Now arming your clan with spears and armor and making them march to war is the only thing that is missing.
Spears are too complicated for video games :(
@@czarkusa2018 Mount & Blade did it right.
@@ShingoShojiPL No... Mount and blade polearms are terrible compared to their real life counterparts which dominated the battlefields.
@@TheChiconspiracy
They're harder to use than they should be but jfc does getting hit by one hurt like ass
A lot of updates on many fronts, really a big step in the right direction. Keep the updates coming!
Thank you, that's the plan.
Always love seeing the update videos! Thank you for making them 😃
Glad you like them!
If you allow me, I would like to make a suggestion now that combat is starting to become more beautiful and dynamic:
Those of us who practice Iaijutsu really enjoy the process of noto (sheathing the sword). It occurred to me that perhaps it wouldn't be difficult to make the katana like the gourd; an object that is always on the obi (belt) if we equip it in a certain slot. That way you could add a real draw and sheath, or even a Shiburi (shake the sword) like in ghost of tsushima to clean the blood.
By the way, I couldn't help but notice that when making several light attacks in a row, the character hits to the right with the right leg in front. This is very dangerous and no good samurai would do it unless he has lost concentration. Maybe you want to fix it later.
Thanks for your incredible work, I really enjoy your game. Have a great week :D
This is just a beta version of the combat system, we have a lot more coming later this year. Stay tuned!
@@toplitzproductions great! Looking forward to that! :D
Love this suggestion!
what a cringe weeaboo lmao
@@toplitzproductionsHey guys, I'm a huge fan of ghost of Tsushima. I would definitely buy the game if or once it's on ps5. As for the combat. One way to make it more dynamic and fun, is adding some cool finishers or takedown animations if you parry while the enemy is low health. Would make the combat more cinematic and cool. With just 4 or 5 killing animations per weapon type. It should suffice, but of course, the more the merrier. And the blood splatter could be similar to the old classic movies by Kurosawa.
This is my favorite dynasty game. I would love to see similar combat dynamics in medieval too.
Thanks!
Just bought the game last week and I have been very much enjoying playing it but was hoping for some improvements to be on their way. Then I saw this today! Thank you Toplitz for a substantial update, very happy with your work and your attention to detail and making the game more fun to play. Huge fan and excited for future features and to continue supporting your company.
Thank you!
As this game takes place in the Sengoku Period and we can basically forge samurai armor (I don't know if we can forge a Kabuto) the game could randomly generate Nobunaga's samurai or ashigarus trying to annex our fief and giving us reason to always improve our village.
We will likely see heavier armour like Tōsei gusoku added at a later point.
@@toplitzproductions But what about enemy armies? The sengoku period is known for being a horrible era of war. You should be worried about getting too strong, as you dont want to get into eyesight of larger clans, who only seek to build up their empires. There should be a system where similar to realm divide in Shogun 2, if you get too powerful, you could catch the eye of an enemy like Nobunaga, or Takeda Shingen, or Uesugi Kenshin. Perhaps each have their own style of war, and different systems of how they may treat you when defeated.
@@toplitzproductions This will be fire, my brother 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
@@TheGhost-7002 This guy get the point 👆🏻
@@TheGhost-7002 that might be out of the scope of the game, it's survival game with some combat mechanic, not grand strategy...
I just want to say that this game is a dream come true for me, I love that era and this update especially is amazing. Thank you for all the hard work and I really look forward to future improvements and the development of this amazing game.
Thank you for your support!
Finally it looks like Sengoku Dynasty is getting somewhere! I finally decided to get it now that the updates seem to be flowing in. Please keep up the hard work! がんばって！(Ganbatte!)
Thank you!
Damn, game has come a long way since I checked in on it a while ago. With this combat update I' m about to purchase it right now and give it a run! Great work team
Thank you!
See you in the game! 🙌
Just bought the game this weekend and already loving it. Keep up the good work!
I'm very excited for every new update to the game! I've put all my hope in indie studios to make a believable game set in medieval Japan. Keep up the good work, this update convinced me to purchase the game!
Thank you!
Seeing update videos like dis makes me promote the game to my friends
Your friends will appreciate it!
thanks to the devs :) I'm indeed very excited! \o/
Enjoy!
PLEAAAASE, BRING TO CONSOLES.
lol, best PC
We would love to!
Get a Pc nerd
Agree. You guys will make more sales!
