  1. PoP planned for Bannerlord ?

    Fat agree from me
    Hi Saxondragon,

    Super excited to hear that yourself and your team are dedicated to bringing PoP to Bannerlord. The biggest drawback I saw in the mod (besides the fact that it's barrier to entry was pretty high if you're not cheating (if you're bad at the game like me, lol)) was the vanilla warband combat system, which has gotten a little dated. Of course, we'll have to wait a while, but I'm already mentally salivating at the possibilities of bringing this rich world to Bannerlord's updated engine.

    Was just curious, now that PoP seems to be set to move into pre-production relatively soon, is there any way we, as fans, will be able to support you and your teams venture? I'm not much of a coder so I probably wouldn't be able to contribute directly to the development process, but I (and I imagine some others) would probably be happy to drop a certain amount per month via a Patreon or something if it would help you guys substantially.
    No worries if it's not something you've thought about yet, but I think I speak for a not-insignificant portion of fans who want to help you bring this vision to life!
  2. PoP planned for Bannerlord ?

    Thank you Pind for the words of support and encouragement. I am in the ending stages of another project now with a permanent development team. When we are finished, then I will turn the teams attention to POP and Bannerlord. It is not quite that simple as a direct port, as the structure of Bannerlord is not the same as it is in Warband. The clan system for example is integral to Bannerlord and it is not present in Warband. Warband we can own villages, and in Bannerlord that is not possible. The analysis and design needs to answer "where do we cut from or add to" in order to create the ending product. No matter the answer, there is extensive design, artwork, coding and time. I am not so worried about risk here as I am confident we can create an experience that everyone will enjoy for many years. The real question I am interested in answering is "What is the experience, and at what stage of play, do we want to implement?" For example, both POP, Warband and Bannerlord have issues during the latter stages of game play where the game becomes a grind. We need to create different types of challenges and systems to interact with to make play more "succulent" at that stage of the game. One of the more interesting aspects of the Mount&Blade (all versions) system is the transformative mode of play. You and your character grow in terms of what can, and indeed should, be interacted with during play. When we start out we pretty much ignore the larger political game and focus on a single character a few companions and a smattering of soldiers and doing missions. As we "Grow" we start to play the larger game surrounding kingdoms and lords and relationships. In POP we began to address that with the Knighthood order concept. I think that was a good first step, but still needs more pathways to follow and more intrigue, diplomacy options, lord interactions, and Knighthood order interactions to round out that end game experience.
    Thank you for your hard work, and for your great POP mod. Made on the basis of Warband, it is so different qualitatively, in every sense. I still play it to this day because it's fun. It has long been subscribed to the pages of POP in various social networks in order to find out news, thoughts about the release of POP on the Bannerlord platform. Seriously, the new POP is intriguing before it even hit development. Will Mattenheim show up, Barclay? What is beyond the forests of the Noldor? or the Rocky Mountains? It's all wildly interesting and intriguing
    I think many would be grateful if you found the time to drop a couple of lines about POP on BL))))
  3. What Happened with Groups?

    Partially agree with the author of the post. On the one hand, the new system is cool, convenient and timely. But she has serious shortcomings. For example, in the new system, it is impossible to single out spearmen or pikemen into one group. Separate Battania elite archers from other archers or skirmishers. You cannot assign a role to a companion: if a companion is on a horse, he will join an infantry group in battle, unless he is appointed as a cavalry or mounted archer sergeant. You can't separate shock troops from shield bearers.
    And at the moment, when hiring companions, it became necessary to look at their skills in order to understand whether they would be useful in the squad as sergeants or not. Previously, there was no such need.

    In beta 1.7.1 Not fixed. In 1.7.0. same problem

  6. Resolved Rescue Your Family Crash

    Same problem
  7. Resolved Frequent FPS drops

    The same problem with falling fps. But only in a single player game. Appeared with patch 1.7.0.
  8. Petition to return to the pre 1.7.0 method of assigning troop types.

    I agree with the author of the post. But I also think that there is no need to return to the old system. Perhaps it is worth combining these two systems.
  9. Resolved the ability to distribute the player's companions and troops has disappeared.

    In previous versions, it was possible to assign troops and satellites to certain units (infantry, archers, horse archers, cavalry) by choosing a flag with a Roman numeral. B 1.6.5. and 1.7.0. this opportunity has disappeared, which is extremely inconvenient when developing companions of heroes.
  10. SP - UI Day per season (per year)

    It would be great if the campaign settings had the ability to change the number of days in a year (season). This would allow players to speed up or slow down the passage of time. Also, it would be great to diversify the existing game.
  11. SP - General Make Noble Troops Less Common For Better Game Balance and Immersion

    I think that the developers need to rethink the hiring system for high-level units. Including a line of nobles. It turns out that the player at the very beginning of the game, having neither fame nor glory, can easily recruit cataphracts and other top units into the army. I am sure that the set of these troops, in addition to the relationship with the nobles, must be tied to the player's level or to his fame.
