To all who have more questions about more specific topics and how to create a stabilized economy in order afford a kings tax/army etc I am working on a video now on how to do so in accordance with where the game stands currently after this patch so keep an eye out this weekend for that!

[@Tiger4ever89]

i have no doubt that this game will played for many years to come, if the dev is listening (which he does) to the community, and will invest time and money into it.. thank you for the video AlteredGamingTV!

[@AlteredgamingTV]

I agree and it makes me want more from manor lords! Such a well made, fun, experience of a game. Love the community as well! Thank you for the support tiger!

[@doodmonkey]

I want, I need more updates. Keep us posted!

[@AlteredgamingTV]

There will be more!!! Thanks dood!

[@exosproudmamabear558]

I am really surprised he adressed so many issues in a short time. Perhaps we gonna get bug free in 2 more updates with this speed.

[@tkzsfen]

I still can't believe that most of this was the work of ONE MAN! Where are the triple A companies, huh?

[@AlteredgamingTV]

Ubisoft?! 😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@carlosdiaz3568]

I agree but suggestion I think the high prices for trade hamper trade too much !

[@rm0986]

One change I'd really like to see soon is allowing for more militia units in return for only being able to use them in their respective home regions. Think about it: Militia are supposed to be a defensive unit, and they're free men after all - more likely than not they wouldn't want to get involved in battles outside of their home region anyway. For that you should need revenue and professional soldiery, which ought to be a different unit that requires upkeep.

[@AlteredgamingTV]

Interesting idea. Maybe have an insta draft when your home region is under attack (aka when you can't pay your debts) but rely more so on trained more soldiers. The issue I see with that is the heavy demand on tax from the Treasury already. So paid soldier units would be hard to finance In threatening numbers unless a nerf was applied to the kings (loyal) tax however experimental as that mechanic of the patch is. I'm sure there are many more changes to come. They are certainly working on implementing new more balancing features!

[@KelmTester]

You deserve much more attention

[@AlteredgamingTV]

That means a lot, thank you so much! One video at a time 💪

The kings tax feels awfully oppressive, kinda like real like.

[@blkpntjxn6971]

😂 same i got hit bad after the update

[@silasrobertshaw8122]

@blkpntjxn6971 the vibe I get from watching these videos and reading comments is many are conquering the map super fast, like in 8 years or some shit, so they outgrow the tax being an issue, but the tax basically stripped me of the ability to get enough money to improve my retinue or hire mercs. I may just suck at the game, but it feels over the top for normal players.

[@ppdvn.1st]

Yeah King tax hits hard just like real life XD

[@blkpntjxn6971]

@@silasrobertshaw8122 i didnt have time to play after the update. I just went in real quick to check for visible changes. I.e saw pit. And saw the red numbers after the tax. And it was wild, as I didnt plan in that tax in my playtrough 😂. Also not sure what for implications that will have, but will find out sunday eve when its time again for a nice session 😊 The game has still a lot of balancing to do and the dev knows it. However I'm in good faith with the game and will patiently wait and play until all fits perfectly. 🙏🏽😊

[@AlteredgamingTV]

So one thing I suggest is grow your village In chunks with periods of idle stabilization. The tax (which actually appears to be called loyal tax) at the moment seems to be more of a late game mechanic so just focus on slowly stabilizing an economy, don't focus on having a million different things going on all at once. When I say stabilize I mean get to a pop you can work your current jobs at efficiently then build more home and expand your economy. I'd say for first like 6 years at least. Then just push trade exports and burgage plot lvl 3s with two family pull in 8 gold each a month so that can be a mid game focus as well. Just thoughts

[@sterben4106]

I have notice with the patch that the Granary and Store house no longer can segregate certain items to store. Even if U say don’t store a certain item it still stores it

[@AlteredgamingTV]

That's a frustrating one. Bug fixes are definitely on the way though. I'll have to look out for that one but I don't believe my saves are doing that. Thanks for the info

[@joebenson528]

Hard to believe Slavic Magic is a one man operation (minus us Alpha players being volunteer testers).

[@christopherr.561]

Appreciate the video.

[@AlteredgamingTV]

Thanks Chris these comments keep me motivated!

[@molybdaen11]

Does this mean that villagers will no longer harvest corn when it's not ready?

[@AlteredgamingTV]

Harvests have all been updated. Fertility, plowing, pick to store method, and winter deteriorating the fertility, also food consumption per family has dropped. There is nothing on harvest times other than it may be changed to August. Also you can alter how aggressive they harvest in your advanced tab

[@Challengeyourwhy]

When i download the patch and play with it, i can not construct me a Granary. It is just a square area of grass that people put the food on. Granary workers can't use carts since no cart spawns because the building can't be constructed, but i get the notification after they build that invisible square. 😂 I don't want to revert back to the original version, but I can't play this patch either. It is fucked.

[@AlteredgamingTV]

I would re install with the patch, if it isn't fixed then re install without in the mean time. Also that is of valuable information to the developer so I would put that up somewhere either directly to the developer or on the steam page for him to see. He does pay attention to all the bugs and because it's an experimental patch in early access it will be seen. Also he's been amazing at getting to these fixes super fast. So be patient the game is far from complete.

[@AlteredgamingTV]

Also make sure your driver's are up to date before re installing.

[@videostodasservicios4519]

What about if you get the game from xbox game pass not from steam

[@VictoriousVictorian]

The experimental patch is only available on steam. You'll have to wait until it's released as a stable version.

[@AlteredgamingTV]

Correct

[@zoltanfricsek6358]

It means you need a pc

How to update the game via Xbox PC Game Pass?

There is no experimental patch for console. It's PC only unfortunately

Sucks that trading went from being OP broken to just being worthless.

[@arcanumelite4853]

how is that? dont you need trade to even be able to pay the tax in the first place? i dont see how its possible to pay the tax without trade? seems to me like trade is even more important than before unless im not understanding something... i haven't tried the beta patch yet.

[@videostodasservicios4519]

?

[@AlteredgamingTV]

The patch is not on game pass. The game is still in trial and error early phases hanse why it is not an auto updates patch.
