Source: https://forum.kingdomcomerpg.com/t/patchnotes/42808

As far as I know it's not even comfirmed that it's comming out today. February 28 is just the estimated patch date.

>>14407882

He has to be wearing it already when you head to the mines in my experience. You have to get him at the right time of day.

This siege quest is fucking cancer. This game really feels like it goes to shit later on. There's zero challenge and I thought the sidequests were bad enough about just being busy work chores, but then I get to the siege. Why the hell am I solely responsible for literally everything that needs to get done? It's just a million fetch quests thrown at me before I can finish this god damn game.

>>14407900

You actually only need to finish one of those, the one that isn't labelled optional

>>14407892

Well fuck. I woke him up to send him to the hill, then went to sleep afterwards. Previous save was like an hour before that. Guess I'm soloing it then. Are there any consequences for not taking him along?

>>14407911

No, it's actually best to not take him.

>>14407919

I managed to talk him out of a duel at the end and part on good terms, what's wrong with that?

>>14407927

I don't know how you managed that since I had pretty good speech and charisma, but still failed that. Still, now that I think about it, his armor is pretty good so killing him is the best outcome.

Wonder if Hussites preached like this back in the day.

>>14407939

Nah, most of them were actually annoying 'holier than thou' faggots, which made it pretty hard to denounce them

>>14407974

How bad? like Calvanist or Mormon bad?

>>14407986

That probably depended on the preacher. But if you wanted to go against the church at the time, you needed to stick to the bible as close as possible, so they would have difficulties calling you a heretic. (which they probably did eventually anyways)

>>14408010

Hope we get to see more of the Hussites, how badly Bohemia got fucked even after Sigusmund dies is pretty interesting topic.

WHERE THE FUCK IS HANEKIN HARE

>>14408058

you still haven't found him you nigger? lmao

>>14407969

Are they using fucking excel as a bug tracker?

>>14408079

Look carefully.

>>14408082

>>14408085

Riddle me this: If they have a bug tracker/issue manager/project manager why does their meeting involve taking a picture of an excel table with a phone camera?

>>14408093

>Why can't I tweet this out to reassure our fans, maybe we should open up our studios to everyone instead

Anon, you can stop thinking now.

>>14408073

I'm pretty sure the quest is bugged. I have ZERO conversation options with anyone anywhere about him. My only option is to comb through the entire forest AND I DONT EVEN KNOW WHICH FOREST TO LOOK IN

>>14408142

I told you in the last thread to go north from Talmberg and talk to the charcoalburners. That or talk to Olena the town gossip in Talmberg.

They'll send you to a clearing in the woods to the north where you can dig up a dead dog (don't ask me why). The wife was meeting him in that clearing. You can then go and tell her to hang a garland on her house which will make Hare spawn at the their meeting pla ce where you can find him.

That's what I remember doing, anyway. It may have bugged for you.

gonna take advantage of the new thread and ask:

< how well does the game run on toasters?

I've tried it, was at medium gfx quality, and I was getting ~30 fps with stutters

so any hints for improving performance? I don't really care that much for muh graphics

>>14408198

Have you updated with the last patches? they somewhat improved performance.

>>14407876

So it's fucken nothing. Oh well.

Where the fucking patch at.

>>14408206

it was the fitgirls repack

I have my game at 1.2.5

don't know if that's the most up to date one though. it was just the latest torrent i could find.

>>14409193

I want to say the most recent is 1.3? Not sure I've been trying to download mine since yesterday.

>>14409220

no, latest is 1.2.5. 1.3 is supposed to be out soon and it seems like it'll fix a lot of shit.

They really could have made the main character stand out a bit more or let you customize his look in the beginning of the game. Could have at least given him longer hair or brighter colored eyes. I'm not usually one to bitch about boring characters but he looks like an NPC in any other game. If this were the Witcher, the main character of this would be somebody you might be able to play Gwent with.

Did anyone save the thing from the last thread (or was it the one before?) that made it so weapon damage didn't increase with it's skill level?

>>14409332

henry looks like he has fetal alcohol syndrome. it's the brow ridges i think.

>>14409352

well considering he is a bastard

>>14409332

I think the whole point is for Henry to look like an ordinary low-born nobody.

>>14409312

The only thing missing is the GOG installer magnet.

>>14409452

fuck, that guy is still making videos.

>>14409452

Wow, he must really suck at games. Or he tried to rush through the story while being horribly under leveled. Probably a mix of the two since he was probably trying to shit out the review.

>>14409452

How long until someone tells him that he can learn combat skills without compromising his "build"?

Not that it matters since he's got his head stuck well into his ass.

>>14409452

hah he barely played the game; his summary of the plot is something you get from the introductory sequence. Melee combat is janky if you don't know what its expecting of you, true, and archery just sucks hard until you get level 5 at which the game assumes henry now knows how to hold a bow properly.

>>14409475

He is well known for not being good at video games.

>>14409475

what did he think of Cuphead? was he one of those faggots whining about the difficulty because he couldn't get past the tutorial?

>>14409452

On one point, i would like to see what using wasd for sword slashes would've been like. I suspect a lot better.

>not having the GOG pirate link in the OP

>>14409452

Life is hard when you're stupid, and playing video games are no exception. I mean, come on, this is the same guy that said bayonetta is a god of war clone.

>>14409464

He got a girlfriend now, that ties into when he got worse.

