Also, I think warhammer needs a slight nerf

Hmm, haven't heard that much about the warhammer recently. I think mainly it's just 1 handed weapons across the board looking a little weird overall, so that is probably a better course of action than a band-aid fix on a specific weapon.

I know this is a little and kind of stupid thing, but I'd love to be able to change the colors of the teams. Kinda bored of seeing blue and red, but I don't really wanna see random colors with little arrows above their heads indicating your team. I'd love to be able to make one side yellow and the other side green or something like that. Just a thought! Otherwise, phenomenal game. I absolutely love playing it!

We have discussed this - we could use this functionality as well to benefit players that are colorblind or achromatic :)

- More Eyebrows... (especially some with more Space between them, like naturally)

- More Beards... (All Beards with Moustache with a more realistic Moustache(falling down); more new Beards like Goatee without Stubbles, Balbo, Sparrow, Circle Beard, Van Dyke, Anchor)

- More Hairstyles... (more Half-balded Variants (like those from Jason Statham or Jude Law), , curly/wavy Longhair/Hairstyles)

- More Eyecolors... (white (blind), better Green ones(we actually have 3 and 2 darker green of them looks pretty similar))

- More Base Faces... (the Plain one is pretty ugly compared to the Rough one, we really need some more new Base Faces, maybe also 1 or 2 with Scars)

- More Voices...

- More Emotes... (like Time-Out Emote, Head-Shaking, Playing Dead could be fun if the Animation is good)

- More T0(+ Peasant Perk ones), T1 Clothes, Long-Coats (yea i know...

We are working on some of these! We plan on adding some new faces and more customization options in the future - and we want to also focus a bit more on T0/T1/T2 armor, since we have a ton of T3 armor currently.

As for emotes, at the current moment we don't have the UI support to stack a ton more emotes in really, it's a bit hard to manage the system currently. If I had to guess, we'd make the emote selection system better, and able to support more emotes before we add a ton more.

Voices are pretty time intensive to add, since there is a ton of back-and-forth working with the actors on specifics. That being said, it's something we should definitely look into going forwards, and I think they would add a ton to the game.

Will there be Eastern themed armours like for Nomadic Warriors and new horse themed maps?

We would like to have some more eastern gear at some point - not far east, since Samurai etc. didn't fight knights, but we're thinking on adding some stuff at some point in the future. No guarantees as for now, but hopefully soon :D

I’m sure this has been asked before - but what is the current dev stance of accels? Too fast or just right? Love the game btw - 640 hours in 6 months

Riposte rework is in the works, it will make accels less instant and more readable. They'll still be effective of course, but there will be more ability to actually.. react :D

Any thoughts on adding a quest/ mission system to encourage people to play the game and try new things. e.g. Get 10 kills with battle-axe in Frontline.

Or perhaps weapon mastery, special rewards for people who have put a lot of time in one weapon.

We've talked about daily/weekly challenges, mastery challenges, that type of stuff before. We don't have plans currently but it's something we're aware would be nice, and we hope to look into this going forwards in the future :)

Hey all!

As always, we would love to hear your feedback, suggestions, critiques and anything else that comes to mind. Please remember to keep things civil and constructive, and we appreciate your input greatly! As for this week, we've been bust testing and wrapping up for our next update. The coming one will be mostly focused on backend work, bug fixing, and technical development, but it should be coming relatively soon! We will probably put a poll up soon for some more focused feedback as well. 👍

As for our meeting, it was mostly a recap of testing and progress updates for the patch, but we also discussed a few minor things - mostly talking about balancing teams, ways to improve the learning experience with more focused tutorial/training modes potentially, and some misc. improvements as well.

Last week's feedback can be found here:

-The gold farm is really tedious. While buying a 100k helmet doesn't make you better at the game, there is still no way to earn extra gold to ease the grind a little bit. Other people before suggested an objective based system that upon completion, you are rewarded with cash.

-More engineer buildings would be really great to have. Memes aside, frontline and invasion are fun because of the different play-styles you can choose, and engineers have quite a limited selection of buildings. I'm not really well versed in what other equipment medieval engineers used historically but, I guess it wouldn't hurt to give engineers the option to build a Scorpio mounted on a cart.

While not necessarily new buildings, it would be really nice to have the ability to upgrade buildings into fortified versions that can withstand extra punishment. I can see it only wo...

  1. Back cosmetics aren't really possible, in terms of us adding a new cosmetic slot. We're aware that capes/cloaks are highly requested, and we're looking to see what we can do. We're limited to 1 item with cloth physics per character, so we'd need to do some technical trickery to get this to work without murdering performance.
  2. We have scaled this to make it so the flashiest items are less common to see on the battlefield. If we inflate the gold gain, new flashy items would also increase in price because we don't want to see everyone running around with the coolest things. The relative rarity of them makes the items seem more prestigious, and if everybody gets those items, they won't feel as noteworthy. Also, not directed specifically at you, but I feel that a lot of people have the assumption that the idea is to buy every cosmetic item, which makes it seem that everything is overpriced - we've really intended to have the cosmetic system more of a "pick-and-choose" styl...

