Man, you're obsessive about this aren't you :laugh4:

I'll probably concentrate on my HRE long campaign first, but I imagine I'll pop in every once in a while, crush players such as yourself, and then go back to conquering :2thumbsup:

Re: Will you Be Doing the MP on MTW2??

if the interface isn’t as horrible as Romes and all the games are compatible I will. I have gold edition and there barley any games I can play and for those I usually get one of those stinking totally uninformative "failed to join game" errors.

Thats a bold statement for someone who almost only have seen the rotten era of rtw. :dizzy2:

Nothing wrong with a little boldness though but you need a little bonk on the head :smash:

Period of times means squat to do with skill, especially with a new game.

I will probably play a campaign as England and Scotland then go to multiplayer. While doing the campaign I will probably still go to multiplayer sometimes only because of Clan duty :egypt:

Re: Will you Be Doing the MP on MTW2??

I've player some of SHogun's multiplayer, But my main chucnk of Multiplaying comes from Medieval, since i barely touched Rome's, it was bad.

If they can make Medieval 2's multiplayer near as good, as the multiplayer was during Medieval:TW:VI i just might give it a go

Re: Will you Be Doing the MP on MTW2??

Perhaps.

I'll give it a long try and then see whether it is worth staying or not.

Its not like I am going to spend much time on SP for sure.

I won't be able to play it though until early december. Guess that gives them hopefully enough time to release the first patch.

Only games I play online are FPS, I only play strategy games for campaigns/custom battles.

Re: Will you Be Doing the MP on MTW2??

MP battles are like Custom battles Dan.06, only your opponent/s are HI not AI. MP attraction depends on the quality of the server and lobby, which is why nobody bothered with Rome or BI. With a smooth server like MTW and VI and a lobby of STW standard, MP would be enjoyable providing the balance is better than awful mess of RTW

Re: Will you Be Doing the MP on MTW2??

Very much Correct Orda. One Reson alot of "Old" players left RTW, and some even left TW for good, was because there was to many people using high money and greece and such, Bugs, To many Ploblems with GS and such. if things get fix in MTW2, mabye it will change for the better..

Until then, we could only dream the dream of gory days :D

I am surprised that no one mentions NTW2. If I may say so it is a BLOODY good game. ~D

And yes you have quality opponents. ~;)

You misunderstood me. Let me offer an anecdote:

You could give a monkey a computer and let him play total war for 50 years, he'd still be rubbish. The amount of time you play, doesn't mean you'll be any good.

Indeed. Even the biggest MTW MP "vet" will need time to familiarize himself with the units. It's not because you have MTW experience that you will automatically "pwn" everyone else. It's like Chess: You have a large chance of defeating a newcomer, but the newbie can actually hurt you and even win from time to time. In MTW, I had a nasty surprise from a newbie and he kicked my ass so hard, I returned to single player battles in order to train myself a bit more. :)

Anyway, I hope M2TW online is way more stable than RTW online. If it is and I can find some "mature" players (aka players that don't spam the uberunit to death), I will stick around.

Re: Will you Be Doing the MP on MTW2??

I will be playing MP almost exclusively. I know a couple of other old FEAR members who are waiting for MTW2, so we may see the rise of a few old clans.

I hope the lobby is better this time around.

MTW and MTWVI MP was great fun. I played it far, far more than the campaigns. Im very excited to see if theyve made it better since the huge letdown RTW was.

What happened to FearofNC.. He decided to get back in game (In BI) and revive FEAR clan a few months back.. I even had a couple of games with him ~~(In which I won, but he thought that the game was imbalanced through that.. I had 6 units of tanks (Gah, yes tanks <--- Clibs) that simply were able to kill both his army and his ally's (RTKDagonet))~~ but he shows no more.. Has he forgot about it or anything?

think I also got misunderstood.

I meant, I got expericene from the first MTW,that will carry over, but yes, I will need time to famailize myself with the new units and such before I can be back Old School Again..

Re: Will you Be Doing the MP on MTW2??

I'll go to MP immediately after install, to see if it works, and what kind of hoops one needs to jump thru to get a game. Probably/hopefully play a game or two using random units just to test the server. If you're looking for an easy early win, look for me. :)

If it's a big hassle, I'll stay away for awhile until issues get resolved, and start SP campaigns, to learn the finer details of the game.

Re: Will you Be Doing the MP on MTW2??

I plan on diving into the MP experience in M2TW but probably not after I've played the campaign for some time. Singleplayer still has first position in my heart.
Tried MP a bit for R:TW but it was just too repulsing to keep it up. I hope my main hindrance in M2:TW will be my crappy computer for the first few months until I get around to upgrading my system.

Cheers!

Hah. I dont want to sound too bad. NTW2 looks very good and the designers did really put lots of work in it which is showing clearly in the game. Unfortunately, it still suffers from the same problems RTW does, which are all related to the battle engine. And cannot be modded away.

One major flaw is that it is completely irrelevant whether a shooting unit is deployed thinly or deeply for shooting effectiveness. In fact deploying in depth actually makes them much more effective shooters since they'll occupy less room so you can have more units on a smaller front... So I really rather play NTW 1 instead. On the other hand I really hope translating NTW 2 to M2TW would be a relative easy thing to do.