@@nickemerson6934 Give me the money and i will buy. 😐
I can believe this is a mod for mount and blade kudos good work
for that it would be nice to have some npc companions along
With new combat I might give it a try! Looks cool
Thank you!
Looks like your making the right kinds of changes. Keep it up.
That's the plan!
Thank you for taking a great game and making it even better!
Thank you for your support!
I have some little suggestion for the game.
I noticed that the forests and other parts of the map are very lively with many animal and birds, but there aren't any in the rivers or in the ocean. It would be nice to see fishes swimming around that you could hunt with a speer or fish with a fishing rots. Especially because the citizens of ones village can have the fisher profission, but you cannot fish yourself.
There also could be birds swimming on the waters like ducks for example, that you could hunt.
The waters in general are pretty empty. There could be seagras and shells in the waters as well.
I also noticed that there is no swimming animation when you are "swimming" in deep waters like the ocean. There basically just running or walking animations or your just standing in the water without sinking. (I don't know if only I have this or if this is a common issue)
Thank you for your feedback.
Now that the combat is getting a rework it would be really cool to see the armor customization get a huge update. Maybe get some dying stations to change the lace color and clothing volors and patterns, even the wrappings on the sword. Alongside that it would be cool to get a lacquer oriented workstation to change the look of the metal itself. That way you can make what is a storied set of armor and weapon for your storied leader and his warriors.
Likely to see additional armour and weapons added at a later point.
I picked this game up on it's release (early access) thinking combat was non-existent. Now I'm clearly seeing the devs vision. I'll pick it up again soon!
Please add more blood! A classic game to take inspiration from is Kengo: Master of Bushido on PS2. When you used blades and would slice an opponent, blood would squirt from the slice spot. If you guys could get the slices and hits down with blood that squirts from the wound and paints the ground, this could very well be one of the samurai/Japan games to date.
I NEVER expected this game to have detailed combat (i honestly thought the combat would be terrible) but this looks AMAZING i love it! i bought the game to support the devs but i don't play it cause i never play early access so that i don't get bored before the full release but these new updates are EXTREMELY tempting
Thank you!
That's awesome improvement, especially the combat!!🤯
just came here from watching this game on nivaria's channel. don't know how i did not notice this game earlier, it's absolutely magnificent! but you might need more exposure. try Keralis, this game is right up his alley
Glad you enjoy it!
Thanks for the update! It looks great!
Thank you!
Update looks awesome. Can't wait to play later.
More exciting than Shadows.
WOW!
super Mise a jour merci l'equipe qui boss fort !
don't own the game yet but eagerly waiting for it to develop futher. it's honestly looking really fun!
Never heard of this game, looks incredibly good!!!
Some suggestions, chances are you’ve already gotten these, or are actively considering/working on them, but I just needed to say it.
1.) Since this is The Sengoku Jidai, “The Age of the Country at War”, later on I would love to see enemy clans try to annex or pillage your territory. If possible, they progressively get stronger. So the stronger you are, the stronger your enemies will be. For example, you could at first just face a few raids from unarmored bandits. Then it advances to bandits with armoured ronin amongst them (similar to the ones you see in Akira Kurosawa’s Seven Samurai) Next level, cavalry raiders. Then it advances to a minor clan. Then there can just be a period where its just you and this one clan trading blows, until the next level where a Major clan plans to seize your territory. This clan could be fictional, or to make it more immersive and fun, it could be the forces of a famous warlord of the Sengoku Period. Such as Oda Nobunaga, Uesugi Kenshin, Takeda Shingen, Hojo Ujiyasu, etc. Depending on which clan you are facing, you may have to change how you fight. For example, you could expect to face the Cavalry of the Takeda, and make preparations for that, training expensive, elite and time consuming, Samurai spearmen to face them. But instead, you face the guns of Oda Nobunaga, and your strategy now becomes pointless, as you are outmatched by their range, which causes all your hard-work to get annihilated by their gunners. Perhaps if you’re defeated, depending on who you face, the penalty may be different. For example, Uesugi Kenshin may spare your village and simply take some loot. Whilst the forces of Oda Nobunaga may devastate it. If you guys actually pulled off a system like this, that would definitely bring more people in, as that has been one of the main things missing that is keeping people from playing.
