Mordhau Dev Tracker

We're trying out some changes to the nobles with the upcoming update. We're taking this gradually, as we don't want to super-overtune the nobles.

This would be sick! The thing we'll have to figure out is how to do lighting separate from the map objects, so if we change objective stuff or move a barrel 10 feet we don't have to go in and fix everything on like 7 different variants of each map. We've definitely talked about this and it's something we want to figure out.

Hey all!

As always, we appreciate your input - the feedback is invaluable and really lets us see how everyone feels on the state of the game, and what's needed going forwards. If you've got any ideas on your mind, feel free to post them below! Suggestions are always welcome, and feedback on the current game helps a ton as well. Thanks again!

Long weapons doing more damage than short weapons in every situation would completely negate using the short ones. Short weapons tend to have more damage to make up for the drawback of no reach, and reach is already a massive advantage.

As for 38 vs 40, this doesn't change the hit to kill amounts unless these are combined with other weapons, and we don't want things like spear being used to get one hit and then run off, allowing teammates to hit them once for a kill. If this was the case, you could get stabbed in the chest by the long spear, he runs off and you can't get to him because you're fighting a guy, and he can poleaxe your head in. If it's the short spear, the person has to get in close and is more vulnerable.

ugh get these spins out of UFC they're so unrealistic /s

The solution to this problem is to hit your S key - he'd completely miss, because this attack won't work against someone that doesn't run into it.

attacking = w
defending = s

this would have completely missed.

We can't eliminate the possibility of doing this - if you can't do this, you can't 180 after parrying and riposte into a guy behind you, etc - the combat would be broken. Instead, we make things like this not effective. This move in the clip is not effective, all you need to do is back up. People do these things to flex, not because they're actually useful.

We're working on something to help fix this :)

team ranked is something that's in development :)

we could probably whip up a skin sometime for em, doesn't seem like it'd be the hardest thing ever

we want to make folders at some point. no ETA yet because that would require a complete armory overhaul which would take a ton of time, but we want them too :)

1. you can do this by copying the face or going into the game.ini file already btw, but an easier solution could be cool
2. true, agree
3. yeah those are coming, as well as less expensive things for more casual folks
4. we want to add more progression that's level based :)
5. would be sick, the thing is a lot of attempts at this stuff can come off sounding cringe if it's "german accent in english", it's kind of hard to get that nailed down. that being said it could be really neat if done right, and also a voice line that's in a completely different language would be awesome too. Atm though we're not focusing on voices, as there's a ton of back-and-forth we need to do with actors to get a voice created and implemented into the game
6. Could be neat, although it might have some weird effects on performance. We can look into it, but it's not something that's super high priority at the moment.

1. Not really something we're interested in, to be honest. It's kind of cool, but not really something that we're particularly interested in. 🤷‍♀️
2. It's a cool idea, but it would require quite a bit of work and most players would only use the feature a handful of times. If it selected from your loadouts maybe that would be more feasible, but we definitely don't have the resources to randomly equip everything on loadouts. This is a great example of something that's a good idea, but unfortunately we have to prioritize things that will have the most impact on gameplay, etc.
3. Probably would be a lot of clipping - it's something we could look into, but we're not sure on this one.
4. Winning should be incentivized more - we don't want to break the gold rewards as things have been set up for a roughly 1k gold / hr rate, but we do want to encourage more teamplay and objective participation. I agree, something to this effect would be great!
5. Despacito's Capt...

1. It's something we're aware of, and we're looking into it. Team markers aren't mega-high priority atm, lots of other UI/UX stuff that Spook is working on, but we're aware of it and we'll see what we can do :)
2. I'm working a bit on a dev update, hopefully should have one out relatively soon. We've been slacking a bit on this front and I totally agree that having a condensed general update is superior to sifting through a bunch of different platforms or asking around to see what's coming.

We're working on team ranked! And rewards are also something we want to do. We'd have to do them in a way that's sustainable - unlike CoD or other AAA titles, we're not really set up to pump out 30 new cosmetics every few months, so it'd have to be done in a way that we can keep pace with and have cool items, but not overburden ourselves.

It's on our to-do list, as far as I know :)

A quick announcement:

Over the course of the past few weeks, we have been receiving allegations of players manipulating ranked matches to boost MMR. We’ve been monitoring this situation and as of will now be taking administrative action against any confirmed boosting. These actions will include MMR/rank resets, ranked matchmaking bans, official server bans and potentially game bans, depending on the severity and repeat offenses.

We definitely had an idea that emotes and lute etc would be popular - Mordhau's about player freedom/expression, from the way you look, how you fight, etc. and emotes are a natural extension of that :)

I don't think we realized that some people would enjoy emotes more than the combat, but it's great that people can find so much enjoyment in them!

ideally - but ehhhhh we never make deadlines so we don't set them. When It's Ready™
