Manor Lords got off to a pretty spectacular start and was a huge success. However, bugs persist and a major patch is in the pipeline to make several important changes.
Since its blockbuster release, medieval building and management game Manor Lords has quickly become one of the most downloaded titles on Steam. Load on the platform’s servers. Given this excitement, developer Slavic Magic, aka Greg Styczeń, revealed the outlines of the game’s first significant update, which is currently in Early Access.
Manor Lords according to plans
This next update will focus on several key aspects of the game. Among the changes announced we find an adjustment to the damage dealt by archers. An improvement in trading mechanisms and a reduction in the sometimes excessive expansionism of artificial intelligence. A patch is also planned to address issues related to “homeless bugs.” Which has an unusual effect on the behavior of homeless characters in the game.
In addition, the development team plans to optimize the efficiency and storage of the sawmill. Additionally, a bug that prevented playing in free mode has been fixed. If you have crashing issues, Slavic Magic recommends updating your graphics card drivers. A basic but essential tip to ensure game stability.
Feedback from players on social networks, although sometimes humorous about their lack of knowledge of medieval agricultural practices, was taken into account by the developer. In fact, some players were worried that their farmers would have to abandon the November harvest due to plowing and sowing. A completely authentic practice that the developer took the time to explain.
Slavic Magic’s early access approach was praised as ideal by publisher Hooded Horse. Moving away from a model where players vote on which features to develop next. Instead, the studio is focused on receiving player feedback to refine and improve Manor Lords.
Although a release date for this update has not yet been announced, the message is clear: it will be available “as soon as it is ready.”
