You certainly did. Several reports have come out of this thread for minor things, yours being one of them. I don't think slapping anybody in this thread with warning points right now is necessary or beneficial. What is necessary is this reminder to everyone to keep the discussion topical and respectful. What is beneficial is keeping threads like these open so that people can voice their legitimate concerns for issues with the game. We can't keep it open if the atmosphere becomes overwhelmingly toxic and discussion strays too far from the matter at hand. Let's get it back on track, folks.
As disappointed as I am by perks still not being fully implemented at this stage, I don't believe for a second that TaleWorlds has that mindset. In my opinion, unimplemented perks are milestones on a road map. The destination--and the route taken to get there--can still change at this point in development. They may have higher priorities, or are unsure of the final direction they want to take for these mechanics, but I think they have left them in so that players will have an idea of what to expect.
Cool
Cool
There is just nothing I can say about the perks which wasn´t said before so.
What´s your suggestion?
I suggest TW to talk to the modders of the community patch. You?
I mean for real, what do you want to discuss? The placeholder perks look good, they just need to be implented.
Sure.
(for free in their spare tiime). We are doing good!
I really don't think anyone really believes TW wouldn't fully implement perks just to piss off fans. I think it's just pure frustration at the lack of progress that we've seen so. I think my biggest issue with perks is the vast majority of perks are bland at best and inconsequential at worst. It feels like TW really has no idea of what they should do so they throw in things such as 2% faster swing speed or troops move 5% faster and even if it's working who the hell is going to notice it? Imho perks should be less plentiful but more meaningful and if you're going to give a flat increase make it more substantial like 20 or 25%. There are plenty of other games out there that have perks why not use some of them for inspiration?
+1 most perks are bland. Athletics and Smithing both have perks that add +1 to control or endurance or vigor. You can't come up with unique perks for each tree?
Maybe someone should make a perk suggestion thread, either here or in the feedback & suggestions subforum. I have seen almost no suggestions for perk ideas, even though it is such a hot topic.
Yes. I understand this.
The big problem with perks is either their incredibly boring and completely under powered or they're interesting but they end up being OP. Anyone who has them would be much more powerful ie MC and all heroes, but that means normal soldiers would be woefully lacking. It's one of the reasons why I felt like they should never have gone down this path. But if they tried to scrap the system now they'd get a lot of hate. Why a studio with this much experience couldn't see this is beyond me.
Totally agree. Its concerning to see how they try to make something work that is obviously not good. I would prefer seeing them throwing the system out and try something else. But I guess that would take too much time and cause even more people to get angry.
I kind of think there's room for both. To me, not every perk needs to feel interesting or powerful; a minor stat boost is just fine. But there should definitely be some key perks rewarded here and there for reaching certain milestones in skills that make particular playstyles more viable.
I'd like to know, along with basically anything about their creative processes with the character system. I kinda assumed perks were Ape'd from fallout.
