Remove that bump, keep the 10-20 damage it does when it collides with you and problem fixed - horses are no longer op. Please concider it with the team, thank you

Ranked rewards or other incentives to play it.

Hi, really looking forward to those combat changes, other than that just a couple things i thought of:

• Any chance of adding some kind of autobalance? Maybe i was just unlucky, but about 3/4 of all matches i played this week (EU) were completely one sided because of stacked teams. Now if a group of high level friends or clanmates join a server, it's normal that they stomp, but when it is the norm for random high levels to stack together in one team, it kind of ruins the fun. Yes, levels or ranks aren't a perfect way to tell a players skill, but if one team has a lot of lvl < 30 and only two lvl 100s and the other team has five lvl 100s plus two lvl 200s, it's pretty obvious from the start who is going to win, with the entire weaker team usually having negative k/d apart from two or three players. Players from the weaker team sometimes just leave, so that team also gets outnumbered by as much as 3-4 players at times for a few minutes. Close matches are the most fun, but they are getting rare.
• Just played a couple of Horde matches for the first time and it was surprisingly fun. It also shows how large and detailed some unused portions of the maps are, so fingers crossed that we can visit the village with the graveyard behind grad in fl/inv sometime in the future :)
• One of the few things that i liked about Chivalry Deadliest Warrior were the medals after a match, for example medal for the most kills, assists, headshots, teamkills etc, in Mordhau it could be most damage dealt to nobles, most objective points, engineering related medals, most chambers in the match etc. Maybe it could be tied to gold rewards to serve as an incentive for support playstyles.
• Any chance that we could get some perk like the Peasant but for the rusty weapons (arming sword, longsword and broken longsword) found on mountain peak? They are surprisingly fun to use. Or maybe something like a Scrounger perk, which would make you able to dig up a random rusty weapon from an ammo box or something.
• How soon is "actually relatively soon™"? Should we bring out the tomatoes ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) ?

1) Standardize the emote menu. Having different orders for different weapons is annoying.

2) Let us keybind specific emotes/voicelines.

3) Add names on mouseover to the various colors during customization.

4) If the noble leaves the match, have him replaced rather than killed.

5) Do something about griefers kicking teammates into spikes/off buildings.

Parrying late against the axe shouldn't give a guaranteed hit on the next combo'd accel.

Sometimes you can't pick up bear traps when you drop them on the ground with G. It feels like it happens a third of the time, so it's kinda annoying when I'm changing weapons around.

For new stuff, I still yearn for a proper rock sling and bracers that don't force you to wear gloves. pls n thank u jax bby <3

Greetings, Jaxxon. I hope your moving out works well. I have some questions.

1. Consider lowering tier 1 armour to 2 points instead of 3 (for chest and helm).

2. Longbow being 33p is a bit exxagerated imo , i think 30p would be better or even 28.

3. Currently i have many builds where i have 1 spare point i cant fit anywhere , maybe a bit of perk point changing like Rat ( being 6 points is questionable).

4. Pls unban Adeveth i miss him

5. 3 Coloured armor ? Alpha tabbard had 3 colours on it iirc , maybe in teh future we can get to put more than 2 colours on cloth , for variety. You can keep 2 colours for team colours.

6. More OST from the guys that made the original music? In teh future i mean.....for the new maps.

New game modes that focus unused map areas and new objectives would spice things up

1) New colors (bright pink and less bright pink) aren't available for emblems. Is that a bug?

2) Night mode for maps could be a very cool thing. Are devs planning to do that?

3) let us use certain gestures on horseback. For example: wave, point, throat cut, thumbs up and thumbs down, cheer, yelling, disapprove

4) More things as rewards for lvl 200 would be amazing. For example: banners and metal tints

5) Did devs consider making jupon as an option for torso?

6) Give us an option to customize default mercenaries by giving them perks.
