Facing Fear! Read major negative reviews, talk about our plan on them
Within two days of its release, we have released three fix patches to fix some major and urgent bugs in the game. Of course, as a game world with a high degree of freedom and NPCs controlled by AI, the fight against bugs will be a protracted battle. This weekend we will still focus on optimizing some unreasonable parts of the game, and in the first half of next week, we will share with you the future content update plan of The Matchless Kungfu.
Back to the topic, once again we are very grateful to so many players and friends who like our world, and also to those users who gave us their main opinions and feedback in the evaluation. This is why we want to launch an early access version, so that we can more quickly and directly discover the core problems of the current version and clarify the future direction. Today we will respond to the current main negative reviews and provide plans, hoping to solve the current difficulties players are encountering as soon as possible.
Main negative review contents:
1.The AI logic of the current version is confusing, and the senior sister adventure line is very broken! The AI feedback of the whole school is also very strange!
In the EA version, we have added a lot of new AI behavior judgment criteria, but we have not clearly sorted out the priority relationship between them. In the current version, the AI's behavior judgment logic for players and other NPCs is mainly based on relationship + Identity + position + reputation are judged separately. There is no clear priority relationship between them, and positive attitudes and negative attitudes themselves will exist at the same time, which leads to situations such as loving you sometimes and killing you sometimes.
In order to correct this unreasonable phenomenon, we plan to merge the three attitudes currently in the game into one total attitude. The four judgment criteria mentioned above will still be used for judgment, but they will all be integrated into the total attitude value between each other. You can also click on the overall attitude to see the sources of attitudes in various branches, and the final behavior of the AI will be mainly determined by the overall attitude, and will be assisted by other factors such as positions.
The modified result of Sect Sister Sending Flowers (changed in yesterday’s update):
The triggering conditions for Sect sister's adventure have been increased, the conditions for senior sister to become a couple have been improved, and the negative feedback from the adventure line has been reduced to a minimum. At the same time, there is a bug fix for wrong action
There is a serious design error in the AI rules of the sect. Players fighting anyone in the sect will cause a negative attitude in the entire sect. This will be fixed soon.
As our highest priority tuning part at present, the overall AI and adventure module adjustments are planned to be fixed in the near future. We will do our best to let everyone experience the new version of AI as soon as possible, and we hope that everyone can continue to give us feedback.
2.The freeze and loading problems of AMD GPU users, the freeze problem of the water surface effect.
At present, we have not determined the specific reason. We currently do not have the corresponding test hardware, and will make a repurchase in the near future. You can also provide the configuration of your card machine, and we will optimize it after creating the corresponding test environment. Regarding the issue of lagging and freezing, I hope you can fill in the host configuration and archive files more clearly in our bug feedback form and describe the specific situation, so that we can have more information for troubleshooting. Thank you very much!
3. The Q E button problem of rotating the viewing angle, customize the button
We will add the function of using keyboard keys to control the perspective in the custom keys. Players can bind the keys they want to use and modify them at will. Plan to update within a week.
4.The archive disappears, there is no cloud saving, and there is no function to read the save data.
(1) At present, basically all save file problems are data errors caused by power disconnection or program crash during the archiving process. For this, we plan to add multiple save slots and S&L function to ensure that the archive data appears in a certain In the event of an error, an alternate archive continuation area in another location can be used to prevent the problem from happening.
(2) Cloud saving function: Originally, when we launched the game, we were worried that network conditions would lead to cloud saving storage errors and file lost, so we decided not to support it for the time being. But this decision did cause inconvenience to players who needed to change locations and computers to play. So we decided to test and open the cloud save function as soon as possible.
We plan to revise and test it for a week and then update it.
5. The problem of characters creation: their faces look ugly
The character creation function will definitely improve in the future, but it is currently a low priority. We still prefer to polish the core gameplay before considering appearance-related improvements. When we get enough funding, we should be able to buy a better face creation template~
6. Problems with modifications and cheating devices
First of all, let us state that we have not taken any measures to prevent users from cheating or modifying. However, due to the modification of the save file construction design, the modification path of the demo version is no longer applicable to the current version. This may be the main reason why some player feels that we do not allow modifications.
7. Window mode problem and blur under 4k resolution
Some players have reported that in 4k or 2k mode, the graphic looks blurry, and after switching to window mode, the window is even larger than the screen range and cannot be modified. In this regard, you can try to adjust the change text or application size in Windows display settings (modify to 100%, 4k default is 150%). If you still feel there is a problem after making such settings, please leave a message in the comment area to provide us with more information.
Finally, we will continue to pay attention to feedback from players. If you have anything you want to know or are unhappy with, please feel free to leave us a message in the comment area. The production team and publishing students will serve you wholeheartedly!
See you in our update announcement!

Early Access Release Log: Internal Test Summary +Version Status
Greetings to all players who have been following us.
With the support of everyone since the 2021 bilibili game festival, The Matchless Kungfu was released today in an Early Access form to meet you.
Compared to the emotions of the previous month, the apprehension has actually been diluted quite a bit now. On the contrary, today we would like to talk to all about the current version and our plans for the future with an honest and open mind.
For this kind of game, Early Access seems to be a reasonable and necessary process. As a content developer for this type of game, we are eager for the feedback from the community to digest and create the right content for development.
