In this video I'm using the classic NaLo arm-swing locomotion mode using the new features that we have included in our March update:
https://steamcommunity.com/games/798810/announcements/detail/1805320783871088265

Links to the time when I use or enable these features:

• Forcing smooth rotation (0:47)
  
• Enabling strafing by tilting head (1:44)
  
• Enabling setting to choose locomotion direction (forwards/backwards) with the left joystick (2:21)

For this video I was using Feet Mode using 2 Nintendo Switch Joy-Con to walk-in-place. To know how to pair Nintendo Switch Joycons with Natural Locomotion see our short video-tutorial:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=igRfDE11B6k



And finally for this video I used the new seated feet mode to play with one or two devices on the ankles while sitting on a chair with the feet hanging, sliding, on a static bike or even some treadmills. The direction is calibrated just by doing a T-pose extending the arms to the sides. It includes features like smooth rotation (if it doesn't makes you dizzy), and head tilt strafing (which also works in all other modes). Seated feet mode is not as immersive as standing, however it can be extremely useful in many situations, and it's a good compromise between immersion, convenience and exercise.

This new feature can be used with a single smartphone, which is more convenient than looking for trackers or a second device.

Today we've got a huge pile of new content for you. There is the first wave of reworked AI, a brand new Event System, new skills, new active, new traps, some changes in previous content and we've added main and sub stats to weapons, actives and mods. But this last one is still work in progress, we plan to remove the consumable/stack-able logic for a new upgrade in quality and levels. There is a lot to try there (and I heard most of you are confined at home, so it's a great chance to play some more!) and remember to give us some feedback and suggestions. So let's have a look in detail at this new version's content!

Innkeepers!

We know that new translations and patches are the things that you like the most so... today you get both!

Russian language was something that we wanted to add as soon as possible, but we wanted to be sure, that it will be on the highest possible level. Now, we are pretty sure, that loads of you will have more fun from playing Crossroads Inn!

What's more, we added key combination CTRL+F2 in Main Menu, which will automatically open Editor!

And the most important! We added Ranen and Kairn, 2 new Vedetas!

New Features:
- Added Russian language. Please make sure to let us know if you encounter any text issues!

- Updated tenants. A "tenant" is a guest who is renting one of your Private Rooms.
You can now train their attributes, and decide which of them should be their priority. You also need some specific equipment for training:
- for Strength, Endurance and Dexterity - Training Dummy
- Charisma - conversing with other guests (Vedetas can also improve it by using their special piece of furniture, a table with a mirror)
- Intelligence - a Bookshelf, or any other piece of furniture that has books on it
When an attribute improves, an icon will be displayed on top of your tenant. Note that if the tenant is unhappy and his basic needs are constantly being ignored, his attributes will be lowered!

- Added key combination CTRL+F2, which - when used in Main Menu - will launch the Editor. We have also removed an .exe file with the Editor as we found that some players have hardware issues preventing it from working. With this key combination, there should be no more issues.

- Having more than 50% influence with a faction, while having all of them unlocked, will cause the NPCs belonging to the former one to appear in your inn as potential tenants.

- Added 2 new Vedetas, Ranen from Velendis, Sambria and Kairn from Salebritte, Yorevale

UI:
- The game will no longer occasionally prevent progress after hiring a Kitchenhand in the Tutorial.
- You can now only select Repair command on objects that actually require repairs.
- Deleting Stairs will now refund money.
- Made it easier to place down portraits in Act 3; using CTRL should no longer be required.
- A profesion of every potential tenant (adventuer, vedeta etc.) is now displayed on their info screen.
- Recipes now correctly display which furniture is needed for cooking.
- The game now treats Vedeta beds as normal beds, but only for Private rooms.
- Tier 2 Servants are no longer bald.
- Supply carts on the map now use a different icon than other, random carts.
- Minor fixes to gui and icons.

Miscellanious:
- Cleanniness of the room is now affected by the amount of clean and dirty furniture in that room.
- Changed how room Quality is calculated - cleanniness, furniture and size matter equally.
- Made changes to positive and negative traits of many pieces of Furniture.
- Slightly nerfed Trovin's taxes in Act 3.
- Guests infected with parasites can now bring them to your tavern and infect your furniture. Make sure to contain them before they spread! Please note that this requires Pests & Puppies DLC to trigger.
- Repair animation now correctly uses a hammer.
- Fixed a misleading typo on crafting buttons; it is now clear when you turn it On and Off.
- Fixed an issue that prevented Sambrit from dropping its price after one of the quests.
- Most Fireplaces can now be used as Grills.

