SCRIPT:
Today we are going to talk about devs speaking on Vassal and AI changes,
UI suggestions and banned players.

Bannerlord Forum Link - https://bit.ly/2YQdTXh

Here we go:

- First we have a couple of players making a thread about a problem they
have found in the games code that makes it extremely hard to get a town as a vassal. There was a lot said and a lot of code analysis that was explained, so i will go over it in another video.

The devs responded to this claim and stated that they will get this fixed and
thank the players for their analysis.

Like i stated before, i like seeing constructive criticism on an issue with
facts backing the claims. Glad the devs saw the thread in the sea of
negativity and are working on a fix.

- Second we have a player asking about the lord AI respawn time and states that AI lords are coming back too soon with a full army after being defeated.

Devs state that this has been adjusted in a patch and the time was extended on AI lords respawn. Also asks the player if this is still a big problem in 1.4.2

Another player responds and states that the questions were asked out of
curiously and that it does not seems like a big issue.

Now for people that did not know, this was a huge problem at the start
of the games launch because lords would respawn with a big army near the
player usually a day after of being defeated. The devs then changed this so
the AI lords spawn in a random time, 2 days atleast and with 10% of their
party size instead of 25%. This fix happened in the 1.3.0 patch.

- Third we have a lot of players asking about UI changes that they would
like menu based Ui controls in battle instead of the number and F button
system we have now.

The devs state that all UI suggestions were sent to the UI department.

Also a player wanted a sort button for the troop screen where troops would
be sorted by unit type, rank and formation.

Devs state that the sorting feature would interfere with the selection
of troops for mission feature, but the devs have a long turn plan that will
resolve part of the problem.

Another player then states that they would like to see formation assignments that are saved through saves and that manually assigned custom formations would stay once made.

Devs state they are working on this.

Personally im a F1-F3 type of guy, so i dont have much to say for formations but better UI during battle so i dont have to remember what every number does would be great.

- Fourth we have a thread started by someone who was banned for six days
from multiplayer for what the player states as criticizing the game. Player
then states that all he did was say "r-word game." Then goes to say that
there is worse stuff said in multiplayer and was his statement worse than
all the racist comments. Also did not appreciate that the devs added a comment to the end of the ban, stating "please don't play the game if you don't like it."

Then the devs and players go back and forth, but in summary, the devs state that the player was spamming "r-word game" and state that the players statement was not criticism at all. Then the devs state that spamming negativity ruins peoples fun, but the ban was lifted and the player was given a global mute for 6 days instead.

Here is my take, first i think for situations like these, global mute is fine,
the only time bans are needed, are for cheaters or insane griefers.

Second for the player who was banned, just cause you get caught speeding while everyone else is speeding, trust me, the cop dosent care that the person in front of you was going faster, you were also speeding at the end of the day.
This being said, you stating that there is worse people out there typing bad
things, does not make you an angel because you only said "r-word game."

Third you, me and everybody knows that you were not criticizing the game, you got caught up and said some dumb stuff, dont try to lie and sugarcoat it, it makes your whole statement weak and i am surprised the devs even revised the ban to just a mute.

Now with all that being said, should he have gotten banned, maybe, maybe not, i do agree with mute though, i have played other games, was toxic and
spammed and i got muted. It happens, you learn from it, its not the end of
the world. Sometimes you got to own up to your dumb decisions, it happens.

That is all the statements and replies for now and if anything new comes up, i will make a video and keep you guys informed.

Lastly i am going to end this video in the same way i ended most update
and dev talk videos, i want to thank the developers for staying active and
bringing good changes.

Also as an early access game, if you are playing on the beta, do not expect
the the gameplay to be stable, it is a beta branch meant for play testing and
reporting.
