Winds of Magic - Season 2 Blog Post

Although not brand new maps, at least we are getting some maps, and that’s nice.

I’m fine with paying for some really cool unique looking cosmetics, I don’t have a problem with that - as long as those cosmetics are truly unique and exceptional in design.
Regarding free cosmetics… I trully hope that you won’t just recolor the existing ones, but that there will be at least a couple of completely new ones that will be FREE.

People didn’t read that the real money thing will only be “cosmetic dlc” and that in game shop will only have things buyable in in-game money.

They did read it - they are fearful that it is going to escalate further to things that aren’t just cosmetic.

From my undestanding, at least.

Well this was a bit already existing in V1 with paid skins (arrogance ones) and daily quests.

Well, we probably can help with. So FS no longer fails with their selling plans we have to suggest cancel VERSUS mode, cause most likely it is going to fail as hard as WoM did. FS guys, you are small studio, you have to patch this game for 3 platforms.

This is great news and im looking forward to some of them but I really hope you guys/ladies at fatshark will address some of the issues with combat that im sure you already are aware of since i’ve seen people post them here on the forum because it can make the game very exhausting/tilting to play at times.

The main man, Fu himself.

From what I took of the announcement, it seems the maps will be reworks? It said that we’re going back there because of something?

“Something appears to have taken a liking to the castle and our heroes have to once again visit the castle to learn more about what’s happening”

oh boy, I hope there’s a boss fight. Obviously, if it’s Mannfred or Vlad, we’re all dead anyway. But how cool would it be to fight a Grave Guard, or a Crypt Horror or even a Varghulf.

None the less, I think/hope the maps will be switched around a bit, new routes and what not.

Damn it I want versus mode. I wanted weaves too until I found out the enemies wouldn’t be RNG.

Damn it I want my game to be enjoyable, not frustrating. And PS and XBOX guys probably just want something

We here not having major fixes during wom launch. I hoped this thread will have patchnotes as well.

Okay here it is, in separate thread

How about making bots available in weaves? You guys can’t keep betting the mode will be popular all the time.

Dropping versus mode would not automatically mean things will suddenly, magically be grand on all other fronts. If they do it right they could drawn in the PvPers (like L4D did), and people who want to play as skaven.

FS invested time into reworking combat balance, which, whether you wanted it or not, was generally badly received based on beta polling (and now reflected in reviews), and then pushed it through anyway, versus mode or not they were evidently going to do that either way.

No, I was just stating the obvious, i.e., we are not getting brand new maps but reworked ones. But again, better some maps than none :slight_smile:

Apparently you are a reasonable fanboy :wink:

The open question is whether these maps will be permanently available or disappear after season 2?

Actually they did mention mods getting a full rework, doing away with the sanctioned mod waves and evaluating mods one by one to make the process faster.

A surprise, to be sure, but a welcome one.

I have been waiting for those cosmetics all my life, I am ready. Might even get some paid hats.

Waiting until Dec. 31st for this content will be hard though

Let’s see what breaks this time around.

These gonna be actually good skins or MS Paint recolors?

They’ve mentioned lots of things.

What they actually do is barely a fraction of what they talk about.
Don’t get your hopes up.

I just hope were getting real cosmetics and not just some cheap recolors…
