Hi all, firstly want to say that before this update this game was the actual dogs dangleys, best game I have ever played and literally everything I’ve wanted in a game and was literally the only game I would play on repeat, have sunk so many hours into this game. Booked a whole week off work when it was released to console.
However since this update, this game is now unplayable and it sucks. To the point where it’s literally not even enjoyable anymore which is so gutting. Went from 100 to 0 literally overnight.
Firstly for me, the battles are just ridiculous now, in the sense that now even if I have 500 elite banner knights I can still get whooped off 300 foot men. And simulated battles are even worse I can literally lose whole armies to peasants like what has actually happened here? It was never like this before. What is the actual point in playing bannerlord if I know gonna lose half to most my troops in nearly every battle I engage in. It makes it even WORSE when the whole game is just 1000mph warfare. I set all my lords to defensive tactics yet tho just go on blitzkrieg mode and try and seige every single castle in their path relentlessly. So so sick of being constantly caught in a loop of trying to garrison a castle I didn’t want, having that castle then be seiged while my armies are seiging another castle I don’t want. Has no one ever heard of slow and steady wins the race. Disband the armies you say? Well I would if they didn’t just reform the actual second i disband them and carry on just being little s**** doing what they want.
Also this fog of war is just annoying, I like the idea in theory for those who like a challenge but we should have the option to toggle it on and off.
Weirdly I’ve had none of these corrupted save files that a lot of people have had, although it does crash usually every 20-30 mins after coming out of a city and it freezes, although I don’t feel to bitter about those as on a very old Xbox one.
Also that beard glitch is weird.
I do love this game but seriously needs some work put back in. Took a week off work for the update only to have my army decimated by peasants constantly and the game rendered pretty much unplayable. Not a fun week.