Can your horse be stolen or stolen form? Meaning it, is it safe to put all of your heavy stuff in it?

>>14409795

your horse can die, but can't be stolen from. I think if you buy a new one all your stuff will automatically be transferred to it but I haven't tried it out.

>>14409815

>>14409795

I had a horse die once, from Cuman archers shooting it while I was surrounded by shield faggots. It was removed from my "Horse2 category in the Status/Inventory screen.

Then another time when I was in Pribyslavitz it got KOed temporarily then got back up.

So I'm not sure if they're immortal and just get stunned for a while or not.

Both times were with the Schemig horse.

I subsequently got the Al-Buraq horse because he can gallop for longer and when you purchase a new horse it allows you to trade in the old one. I don't know if it transfers items as well because I emptied Schemig's inventory first.

>>14409835

all the shit gets moved over once you trade in a horse, except for the tack, which is annoying because it'll overload your horse without the saddle and then you'll have to move shit to your inventory in order to put the saddle back on.

>>14409452

>He couldn't kill Runt

>Runt dies in one riposte

Can't make this shit up. Glad people are still getting salty over needing to spend time improving your skills.

>>14409869

he also complains about archery, which at level one it's possible to headshot enemies. I ended up killing runt in one headshot at like level 5 or something.

So I am on the hunting quest and I got two deer and can barely move from the weight. But the quest says I have to get rabbits. Wasn't the saying how real hunting is not the same as hunting rabbits. Why are we hunting rabbits then?

>>14409903

Go dump that back in the chest back at camp.He said hunting them with a pitchfork. Also it's the warmup, you'll be going after boars later.

>>14409915

I wasn't paying much attention, but Henry asked if there shouldn't be a bigger reward for the winner and I think Hans gave him money. That was weird.

>>14409624

And he moved to commiefornia. Signs were all there.

>>14409452

While there's no denying he's a faggot, though really, what do you expect from an aussie? he's right about the melee combat being awful. It's a good idea, but terribly executed. The lock on system is absolute trash, especially for fights with multiple opponents read: 90% of the fights in the game. They should really just remove it completely and go to M&B style, with a choice of WASD, mouse and fucking inverted mouse because it makes the most sense out of all the options. I have no fucking idea how it made it through even their non-existent QA testing.

>>14409452

>Yahtzee is shit at games

Who could've guessed.

>>14409624

He hasn't been good for 6 or 7 years now. Shows like Game Dungeon have superseded ZP for a while now.

>>14409959

He's british and a former goon.

>>14410012

Nice copypasta, but if you are serious the game should use a twist like MG Survive, whereas you think you're a nignog in some ancient times based on the lack of architecture, but later in the game, the Portuguese arrive and reveal that it's actually XV century and they have ships sturdy enough to cross oceans, breathtaking architecture, while you're still a FUCKING NIGGER

>>14408160

Read what I said NONE OF THOSE PEOPLE HAVE ANYTHING TO SAY TO ME

If you could just point to the spot on the map I'd be really grateful.

>>14409869

I beat up Runt while being horribly overburdened. I just didn't want to drop all that sweet, sweet loot. I almost couldn't move, got parried all the time and if I actually got through, did next to no damage. Then the headcracker perk activated and knocked him down out of the blue. I looted his stuff as well and then had to stab him in the gut, which was followed by the spirited fencing in the cutscene. It was ridiculous.

>>14409452

Its clear he only played the game the first 15 hours and gave up.

>>14409869

key to winning this game:

>Run up to enemy

>Get into Clinch

>Mash F button

>when enemy staggers press the attack direction lightly or preferably stab

>rinse repeat until everyone dead

The problem isn't the combat system, the problem is how the tutorial tells you to fight, it tells you in easily the worst possible way by introducing attacks first, when really that should be the last thing they teach you. Blocking and Clinching is more important.

>>14410068

I'm pretty sure that all random encounters respawn.

>>14409869

>>14410032

I killed runt by picking up a halberd from the fighting outside. He couldn't do a thing to protect himself. Polearms seriously OP.

>>14410028

I'll try.

What is your current quest objective?

>>14410064

But that's boring, anon. It's much more fun to parry and do combos.

>>14409452

It took him 5 or 6 attempts just for the bandit camp where I did it first time, and he couldn't even beat Runt.

So that's where the review ends.

LOL

People still watch these reviewers fuck me.

>>14410103

truthfully I've never actually had an opponent live long enough to pull of either hence why I don't use them. I've used a parry on some of the harder guys though like Runt.

>>14410120

>I found a bit of disturbed ground where a dead dog was buried.

They had a feast there, and since poaching is illegal they burried the remains of the deer.

>>14410117

I tend to let battles drag out a bit to make them more fun. Though unfortunately once you get to late game it's pretty easy to accidentally one shot everyone you fight, especially with a mace.

Thoughts on this?

>>14410144

I think your dog's retarded.

>>14410171

What helmet is that?

>>14410177

Decorated German Bascinet, the armorsmith (the one near the fast travel) in Sassau sells it. One my my favorites by far, going on looks.

>>14410136

Crowbcat showing that an ambitious dev couldn't push out all the features they wanted? That doesn't ever happen. The difference with this being KC:D is still a good game unlike the others he makes videos on.

>>14410171

>that decorated armor

Very nice.

