Not good enough. That leaves people like me out in the cold. You see, I don't like the main quest, but I still won't play sandbox, because it axes your siblings. I like the siblings being in the game.

So for anyone who wants to play with the siblings in, but without DIB, your suggestion is a big "**** you."

It's not his area, and he's said before that the current problems with pathing in sieges are not an AI problem (I'm not sure what he means by that, but it might mean the navmesh on the map is wrong but the AI is working fine-- if Bannerlord is the type of game that runs on navmeshes. Just speculation).

The modding community can't make much progress on the code, because it is full of roadblocks which force them to rewrite absolutely everything (taking an incredibly long period of time nobody is willing to do). People have already tried fixing the sieges, and while they got the ladders kind of working in Realistic Battle Mod, towers are still totally wanked.

Mods should be for expanding the game. If they're being used to fix serious problems with the base game, there's something very wrong.

Most negative posters in these forums still have some hope it can still get the improvements it needs to be a more enjoyable, immersive, and replayable game that isn't as frustrating, bland and shallow. I think there's a 50% chance it's going to be good by the end of EA, and a 50% chance that whatever's going wrong at TW keeps happening and the game is released left with mechanics in an unfinished or unbalanced state.

I don't hope for it to be the game where you can do anything- just Warband+ what was said in devblogs. If they can manage that I will be happy and I have always thought that was quite a reasonable expectation to have.

@Ragratt Rather than pressuring TW to release now, pressure them to pick up the pace of their work. If they release the game how it is now, I severely doubt we will ever get total conversion mods in any significant quantity because of the way the game's code works right now.

any idea on Charm, It's been 2 or 3 patches since last one and besides smithing that is only one left to do. Also for perks to be somewhat effective the focus needs to be turned up on many of them. Medicine, Roguery, Engineering, (riding and athletics more on campaign map) Some need serious help to level, especially why have 225 and 250 goveners perks when it is almost impossible to raise them to high a level, it's a simple fix to raise focus and should be implemented to help

For me there's two rather obvious ones. Smithing, which seems to exist almost entirely for its own sake, and Hideouts, which no matter how they're handled need a serious rethink.

Use the community patch that has it all implemented: https://www.nexusmods.com/mountandblade2bannerlord/mods/186

I'm just as surprised as you that TW doesn't see perks as a priority. Lack of perks kills all progression.

Ok, make it 0.001%, or even 0.1%. There is still a chance there, but in practical terms, that might as well be zero.
I just now downloaded the Defection Overhaul mod and it works in a similar way, except it's threshold (this is adjustable) is -30 influence. So a clan will have zero chance of defecting until your influence drops to -30. And that is way more radical than I'm suggesting. I have adjusted the mod's threshold to +20 influence. So far, I have had no defections.
Anyway, according to posts at Nexus mods, people seem happy with it. Some players even say they won't play Bannerlord, if it does not have this mod.

After a clan joined my kingdom, we conquered two towns and a castle. I let that clan keep those three new settlements. Then one day, while we were attacking another castle, they defected from my kingdom and took all their settlements with them.
Lucky for me, I had saved the game before they defected. So I reloaded the game and annexed the two towns from their clan. I let them keep the castle and one other town that they owned, simply because these were too far away to defend. A few days later, the clan defected as expected.
They had lands, and my relationship with them was high (at about 80). But the game calculations do not seem to adjust for relationship. I think it should.
In my opinion, clan defection should be 0% chance if relationship is 50 or higher. 1% chance if the relationship is between 1 and 49. 30% chance if it's zero or negative. 100% chance if it is below negative 20.

Not sure what planet you live on but on my one when one take an arrow to the knee ( or any other part of the body) one does not keep running. There is very little in bannerlord that feels real, not that im advocating for it for this to feel real i would be fleeing in terror at the sight of a few looters

I've been here since the first M&B, and I can definitely tell you that this franchise has been a labor of love from the start. These are the last people I would ever think would pull a cash grab or bait and switch.

I do understand and share the frustration about the lack of updates, but I think the extra time will be worth it. I'd just like more communication on a rough update target, since the weekly schedule we once enjoyed has fallen off. If it is planned to be monthly now, or still weekly, or w/e, I'd like to hear about it.

Sidrath said:

Thanks a lot for that list, KyDeezy! Didn't realise there were first-gen fantasy overhauls like Hammerlord... Could be well worth a shot, I'm at the stage where I don't think I could do more Bannerlord without mods.

If you had to strip it down to the bare essentials, the 3-5 mods that you feel have the most sizeable impact on your enjoyment of the game, which might those be out of interest?

cyresdog said:

True, but also its justified. If it weren't for the modding community this game wouldn't be played by more than a thousand players at the moment. Its that lackluster rn. So people crying for a patch, hoping it would bring something of an improvement of the current state of the game, adding just a tiny feature is the only light at the end of the tunnel they see

I find it hard to agree, have you played it extensively? I've been playing all day today with work on the side, since I can manage both, luckily. I have fought off more than ELEVEN Vlandian ARMIES in 2 separate sieges. How is this FUN? They just keep on coming with infinite recruit armies, I butcher them, they come again, rinse and repeat 11 times, honestly I stopped counting I think it's more than that. Reason for why I even give them the opportunity to come at me so many times is because I'm doing long sieges with trebuchets to destroy the walls first. Siege AI is bad, campaign AI is awful, Caladog keeps wanting to declare wars cosntantly even though we're already at war with 3+ factions , he takes EVERY fief. He has like 8 towns and I don't know how many castles.

This is the core of the game and it's in awful state. Yes you can grind away when you got nothing else to do like me while I'm working, but it's really irritating.

If you hate it so much, why do you not quit playing and wait until it's finished but instead get on the forums to whine about it? This seems to happen with every games forums, why is it?

The more I play the more frustrated I get. I play a whole ****ing lot. The only thing in the game that doesn't need to change is what it looks like (except the maps, I hate them). There's no nice way of saying it, everything in the game is clunky, annoying, cumbersome and needs a teacher to highlight it and ask TW to re-do it turn it back in by next monday. It's not even mean, that is basically what EA is, a rough draft.

The AI is horrible! It's an endless facepalm-re-set-fest anytime anytime I do anything but perfect position my troops and ask them to just shoot in the general direction while I personally slaughter everything that tries to get close to them. If I ever fight with an AI Allie they suicide all their troops and there's nothing I can do about it. If would just stay still I could use them, but no!

The formation controls/UI is clunky and awful and I have to do it CONSTANTLY. If I could at least save formation and map placements and choose it at the start of battle it would be a great QOL improvement. It's unacceptable to have to manually drag around and place troops, face and format them over and over nad over. I wish I could teach my troops stuff like a real leader! If Cav is charging make a skien! If Inf gets this close CHARGE! If you're out of arrows FALLOW ME!
That'd be so cool!

Swinging weapons feels like ****. Even my favorite weapon the Glaive is a clunky mess. It's a constant wrestling match to just swing left and right.... I don't ever want to stab or over head swing but it thinks I do. I wish I could disable chain attacks for my char in the menu, that would help so much.

There's about 2 good maps. The rest I have come absolutely hate after so many battles. Sometimes I just retreat over and over until I get a map that doesn't give me an instant headache to look at.

They need the video game version of Phil Spector to come in and fix their game and make it a hit!

Probably just busy with RL stuff or waiting for the tools to be released, however a lot are still being updated.

I'm running 20+ mods currently in my 1.4.2 campaign.

Quick question about 1.4.2 to those who have spent time with it, are the perks mostly implemented now?
