Patch Notes e1.2.0 & Beta e1.3.0

[King Suleiman]

There a huge logic problem in the game!

Lets say you want to improve your realtionship with noble XY.
a) your look at his enemies
b) now you go out and hunt one of his enemies and make it your prisoner
c) then you go back to noble XY and give your prisoner, his enemy, to him - for free (or money)
d) BUT the relationship of noble towards you stays the same WHY?

this makes no sense and destroys a great potenial feature of the game as rogue.... bounty hunting!

I would suggest the noble xy should pay either a lot more for the his enemy prisoner or he/she shoould like you more after.

I also tried the third possiblity and executed his enemy...
guess what my relationship him went DOWN -10 Point ... makes no sense at all

So for patch 1.4 it would make sense to change this part of the game AND unlock the bounty hunt!

You don't even get relationship for fighting with and helping nobles in battles, literally it's only the voting influence thing right now. I wouldn't hold your breath and too much more too soon as there's a loooot missing.

You can also raise relation with nobles by doing quests for them.

I also recommend this mod which raises relations when you fight along side allies: https://www.nexusmods.com/mountandblade2bannerlord/mods/463

Yep, I use that myself actually. It's one of the ones that actually is maintained and updated. It's sad to see 80% of the top mods endorsed haven't been updated in like 2 weeks...

Does anyone have the issue when your party wages (Daily Gold Change) get deducted from your overall treasury 2 to 3 times a night?

Wages seem to be a bigger problem in 1.3.0 than in previous patches.

Ok If you join a faction.. and they have Trial by Jury and Dacred Magesty already on. your faction and your self can not do to much.You get a -1 INFLUENCE each day from them... thats giving you a -2 a day.. thats ok as there are alot of pluses you can get put in. but you will not get a chance to put them in as you will be on -0 INFLUENCE so fast.
This means you can not build an Army by the time it takes to find some one to kill you will be -30 i have been there so much now and can not get to a plus.. ok then i thought put my companions into parties give them men and get them to join me in an Army as it costs 0 INFLUENCE ..But no as i am -30 now i cant. so i then looked at the factions Clans.. and now there are only 3 clans that have INFLUENCE the king being one.. the rest all with a - something so they cant get there members to join them as well.
One thing is the game runs nice as it is now with this, but its to much.a -1 each day on these is way to much maybe -1 a week or - 0.1 per day.. Guys that are playing with old save and have lots of Influence will not see this but guys that start a new game will..

-2 is not as bad as it might look. Donating prisoners to allied dungeons in towns and castles gives a lot of influence. Higher tier units are worth quite a bit, but even looters do. If you can get yourself a town, you can build a forum that gives +1-3 influence per day. If you want everyone to drown in influence, spend your first 50 to vote for "council of the commons", its pretty broken how much influence it gives. You will need a fief (castle or town) to profit from that though.

P.S.: Search function is your friend.

I really hate what they did to the Pethros clan. I hope it was unintentional.

e.1.3.0 may come today with new features.

 

[Ivydude0]

Love the changes and I am glad that the childbirth rate was lowered, but since that was put into effect, I haven't had a single child and I've almost always had my wife in my party. Also for clarification, We are both of the correct ages to have kids.

I have seen lords are still changing sides way to soon. once they lose there castle or town and War ends they leave there faction.. I see one join our faction.. but once we ended the War and we did not give them a castle they left again and went to another faction who ended up having war on us.so we are still getting a little steamroll because of this.all that needs to be done is for the lords to stop changing sides when they lose there castle , or it will be of with there heads...hate people changing sides to soon... also i am playing a girl this time age 37 no one will marry me.. cant be to old if so that needs to be changed just some little things that need fixing...

I'm seeing stuttering again on Beta 1.3 branch. It is occurring in 2 areas. 1, during battles when many troops are retreating, dying and spawning and 2 during sieges of castles that have lots of fires and the red dust coming off peoples feet (particle effects I would guess).

I run a nvidia 1070 overclocked and a intel i7700k 4.2 (overclocked to 4.. Running at the moment with many of the setting set to low.

Callum, my dear community manager, would you please at least tell us if TW has the intention of giving us a road-map? It's the least you guys can do, so far we've been running around in circles trying to give feedback (at least most of us) and there has been no sign what-so-ever that we're either being heard or if some suggested elements are already planned to be into the game (which turns pointless threads into a common issue, for I am certain that many things that we talk about are already planned, or are even already being developed). Now, more than ever, some "developer blogs" would be useful, as is, we are completely in the dark here, which makes it quite difficult to even talk about relevant things to help the developers.

Ok, that's about it, thank you. (if you ever read this I mean)

It's the least you guys can do, so far we've been running around in circles trying to give feedback (at least most of us) and there has been no sign what-so-ever that we're either being heard or if some suggested elements are already planned to be into the game (which turns pointless threads into a common issue, for I am certain that many things that we talk about are already planned, or are even already being developed). Now, more than ever, some "developer blogs" would be useful, as is, we are completely in the dark here, which makes it quite difficult to even talk about relevant things to help the developers.

Ok, that's about it, thank you. (if you ever read this I mean)

?
Also we dont need dates just a list will do on what you hope to get put into the game this will stop many posts going up that dont need to.. from players that are a little peeeeed of..

Your the Best ..Thanks.