>>14410188

Seems to me it's more like

/v/ HAS BEEN BTFO and is trying to justify their purchase.

>>14410188 (heiled)

yeah basically this

I am having a great time in the game despite some glitches here and there. Never really followed the promo material, so I don't have the feeling that they broke any promises. Looking forwards to more patches and mods, the future is looking good for this game too.

>>14410012

>The same bullshit was spewed with The Witcher III

W3 may as well have stuck a few nogs in there. That thing had less to do with medieval Europe than a Zelda game.

>>14410195

>Seems to me it's more like

>/v/ HAS BEEN BTFO and is trying to justify their purchase.

I never saw any of that footage so there's no butthurt there. I'll say though that if the devs were intending to do a console version that footage should never have been shown as this was no doubt during when the game was still very much a pc exclusive hence, larger numbers of characters on screen.

>>14410081

wait is that fucking horse armour? Where did you fucking get it? I thought it was missing from the game and the devs just left the slots in

>>14410244

Try along the cliffs east of Ledetchko, north of the river. There's a nest with a dead horse in it.

It's only the head armour and it clips badly.

>game fucks with screens brightness

Cheeky.

>>14410248

I guess warhorse were running out of money and needed to push the game out of the door pronto

Did they add extra quest save points or what? With how many save points I get on quests I really can't understand why people are complaining. Surely it is newly added and it wasn't like that since the start?

>>14410299

People that are too accustomed to quick save scumming. Even then all you have to do is play a couple of hours and then you'll be tripping on saviour schnapps as long as you buy them occasionally. Then again I always just quick traveled and slept to save, even if you're busy you can take the minute to quick travel somewhere and sleep.

>>14410299

I don't understand the bother people have made over the save system. People need to engage their brains. You can save at any owned bed, in other words if you spend 2 groschen to stay the night at an inn, you can save the game in the bed there. Or you can pay around 150-200 shekels to pay for the inn room permanently and you can save any time in it.

>>14410312

I am a cheap shit and just fast travel and sleep myself too.

Fucking babies, I swear. You shouldn't even need to think about such a basic thing. I just learn how the save system works and get accustomed to it. How fucking hard can it be? And I don't even die that often. Like I died once from running of a cliff or something.

This must be how it is when your brain is on Call of Duty.

>>14410328

Only issue is with the glitches. I've lost a fair load of progress a few times because random damage or something falling through the Earth.

>>14410340

Don't forget getting stuck in dialogues. And while savior schnapps is not that expensive nor hard to brew, I'm a stingy kike and don't want to spend twenty minutes mass-producing them either.

>>14410313

>I don't understand the bother people have made over the save system.

Here's a thought; THE GAME DOESN'T FUCKING WORK. If you don't run into a game breaking bug and have to revert you're the exception. So then you've got infrequent saves, very few slots, and a problem that can only be fixed with frequent saving at arbitrary times. Do you see the problem now, you double nigger?

>>14410400

guess what faggot, I've not had a single issue since the day one patch, so you see the problem now? Because I don't. Time for you to upgrade I'd say, upgrade. Up grade. Up your grade. Grape Up.

>>14410220

That's a e s t h e t i c as fuck lad. I like the full plate sets as much as anyone but I also like the "middleweight" look like you've assembled here.

>>14410364

> And while savior schnapps is not that expensive nor hard to brew

Once you unlock auto-brew you can mass produce them. The save systems stupid for this reason alone, all it does is punishes the early hobo stage of the game. I do think auto-brew needs fixing, but at the same time so does the save system. To ignore it is to ignore the built in redundancies the game currently has. The game would be better for it if they changed these systems.

>>14410400

I've only had 2 gamebreaking bugs so far and both were quest-related.

1 was killing all the bandits in Pribyslavitz breaking the fllow-up quest with Radzig.

2 was the Monastery stone quest involving Zmola which puts the game into an infinite load if you sleep or save.

Both are avoidable and I could revert to an older save because the game saves whenever you sleep and usually multiple times during questline objectives. So all I lost in the whole time was the bandit loot from Prib.

I;ve heard/seen from other people glitches involving flying at alchemy tables and such but I haven't experienced it myself.

>>14410555

>I've only had 2 gamebreaking bugs so far

>2 gamebreaking bugs

>only

have we become the cuckchan?

>>14410565

All fucking niggers must fucking hang

>>14410565

It's a really good game, world and story, but badly fucked by being glitchy as fuck. It's not bad because of that.

Bethesda games are equally as buggy but don't have the gameplay, world or story to compensate.

Where do you guys look for your torrents? I still rely on TPB and fitgirl repacks, maybe there is something I'm missing.

The game is extremely buggy and awaiting patches, I don't want to lose my saves. Is there any place that reliably puts up gog patches?

>>14410686

I've only seen them hanging around in the forest north of sasau

>>14410686

There are a few of them, but most of the camps are bandits. You should have found 3 of them during the quest at the Inn of the Glade for Matthew and Fritz where you have to collect 3 Cuman outfits.

>>14410686

On the road along the river from the Rattay mill to northern mill as a random encounter and there's an encampment along the road in the Talmberg forest.

Any patch yet?

>>14411020

But fem-henry is actually attractive.

The funny thing is because there's so many ways to advanced through the quests that i've ended up not meeting any bugs at all.

