    Someone(s) been busy, looks great!!!!!!!!!!

    What worries me about MTWII and pike battles is how poor the pike battles are in MTWII, can EB improve them(ie; always going for their secondary weapons)?

    Well, one idea (which I believed was used with for example some Hoplites in later versions of EBI) is to simply not give them a secondary weapon. Obviously though this isn´t the perfect solution, and I sincerely hope and believe that the great EB team will satisfactory solve this problem.
    If not, well, that´s quite alright.

    Great work guys, but just to check, this is just the public announcement of the tutorial campaign's development, right? I.e. it hasn't been released yet?

    Medieval 2 battle animation always appears to be in slow-mo to me, or at least in any mod that tones down the "infantry on speed" out of the box battles of the vanilla game (and RTW).

    You know what would be really fun, is to announce the release of, say, a tutorial campaign but without a link, leaving it up to the fans to find it for themselves.

    Brilliant idea! If you let me in on it, I can set up a virtual labyrinth of hoax sites and false links filled with Rick-Rolls and You Got Owned´s, only to, in the end, after hours of desperate searching, you find your way through to the download.

    Considering it's one of the first previews - look what we get: movies and stuff!

    I don't think so. It is quite pretty. But when playing M2TW I always get the feeling that something is incomplete, the atmosphere of RTW is gone, and I am a bit troubled if that might go to EB2. However, on that stage it is perfectly normal for EB2 to look incomplete since it is just that.

    Great graphics, and the excellent music from EB1. Maybe a professional movie maker would have made something a bit more polished, and on Large or Huge unit scale the final result would be even more "epic" but this is still great. Thanks EB team!

    p.s. you certainly did better than CA once again, they had the green arrows on in their ETW trailer :S

    So, I repeat: OMG
    I agree. And I NEVER say OMG over anything.

    I loved the 'ragged' marching that just made it all seem much more like men marching.

    I haven't been following EB2 for months, since I prefer to play EB1.1 than get excited years before we see the results (remember how long we were watching PI for? Although I like their open beta). Are the small unit sizes down to the settings when the film was captured, or is it part of the MTW2 engine?

    As Leviathan DarklyCute so bluntly and rudely put it, the video highlights not just the progress made and the possibilities but the amount of work that still needs to be put in as well. I make this comment after watching the video multiple times. This adds to my list of why I probably wont play this until summer 09. The game will definitely be one of the best I will ever have played and will be the greatest example of detail, education and fun which I will compare to every other game I buy for the next five years, but I will most likely wait until both Gaza and EBII are close to perfection before I devote my weekday nights and entire weekends to the game.

    I've tried to download the video, but Windows Media Player only gives sound and no images. I can view videos on WMP, so that is not the problem. Do I need to change some settings to display .avi videos or is it something else?
