This is my ideal wish list, its not realistic at all but its something they definately should work towards if their budget could ever allow it.
- More Diplomacy Options to make wars more interesting politically
- Better things to do at the early levels 1-8 because mostly all you can really do is level up via Bandit hunting or Arena fights or at the trainer- More quests would fix this
- Better looking face textures definately
- Succession wars, Civil Wars, Uprisings and Splinter Factions would be great
- I would love to see more SPY missions and gameplay focused less on larger battles but rather more on smaller close quaters battles, I would LOVE assasination missions and even to send companions off to kill lords/kings- I feel this is really missing from the game- plus this way you should be able to totally eliminate someone from the game.
- Being able to have a family in the game, you get married.. so you should be able to have your own lineage too just like the other lords, you have children who remain in isolation until the age of 16- the boys either go off to fight in the wars whilst the women becoming ladies-in-waiting, this saves having to make new models.
- Full Voice Acting (A guy can dream right
)
- The ability to marry companions
- Make catapults actually WORK!
also make more seige options, It would be nice if the engineering ability actually came up with a menu asking "Ladders, Seige Towers, Ram or Catapults" Alternatively too there should be more defensive options for castles. I would like there to be ram option definately as an alternative to Seige Towers, because they take too long to build and aren't as effective as you'd like them to be.
- The ability to buy a house in any town or city- when you've got a castle its fine, but what about at the early levels? Maybe I enjoy playing a serf?
- The ability once crowned King/Queen to select a specific Advantage for your kingdom- some mods did this once before (Native Expansion for example) and I think it should be in Warband because it really made your faction more unique. It should then also be possible to change towns to the governing factions unit type after time.
- Vassal States and smaller nations to beat up on. Might even be just as good to declare every lord their own independant vassal state
this way you could have independant diplomacy and essentially screw over your own faction. Braveheart comes to mind where the lords sign a pact with the British essentially screwing William Wallace. Would love to see this sort of dirty play.
- Better AI that can use the new formations system properly! I would be really impressed to see some flanking going on
- An RTS camera mode with Mouse Command Input
- Oh one last thing, this has REALLY bugged me, IF I capture the enemies King this should grant me a stronger diplomatic option where by I can get peace easier, and if the war is going really well, demand land from them too.
