The nature of online forums makes it easy to gravitate towards problems while having the positives go unpraised. I’m for sure guilty of this myself, and I feel like a cheap-skate for not communicating my appreciation better. If there’s anything I’d want to have said with this patch, then it is that I’m incredibly thankful and impressed by the good work you guys are doing. It’s amazing to see that thatare still working on refining the game engine - that breathes passion and committment to me like nothing else. The performance improvements themselves are incredible, but to me secondary to knowing that there are amazing people working on amazing things.
I also love how you’re committed to keeping the matchups balanced, unique as well as less map-gimmicky. I don’t love all changes, the spirit you’re making them in keeps me excited. I feel blessed to play a game with people this smart and passionate behind it.
I’m very appreciative of the PUP aswell, as trying out new stuff such as these units are always mega refreshing, and shows the intent of having them Tried and testet before going live.
So far i’m pretty amazed at the balance is not completely off on many of the units despite difficult challange and new quirks and traits and how those will act within the game.
the work on graphics was a positive surprise aswell.
I’m looking quite foreward for the live version.
Only issue with PUP is nobody wants to play PUP after the first 2 days or so :<
Yes, I think that eventually in some future season they will do it with the HRE: I want the Teutonic Knight in Feudal (replacing the MAA) and the Hussite Wagon in Imperial (strong against infantry and light cavalry, weak against heavy cavalry and siege units)…then you would have 4 UU in the four ages:Prelate (Dark Age),Teutonic Knight (Feudal Age),Landskenecht (Castle Age) and Hussite Wagon (Imperial Age)…
good patch but there’s a list of problem to solve. i’m not even accounting the balance issues on the new units which was a problem created on this patch.
