That's the million dollar question rn.
It's a matter of profit liability. BGS self polices the mods themselves. Which requires someone on overwatch to what's downloaded for use. Which means paying somebody. Which means profit loss. Nexus and their ilk are like the wild West.
Money. That's the reason. Xbox can't figure out how to profit more than the modders from modding. All the positive smoke blowing towards modders is to keep them interested, but actual implementation still requires them to profit more than modders or it's not worth the effort on Microsoft's part.
I second this. They losing out on newbies to m&b with this update garbage.
I third this.
They've dropped consoles development before too. With warband. They made sure warband was running good enough for Xbox and then dropped development on it too focus on PC warband. TW don't care about us console players too much, as long as they get cash influx. I'm waiting for dlc disappointment. But hey, if I get cheats for bannerlord, at least it will be a bit more than what I got with warband.
When we stop playing and give up on this game. I think if we ignore them for a year they'll finally decide it was a bad idea to fix mp and sp at the same time. Mp is dead, as in archeologists are sifting sand to find relics, dead. No patch gonna fix it.
A quintillion times this.