2.) Make Spears the go-to melee weapon by any means necessary. There are tons of games such as bannerlord that have a variety of weapons, but EVERY SINGLE TIME, spears are practically useless. This annoys me as spears, throughout human history, have often been the main melee weapon. The Sengoku Period is famous for the advancement in Pike and Shot warfare. The spear is known as the main melee weapon of the Samurai. So to have the spear be sidelined for the sword AGAIN, would be painful. So I personally, and im sure others would agree as well, would love to see spears buffed. Perhaps, a way to make it realistic is making it so that Trust attacks cannot be blocked, only dodged. This way, if you have a sword, you may be more cautious of the range of the spear (As it is in real life). The only way you can engage a spearman with a shorter weapon is by basically chipping away at them, running in when you see a mistake. This means, that only the most skilled swordsman can best a spearman. I feel that the AI should also have levels. For example, a peasant should be more hesitant, attack less, barely notice a gap or mistake. But a Samurai should be skilled, shouldn’t be as jumpy, wouldnt fall for feint attacks as much, does his own feint attacks, take full advantage of a mistake made by you. That makes Samurai a legitimate threat to you in a fight, but off course, they can just as easily be picked apart at range. So Gunners/Archers should be used to target elite troops before engaging them in melee.
3.) Variety in armour and weapons, this I believe you guys anyways have planned, but I just needed to add it. Cause otherwise the top two dont make any sense. My main complaint is the lack of helmets.
4.) I’m curious if you guys have a historical advisor, if so, who? Would love to know.
I really hope you consider these suggestions. Because, these are the things I feel is missing from this game, and keeping a lot of Japanese History buffs from playing. Thanks.
This is Kind of a complete other game lol
@@luchomedina3276 Just things that come to mind when thing of a Sengoku-Jidai based game
Thank you for your feedback and really cool ideas! There will be more weapons and armors with 1.0 release.
@@toplitzproductions But have you considered adding an invading force or threat? Thats one of the main things I and many other Japanese History Buffs are waiting for. :)
Woow, it got a good combat system.
Finally!
Very interesting! Aesthetic and movement reminds me of Outward, in a good way! Will definitely look out for this game.
Thank you for adding this souls style of combat..Certainly makes action lot more enjoyable..
amazing added content!
Thank you!
Suggestion now that combat is getting updated, new weapons and stances would be nice but all in all good work on the update keep it up!!
Thank you, more combat features coming later this year.
absolutely kino, good stuff.
Thanks!
at some point i would want to have more then just bandits to fight like an organised force of enemies then bandits like an antagonising enemy like the mongols for example or other enemies like a rival shogunate or something to organise a resistence to a antagonising enemy like a main villain
i realise that might not be that kind of game but id like to go to war with someone in this game plus i hope we can also learn shinobi skills as well that be a fun place to take this game
Soulslite? I love it. I´ll test combat right now. It´s the first time I´m happy to see a change from the Mediaval dinasty formula (almost perfect to me)
Thank you! Just a quick note: this is still the beta version, and the final combat system will be available with the 1.0 release later this year. Enjoy!
dang!! awesome
Great update as always. Might be going into Medieval Dynasty territory... :)
It took a different direction :)
Hello @ToplitzProductions :-D What about a Nintendo Switch release for Medieval Dynasty and Sengoku Dynasty? I can't wait to see the next update for Medieval Dynasty... Please, stay healthy! :-D
Hello! At this time, the Sengoku Dynasty console release hasn't been confirmed yet, but we're eager to bring it to consoles in the future. Stay tuned for updates! No Switch release for Medieval Dynasty. Sorry :)
@@toplitzproductions I wish there will be a switch release somewhere in the future...
Finally , no yasuke.
some players focus in economy than combat, if we leaders can arm our people and command them to clear bandit camps or hire some mercenaries, can be very good for the game
When will you guys optimise the game? I get low frames when there are a lot of buildings in my settlement
It's heavily optimized at the moment. Did you check the minimum requirements?
Does the game have rideable animals, or can you assign a villager as a rickshaw driver ? Or are updates planned in this direction?
Unfortunately not with the 1.0 version. Let's see what the future holds.
What about finishing animations when killing the last enemy to perform a finisher ?
This will be implemented in 1.0 release. Stay tuned.
Wishlisted this game. Will probably check it out once there's a sale.
edit: Actually, just saw that this game doesn't currently support the Steam Deck. I'll get it once that's worked on.
As far as we know, the development team plans to tackle it at a later point.
I would really like to see NPC raids and making use for defense buildings....