>>14411152

One of the few bugs I've encountered actually saved my time. It was during the House of God quest where you are supposed to seek Leshek, hunt down Zmola and defeat/kill him, tell the Master Builder about what happened, then tell the Quarry Master that his name is cleared. Instead the quest automatically completed for me, rewards and all, once I killed Zmola.

>>14411422

>Pebbles

>>14411433

Only niggers don't bond with Pebbles

>>14409878

Possible but not likely.

The combat is jank precisely because untrained you can barely swing a sword, which is not realistic either.

>>14411433

>he doesn't want to brush Pebbles

About to start the monk quest. Is the shit on my horse safe from being taken?

>>14411651

Should be, just do another save just in-case, just don't follow >>14411653 advice, he seems to have modded his game to be some horsefucker's wet dream.

>>14411674

/zoo/ pls

>>14411651

Yea. But just a heads up, thats one of the buggiest most convoluted part of the main quests and 9/10 you won't even get what you came for even if you think you did everything right.

>>14411665

>>14411676

Thanks. I'm definitely not looking forward to having to kill the guy, what with the psychic npcs. It'll be an experience at least.

>>14411707

I had a 20 in stealth so at this point all I had to do was stab him in the dorms while he was sleeping and nobody noticed.

>>14409452

This is the guy who gave a scathing review of Demon's Souls because he couldn't even get past 1-1, and only eventually warmed up to Dark Souls thanks to having about eight trillion walkthroughs on hand. Yahtzee sucks at video games.

>>14411770

Which version are you playing on? I've got 1.21 and during pribyslavitz I had stealth at 14. Every time I'd stealth kill a sleeping cuman one would instantly make his way to the body. Though, now that I think of it, maybe they were just heading over to take the free bed.

>>14411830

No this is the guy who gave up on monster hunter tri before he even got to the first fucking monster. Like fucking seriously he was complaining that he felt bad about killing all the helpless meat monsters.

>>14411910

I'm 1.2.5 and it seems to me different enemies have different levels of awareness. If there were any guards in there with the monks I'm betting they would have noticed, but its only monks and all of them were sleeping so nobody did.

>>14411651

Break into the monastery. There's a door in the south-east corner that leads into a cellar. Break through that door and leave some lockpicks in one of the chests. Once you are inside the monastery, you can go to that room and pick them up. The quest becomes much more bearable.

>>14411927

I was planning on poison, since the thug in the church mentioned Pious drinks a lot but if that works it'll be a lot easier.

>>14411929

Sweet, I'll do that. Thanks!

>>14411651

Oh, and you can access the stuff from your horse when you are outside the monastery. It's useful to leave all the doors open before joining. That wat you can step outside, take stuff from the horse, then get back in. The monks don't go outside, so they never use the doors and never close them.

>>14410136

no clicks for you here jewtube merchant,go shill somewhere else

>>14412056

Truly, a shame we can't actually wear a hood the way NPCs do. I got the same gear setup but with quiet dark shoes and with patched dark tights. I also have the "padded" perk and I have high maintenance skill fully trained so I can get negligible noise on anything I wear. I'm curious about that "Cuman disguise" cuman harness you have.

Also gz on having the resistance perk, every time I see a pleb henry posted without it I shake my head.

Now post your horse, show me that filthy plebbles

>>14412110

Oh and the disguise is from a Fritz and Matthew quest, I'm still wondering where I'm supposed to meet them but I'll probably hear about it soon.

>>14412144

You mean, you didn't resolve that quest by talking it out like grown ups the way your father taught you to?

>>14412151

Who is there to talk to, the vague term "plundering bandits" might have come up? I see no reason to argue against murdering bandits. The only people I've found in Skalitz is that cuman cosplay fightclub.

>>14412196

I'll keep it in mind for the second playthrough. I feel like it'd be nice if there was more for you to spend money on, since by end-game you're up to your neck in Groschen with absolutely nothing to spend it on. Eventually you just stop haggling over anything because it doesn't even matter.

>>14412205

Eventually you just stop looting shit unless its something you actually want to use. I had 51k groschen when I stopped looting and I still ended the game with 64k

>>14412152

Why are polearms so shit in this game? There's no polearms skill and you can't put them away in your inventory normally or even sell them

Is there a difference in the fast travel speed whether I sit on my horse or not?

I feel like it's faster, but I'm not sure.

>>14412269

Doesn't explain why they did it though. It'd be fine if polarms were really strong, like in FPS games where you aren't able to carry around a minigun or only slow-walk with it, but they actually really suck in combat too. At least the enemies with them are the easiest to kill, I haven't really tried using one myself.

>>14412303

I mostly use hoods for fashun but sometimes it's hard to justify 1 defense vs 12. I'm sure someone will mod the plate shoulders to fit over the gambison as some point.

>>14412138

>>14410924

Femrey would be awesome only on the assumption that most of the male characters would either try to rape her or turn her into a concubine. 10/10 would play.

>>14410306

>and it's run speed is slower than your own characters sprint speed.

Really? I never played Skyrim, is that true? Why would they do that? Doesnt that make horses completely useless?

>>14412547

there's some Cuman scale armour. I think that might work.

>>14412587

get yourself a shorter gambison. its clipping with your legs

>>14412599

I want to but I'm not sure if I've seen any gambeson other than the saxon one have more than 1 defense, and all the saxons have that ugly part. Also it doubles as stealth gear with 8/13 when I strip away my plate.