This has been noted, and I think we've tweaked it. Don't quote me on this though :)
I'll double check anyways to make sure we didn't overlook it.

It could be a good idea! At the moment we're not too focused on that, but it might be a good thing to look into going forwards.

  1. Is the catapult on Camp Invasion being looked at? It's long been a source of pure frustration for the attackers. If the cat user isn't an idiot they can use it far out of range of the attackers and even from behind walls.

  2. Being rammed by a horse should flinch an attack but NOT parries.

  3. The second final objective on Grad Invasion with blue as attackers should be reworked so the objectives take a bit longer but you only need a majority in the zones. This way a single enemy can't block the entire objective.

  4. Exclusive cosmetics for rank 200+s? Maybe even some for rank 300+s in the future?

  5. Will there be any more weapons in the future capable of one shotting bare legs?

  1. Catapults are being looked into!
  2. Horse bump is being tweaked :)
  3. I think we've changed this, as it was a bit annoying before. We need to also look into win% and completion stats on it as well.
  4. Maybe at some point, no plans yet though. I think some longer term cosmetics are great, but we can also effectively get this by having high-gold count cosmetics. Level-locked ones are a good idea though as well.
  5. Not sure! We have a few more ideas for upcoming weapons, but we want to make sure they are balanced and have a clearly defined role/playstyle.

A training room-style practice mode would be fantastic. I'll make sure to forward this to the team!

1) We need "none shall pass" phrase for a hold voice line. Would be a very pleasureful easter-egg.

2) Hit sound rework (or additions). At the moment, when you hit plate armour, it doesnt sound like you hit actual steel. It sounds like you are slashing through meat. If devs could implement sounds for armour hits, it would become a great addition and make an experience more immersive.

3) Community thrives for snippets and more info about patch. What makes devs not share snippets for 2+ months?

  1. When we decide to add some more voices, I'll be sure to suggest this as a line :D
  2. I agree! We might be doing some more work with sound in the future, and it would be really immersive to have this.
  3. More snippets incoming. This patch isn't very heavy on content - we're focusing a lot on more technical, backend type stuff that will allow us to release some great updates going forwards. Because of this, it's a bit hard to show off some killer content, since most of it is relatively boring and mostly code :D

I would like an increase in players to brawl servers.

In skirmish, enemy location indicators for the last 45-60s would be nice so we don’t have to play hide and seek for 3 mins for the guy on Castillo.

We're aware that not all maps are set up ideally for Brawl, and we're working on changing that. We want to keep it low player counts though, as it's a nice change of pace from the more hectic FL/INV servers.

Aight so this idea is a little stupid, but what if there was an option to spawn into the map as a rat when youre in spectator mode, so you could scurry around the map watching other guys fight and avoiding being squished it would be hilarious

While it would be great, it's just outside the scope of what we're looking to do. Unfortunately, we don't have unlimited dev time and resources, so we have to prioritize features and content.

PUT THEM BACK TO 64 PLAYERS. I adore this game and Triternion but reducing players from 64 to 48 was a huge mistake, especially as the 80 player servers are too laggy to play for me in the UK for some reason.

80p is definitely wild sometimes in that regard, we will definitely see what the consensus is within the team, taking feedback into account. :)

Hello!

  • I dont know how hard will this be to implement, but I would like to have training sword chambers costing no stam when chambering another trainingsword. That way chamber practise would be easier to do.
  • I think we could use more vehicles (animals/siege weapons) in Mordhau for some maps, here are my ideas:
  1. Mules: these animals could carry around supplies (similar to supply chests) that have charges (so it isn't an infinite supply for engineers), being near a supply chest would refill the mule's current supply charges. restocking from a mule should have shared cooldown with supply chests, so it prevents firebomb spam and other nasty stuff.
  2. Cannons / ribauldequin (organ guns): these would operate like catapults, but they would shoot straight rather than in an arc. Just imagine this or ...

  • With chambers, it would probably be better to just have a chamber training tool in the game at some point. Training sword having now stamina is bad in some ways, since it teaches bad habits - stamina management, over reliance on chambers, etc.
  • For mules and organ guns/cannons - they could be cool, not sure about how they could be implemented in a way that is balanced etc.
  • We're taking a look at some of the ballistas, I think these might have been tweaked a bit. I'll double check with the team to make sure we have made some adjustments where they're needed.

Thanks for the feedback, we appreciate it greatly!

I agree with this. I think they should stop working on new 1v1 / 3v3 maps, the ones we have are good enough and barley anyone plays those modes as is. The majority of the playerbase plays FL/INV so focus your resources there.

Thing about the 1v1/3v3 maps is we can whip them up in a few weeks. They're incredibly quick to make and don't require a ton of brand new assets to be created, don't require us to balance the spawns, objective distances etc. so they're much less complicated.

That being said, big maps are in the pipeline. Soon™

That's one of our main priorities. Lots of lessons learned from existing maps, and the new ones we make should be great. No ETA yet, but we're working on a few. Screenshots once they're more complete and we have a rough idea that they're coming soon. :)
