Oh how little the masses realise how much work some of us veterans do....

It could and did. I can't say it was my most enjoyable online game ever. However, a promise is a promise, and my defeat means that CA *will* be producing a patch. Just as well he won really isn't it?

Seems u fell for the Wolves Hunt. I cant blame our Khan. The young wolves should grow up well fed from time to time.
Time moves quick when u have fun http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/wink.gif
I suggest we need 2 patches at minimum.
First the majority of the bugs we have been reporting sp and mp.
and secondly after 1-2 months from now. a unitbalancing patch. or at least one that can not be done by ourselves. although this is not me to direct. in the end the mizus will bent over this. but our Wolves researcher found already some major misbalances which people will misuse for a fast win http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/frown.gif
Furthermore myself reported 80 people online yesterday. and with teh release of teh game in all europe coming weeks (example Slovenia will get it 2-3 weeks for now) it will certainly grow to a new tw record (old record was about 134 or something).

Seems so. http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/biggrin.gif Get cover!
On a serious note, now everyone can see the true value of the forums here...the 'clique' so to say can be useful sometimes. http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/smile.gif Thanks.

In keeping with the flavour of TW at the moment...and with Monsta priding himself on being glad to 'coin' a phrase...from this point on we should be calling the CA team THE VATICAN ( bet Monsta spelt it wrong).
They may adopt this themselves.....hoods and call their boss the Pope..but back to the point of this battle for patche(s).
2 would make sense (if not too much to ask of the Holy Fathers)...and the battle should be made available for us to see...not to mock BrotherGil but to help us during these often frustrating times...so when we are angry at some of the bug issues we can tune in on BrotherGil being driven in circles as his men die from heart failure chasing the ghostly units of Magyar!
No it isnt a 'super' cav army..unless you have 6 arms like Magyar..or cement boots like Monsta!
Tera your 'clique' is louder/larger...they always are when they control the media http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/biggrin.gif ..but answer me this..who is the oldest TW clan?
Hmm nobody knows the answer to that question Monsta, you have never asked it! http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/biggrin.gif

hmm the replay will be uploadable at teh wolfsite when the replay feature is debugged ok?
before everyone start to talk about unit rebalancing within the 1/2 mth of launch, i advise against that action to be taken that early.
There are many factions, each many unit types. When one finds an "unbalanced" army that beats the the hell out of everyone, we shouldn't jump on the bandwagon of changing the stats. Is enough time given for the gamers to exploit the alternatives to beat this unbalanced army? Sometimes its more fun exploring the a counter army to this unbalance army while maintaining balance of strength to fight against other army sets.
Patching the troopstats too early will destroy and rob everyone of this fun. Maybe later, when almost everyone agree that these unbalances is destroying the game.

Well said tootee. It is indeed too early to jump to conclusions regarding unit balance.

it was nt about unitbalancing, its merely about difference in army types and skill i guess. isnt it a bit unbalanced to let our Khan compete against a dev? perhaps the battle showed a nice historical element of the mongols clashing with europe. the happless knights meeting an unknown mobile army.

hehehe...i aint gonna even TRY to balance this game. i'm too old and wont live that long ;)
besides, we need a patch or two yet before a balancing would mean anything. patches off fix things that werent even anticipated, or throw other things off that also werent anticipated, so 'balancing' is quite a ways off yet, and that's even assuming anything needs to be balanced. so far, it's too bloody confusing with all these units to even say what might be 'balanced' or not.

Where abouts r the replay files in MTW folder?
i tested all units, just some missle things are not compled ready, but i can say its well done!
some things wich i posted already should be changed, but arent such a big misbalanced...just a litle 1 wich Dont destroy the gameplay.
and again, plz dont go ahead and change the stats how u guys like! mostly its just ur opinion and if jsut a few decide about many we have a prob.
u guys feared a rush once, so u did everything that this wont happen, but u caused so many other probs that the new probs was much more bad than a rush u lost sometimes!
noone will forget the extrem guns on mi, yes they beat every rush but is was a silly shootwar nothing else! now u get rushed often but u can face the rush and beat it, this guys get beat by skill! so they will change there opinion and use some missles too.
and toote is right here, just coz some guys found a good setup u cant change the stats...with all this antiunits u can beat every army!
