Thanks!

Good thing I've been too busy modding to be able to play the game that last few days...
Who the hell places the bugs and balance feedback subforums on a technical support forum though???? No wonder I didn't find it lol, makes no sense to me ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
But yeah, thank you for the link lol, I'll have a look at that once I start my next playthrough ^_^

Mods can't be every answer to the game XD

Is this the joke thread? No I am not...

Spear was so easy before this patch, and now it's impossible.

Please nerf this stupid faction. Horse archers are insanely OP in battle and there's no way to reliably catch them on the campaign map or outrun them. They are all kinds of dumb, and the fact that you kill them and they respawn with horse archers and just merge right up into another freight train army is just plain stupid. Every playthrough means I need to rush to the Northern Empire as a merc and help them to stop Khuzait from snowballing. I should've written this playthrough off when Khuzait stealth-sieged Myzea right before Northern Empire peaced out. I knew it was doomed.

Their start location and geography are 100% safe, their economy is possibly the strongest, their units are the strongest, their abilities are the strongest, etc. etc. etc. Tired of playing whack-a-mole against these guys. Just had Monchug declare war and be on my doorstep sieging with a 1300-man army in less than two days (oh, and horse archers are OP in sieges too). C'mon.

Originally I wanted to play as them then I realized it's just EZ-mode so now I have to do everything I can to eradicate them.

I won't even get into ancillary buffs like not having to worry as much about influence or food because they spend so much less time marching.

Typical scenario: Khuzait declares war. Rush back to towns and castles and see where the stealth freight train of 1000 horses arrives. Go there and hope you're there in time. They pack up and leave and outrun you unless the AI runs into a corner. Now they are sieging somewhere else on the other side of the map. Well, write that one off. Rinse and repeat.

There's still a lot to do regarding sieges. I had defenders falling from the wall then climbing the ladders and poking my dudes' ass. Or maybe it's just them being smart, I don't know.

Spear and shield is impossible to win against AI in tournaments.
They can hit me through my shield while blocking.
AI block too fast for me to even get a hit in.
So I just hit their shield and they can hit me through my shield.
Even if I block every hit on my shield, my shield breaks before their shield, even if I land MORE hits on their shield.

running an army of 500 to 10 looters is fun! 30 seconds to load 15 seconds for them to die 30 seconds to load out and repeat 2000 time wooooohoooo!

First of all, have you played any other game that has autoresolve? It is always punishing. It calculates the battle either purely on troop stats or it assumes a demented leader who dismounts his cavalry, puts archers to melee and then marches them all off a cliff.

Second, how do you imagine the battle will be calculated then? As though your troops were lead by the average AI lord with no perks?

Genlador said:

autocalc should be punishing, you are deciding between the positive of fast battle and negative of bigger losses. You should not have tier5 units regularly dying to looters, but other than that balance tweak it is entirely expected that you will have noticeably more wounded in autocalc than a manual battle.

In my game just one (1) person killed 3-4 people fighting against 900+ strong army.

Yet another example of time/work wasted on something that wasn't broken and making a bigger problem, that then requires more work wasted to fix.
Make game run gooder, make perks work and gooder, make kingdom diplomacy more gooder.
Don't make nothin bader no more

Oh please... You wouldn't know what whinging is even if you were on Reddit. The only ones whinging is you people who have nothing of value to add to discussions other than your useless and irrelevant reminders that the game is in Early Access. Thank you Captain Obvious for your absolutely worthless contribution to this thread.

Because it's early days in early access development, the reason for different branches is for more substantial updates and not the current comparatively minor bug fixes. They're obviously aware of the current state of the game, a thousand threads started by someone whinging about something they're working on is annoying for them, me, Timmy and everyone else who isn't a complete idiot.

TLDR; they're doing their jobs, so be shh
