a message to the community and developers(From reddit)

Users who are viewing this thread

Here, there is no upvote, you must actually deliver your point and stand by it, this is better.

I think people should obey the TOS when they post here (or anywhere) but they should voice their complaints as they wish otherwise. Even if it's beating a dead horse it has a benefit for the individual to say their piece.
At the risk of sounding corny, I just want to say I appreciate you and everyone else who has kept up with this game's development and pushed to make it as playable as possible so folks like me who just poke in now and then to peak on what's going on can enjoy a good game. If you guys weren't underscoring issues that need resolving, reporting bugs that need fixing, etc., I think Bannerlord would be a much worse game for it and what potential the game has by the time "post" development's concluded would be a far cry from what I believe it'll likely be (thanks to you and other very active and helpful people).

So, to all of you who point out the issues, dig up the bugs, and otherwise contribute to bettering this game which I enjoyed for a good month and a half before setting it aside for other games and such, thank you.

I just hope the banners aren't dirty and defiled by the time 1.2's out on PS4 since that really put me off back in February or January or whenever it was I last played...
 
This issue is fixed in 1.2 in my experience.
Good. Thank you for letting me know. It might seem arbitrary, but this issue was basically the straw that broke the camel's back for me lol. I also forgot the game is, like, 80GB on PS4 now so I guess I won't be installing it just yet since I was just intending to have it ready for ~4 weeks from now when I planned on getting back into the game.

Now I'm just concerned about cavalry A.I. lol. I can't remember the YouTube channel's name, but there's a prominent YouTuber I remember watching months ago who reported on update 1.2 and one issue that stood out to me was cavalry being quite bad against foots.
 
A barely comprehensible post about better communication. Oh, the irony!

To top it off the dude doesn't even know the name of the company who made the game... :facepalm:

Yeah cavalry AI is terrible against foot troops and vice versa, but the devs are aware of this issue and will hopefully fix it before pushing the patch to live.

Yeah. I'm hoping ~4-6 weeks is a good time to hop back in because the update stuff (including the last major update) looks like a lot of fun but stuff like this could really bog it down.
 
(Fourms only, this post is taken directly from reddit so certain parts might look weird or not work and do to the short time i have of this account, i cannot upload pictures to the site, so that i'm not breaking the rules i will not link the OG post until the 25hrs is up.)

I've made this post for two reasons.

A. A response to the posts that claim that Talesworld are not updating the game and that they're just using a skeleton crew.

B. Discussing the ideas for future patches of the game.

Before I refer to B, I need to talk about *A* I have my issues with bannerlord the massive leave, the delays, lack of communication, ect but the reddit posts ranting about this range from "the game sucks, they've gave up" to "Tales world should just do DLC's" that both are mental in their own right, as to just begin on the issue is a mess but alas I'm going to try go through this in a understandable way.

They have not given up on the game, I've put a image above I made that shows the update times, so to all the peeps that keep saying updates have slowed down and or stopped, they haven't it's fine, Calm down. To all the people that have this stale belief that getting on their knees and waiting is going to work, it's not either.

If we want this game to proceed with community support then we need to actually make our voices heard properly, enough Rants about the games development(we've seen enough), enough "warband is/was better", enough simping for TW or endless cynicalism, We need to focus on communication between talesworld and the community.

The amount of communication or the lack there of between Talesworld and the community is okayish, it's something that needs to be mended immediately, I'm going to go through our 'Best' means of communication, we have access to the [fourms] I assume a majority of players have used the fourms and understand that you can put bug reports, ask things, see community manager posts ect, but if you didn't know there it is, i hope with the introduction of Ecem & Nenad to the TW community support team we'll see more from the team, then there is [Twitter] the twitters good for immediate updates and they post frequently so if you haven't seen them I recommend you check it out. Talesworld also has a YouTube that posts half a year, and of course a reddit(Unofficial).

# A Message To Talesworld

To begin, I want to say I love this game and its community especially the community support that had to deal with all the hate being directed at them(on twitter and fourms specifically), this section is made to address how communication should be done going forward.

Updates, as for now we get messages on the updates of the game every 8 months or so, and whilst it addresses additions to the game it rarely mentions the future and that has caused alot of issues with the community, now in not going to pretend I'm a community managing master, I have very little knowledge on the matter but what I am going to do is talk about what can be done.

# Direct communication(Road map)

I believe a visual representation of the games future development much like [Duh_Talesworlds Post]would go a long way to helping the community understand "Where's the game going?" "What's coming" and increase the general understanding of the games development.

A *road map* would go a long way for the game and the community and I think for the sake of the development it would help too.

Please use the comments to come up with more ideas for communication as a whole(this is B)

# Finishing Statement

I want to end off by asking the butter lords/ladys of calradia their thoughts, ideas, and hopes for the game going forward.

About the Rants, please do not believe I was referencing you, we have all been angry with the development of the game at one point and its came full circle.

If you aren't aware they have a suggestions section with a area picked by the devs/community themselves.
massive thanks to the Staff for being so active and willing to help.

Tapadh leat for reading and good bye. :grin:
Hey buddy, your problem was using Reddit in the first place. As @Ananda_The_Destroyer said, the whole site just encourages the most pathetic and toxic behaviours.

In all seriousness though, they really mishandled the momentum, which has took a lot of the enthusiasm for the game out. I mean, it came out nearly 4 YEARS AGO and they still haven't reached 1.2? NI99A JUST HIRE THE MODDERS.

I say all this but I'm still playing it- however, it's annoying when there are bugs and crashes on stable vanilla.

@archaicwarrior if they abandon the game, let's hope the update is stable, and then us modders (I'm still learning tbf) will take over it. You think companies would learn from Bethesda. They made their games mod friendly and they managed to convince people to buy Skyrim like 5 times! 😂

And you're right re the roadmap, I don't know why this wasn't/isn't a thing from the beginning.
