We are fixing drags and accels. We have found some issues that are causing unintended insta accels, and things that create completely unreadable situations, and we're working on fixing them :)

I really love you for keeping stuff coming <3 <3 <3 Stay awesome. For me nothing really to complain about.

One thing that i would love to see but expect to be impossible/not wanted from ur side: autobalance teams on level base. my experiance as an avarage 100+ player is that high levels tend to stack. what means that teams of low levels get beaten up often without having carries that help them to live longer. Fmpov Level based autobalance would be the easiest way to balance and most of the time level and skill are correlated. Squads should be prioritised to stay together.

We've seen some issues on this front, and it's something we can take a look at. No guarantees yet, as we don't have any built-in support currently, but it could be worth the effort.

0) My friend can't download the game since new patch. He tried nearly every known method to fix this issue but nothing helped him. What should he do?

Cosmetic suggestions:

1) More leather colors would be a very cool addition.

2) Brigandine greaves need a rework. These legs are really nice, but sadly we can't colour the leather part. Please fix that.

3) Gothic legs seem way too large, isnt it an issue? 4) Archer arms have clipping issues with most of shoulder options.

5) Please make the leather part of archer arms with bracers colorable.

Other questions:

1) How is the progress going with SDK? What should we expect?

2) How is the progress going with scimitar? Should we expect it in the upcoming patch or it will come later?

  1. have him check tech support on the discord, he'll find the most up-to-date info there. It seems to be an issue with our steam download and our file structure, which is something that will be improved with the next update. (next update will be weird like this one, but after that it will be good for subsequent ones.) This bug is due to the map names in the files changing after updates, requiring them to be redownloaded. Going forwards the maps will have static filenames, and fix the issue hopefully.

  2. We can see :)

  3. I talked about this above in jamcake's comment.

  4. Same as what i said in the other comment thread, reworking items isn't time-effective really.

  5. We can look at that, but sometimes clipping is inevitable. There are too many possible combinations to completely eliminate it, but we do what we can.

  6. Same as 2 and 3, but we can still talk about this going forwards.

  1. Horde improvements such as fixing AI knocking you down easily near ladders
  2. Kicks with all items
  3. Shields should not be de-equipped when the main weapon is thrown
  4. Remove the Huntsman perk or make it a default trait
  5. Nerf cleaver damage against armor (stab damage could be slightly increased to balance it)
  6. Nerf axe attack and/or combo speed (axes should realistically not be faster than swords)
  7. Kills made using a teammate’s mounted crossbow or fireplace should award points to the builder
  8. Allow mounted crossbow bolts to be parried
  1. can be looked at, we plan to give horde some love in the future.
  2. this is something that currently isn't possible due to the way items are coded, but we can take a look perhaps in the future. we've talked about it a few times but it's not something we've seen as ultra-high priority.
  3. Similar to #2, it's not currently possible, but we can look into it.
  4. We've discussed Huntsman a little - we don't have a solution as of now but we know it can in some cases reduce the depth, and we're focusing a bit more on perks recently. We'll see what comes of it!
  5. Cleaver has always been really strong, we'll see if there are any changes that would improve the balance of the game.
  6. Realism isn't a huge concern on this, but usually we try to make axes have good combos and damage at the expense of stab damage potential. It's something we can keep note of, though.
  7. Agreed.
  8. This could be interesting, but usually they don't have a massive im...

Heya, very exciting stuff in the notes! A couple of things:

  • Personally it doesn't make sense to me that ranged weapons are banned in Teamfight when the Short Spear has the most powerful ranged attack in the game and is widely used. The spear throw can easily repeatably deal 50+ damage over the entire distance of the arena and I think the throw should be disabled in the interest of competitive play.
  • I think most of the fashion community agrees that the Brigandine Greaves are (in terms of the model) one of the best tier 2 leg options, but it's a massive shame we can't colour the thighs and rivets to match the Brigandine or Corazzina, making them too out of place to style properly most of the time. With editing old cosmetics being out of the question would the devs consider adding replacement that better adheres to quality of Mordhau's more recent cosmetics? Perhaps something like this: ...

For the first one, this is something we're looking into. Not sure exactly how we'll go about it but the idea is that stackable throwables would cause projectile spam, but we still have with with normal weapons. So nothing decided yet, but we'll take a good look at some possible solutions, and hopefully get to a good compromise.

So for the brigandine legs, and all armor - we really don't go back and edit older existing pieces unless we really have to. The amount of time/effort to do so could be better used to make a new armor piece that's similar but with updated proportions and newer, nicer textures etc. The numbers here are made up, but if it takes 8 hours to make changes to the existing legs versus 12 to make a new similar model and textures, we'd rather go with the second as it now means there's a new cosmetic in the game that gives more variety. I like the look of those, we can look into something like that potentially. I'll bring it up to the art guys!

Hello everyone!

As always, your feedback is extremely important to us. Let us know your thoughts on the state of the game, what you'd like to see in the future, and any suggestions, critiques, etc.
Also, we've decided that the executioner's hood will stay in your inventory if you log in before the 2nd - get it before it's gone!

Our notes for the meeting today:

  • We have identified an issue with MMR being lost for no reason, we're investigating this. Seems to be unrelated to the game's code itself, but the backend.
  • Discussion on game modes, cavalry combat, miscellaneous things.
  • Fixes have been made for undesired behavior; hiding inside trebuchets on Grad, building in spawn areas on maps, etc.
  • Various development on backend and technical areas of the game.
  • Dev progress on armory rework, which is going well.
  • Various art development on level assets.
  • Lots of focus on long-term cont...

It's a known bug, I call it the phantom swing myself. I think it has to do with changes they made to reduce 180 blocks.

It's not a bug, he was in recovery

/u/Jaaxxxxon movement for commanders/nobles is still bugged since the last patch, where sometimes you are unable to sprint and you will permanently move diagonally right when trying to sprint forwards. This makes it all but impossible to play. It is very consistent on red side commander on grad, but can also happen on other maps as far as i remember. please please fix this asap

Hmm, are you seeing this happen to other people?
(If anyone else has had this happen, please chime in here. I've heard about this but it's something I haven't personally seen.)

Hello again!
My suggestions for this week:

  • On some frontline/inv maps the spawn areas have tight exits, leading to a lot of collisions/troll people blocking entrances. Examples of this are Grad's last free guard spawn, Taiga's second Free guard spawn on INV (the wooden doors usually cause big trafic jams), Mountain peak FL last Iron company spawn and many others.
    I've 2 ideas to fix this:
    • Modify each spawn that has this sort of problem (time consuming).
    • When being on your spawn, give players a "buff" that ignores team collision (toolbox structures and players), it ends when you exit the spawn area (it should check if you're inside other player to prevent getting stuck as well).
  • Skirmishes need some sort of mechanic that prevents people from hiding, here are my suggestions:
    • Add more out of bounds zones, to prevent players getting in cheese spots (i.e. Mountain peak wooden towers, Grad's ladders that lead to t...

Some cool ideas! Not sure about horse customization since we have no support at the moment (and it's relatively minor), but I'll bring these points up in our next meeting. Thanks for the feedback :)
