Hey everyone,
After some extensive work we’ve completed, we’re finally glad to announce that all of the major changes, which some of you noticed in Life is Feudal:MMO, have been by adopted, and patched to, Life is Feudal: Your Own.
Enjoy!
Patch notes (ver. 1.3.0.1):
New features and tweaks:
- Completely redesigned the combat skill tree. Make sure to open your skill book and spend some time familiarizing yourself with it. Note that skillcap setting will be different for crafting, combat and minor skills now
- Implemented a new object selection algorithm, which should increase your game performance slightly, especially in an area with a lot of objects and trees (note that inside buildings some improperly placed storage items, like crate, barrels etc., may become stuck, you will need GM assistance to get them out)
- Optimized and partially rewritten AI system. These changes may result in a slight server side performance boost, but they are mainly designed to be a foundation for Natives and horse-driven carts
- Implemented parallax effect on terrain textures
- Added ‘Maximized window’ display mode
- You can change language in Game settings menu now, as well as guid invites, groups and barter requests
- All types of damage affect movable objects now
- Implemented ‘chopping’ type of damage for different axe-type weapons. This type of damage is more effective against small, movable objects than slashing, blunt or piercing damage
- Implemented ‘impact’ type of damage. It is inflicted by horses trampling infantry. Padded armors have increased resistance against it
- Rebalanced all types of armor. Armor now has a bonus effects according to required skill
- Royal armor skill requirement has decreased to 90. Royal armor damage mitigation has increased by 5% compared to Veteran’s armor sets
- Increased blueprints probability to be dropped during crafting actions from 1% to 5%
- Minimum speed bonus is 1.0 instead of 5.0. That means that a low speed poke with certain weapons will not cause excessive damage now
- Doubled velocity multiplier in thrust attack speed bonus calculation
- Thrusting attacks with Spears cannot be parried now (required 90 Spearman skill)
- All trebuchet related actions require 60 Demolition skill now
- You need to inflict at least 5 dmg in order to have a chance to cause a stagger or stun
- Special attacks reshuffled for the purpose of better usability in combat. Make sure to check out skill book descriptions
- All melee combat combo chains are lowered to 3 consecutive attacks (instead of 4). Make sure to check skill book for details
- Combo, special attacks and attacks with Power Strike effect properly ignore parrying now (as it was originally intended)
- Hit damage type transforms to blunt when hit is blocked by a shield
- Practice weapons do not require a linen rope now in their crafting recipes. That should make practice weapons more available at earlier stages of development