Any suggestions on what I could use or am I forced into a Pourpoint with 1 defense for the sake of fashion?

>>14412303

It's just the way the game does it. If you want max armour, you wear a coat over your plate armour to protect it :^)

I don't even know if this was intended given how much it clips. Hopefully it'll be patched out.

>>14412610

i just use the threadbare gambison

>>14412614

Is it just a random common loot from enemies? Tailor only has gambisons that go too far down unless they have 1 defense.

>>14409332

> let you customize his look

If they did that they wouldn't be able to animate his face in dialogs.

>>14409332

>let you customize his look in the beginning of the game.

Fuck that, I think you can handle a single 3D RPG not starting like a build-a-bear workshop.

>customize his look

It's always fun when you don't know what to expect from the game and build a char that absolutely doesn't fit. I once went for an ancient swordmaster look, and then met my mother and sister who both were many decades younger.

>>14412635

yes it is. its pretty common aswell. just go to that mill by skalitz and one of the bandits will surely have one

>>14412776

I got that helmet very early on in a chest in a camp to the north east of Neuhof, on the road.

Apparently it wasn't supposed to be there and is now patched out.

I haven't found a better helmet yet. It may be the best.

>>14412547

Where did you get that hood?

>>14410212

>>14410237

I have done everything you said but I have no option to talk to margaret about Hare. I guess It's bugged and I'm fucked.

>>14412833

That being said thank you for your help. I really do appreciate it.

>>14412804

yes but where

>>14412891

The upper left marker I placed is roughly where the bandit camp was. Though this may just have been a random drop from higher level bandits so might be no guarantee.

>>14411490

i love you mama

>>14412906

What's the green gem pommel sword you have on?

>>14412776

> this Bandit's Reinforced Jack just screams /fa/ but it takes up arm slots too and is kind of shit.

I don't think it matters if you're going for a light armor build. Can you check if it work with the perk?

>>14412939

that durability tho, I just got St. George's and I need to maintain it almost all the time, especially after blocking blunt weapon users.

>>14412939

How does durability work here?

Is it like Dark Souls where you go to a blacksmith and pay to have it repaired as many times as you want?

>>14412969

Either go to a smith/tailor and have him fix it for a lot of money, buy toolkits that can be used anywhere but degrade with use, or, if it's a bladed weapon, fix it on a whetstone for free. The latter two save you a lot of money but rely on the repair skill, so you need to start small.

>>14412955

Kind of weird, most chainmail counts as light armor, might be a bug or dev oversight. I dont think any gloves are allowed for light armor buff.

Jesus Christ that Strength/Warfare potion is fun.

I just drank one before assaulting a marauder camp, and felled half of them in the first seconds of combat while tripping balls and probably foaming from the mouth and screaming on top of my lungs.

I've got to get that recipe.

>>14413079

Artemis? I tried using it during a fight and didn't experience any trippy effects :/, although I was using other potions as well at the time. You can find the recipe in one of the treasure map locations.

>>14408154

That was my first thought.

If I've done all of the tweaks in OP and I still have crap performance am I pretty much shit out of luck?

I've been riding my i5 6600, 8gDDR4 and 970 for a while. Despite clearing the low reqs and having all of the options turned as low as possible the performance in the game is terrible which is a shame because I'm having a lot of fun despite it.

>>14412303

>>14412619

>>14412613

>>14412313

wasn't it historically for keeping water off of the plate and chain mail so it didn't rust on the march?

and it's gambison, chain, plate then combat jacket you peasants.

>>14413188

I have the same build except an AMD 8350 instead of an i5. I run it at 50-60 fps on medium with just the RAM fix.

>>14413219

Do you ever get terrible freezes, and how long are your load times?

I guess I'll try unplugging one or two of my peripheral screens.

>>14413230

No freezes, loading time on conversations can leave a bit to be desired but it's nothing crazy and I don't have an SSD. More than 10 seconds is out of the ordinary and usually it's lower.

>>14413237

Maybe I need to double check whether I'm using the launch parameters right. I have a gog copy so I just stuck the -heapsize 1048576 at the end of the shorcut exe target.

Finally got to the end of the monastery. Fair warning, you get fuck all for sparing him. Better off just hauling his ass to jail and then killing the bandits, stealing their dice instead. The monastery is god awful, it reminds me of some of the quests from Bethesda's games where they shoe horn you into waiting for shit to happen, actually my best comparison is imagine if Bethesda made Bully.. And there is your Monastery quest. Once you find the key to outside it gets easier, I just fucked off and ignored the schedule. On the plus side you can steal some satanic books.

But yeah Monastery is easily the worst part of the game and its a very much what the fuck were they thinking moment because it just isn't enjoyable. You're better off skipping it completely and just killing the bandits in the church because you end up doing that anyway.

Really dumb decision on warhorses part. I'd expect this kinda shit from Bethesda tbh. Its unanimously hated.

>>14413310

if you can open hard locks there's an easier method.

In the monastery entrance courtyard you can go up the steps and into various rooms. these lead directly to the Priors room. I snuck up behind him and knocked him out and stole his keys. the key to the forbidden books cabinet is also in a chest in his room.

might make it easier for you guys.

>>14413432

Mail instead of padded chauses?

>>14413523

Mail counts as light even without mods, including hauberk and coif.

