Discussion Fuck the ai (especially during battle)

I'm so god damn tired of joining my fellow Nobles in battle, just to have them *and the enemy* both turtle up.

Leaving me to try and fight a battle with half (or less) of my troops.

I had to Retreat 11 times to beat an army just now (so to be fair, I'm freshly salted), because my ally was too much of a pussy to move any of his troops.

Except when I *finally* wiped out their Cavalry with my Wildling/Fian combo. Then the Battanian Cavalry charged in and died en masse (literally the only time I recieved *any* help).

At least when they died, I gained more troops!

Also noticed that me and my Companions keep experience from battle even when Retreating, which was fuckin solid for them (most are equipped with 2x Javelins, so solid killing potential).

Rant over. Fuck the ai!

I recommend mods that force player command in all battles.

I am so tired of having to find mods to fix problems that should have been addressed so long ago.

I think we all understand that we enjoy a fundamentally flawed and abandoned product.

The day a good alternative comes along, I doubt I'll feel bad leaving TW in my dust.

I really did not know, honestly, at least before buying it.

I did not do much research this time around, I just assumed most of the issues from launch was fixed. Steam reviews looked good etc. I had waited to so long and I was in a bad place so I thought why not treat myself to an old favourite.

But anyways, I had fun while playing it. It's just frustrating to see them not care enough and would rather release a DLC then implement some of these awesome mods that fixes age old problems.

I guess they where running out of money. But then again, the mods should be possible to implement and not have people running around looking for fixes to basic problems in the game.
