Hi guys,
I don't find any topic about that (sorry if it has been already discuss), but is there any plan about making multiplayer campaign for RTW?
Thanks

apparently so

CA's henchmen have in the past said that although multi campaign wont work in an expansion theyl have to wait for thr next game, and geuss wat RTW is the next game.

i'm always amazed how people constantly gripe about a single player campaign. have you guys actually played stw or mtw single player? its SLOW. it would never work in a mp format. it would be at a serious lack for fun. i'm glad CA has realized this, and not wasted time with a futile effort. plus, if they did include one, then all the forum goers would post about how boring it is.

Id also love playing a sp form of campaing in mp but it wont work, an avrage turn takes at least 40 mins for me in the late era counting the battles ande there are hundreds of turns to be played if you go throught the entire ages and to me it appears impossible to make it work in mp, if they donsnt do like the civ3 developers and invent new non classic ways of playing civ in mp but I have a hard time seeing how that would work to there are lots of battles each turn here taking up large amounts of time somtehing wich there isnt in civ3.

I'd be very happy if the current MP was perfected and rid of all bugs first.

I hope the Rome Total War has a multiplayer campaign, but I do hope it isn't turn-based, I hope CA have copied Paradox even more by implementing a time based realtime mechanic in the campaign, which would enable online players to choose how long it would take for time to progress before playing. What I mean is we could choose whether each game year would take 1 minute or however long we wish.

I had hoped that MTW had Multiplayer Campaign so i could play against my little brother.

I can't if i have to wait for RTW...

He only has a P3 400mhz and i seriously doubt he can play RTW, he can barely play MTW....
