Frequently asked questions

1. Is there a timeline for Bloody Bastards features?
   No. It’s mysterious!

2. Are you secretly working on another game?

   Yes, very secret! Will reveal it later this year.

3. Will you add Ottomans, Aztecs, Wallachians, etc. to Bloody Bastards?

   Not as regions, but I definitely plan to add more gear, when Ranked mode will become Seasons, which, if everything goes well with the refactoring, will have periodically new content that unlocks in Multiplayer only. Also, I would like to add Aztecs as a new 5th region, but again, I have to refactor a bunch of old janky code that I wrote while still learning a lot about programming back in 2021, hence I will start from scratch on a lot of features, but this will take a lot of time. And I also want to switch my multiplayer backend to a server-authoritative topology, which will make it so that syncing is as close to perfect as physically possible. Fingers crossed! Did I mention I am a dad of two? Yeah, that also takes up a lot of time. Worth every second, but you get it.

4. The sticks are overpowered!

   I am actually balancing them with every little update. Not by chipping away at their stats, but by making all blunt weapons a little less effective than they used to be against plate armor, although still better than swords, because it’s blunt damage after all. TLDR: I’m getting there!

5. The shields are overpowered!

   Yeah, I’m thinking of making shields drain stamina when hit by an apponent, to balance things out.

6. When is the next update coming?

   Soon™
