so glad that pc guy finally got suspended. anyway, i think this problem is from the game and there isn't anything that can be done about it. If you say you had good fps before the patchie then it can't be a coincidence, maybe if you get a better monitor with more hz (more hz in a monitor=more fps in games), otherwise i don't know what to tell you, i have poor fps on castello so i never play it, and i;ve also been having fps drops in most servers i go to, but at this point i can only wait for the devs to fix it.

yeah people who get this game jump into conclusions wayyy to quickly before doing any research and not knowing what this game is about. this is not your typical sword slashing ai game where there are 2 swings with a campaign, it's a multiplayer with deep mechanics and an emphasis on skill. takes a lot of time to get good at it and its not always as easy as it looks in experienced hands.

Suggestions

• raise the points given to people joining an on-going horde game
  or
• once past a certain wave exp (10) new players automatically spawn with medium armor and keep points around about the same

those are good suggestions, but the whole purpose of the horde mode is for you to collect lots of gold/experience while having fun slicing AI. currently horde mode is kinda busted cuz of a patch they did a couple of months ago and they have confirmed that they will be doing a wholesome rework of the entire horde mode which is good news. but in the current state of the horde mode, my suggestion for you would be to NOT join a horde match which has passed wave 10, because by that time everyone has armor, weapons and you have nothing, and if you DID spawn with lots of gold or armor the other players might feel cheated cuz they had to endure 10 waves of saving up gold to buy their stuff while you just got there and you're all set up. another reason not to join after wave 10 is that since gold/exp is given for playtime, if you join in wave 17 there isn't even a point in playing cuz you have no armor, no weapons, no time to get anything cuz the final wave is 21 AND you'l prob get around 100-200 gold from it.

Hate the game, not the player.

That's like saying "Don't blame me for killing all those people, blame your police for not stopping me earlier!"
The players are to blame just as much as the lazy devs are. If it wasn't for the players who deliberately cheat, deliberately abuse exploits and bugs and glitches, deliberately are toxic and deliberately use every possible lowbob strategy to pad stats, we'd have a much nicer game already.

this is a terrible analogy and i agree with thecamguy on this one. you're saying that its the players fault just as much as the devs' fault which is in a way true but this will always happen in video games. players are always looking for exploits, cheats, game mechanic abuses, bugs and all that. you can't change how people will act if they find something that they can take advantage of. its like saying that players who play with the longsword/greatsword are to blame cuz they're using the most powerfull weapons in the game. should the players stop playing all good weapons so that the "abuse" can stop? that's not a solution and nobody would ever do that anyway. the team colours have been a problem since launch and the devs need to adress that and make ALL the skins, team skins when playing in in a team game mode. the whole problem to begin with is that the devs chose shit colors for the teams, (prob cuz chiv had them too) people who have low health become as red as the red team even though they might be from the blue team and that is one of the biggest reasons for accidental team kills.

You should stop commenting if you don't understand how forums work. Also you should stop with the cocaine or whatever you're doing that makes you think you're somehow part of the "31337" because you never use shield or bows. You're just another meta slave to me, running longsword or messer. I'm sure there are plenty of custom servers for you and the other "sword people", go there and stop commenting in the forums if you only know about sword fighting and nothing else THANKS.

i rarely comment on here unlike you pc. you spend your whole life arguing in this forum with 20 people in it and you're telling me that I should leave? get real.

P.S i never use longsword or messer, and I always play different weapons so go preach your "people's hero" bullshit somewhere else

how did the devs manage to chose the shittiest stupid map in the game to be used for a 1v1? Did one of them actually say to themselves that THIS is the ultimate map for a 1v1 ranked duel system? ANY other map with any other spot is better than this cancer pillar hide and seek bs. if they had put this ranked mode on feitoria in the worst spot of the map it would work better than the shitfest that is contraband. AT LEAST remove those damn pillars. its called a DUEL RANKED mode, this isn't fucking hide and seek cancer cheese 2020 mode. or just make all the climbable spots in tourney NOT climbable and its gonna become the perfect map for this. or just change the mode to any small space 1v1 spot on any map but PLEASEE for gods sakes make a chaaaange. people are losing braincells when they fight a 1v1 between these 2 pillars. I hope the new ship map is a good choice for a 1v1 ranked provided it gets released this year.

i'm having a brainfart trying to read what you wrote lol, can you write it in english

guys who don't know how the game works should stop commenting about things they don't understand. shields were never a counter to maul, in fact it was the opposite, the big stam drain on the maul has always countered and disarmed shields. and even if shields somehow countered maul, you're going with the dumbass idea the devs did when they buffed the short sword in order to "nerf" the cleaver. that's not how this works, buffing one weapon does NOT nerf another, NERFING THE WEAPON itself nerfs the weapon. since a lot of the people who post in these forums are new players who like using shields, I'm gonna explain it to you as simply as I can: this game is supposed to be a competitive game and shields have NO part in the competitive part. They had held block in the begining is so that casuals can play with shields. you're not gonna see 1 good player who respects himself playing with a shield. I agree that shields have a very weird place in the game right now where they're both trash and OP (in experienced hands) at the same time and thats why they've always been forbidden in comp mode. it doesn't matter that shields were meta in the real medieval times, this is a video game about being skilled with swords. using a shield is no skill, its boring af, only newbies use it and only newbies complain about it in forums.

