Yes booo to those Taleworlders having a day off on Sunday! Who do they think they are?
This, oh so much. They already had mechanic with marshal calling soldiers for campaign. Just refine it so that realm won't end up camping by a castle for a week before going home and allow mercenary players walk up to the marshal and hire themselves for its duration. Also, faction specific contracts. So that I won't recruit an elite troop of Faction X and get myself huge morale penalty because Faction Y, my employer, went to war with Faction X.Grimaldus said:

Lol. Some form this year? I thought we could get a full release this year !!
I get thw feeling the developement of the game is even nit started yet. 5 years for nothing.
Were they? Let's get back to some examples of them talking about 2016 goal...mcwiggum said:

I can dig further but I doubt I will find at least one example of them saying "Yes, we're definately putting the game in some form in players hands by the end of 2016".
And now they are confident.
The only concern I have on the release is the statement they haven't decided how many troops you can have on the battlefield. I don't know how much testing and changes in coding that requires but I would have thought that would have been decided early on.
I'll still go September though.

That was a great article. I'd really love to know more about these clans within factions and how exactly it affects the game as a whole. It's one of my favourite new features.

and you would be wrong
they have a idea of how many troops they want (say 300 on each side). But performance is something that changes over time as they improve the engine and add/remove features.
They will only be certain about it when beta begins (features are stable, and they have a clear idea about the min and recommended requirements for PC).
so instead of saying: battlesize is 700, and later have to say that is only 500 for 3-year old PC (~ recommended), they are being careful.
they did show us battles and sieges with some big fights if you are concerned we will only have 75x75 like in Warband
(we will not)

It's not the battle sizes that concerned me it's more the time needed to test it... though come to think of it wasn't it around 500 for the siege showcase?

well they are changing a lot about the game. The article says it is something between Skyrim and CK2.
more quests, dynamic world, skill system from Skyrim, perks, traits, .... so you could play it like a RPG (mod/play mods that focus on small parties of 10 man, instead of armies)

No I'm not, I'm referring to how long the Beta testing will take to find the most workable unit cap. More specifically what the most workable minimum unit count is.

Play a companion-only run and upload it as a let's play. I'd watch that. Small bands of Looters beware!

TW has 100 issues to solve, but battle-size calculation is not one of them
1) Game is finally ready for final testing.
2) Based on released date, playerbase data and sells planning they will choose a baseline for min requirements
3) They build a few machines with those configurations (either virtual or physical)
4) They test the game on them for a few days, collect data on performance, and make a decision based on what they want (example: lowest graphics, 30 FPS). Result: battlesize is XXX
5) Done
if you are worried about this process imagine what you are thinking about how they will work on game balance, MP balance, ... you probably can't even sleep at night thinking about all that
