We wanted to be more available, open, and transparent, and as part of that new approach to our communication, we started these weekly updates to give you a sneak peek of what we are currently doing in the development of Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord, introduce you to the team that is making the game and tell you about our future plans and intentions…</p></br> [/parsehtml]Read more at: http://www.taleworlds.com/en/Games/Bannerlord/Blog/71

Sounds like a half-time summary.

If you're referencing your custom title, any global moderator or admin can give you one of those. They're not actually TaleWorlds employees.

Give me one too !
It shall be "forum eloquent"

At least that means that my prediction was not disapproved by Taleworlds.

I shall depart for now and see you on the release date announcement next year in August.

If you ask for one, you get one like mine.

Troll accounts don't get to see a release, ever.

You can't just ask for them, they are earned!

He was a real flexible prophet.

 

[Roccoflipside]

Lol last time someone asked for a custom title it ended badly. Ask Ki-ok-khan (hope I spelled that right)

But what if he was right all along?!

Some life advice that I've been trying to put into practice lately is to look at the positive aspects in everything: so the way I now see this lack of a release date (and even if we dont get one at Gamescom or its very far away), is that I can put off buying a new gaming machine for longer, which means that I will get more for my money in the long run! Hell, maybe I will buy a new machine to pay both Bannerlord and Cyberpunk 2077 at some point in life!

I’ve cracked the Taleworlds release date formula: Release date=Current date+6 months

Taleworlds has been using it since they adpoted their trademark SoonTM. We shouldn’t be asking for the release date, we should be asking them to update the formula. We won’t be any closer to release until they do.

 

[Inarius]

Well, i don't see him as a troll, for sure. Next year august looks like quite optimistic (and I'm not telling this for trolling, I just remember how many times I thought the release was due to be in the next 12 months...). After all, I'm sure that if i said "the game will be released, FOR SURE, in 12 months", 90% of people here would be happy.

Another catch-22 situation, just like getting a custom title. If you ask for it, you won't get it or you will regret it, but if you earn it you are banned for trolling.

You see, you might speculate about the release date and that's fine because you have plenty of other activity in your account. The troll here had created an account specifically for spamming his prophesies, including MP nick, name, avatar, signature, location, etc. His only 6 posts were here and about that very thing. That's where we draw the line.

 

[LAST_ACTION_HERO]

Not long until Gamescom now, we will have something nice to share with you all there.

Next Thursday on 9th August is my Birthday, so I expect as new Dev Blog " Release Date on 9 August 2019 " Callum, come on do it!!!

If you do this, I will consider  Buying you a Pony 

WHAT DO YOU CURRENTLY WORK ON?
“Right now I’m perfecting the finishing touches for my CV and searching the forums for a gullible candidate to replace me. Taleworlds held Frank prisoner until he duped me into this job as a PR hostage.”

keep joking, you just made yourself candidate number 1. Expect a TW recruiter to visit you very soon (tm).

No problem. I belong to a survivalist cult. My nuclear bunker is stocked with enough baked beans to stand a 30 year siege by recruiters or anyone - provided the ventilation system keeps working.  Where’s that air freshener?

Yes same here still have tons of SPAM from the Y2K Crisis, ready for any fallout Scenario but I am also bored with my job in Designing machinery... would love a change, so if Talewords is hiring I could either do 3D Artwork or play around and design other stuff or just making Battle maps in the Editor, I would do that even as a part time job while Travelling again the USA in a RV, then I would not even mind the pay... currently in Europe but its so hot here from the heatwave it could be a Safari or in Australia playing Mad Max 

Where do I apply?

Yayyy! Happy "One more year delayed" anniversary!

Why not tolerating some trolls ?
We need some color.
I mean forum is a bit stagnant nowadays. We didnt get a blog this week and blogs are getting more and more disinformative.

tell the truth there is no game hah ?

This forum is for discussion of Bannerlord so Taleworlds developers can read the boards and recieve feedback to improve the game. Not a place to relax and post meme images and jokes for laughs. If the board is quiet, then it means there is no problem with Bannerlord as by community standards and should stay that way. Trolls only exist to clog the forum with useless spam.

Thing of it is, trolls are like bacteria or viruses. You just can't eradicate them and in their own way, they serve a purpose. I generally get a good laugh from trolls no matter how ... troublesome they might be. You have to remember, this is the internet, trolls were practically invented and sophisticated here over the past decade-decade and a half. And I disagree, a quiet forum is a boring place to be, especially if the blogs are to keep with the trend of inflicting boredom.

That being said, I am not necessarily advocating for this individual and others like it/he/she/them, but I am pointing out that is useless to try and drive them away, exile, or ostracize. They can and always will be here. So why get all wound up? Ignore them or give them a good laugh. If you don't understand what I am getting at, read the Thomas Covenant Chronicles by Stephen Donaldson. You'll understand why it is essential to laugh at despair.

As for this blog, you know I do not think its uselessness is a reflection of anything good on the wind. Although in prior posts I said I wouldn't speculate, time has ravaged me, plus reading all the posts since. I think TW isn't ready for any ground-breaking release of information. I don't think anything happened to their programs or vital codes, I just think they want to achieve a lot and underestimated heavily the time it would take.

So if we have already waited for 10+ years, what will another couple hurt (unless you're on your deathbed ...)?
