The Reason for Our Latest Big Wait

[stevepine]

Everyday on Steam Database, you can see all the testing that is apparently happening..... but it has been ages since we had a meaningful update of any substance so, what do you guys think TW are actually doing?

 

[Shun]

I suppose they are trying to fix the bugs that they found while testing.

 

[Alcedo]

I want to believe they are preparing something big

Don't we all. The biggest hope is that they've been working on the bigger content and are releasing it towards the end of EA.

 

[Blood Gryphon]

Hopefully they are fixing the day 1 bugs we normally get that are obvious after playing for an hour.

Another passive aggressive post ^^. love it

I'm thinking a major content patch that's gonna have a bewildering array of very obvious but only somewhat annoying bugs that we're all going to be aghast at.

Meanwhile, TW is gonna thanking God they didn't ship the test build where every single town hits 0 Prosperity in 168 days.

Probably everything that was showed off in the newest dev video which to me is good enough I am actually rather excited for them

 

[Moton]

The devs seem weirdly confident. It truly feels like they know alot more then uss (Yeah I know, I know. Ofcourse they do ) but it feels like they have a couple of really big things hidden and coming.

It's a light-hearted post. No aggression here. Sorry - try again.

Dont think your angry at all just discontent which is alright if so... Sorry for being unclear

I mean if you consider archer AI update and ranged weapon update big I think a major update is on the way

 

[MightyMidgit]

As a programmer myself, I can guess it's most likely option 2.

 

[AndrewArt]

Definitely smoking shisha.

Well, mexxico just mentioned that there is a delay because of a bug.

I hope that the issue he mentioned is related to the rebellion system which was added to the plans for single player thread

Think that one will come later on as he also said that someone else are working on it still. Im guessing 1.5.6 but could be wrong. Hoping for earlier

Ah well, thanks, that's good to know.

Sigh... seems like they are still just patching bugs rather than adding anything major.

no barber & sheep option, I know it's an old joke by now, but I'm still disappointed

As long time programmer that has gotten into modding Bannerlord lately, if their limitations with automated testing is anything close to the outright impossibility of testing that mods have, I imagine that their deployment/releases are nightmarish to say the least which would prevent them from ever commiting to a release window or cadence.

Also, after playing around with the Dialog and Quest system I have come to understand why roleplaying content is so sparse in the game...

A lot of the engine stuff seems top notch, but the Campaign System was clearly not worked by their top people.
