Except Taiga. Still a perfect update.

Don't worry, we're aware and working on it!

What in the world is stab early release? Is there a way to release stabs early?

Early release is the initial part of release which can be blocked, but does not deal damage. Attack stages go something like this: windup (weapon is pulled back) -> release (weapon moves forward). now release is split up into early release (weapon can be blocked, cannot deal damage) -> regular release (weapon can be blocked and deal damage)

Already fixed this for next patch

Hey. Agreed this is a pretty glaring flaw, we didn't anticipate the community browser would be getting this much use right away (because we didn't think our servers would explode!) but it does point out quite a few usability issues. We're going to be focusing on improving it asap in the next few days.

If you wait long enough the server browser will load, and then you can repeatedly try to join a community server until someone leaves and you get in, and then you'll have 100% lag-free matches. The lag on the matchmaking servers is something to do with the matchmaker trying to connect a heap of players at once as soon as a slot frees up, so the matchmaker essentially DDOS's the servers. Marox says I'm wrong on that one.

Just to be clear, there isn't and never has been any DDOS happening due to matchmaking. The official servers had some issues unrelated to this, and were spiking in waves -- you'd see packet loss and everyone's ping skyrocket. This was what was fixed.

Yeah please, add more south america frontline servers all are full 24/7.

We're on it!

Already fixed for the next update.

For anyone unaware, I'd caution you against Googling "Von Shekelstein," but it's the last name given to a disgusting antisemitic illustration of a Jewish man that most would recognize from 4chan.

The bot was also naked, skinny, and he actually spent a lot of the time using the "cower" emote, strongly suggesting this isn't some kind of accident.

What the fuck, devs? Is it possible to have a single medieval-themed game that doesn't have some low-key alt-right meme bullshit in it? I know the devs aren't from the US so "alt-right" may not strictly apply here, but I'm not too worried about mis-labeling the political beliefs of someone who thinks that type of shit is funny.

Backer-named, unfortunately slipped past us. Will be removed. The bot names are random, but they don't actually have any behaviors associated with them, must've been coincidence.

better give the guy a fat refund then

They will be able to resubmit an appropriate name.

this was funny but this only works because everyoin in the game moves like ninjas. we seriously need better footsteps

We've had issues with footstep sounds in the past, and they're still a bit quiet. We'll be tweaking them as we go.

Amazing!

"Removed friend UI marker"

Shit, we were so close.

Don't worry, it's coming back shortly. We had to panic patch that out because the FPS issues were beyond bad and we weren't sure how hard it would be to fix. Turns out it wasn't, and we have a proper fix for it now and will probably be deploying it soon if all goes well with testing. This one really caught us off-guard.

bacon_and_sausage

when will it be back?

The hotfix 2 that introduced it back went live just now.

Please let this have also fixed the loading lock up on purchasing items bug.

Unfortunately not yet, we're looking into that though.

Is there a timeline for getting 64 ppl frontline servers back?

It depends on the region, we have some slightly weaker CPUs deployed for servers in certain regions to match demand and those can't run 64p that well. EU is almost entirely 64p, we'll be adjusting for the US in the future as well.

Hey, Do you guys have any plans or intentions to make a performance/optimization patch?

The boys and i are struggling with frames, frost map ruins fluid for example but the Forrest one is really slow. Otherwise we are having a great time, keep it up, it's amazing

We take optimization seriously, our last big pass was before release, but we will undoubtedly revisit it in the future.

My home page says Release Build #4. I’ve restarted multiple times and looked through steam but there doesn’t seem to be an update available. Is build 4 the same as patch 5 or do I need to install the patch in a different way?

Was an error on our part regarding naming

Why would the solution be disabling ladders? That makes literally no sense to lock off pathways and areas. Just let the AI climb them, problem solved.

It's very easy to abuse AI that climbs ladders, they'd basically be lining up for free hits one after another, just like in Mount & Blade sieges :)

I used my 10k gold to buy weapons.

Nearly half the weapons took my gold but didn't unlock.

Is there any plan to compensate players like me?

I got 10k because of issues, then lost nearly all of it due to more bugs.

You didn't lose the gold. It may appear to have disappeared, but it's still there, so don't worry. We're not sure yet why that happens and are looking into it, but it'll return, either on restart of the game, or steam. Some people needed to reinstall as well. We're looking into it.

This is an extremely rare bug that we only saw once before. Some anecdotal evidence can help, like if others see him tiny as well, etc.
