Mordhau Dev Tracker

Soon, friends

Hey all, sorry for the late one!

Like always, we'd love to hear feedback on the game, and we're always looking for ways to improve. Please let us know any feedback, comments, concerns, etc. that you have; we'll absolutely take them into consideration. Anyways, please be civil and keep things polite down below. Thanks!

As for our meeting this week, no bullet points this time - we actually had a pretty short meeting overall. Everyone's got their heads down, focusing on final touches before we release. We're eyeing a release in the coming weeks (can't say when exactly), and as of today we've finished up all map changes and the addition of our new map, Dungeon, as well as cosmetic integration, localization updates, etc.

We're more or less 'done' with the update, but we have one known bug with faces we're hammering out, as well as lighting builds, and some text overflowing UI boxes in certain languages. Fixing the face issue will require some small tweaking, bu...

All good, sorry for being a little spicy last night. We all want the game to do well and be better, so I know it's coming from a good place. <3

Oh, yeah - to answer OP, we aren't rolling DLC female versions into the existing DLC as far as I'm aware, that would kind of be weird to add stuff to content that already exists.

We don't plan on doing exact copies of male voices for the female characters, instead the naming conventions of "cruel" for example just kind of cue you into the personality of the voice.

There's no real need to lock ourselves into replicating the personalities, so the female character voices should stand on their own just fine.

Yes, instead of work and passion to create a helmet from Giovanni Paolo Negroli, we created a different helmet from a different armorsmith, Filippo Negroli, which required both work and passion

Like seriously, mask off, personal response here - if you're going to sh*t on the game at least do a modicum of research instead of these braindead zero effort takes

I believe what Marox said in the last meeting is that Valve has a set schedule for free weekends, so you have to apply to get a slot or something. We don't exactly have the luxury of choosing when to do the free weekend, so we got a weekend scheduled that was close enough.

I absolutely agree with you although there is a chance a decent chunk of the players play because of the medieval aspect. Otherwise yes there is a lot of potential fun settings that could be done for a game like this

This is a weird take. First of all Mordhau in my opinion has raised the bar high & set a new standard in the medieval slasher genre (perhaps not everything, but definitely combat & technical level).

Since I played a decent role in making this game I think its fair to say that I build on and improved the genre since Mordhau does that. Ontop of this we made over 20 patches with hundreds of gameplay changes many of which have improved the gameplay since release considerably, and many of those also came from community feedback. Not all changes were good sure, but it is impossible in such an experimental genre to have 100% success rate with every change. There was plenty of innovative stuff as well as various attempts (mostly successfull) to fix the most broken stuff of this genre like very broken looking/feeling swings etc. So while the game is not perfect and there is always room to improve nobody can say we didn't try.

I also never blamed the genre directly, just said...

This could have been phrased better but I was speaking for me personally here, as in I will be retiring from Mordhau after the next update or two not for Triternion as a whole. Especially anything major combat rework related from my end. Reason is to work on the new game. Hope this clarifies some things

This is just for the FL/INV stuff to my knowledge, not Brawl :)

Hey all,

Like always, we like to hear your feedback! Any thoughts, questions, suggestions or whatever are super valuable to us, as they help us stay on the right track with development of the game. While we might not be able to work on every suggestion listed, knowing the general opinion of the community definitely helps when we're creating new content for Mordhau. You know the drill - please be civil to each other (and us please) and keep things constructive. Thanks!

As for the development notes this week:

• We're pretty much fully into the testing phase for this update cycle; if things go well, we're looking at a patch relatively soon™ - now I won't jinx it by saying a date, but we're getting most things nicely packaged up.
• Our new map, Dungeon, is wrapping up - the only things needed at the moment are little gameplay-related things like blocking volumes for buildable/toolbox stuff, and one or two art tweaks. Optimization is done, but we might...

From what I'm aware, they're still being worked on - it's something we want to get exactly right, otherwise it makes the combat worse :D

Yeah, definitely agreed. We definitely identified a lack of interactivity/detail in the map, and the last objective being a bit underwhelming.

We plan on some improvements to the map for sure, but as of now it's a bit too early to tell how things change on the level.

We have cosmetics coming, but usually we bundle them with maps to get the maximum impact out of them. :)

So this patch will have women characters + Dungeon + cosmetics.

yeah weapons would be a lot cooler, I can look into it

Tencent gave us a lot of money to get a small non-controlling cut of the company, so they can't tell us to do anything. This is good for the company as it gives us more money to do things, but we still have complete control and we're independent. Kind of a win-win for all parties involved.

As for squat, I bet it's around somewhere. We're unsure if we'll add it back in, but if it exists I bet modders can make something useable out of it.

They have a minority stake - so in other words, they gave us a boatload of money to have a little cut of the company. As a minority stake, they can't tell us to do anything or exert any control over what we do, so it's purely a cash injection.

That's one of the reasons we took a while with them - you can get away with a sword or a chair or something looking slightly off, but if a human looks off you'll instantly pick it up.
