much that we have toxic in-game admins that flame people and game devs that nerf based on their own duel losses. If nothing else mature devs/admins would be a plus.

The longer each of you guys stay silent on these topics the more it looks like you support their actions. Ignore this all you want but the truth is that it directly connects to why your player base has tanked so much and why other combat games like Renown are probably going to take most of your player base. There's no way you guys don't realize this.

We could get drums to accompany the shawm and lute

This isn't related to the update bit an observation. I feel like Mordhau doesn't get patch updates frequently and they only come when a major update is coming. I wouldn't be opposed to having a patch to fix major game issues come out with no content.

Can you move the mercenary selector back in bounds on Grad? It was fun : (

Hi Jax, I know you guys at Triternion think I'm wrong about this but I'm just going to say it one more time... I think the merge of Invasion and Frontline is driving players away and should be reversed. It has fundamentally changed the way people can play the game, and not for the better.

Despite a free weekend, 50% off sale, and reaching a peak of 6900 players this month (highest peak since the last 50% off sale back in May 2021), the average player count for the last 30 days is still less than it was before the patch that merged these game modes.

You told us that the Chivalry 2 Steam release is the real culprit for that, but Chivalry 2 has been hemorrhaging players on Steam since it's release in June; going from almost 10k average players to 1537 in the last 30 days; even less than Mordhau. If Mordhau players left purely for Chivalry 2, why haven't they come back now that they've stopped playing it?

I know you're probably waiting to find out if your planned changes to the end-game voting system fixes this problem, but I really don't think it will. It's just going to favour the Invasion majority (which you revealed to be a 60/40 split) and alienate the Frontline minority, which is still a sizeable chunk of players who will not be able to play the game in the way they've become used to.

I know you're sick of hearing from me, so you'll be please to know that this will be the last time I bring this up. I'm tired, boss.

Having a lot of packet loss issues atm, any word on whether there's gonna be a fix for that? I don't think it's from my end

Hey Jax! I just noticed that the tight hood is restricted away from peasants, but not the mail skullcap. The tight hood is like a cartoonish medieval peasant's most iconic headware and the mail skullcap is for warriors. Fix? :D

Any info on a console release date?

Can you guys bring back classic horde as an option? Maybe just a selection between defending the king and kingless mode? Keep the skill tree tho.

As someone who plays the occasional Horde mode, unless there are going to be more tweaks this update, I really think the maps need some difficulty marking to give some expectations for those who don't know that difficulty swings wildly from map to map. Maybe just a star rating next to the name. This isn't thoroughly researched, but something like this seems right to me.

EDIT: Hell, you guys have to have win/loss rates. Just apply those yourself.