>>14413336

>if you can open hard locks there's an easier method.

>In the monastery entrance courtyard you can go up the steps and into various rooms. these lead directly to the Priors room. I snuck up behind him and knocked him out and stole his keys. the key to the forbidden books cabinet is also in a chest in his room.

>might make it easier for you guys.

That's the method I used after realising trying to blend in was a total waste of time. Smash and grab is best. But its better if you can avoid becoming a monk all together (but that's only possible with mastering lockpicking).

You gotta admit that its a bad design. Such a shame because the lore building is excellent, but its easily the buggiest quest in the game. Also I should point out there's a spare key in the kitchen's pantry, which is the one I used initially and then broke into Prior's bedroom to steal the forbidden key.

It's just such a silly waste of time that ends up a 3 option choice, 2 of the options waste your time and 1 of the option allows you to progress as usual. At that point you might as well had not put it in the game.

Up till this point the game had been fantastic, though not without problems.

>>14413786

>>14413780

I hope you choke.

>>14412196

Are you approaching that nest from the west or the east? I can't get to it from the east and when I try from the west I always end up falling or stuck in bushes.

>>14414051

Come from the west, if you're careful you can proceed without taking fall damage. it is tricky and annoying though.

>>14414093

I believe that's the half way point. I don't know though since my save game bugged out a few main quest's later.

>>14414105

Shame, been having a lot of fun so I was hoping it'd be a bit longer

>>14410312

>Even then all you have to do is play a couple of hours and then you'll be tripping on saviour schnapps as long as you buy them occasionally

Or you could just make them yourself even. You start the game with the recipe for fucks sake. Buy all the belladonna in shops and you will have twenty fucking saves at all times.

Why the ass do guards keep searching me even when I don't have stolen shit equipped?

>>14414093

Be very careful if you killed all the bandits in Pribyslavitz.

For me, I did that and when I went back to Radzig to report the scouting mission, the main quest bugged out and failed.

Like, completely. There was no main quest at all. Killing the bandits fucks up the follow-up quest where you have to go fetch Sir Divish from Talmberg for reinforcements.

The only way I could proceed was to revert to an older save from before I killed the bandits and just ride in one the horse quickly to do the scouting before fleeing. The quest advanced normally after that, it doesn't really matter if you sabotage.

I'm not sure what happens exactly, it may be to do with the sabotaging of the arrows and food also; perhaps the game is trying to apply those effects to dead Bandits or something and can't, and the quest fails.

I'd avoid killing the bandits if I were you.

>>14414063

Well I managed to survive a fall only to have my game crash. Great.

>>14414170

>>14414146

I think reputation matters as well, with a high one they'll be less suspicious even if you have really high consp

>>14414146

Is your reputation with the guards low? Cause guards have their own rep. Its region rep, then faction rep, then individual rep.

>>14414160

Funny because commies are mostly drug addicted cunts.

>>14414093

Potions should be more balanced with negative attributes sort of as a trade off. Bivoj's Rage lowers defence slightly but thats about it. Cockerel potion enables you to stay awake indefinitely.

dat feeling when you do the stealth battles and decide fuck it, single highhandedly kill every mother fucker in the castle all at once, 20 v 1 wearing no armor at all, just the stealth uniform.

Feelz good man. I'm also glad that they didn't kill my horse off, fucking hell that was scary the horse panel was greyed out and I'm like Noooooooooooooooooo! Pebbels! NOOOOOOOO! *whistles* PEBBELS OMFG! GOOD HORSEY! Just fair warning though make sure you get your armor back because they only give you two times before its deleted permanently. I did the smart thing and hid it in the camp before I was captured, came back to it during the night bit and 1 shot most of the assholes in the camp. Most of the guys in that camp are wearing end-game tier armours. Good loots.

>>14414173

to be fair so does fucking wenches

>>14414875

It's a default Cryengine asset the devs so passionately forgot to remove from the map because polish

>>14414897

Any idea how to get to the chest?

Does anyone else just not bother with a melee weapon anymore? As soon as I got like 5 levels in Archery fights became tons quicker if I just use the bow. Enemies still can't do shit to me because of all my armor, but if they're not wearing a helmet with a faceplate they get one-shot and if they ARE wearing a helmet with a faceplate it only takes like 3. Even less if I luck out and knock them unconscious with one of the headshots.

Compare that to melee where I have to spend like 3 or 4 minutes just on one guy because neither of us can get a single fucking hit in with all of the parries.

>>14414909

i'm starting to think that the combat is more of a hard skill check than, anything else. i mean shit i ground vigor, strength and agility up via cheeze and now i can just spam stabs all fucking day and they just drop and after i got the furry perk and blood lust working it doesn't even seem to matter if they block or parry my ass. even switched over to light armor for shits and giggles and its still piss easy ended up killing half of sasau after a botched robbery trying to win the favor of that fucking miller.

I sure hope 1.3 fixes the fucking game problems.

>>14414875

>>14414897

It's an easter egg from the beta

>>14414900

By over-drinking and passing out you'll wake up in the tower, its random

>>14414909

Yeah bows are OP, I try to limit my use of them. Like anon above me pointed out scaling goes pretty wild so a light weight melee build is more exciting to me. Many enemies die from a single lovetap of my sword anyway.