Hellooooooooo guys!!
How is this crazy quarantine going???

FIrstable, this madness has a crazy new price because we want most players to enjoy it and have a good time with this, so now it is more accessible for everyone!

Besides, we are working in several new "Poop" stuff!
Soon you'll know!

Muahhahaha (crazy laughter)

PS: Remember to have healthy habits to boost your immune system!
(Fresh fruits and vegetables, as Nick does!)
Cheers :D

This is one of our biggest updates yet! It contains our latest map "Castello", where you plunder and raid a secluded island fortress and an expanded "Mountain Peak", allowing you to finally proceed beyond the castle gates in our Invasion gamemode.



View of the new throneroom on Mountain Peak


This update also comes with a large variety of new weapon and armor cosmetics to cover all your fashion needs.


Some of the new unique weapon skins


The Duel mode is leaving its beta phase. Due to this, we are resetting duel MMR. We have added duel leaderboards and the ability to display your duel rank in any mode, as well as rank decay. We hope these changes will incentivize more players to try out the mode.

Our loadout system has had a point rework, rebalancing it for 48 total points (instead of 16), which gives us a better ability to balance individual weapons, armors and perks. The aim is to promote more diverse builds, which was hard to do under the old point distribution.



Armory/Loadout changes, including a new team color preview


Last not but least, there are also numerous bug fixes and gameplay tweaks for an even better Mordhau experience.

Stay healthy!

Combat

• Re-added team hitstop
  
• Movement now slightly more weighty/grounded and less jumpy
  
• Reduced knockback across the board

• Stab feint & Stab combo feint windows reduced 25ms
  
• Stab early release increased very slightly
  
• Slowed down stand to crouch very slightly
  
• Jump kick now 25ms slower than regular kick, no longer drains stamina but keeps momentum from the movement speed (no longer slows down suddenly)

• Removed overpower from non-shield ripostes, shields still have it
  
• Ripostes no longer clash with non-ripostes
  
• Added riposte hyperarmor - this means hitting someone who is riposting will hitstop your attack and force a short (300ms) lockout from parrying, preventing players from spamming attacks into a riposting player and instantly parrying their riposte hit trade. This will buff 1vX.
  
• Shield wall ripostes can now be flinched (additional tweaks to shield wall will come in the future)
  
• Can now parry out of shield wall ripostes like regular ripostes
  
• Shield wall can now be lowered instantly with no recovery, allowing players to cancel them and start a normal attack or tap parry to get normal ripostes. This means you can also instantly parry during the raising of shield wall, or parry incoming jump kicks, aswell as getting regular hit trade ripostes by parrying.
  
• Forward parry now disabled for teammates (will reduce range of parries of teammates, making it easier to hit around)

• Chase mechanic activation time now 100ms faster (500ms -> 400ms)
  
• Removed front chase mechanic from the game (was active on players holding ranged weapons or toolbox, throwables in hands)
  
• Combattest: Added experimental blending time derivation based on pose analysis: this will automatically find blend values and lower/raise them based on animations the character is in, fixing ugly snaps in certain animation combinations and making some animations more responsive, making them less hidden.
  
• Combattest: Added new mechanic that fixes/improves missing on purpose/combo misses - aiming at enemy attack tracers when parrying will now give a much faster parry recovery when it detects an attack recovery/release/missed combo windup/environment hit (includes team hitstop) - uses a modified parry box to detect and is easy to trigger, currenly has no sound or obvious indicator
  
• Combattest: Added riposte feint (not the final iteration as it needs animation changes)
  
• Combattest: Attack recoveries can now be parried and will now thud when hitting characters, reducing clipping and reducing lockouts, will still count as a miss on thud
  
• Combattest: Increased feint lockout & regular parry recovery slightly for more punishable feints

Weapons & Equipment

• Point system changed to 48 points (point costs are raised proportionally) - this will allow for finer balance between equipment, armor and perk costs and make the armory more sandboxy
  
• Added heavy weight debuff - this is a new weapon attribute that will slow down the player by 20 units when holding a weapon in hand that has this debuff. Right now applies to Zweihander, Spear and Halberd and Polehammer in the future. This slowdown only affects walk and partial sprint speed (combat movement speed) and not maximum sprint speed for map traversal.

