I'll be a VI player tomorrow

[Balamir]

Yes, I will have VI in my hands tomorrow, but I've heard a lot of people having problems about their CD keys, some say the game crashes, and there is lots of bugs. As stated in a thread about VI "do's and dont's" it says dont install direct X, so I wont. Anything in particular that I need to be careful about?

Thanks

dont quit during a game as it causes it to crash in mp

king dies at 56 every time

and the usual crash bugs

i think thats it for me

Don't be confident when facing 60 vikings with 300 men... http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif

Yes, never trust Vikings. They will make peace with you only to attack you neext turn, never lessen ur stacks near them. Better yet...be them http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif

As install goes, it is important to know that your previous save games and replay WILL NOT work with VI.

If you want to finish a 1.1 campaign or watch 1.1 replay, I strongly recommand you make a copy of your 1.1...

And dont worry about not knowing how, there is a read me on install about making v1.1 playable.

If you intend to install DX 9(the game will prompt you to do this, but it is NOT essentil)create a restore point incase things go the way of the pear.