too convoluted to do. 14 people would have to queue at the same time and all of them would have to be with different roles from one another, so ppl won't queue at all and it will be dead like ranked was. the devs had made a 3v3 skirmish game mode with economy but scrapped it cuz they didn't like it. In the future hopefully they'll make a viable ranked team mode that people would love to play. for this game its next to impossible to narrow down the perfect team ranked mode that people would always queue up for, expecially since we are a small community.

if third person is so unfair then why aren't all the best players playing in third person?

because the best players are skilled enough to play with first person without abusing the 3rd person POV, but the rest of the players like the casual base and even a lot of the experienced ones get cheesed with bs 3rd person plays that start their swings from the ground and it looks like they're doing chivalry balerina swings. also drags and accels are nasty if done right from 3rd person. chivalry and mordhau have always been intended for first person POV, but since most of the medieval games use third person and a huge part of the casual base likes it, the devs put it in, but they never perfected, so now its this half-assesness that is cancer to play against. I'm glad they removed it from ranked, and i wish they removed it overall but too much players will quit the game cuz of it.

I joke about the Patchie and beg for info on them like everyone else but I don't hate on the devs for being slow and taking their time... They're a small team trying to make a game that they love. I really don't like it when people actually hate and attack them or call them incompetent just for being slow...

They're definitely incompetent for adding cleaver to the game though :)

in 2 sentences you managed to contradict yourself in 2 opposite ways, your whole argument is now invalid

So there's really no good way to go about it, either I give an estimate and people complain about missing the time frame, or I don't give an estimate and people complain about a lack of information. 🤷‍♀️
You are the devs and you will do what you will do. But as a member in the community that's been around from almost the alpha I can tell you my opinion and almost all of the players i've talked with agree with this: while both cases you said are lose-lose for you, the better option is to give an estimate on something, even if it's like a a month or two away so that even if/when you're wrong about it, you'll still have communicated with the playerbase and they'll apreciate it way more than if you don't say anything for weeks and people are left wondering whether the devs even care for about the community or are doing anything on updates.

cheaters there will always be, in any game. People have been reporting a lot of cheaters and I although I myself haven't ran into such players (at least that I know of) there seems to be an increase in their amount for whatever reason. I don't know what anti-cheat system the game uses or if there is any, but as far as I've heard the devs and moderators always ban such people when they are reported with evidence of cheating. honestly the slow but sure solution is for players in pubs to watch out and spectate anyone they feel is cheating ( I don't do that ever hense why I Probably haven't seen any cheaters) and report their steam ID and record their gameplay for evidence. I wouldn't say there are that many cheaters out there but you never know. Also with the game being almost a year old, the average player has gotten better due to the vast amount of resourceful tutorials online so it's a little harder to tell if someone is cheating or not, but most cheats are fairly obvious. like when someone is surrounded by enemies and constantly block every single coming from 5-6 different directions they're prob cheating. So that's my take on it. Also I agree with what Jax said.

uuhh....i don't get it, what am supposed to be looking at?

the devs have never used dates to annouce anything, and with good reason. They are never fully ready or certain with patches and game updates because they don't know when they'll be ready and IF said patch/update will be functional. Each time they "fix" something another glitch/error comes along, hence why after every patch they implement a hotfix usually a couple of days after the patch. Its a trial and error kind of deal with them. They're new to this, they're not enough ppl to sustain frequent updates and they are always being pushed by the community to release a new patch because patches take a month or two to get released. Same reason why they released the game on April 29th 2019 is cuz they ran out of money and the community was pushing to after the original release date was supposed to be march 2018.

reinstall your game, verify your files, or contact a dev or someone from the discord who might be able to help you if that doesn't work

What Mordhau gonna do about that.?

they could add women to protect themselves ;)

stupid ass suggestion, nobody gives a fuck about women in mordhau. they won't change anything. Instead of balance or new content the only thing you're thinking about is women?! thank god the devs won't be making women any time soon so that memers like you don't have an opportunity to troll.

I want the rock to be Peasant exclusive again. Wtf are knights doing throwing rocks?
The rock was my Turd.

was there ever a time where the rock was only peasant exclusive?

you can't have 1 firebomb per loadout and have the toolbox with the same ammo. That would make it too OP and unstoppable. Have you seen how much time 2 engineers save in feitoria in the spot where they hide the nobles? if ppl have 1 firebomb per loadout, it would be impossible to win any invasion game. You're over exaggerating about the whole firebomb problem. also with only 1 firebomb, the commander and warden on graad would be able to hide like rats throughout the whole match without getting punished for it.

yeah, I don't think its gonna be nerfed anytime soon. tryhards in duel servers are always gonna be using this weapon, along with the occasional longsword