That would be cool right?
Yeahh @@toplitzproductions
wow its better than medieval dynasty already!!!
Every game has its own charm.
Can u make the new combat system to be also applied on Medieval Dynasty? that would be great
May I suggest having two sliders that adjusts Damage Given and Damage Receive. In Ghost of Tsushima, I really enjoy playing it on Lethal Mode.
Oh, and I guess a Ranged Attack indicator (either via visual que or audible like in GoT) since I dont wanna get kill silently by Archers that I cant see 😂
Thank you for your feedback!
can we get respec?
Need to put it on the xbox!!!!!
Niiiceeeeeee
Please add more character customs like hair, eyes, more clothing, etc and the ability to choose male or female (priestesses like in Inuyasha with a bow and spiritual powers, Assasins, warriors, etc. Making friends or having open worlds with other characters/meet new people. It would be cool too if they can become emperor, king/queen, rich/poor, improve combats and trigger raid wars, etc.
Thank you for your feedback! Female character is coming in 1.0 version later this year. Stay tuned for more information.
@@toplitzproductions i can't wait! Thank you :) hopefully you can make the classes too like the monk, warrior, etc but for females too! :) im excited.
Uuuuuh looks really good , is enemies attacks your village to steal your food and kill your people ? So maybe in future we need to build walls around to protect them oh my if you manage to make that I think a lot people like Reid mechanic in games it’s give bigger porpoise to be a great leader
Not promising anything, but you will likely have to deal with the bandits. One way or another. ;-)
This is good. Are there Japanese maples and persimmon trees in the vegetation? In autumn, the mountains are dyed with the yellow of ginkgo trees and the red of Japanese maples, creating a beautiful scenery that could be the subject of a haiku poem. When the persimmon trees bear fruit, you can feel the fruiting season with your eyes.
If there is an Inari Shrine, does that mean there are also foxes? . In Japan, there is an animal that is as beloved as the fox. It's a raccoon dog. If you haven't implemented it yet, please consider Tanuki.
Thank you for your support and feedback!
Wow, I'm impressed by the amount of new additions and improvements that this update brings! Very excited to test these out 🤩 Thank you dev team for this great overview, and all the hard work
Thank you for your support!
A question: there's reference in the game to a burnt-down manor of the Shogudai, but I haven't yet found it. Has it been implemented?
Nope, it's not there. It will be removed.
I like that they ADMIT that they made big changes and likely have a few bugs... and tell you to notify them. This is so refreshing to hear sometimes as opposed to tripple A studios going: LOOK AT THE GRAMPHICS! THE MUSIC! Distractions so you dont realize in the trailer that half our sh!t clips through the environment and doesnt work, 80 dollars!
Yes, quite a few studios admit this, but tripple A studios tend not to, and will in fact fight tooth and nail that they are right and you are wrong. Just for this, I will ask my friends if they see any intrigue in playing this game... Or I may buy it myself and play solo.
Thank you very much for your support and feedback! Enjoy the game!
You guys need to bring this over to PS5! More sales for ya!
Never say never to that.
@@toplitzproductions 💪💪
Thank you for not including the Italian language this time too. You are unique!
Sorry for that.
Please add parkour elements later or at least one day.
Sorry but it's not planned at this point.
Guys when these updates drop do i have to start the game from beginning or are my saves preserved and I can start using the new features?
We recommend starting a new game after each major update. However, save games should be compatible since Kintsugi, but may need adjustments (like re-building a structure or setting up production again).
@@toplitzproductions thank you and good work!
You need to make combat where you can lead men into battle from your village and if they die it affects your village, we need to be able to trade, raid or conquer villages and territory, im not interested in a another city builder, with minimal combat, i want to build my village / dynasty and conquer other territorys, make allies and diplomatic marriages, all while worrying about feeding my village and myself
How do you get the pauldrons for the armor ?
It will be available in 1.0 version later this year.
I just want animals.
If anime based in the feudal era can have cows and chickens on the streets, why can't a game based on the same?
That would be cool, right?
NGL The improved production system hyped me more new combat system. Not saying that new combat system is bad or anything, im hyped for it it too but old production system was clunky as hell 😅
Yes, the new production system is a bit more harmonised and you can manufacture things in a purposeful way.
is this online/have pvp? could be the new conan exiles all of us vets are wanting/ let me know if there is or if there is plans to do so. coop or pvp etc. I used to do videos on that game and had quite the audience of it. If you have a demo or key for me to try and review i would love to do it!