Below we'll go over the current version of the situation as best we can. Rather than painting a big picture, we'd like to give you enough information to determine whether or not it's a suitable purchase for you at this stage. For those who want the full version, we would recommend following our game for now, and staying tuned to our announcements.
First, the summary of the August internal test.
During the August close beta, we received help from beta players, located and fixed a cumulative total of 200+ bugs, and optimized several issues of concern based on players’ comments, and completing several updates.
For example, the archery tower in the sect, which caused a lot of unnecessary trouble for everyone, has been cut out for the time being in the current version;
The maximum number of talent points for each ability after the return to Karma is also shown in a clearer way;
The doctor NPC interaction option adds help for healing, and so on. There are also various optimization items, which will be too many to list here.
Compared with before the closed beta, our repair scope should have covered the early, middle and late stages of the current game. The version is much more stable, but there are still various unnoticed problems. However, we are excited to receive more bug reports from players after the Early Access release, which will be very much helpful to us and the game.
2. Problems and considerations in the current version
Through your feedback in our community comments and internal test comments, we have summarized several issues that still exist in the current version and need to be improved and supplemented in the future:
1) Adaptation issues and difficulty adjustments in the novice stage;
Many gameplays of the game itself are actually composed of some ideas hatched within the team, and we are also very happy to have been recognized by some players in the community, but this release will still target many players who have never experienced this game before. In view of this consideration, the novice stage of the current version has changed compared with the demo version of the Steam Next Fest. We have adjusted the performance of the opening plot and early Land Blocks. We believe that this version’s difficulty in the early stage is more friendly to novice players. If you encounter any problems in the experience, or there are things you need to know but not included in the Heavenly Scroll, welcome to join our complain in our "submit a bug" feature in game main menu, or join our Discord channel and share your idea.
2) Depth of martial art, management, life, and NPC interaction
In the current version, you will see that we have added a little more content for sects, life sim and NPC interaction.
However each of these systems still have long way to go. For example, there currently are no richer and special interaction options after the marriag. We will consider comprehensively, and then present these contents to players in the form of successive updates or major version updates. There is also the long-awaited baby-making system, which already has an implementation plan and will be updated at the right time.
3) Not the smartest NPC yet
Ashamed to say, we still have a lot to make up for in terms of NPC behavior logic. And we believe that this will also be a long-term accumulation process. For example, the current owner of the building does not have a corresponding identity, and when goods are out of stock, NPCs will not issue tasks for players to collect materials, NPCs can easily jump around in a certain place, and so on.
At the same time, the linkage between the NPC's behavior and the adventure system is fun but also requires rigorous tuning. The current version does not do a good enough job on this point, so it will lead to some contradictory behaviors of NPCs.
But we believe that with the update and iteration of the game version, old players will find that NPC will give people a little surprise from time to time; and every time new players join, they will have different feelings about NPC interaction.
4) The Complement of Adventure – the “random” little story between you and the NPCs
This is something we've been hoping to find time to add to. Although the overall positioning of "The Matchless Kungfu" is high-degree-of-freedom sandbox, as a martial arts-themed game, we also hope that players can experience rich and exciting stories of the world.
Compared with traditional martial arts, we have designed a set of [Adventure System]. Ideally, all adventures can be connected through a net-like system to give players a sense of [story]. The current version has 80+ short adventures and nearly 20 long-term adventures. Among them, the current version of the long-term adventure is relatively “silent” due to the triggering conditions, not all players can trigger these stories in one game. This is something that needs to be kept efficient and updated for a long time, and it is also one of the reasons why we hope to meet you in the way of early access. Many designs relying on community co-creation require everyone to have the premise of playing the game. We also hope that you will pay more attention to our community event in the future, and bring your favorite martial arts content to "The Matchless Kungfu".
3. Public development schedule and mod support issues
We must also convey to you again: the Early Access version released this time is not a finished game. We will continue to add content in the subsequent development process, and test major updates through the test branch.
In order to let everyone – in case there is any – that wish to know more about our development progress have a place to see it, we have opened our development progress list directly to players. Heroes, you can click the link below to view and supervise:
https://shimo.im/tables/Wr3Dpx60BWC9ZG3J?table=OdCFAH5ZJFU&view=cJ08HlqrgbO#/
【Please copy this link and paste it into an external browser for access. For some reason, this website is being recognized as a dangerous site by Steam, but it is simply a work scheduling table.】
* Please notice that the content of this link is not translated into English. You might need a little help from web translation to understand what we are dealing with now.
In the early days after the early access version is released, we will focus on solving the existing bugs of the version, and keep up with continuous small optimization and adventure filling. Then develop and test our "big ones" one by one.
At the same time, we have always kept in mind the issue of whether the workshop is open, which is of great concern to the majority of players. However, the early access version will face frequent changes and updates in the early stage. We are also very worried that if we ope n the workshop/mod support too soon, the mods that players and friends have worked so hard may be failed overnight, causing losses and troubles. So please heroes for now to stay tuned to our official account for good news!
Finally, thank you heroes for your support and attention to our game. We will, as always, listen to players' opinions and suggestions, continuously improve the game, and bring you a better gaming experience.
It will be our happiest thing if anyone can have unique fun in this Early Access version, give suggestions and witness the growth of The Matchless Kungfu!
See you in our patch notes! !
— Sincerely, HuanMos and bilibili