• Plate helmet now 1% faster
  
• Plate torso now 1% faster
  
• Light head now 1% slower

• Leg armor is now cheaper than head and chest armor across the board - this will give points to loadouts using heavy, medium or light leg armor
  
• Shortsword, Quarterstaff, Lute, Trainingsword, Bandage, Dagger, Axe, Beartrap, Mallet, Blacksmith Hammer, Pavise, Rocks, Smoke Bomb, Throwing Axes, Throwing Knives and Warhammer are now cheaper

Hello everybody!
There is a week after we release version 1.0.8 on the public beta branch. And today we bring this version to the official branch for everyone.
If you still want to keep in touch with hourly/daily/weekly updates on the public beta branch, follow the instructions here:
https://store.steampowered.com/newshub/app/1195020/view/1839097781061933722



There are some news things in the 1.0.8 version:
1. With all 5 playable characters, we always want to make each character look different from the others in the outlook, the sound, and the fighting style.
In this update, we've added a new define called "damage type", which has two types of damage: physical and magic. Based on that, each character will have a certain damage type and the enemy is also resistant to one or both types of damage. This makes a little different and requires you not to be able to just abusing a single character!

2. As the most important part of the update, we added the main storyline after Nel returned from the outside world. You will discover a new dungeon, fight new enemies, new bosses and another secret boss (which can be a little hard to beat, but the rewards are so useful!)

3. Belong to the main storyline, you will be able to unlock 2 new Guardian Spirits. And do not forget, there are 4 great hot hentai scenes when reaching Bond Level milestones in the R18 DLC!

4. In previous versions, many players complained that the control of the characters was not good. So we have a small improvement, that the movement does not stop suddenly but smoothly. Hope you are comfortable with the current controls. Unless, please let us know your ideas and problems, we will find a way to solve it as soon as possible!

5. About game balance, there is no change in the enemy's or character's stat. But there is a very important change in the damage of skills. In previous releases, just only buffs and defensive skills are useful. The offensive skills proved too weak (not much damage). In the new update, attack skills will become stronger and stronger every time the skill level up. So remember to use it often!

6. One more thing about skills, you will find a few new skills useful in this version.

7. Did you feel the chests were trash, and you don't want to find them? Yes, we do.
We deleted all current chests and hide a lot of new chests. The new chests will produce more valuable things like a lot of souls, skills, points or healing seeds. The more hidden chests, the more valuable they are, so don't miss them!
Note: If you want to experience this update, you have to play a new save slot.

8. The main ideas we've listed above, but there are a lot of bugs that have been fixed, and many other things that your feedback or find out have improved. Writing too much is not a good idea, so we let you feel! Do not forget to leave us your feedback.
To ensure the best experience, starting a new playthrough is the best solution. Playing the old save will sometimes cause conflicts or data duplication or imbalances. Please sympathize with us!

Version 1.0.8 is out, so what about next? Yeah, we always plan ahead for each game timeline, and here are the upcoming plans:



1. Of course, the first thing that must be developed during Early Access is the main storyline. Currently, there are many new bosses and missions ready for you to conquer. But wait, we still have a lot of dungeons that need to be completely designed first!

2. As mentioned above, we will continue to make new differences for the characters, including passive skills and special abilities.

3. We will add new puzzles as well as path finding, you will be able to use the special skills of the character to solve them!

4. Side quests - that's right, you didn't hear it wrong! In addition to the main quest, we will gradually put on side quests for you to explore and conquer. This will take a long time, so please wait patiently!

5. How about the new hentai scenes? Surely you really want to know about this right? We will consider doing extra hentai scenes, maybe paid DLC or free depending on the sale report. But that was after the official release of the game. And now there are 10 scenes for you to enjoy!

6. To make up for the lack of new hentai scene, we've done something else for you, which is the animation for the characters that appear in the dialogue. Our animator is finalizing the final characters, and it will soon appear in the game in the coming updates!

7. Enemy is boring! Surely many people after playing through a few maps will feel the same! That's right, we also see that, so we are improving the enemy to make them smarter, add more behaviors and add more special enemies. Trust me, you will like it.

8. Achievements will be added in some next version.

9. It's enough at this time, the others part is that we will listen to your feedback and make improvements or even new content if it is within our capabilities and does not affect our plans. we!
So, do not hesitate to let us know your ideas! Comment here, post on the community or discord, send mail... We always read your feedback!