The game is co-op.
@@toplitzproductions so no plans at all to add PvP or PvP servers ?
IN LATE 2024 WE CAN CLOSE THE DOOR ! GOOD BYE MOSQUETO !
Hold the door! Hold... the... door!
Can you play with friends and if so then is it cross plat?
Co-op yes, but only on PC at this very moment.
CAN WE RECRUIT NPC FOR COMBAT
Not at this point. Now you can play with your friends.
hello, is game getting update on epic games too?
Yes, that's the plan :)
i need to drink a water in game
Nice Update, just replay it but can't still make to produce ICE on the mining building, it says I need the ICE SOURCE so far there is only ice in the lake that I have been able to find but I can't find the way to produce it in the mining building. And now Sake needs ICE? Now the most productive way of get sake is to buy it or buy the fermented mix just to distill it.
And can you do something with the AutoSave, it keep saving and saving. Over 5 hours of playing it Just over a GB all the saved Files.
Ice is required to cool the rice mash. Production numbers will likely see adjustments because balancing is ongoing.
there is one thing breaking the game, optimization. i cant play with my friends because multiplayer is lagging, is it temporary or should i upgrade my pc?
What PC do you have?
Please check the requirements on Steam.
can you still recruit a troop?
No, but you can join your friends online and conquer bandit camps together.
Its be cool if u can play as Lone wolf and cub with the baby cart lolz
Sounds awesome but that might be a different kind of game :)
@@toplitzproductions It could be something like Assassin mode xD
I check my ps5 every morning 😭😅
We'll announce the release on consoles in due time before.
Can we craft a Kabuto?
No, not in this update, but much more coming later this year.
Tell me this is coming to console some time soon?!!
We would love to!
please tell me this will eventually come to xbox
Unfortunately, we cannot answer this right now. But, we hope it will come to consoles.
are you a one man army do you have some help fighting off bandits from NPC?
Some bandits are easy to tackle, for some you will likely need some skill to counter their attacks, especially if they outnumber you.
Will this game come to console?
Yet to be determined after full release.
Let us have wohoo's in this game and also let have pets and train them for battle and stuff
:)
I feel like “Souls-Like” is just a buzz word now, this combat is nothing like Souls besides the fact that you can dodge lmao
Light and strong attacks, parrying, and dodging-it's not just about button-mashing, but mastering timing and technique. That's what defines a 'souls-like' experience, and it was a major inspiration for us.
@@toplitzproductions If that was a major inspiration for ya'l, that's cool. But Souls games didn't invent those mechanics, they weren't the first to implement them nor are they unique to their games. Light and heavy attacks and dodging had been a thing before them, after them and along side them in different ways. And parrying in those games is probably one of the most under used mechanics in the game. Your combat looks nothing like a Souls games, it looks more like Rise of the Ronin. Doesn't look like it handles like it at all. So it comes off as just a buzz word.
are we going ot be able to create our own army and seige others settlements or our settlement getting invaded
If you mean a four-player "army" in cooperative mode, then yes :P
SuuuuuuUUUUUU
When for xbox X?
It's not yet announced. Stay tuned!
Now it looks so much better but please add character creation,simple like changing face and hair and color option for that... nothing special
It's coming!
@@toplitzproductions oh wow nice,that is good to know. Tnx tor information…
The maintenance stat kills the game. I loved it until I added 1 too many villagers, then the game became a chore. The villagers are more hassle than they're worth. Nothing is automated properly. This is Micro-Managment: The Game.
Thank you for your feedback. The game will be more balanced with 1.0 release.
アサシンクリードより戦闘が面白そう
XBOX yet?!
Let us complete the PC version first. But we definitely would love to see a console version.
@@toplitzproductions sweet! Also Wild West dynasty!
Multiplayer????
It's already there, 4 player Co-Op mode.
Sexy war.
i tried the game months ago but it made me sick :(
i do not know what was the problem but first i had light head pain and dizzy head after continued to play it i felt i need to throw up so because of this i refundend the game. If it was fixed, i would totaly love to play this game. Mostly very old games are the only ones that i am not able to watch others play or to play them myself like example old dooms and old star wars dark forces game. Bit this game does not look like this kind of games so no clue...
Sorry to hear that. You can try switching the view to another perspective.