>>14415018

I actually found a second hood while going back to rob them some more. On the second floor (above kitchens, below master bedrooms) when you enter from the stair, the door directly to your left has a hard lock. In it is a bedside table with a very easy lock containing said hood.

Why the fuck is sometimes now saving after a sleep?

>>14415102

it saves if you sleep for at least an hour in a bed you own

>>14415102

Are you sure you're sleeping in one of YOUR beds? It has to be one of YOUR beds to save the game, not just ANY bed.

>>14415107

>>14415110

You're right but some are buggy. The master huntsman bed doesn't guarantee save even though it's marked. I'm sure I've had some other owned bed not save properly as well.

>>14415102

>>14415123

Oh and you must NOT cancel, let it run its course.

>>14415102

Just install the unlimited saves mod lad. There's no shame in it, the game is poorly designed, it's not your fault.

>>14415455

that's because it is.

>>14408032

I don't know if the writer cucked or just made a smart tactical decision but there was nowhere near enough 'christianity' for that setting. The veneer was there but nothing deeper on it. Characters don't even reference anything from the scriptures.

>>14413614

I've been grinding lockpicking by repeatedly opening the very easy and easy chests and doors without taking the contents. Once you reach level 15 and can use the Master Thief perk, all chests can be unlocked without having to play the mini-game.

>>14415471

For some reason he acts like a civilian, if you hurt him outside of the scripted fight - such as having Headcracker proc against him - he will act like you did a crime to him (for example if you tried to knock out a regular civvie and you fail, there will be a notification on the right side of the screen that they have noticed you, and they will start avoiding you if they survived the encounter). After this every time you meet him he will refuse to fight, although perhaps you executing him doesn't count.

Any alchemists here? What are you spam brewing? What are some good recipes with readily available ingredients? I got to level 8 with Artemisia potions (sage and wormwood), looking for better/quicker options.

>>14416573

Aqua vitalis is just marigolds and dandelions iirc, so that to level up, then autobrew lazarus potions for dosh

>>14416313

Everything in the Bible was still written in latin and pretty much the Church has a monopoly on it, and there's the part where the majority of the population in the countryside is still illiterate, hope they have some more, they did cut out the Third Act.

They have a good basis for game set during the Crusades. If they want to go full shitlord…

>>14416410

>once you reach level 15 and can use the Master Thief perk, all chests can be unlocked without having to play the mini-game.

Only very easy and easy. And it's only a chance to proc and no guarantee. It's still a nice perk though.

>>14416573

Nettle and Merigod = Health Pots. Nettle is fucking everywhere, and there's a good bunch of it in the fields surrounding Rattay. I mainly spam that.

Protip: you can skip the auto-brew animation by pressing escape which means you can do it faster. The Butchers has like 30k in gold meaning I just sell my pots to her, there's an alchemy bench right next door. If you can get 1k of each ingredient you can make up to 3k worth of pots per run.

This is what I've been doing.

Why the fuck do horses' stamina gets drained instantly during combat?

Whenever I try to escape I mount the horse and he instantly drops me to the floor to get mauled to death. Is that a no-fun anti-escape mechanic or is my horse getting fucking anxiety attacks?

>>14418328

That shit happened to me when i got ganked after finding out Timmy's location.

Apparently it's a bug.

>>14418385

>That shit happened to me when i got ganked after finding out Timmy's location.

Same for me, except it's the second time it's happened. First time was while fast travelling and stopping to fight some bandits.

Seems it only happens after game interruptions (fast travels/cutscenes), just like most frame drops.

My last save was before entering the cave to find Reeky. Fucking kill me.

>>14418328

You sure that's not your horse getting spooked?

>>14418470

Pretty sure. When I mount him the stamina bar is empty, even if the attackers are far away.

Tried all the performance tweaks, but even with those (using low to medium settings) I still can't get over 45fps. Fuck this game.

>>14419259

>>14419249

Play at 1080/1440p with ultra settings/60fps instead. The extra resolution barely matters at this point, unless you're using a massive monitor there's diminishing returns the higher you go.

This is fun. Were it not for Sir Divish I'd have slaughtered you.

>>14421382

A very similar thing has been happening in the Islamic world for the last few centuries. The Arab world ironically reached the height of their civilization after the Sack of Rome since they inherited a large amount of the Romans' knowledge. They were also much more atheistic and scientific than the average Medieval European peasant and a lot of the Arab world's most known thinkers and writers originated from around the Dark Ages, when most of Europe was undergoing the things you stated. But they started regressing back to religious bullshittery sometime in the 1600s or 1700s and basically never really recovered.

>pic

That is not from the Voynich manuscript itself but from an 1980s book done in the style of the Voynich manuscript. I think it was called Codex Seraphinnus or something.

>>14422463

Thanks, I should've guess Andrew had it since he's a cunt but I was under the impression he didn't know anything about Adam.

I found out what the horse glitch was. I was getting up on it and instantly pressing shift.

The horses' stamina starts at 0, them it takes a while to loads up to the actual ammount because shit coding. If you try running instantly, it'll dump you off, because the game thinks you tried running when the stamina was empty.

Also, how do you use polearms?

I got a nice Italian Bill, but I can't fucking equip it for some reason.

>>14422664

Polearms are pretty much only usable in the areas they are found in. Shit reeks of DLC or expansion.

>>14422682

I had one in my inventory. Turns out you need to drop it to pick it up and use it. You can't do anything without dropping it and you can't put it back in your inventory.

That's fucking retarded.

Are there any mods that fix retarded things other than the saves? Only mods can fix this shit.

Is there any follow up to the Masquerade quest where I need to make a Cuman disguise to ambush bandits ? The quest finishes with a cutscene of me trying the outfit, Matthew says "it's only beggining" and after that Matthew and Fritz don't have any other dialog option. Is this a bug or do I need to do something ?

>>14422700

There's a few mods about balance and stuff like, there's also one that allows you to put polearms in your inventory too (you shouldn't have been able to do that without the mod, I assume it's a bug). I suppose more elaborate mods will pop up after they release modding tools, if they ever do.

>>14420756

…why does no one tell me these things? I was always trying to stomp with my heel,but yeah, I would get it with my arch about half the time. Seriously I'm just shit at watching someone do something, then emulating it. This is just like that time senpai told me not to pull up on the side of the wheelbarrow going down, but to push down on the side going up.

>>14422808

>There's a few mods about balance and stuff like, there's also one that allows you to put polearms in your inventory too

Nice. I guess

I should mod my game more. There's a bunch of dumb shit in despite the "muh realism" Vavra kept shilling about.

>you shouldn't have been able to do that without the mod, I assume it's a bug

You can't even sell polearms, so I'm guessing it's a "feature".

>>14422961

I actually finished that quest, it's just that once you complete the costume, you get a new cutscene of you trying the "real" one with feathers and bones on it, then Matthew says "we're just getting started". After that, the quest completes and you get a Cuman disguise in your inventory but there is no follow up quest even if everything leads up to think that there is.

>>14422808

>>14422961

I have a bug where I can't tell Matthias the time they arrive and I also can't steal the silver while its still in Talmberg because it didn't spawn. I reloaded a save before starting it, not worth doing right now.

>>14423013

Talk with Matthew again after that to start it, but really don't do it. There are so many parts of this that have the potential to break.

>>14422514

If you're looking for a way to cheese reputation up to a max threshold with traders sell off cheap items, minimally 0.4 groschen, and haggle each of them down to 0.3; i.e. tip them repeatedly (if a region hates you, you wont be able to do this up to 100). It will even help your reputation with a region marginally and slowly. Each time you do it your reputation with the trader should rise 1-2 points and you'll get better prices on the items you buy and sell.

>>14419811

Sorry to disappoint anon but it mostly seems like a hard check for visibility and conspicuousness. If anything, they're pretty darn retarded even in broad daylight UNLESS you dare touch something contextual in the area.

Do bandits form the side quest Ruins respawn? I think I killed everyone in one of the camps, but it doesn't consider I have killed the leader and it has been days so there are no corpses to search if I have missed the one.

>>14424276

I think npcs respawn a week after you kill them.

>>14423774

Can you actually run and hide though, or do they just chase you indefinitely? Can you snipe from the shadows at night without them detecting you?

>>14419811

The AI is generally retarded and you can sneak right by them. Light levels barely seem to matter. However there are some few exceptions. Noise is actually very important, if someone hears you they will turn around and start looking where they heard the noise, and wearing noisier equipment makes you noisier. Also there are dogs in this game which are more astute than the humans, they won't attack you but will bark like madmen if you get near them and that will alert people nearby (even random civilians will come to see what the fuck is going on, even if it's the middle of the night, they'll get out of bed and wander out in their nightclothes to see what all the ruckus is about).

Also you usually can't just sneak up behind someone and silently kill them. They will likely scream in agony and everyone will know you just killed a guy. Even knocking someone out is loud and annoying, so you have to be careful. Sound is more important than sight.

>>14424378

When sneaking up on camps the stealth kill can be useful for taking out strays/scouts, but if you have multiple enemies in the near vicinity I've found it better to either take out a few with my bow (though they usually start charging by the second arrow) or by hitting them from behind with my sword which should only take 1-2 hits. Both strategies usually guarantee two free kills before the real combat starts, I think it's hard to stealth and re-engage without running away a fair distance but haven't tried it myself.

>>14424378

Oh and to add to

>Light levels barely seem to matter.

To me it seems they've tried to make it "realistic", light levels don't mean much/anything if their vision is obstructed (they have their backs turned or you hide behind something solid). But if you're hiding in a bush with some guy walking around 10 meters in front of you, you'll notice a huge difference depending on if it's dark or not.

Every time I speak with Hans I got the small bandit mission (where he gives you noble clothes) cut scene, but I have already finished the mission so it doesn't repeat beyond that scene. Is my game bugged for life or?

>>14419811

Daytime? Pretty much omnipotent AI if they have los to you, but it's daylight so whatever. Nightime? Very much more favourable to you. Even with torches they can have trouble spotting you in full plate if you stick to the shadows, which makes sense if you equip a torch yourself at night-you can't really see shit because, ironically enough, of the lighthouse near your face.

Some of my fondest memories are sneaking into cumin/bandit camps at night and poisoning everything, then going back in the next morning to finish them off. If they spot you, then it's fairly standard stealth stuff-leg it and break los. One thing I like is they'll go to where they think an arrow was shot from, so you can actually lure people away if you fuck up a sneak-shot with the bow.

>>14422876

If a wheelbarrow starts to tip over, you don't pull up on the handle of the side that is heading down. You push down on the handle that is on the side coming up.
