What will you do when you first get MT2W?

Hey,

What will you do once you get MT2W or like I call it, MTW2??
Play SP?PlayMP? Do PBEM? Start Modding? or just stare at it all day before you do anything,escally if you going to get the collectiors edition (like me :-))??

I first going to do a MP game, then some customs games, then back on MP. if it comes out on the 10th, I won't have time till later to do MP, but if it comes out on the 14th, I would have alot of time then :-).

I plan to get in my recliner and get comfy with the manual. I love reading manuals.

That is what I will do. I would play as the aztecs and see if they could invade Europe, Muhahahahaha. But first read everything on the box on the way home. Maybe some things in the manual.

First thing I'll do is pray that it will actually run on my XP processor. :sweatdrop:

Second thing I'll probably end up doing is stealing my Brother's PC :wall:

Poll added. I deliberately kept "play the tutorial" off the list of options, as it is a rather boring option (as would be "read the manual", come to think of it).

Re: What will you do when you first get MT2W?

I'm gonna start a good old long campaign as England. That will give me some valuable experience with the game and then, when I have finished conquering the world (and Jerusalem), I will start a campaign as the Holy Roman Empire.

After that, ... I will see. :)

never to late to start playing on MP :-)

Thanks econ for adding the poll to this.

I do MP first, then when I get done, read the manual,then do 1 custom game, then back online again.

Re: What will you do when you first get MT2W?

I'll backup the whole folder and snoop around all the files for a bit, before impatience gets the better of me and I boot it up.
And then I think I shall do a couple of basic custom battles to get a feel for the factions.

Re: What will you do when you first get MT2W?

Custom battle, thousands of peasants... For tuning the graphics options... (Plus I think the peasants might use the spining long weapon style of animation so I want to have a laugh at all the Kung Fu peasant battles)...

The the tutorial and a short campaign as the English...

Start a Easy/Super Easy/Easiest difficulty campaign as the English to find out what's new then quit after a decade or so and start a proper campaign as the HRE on a harder difficultly.

Re: What will you do when you first get MT2W?

I'll probably rediscover all the units, get my bearings w/ the camera and hotkeys again, and see how good the ai really is... then on to multiplayer.

Re: What will you do when you first get MT2W?

I Voted Custom Battle because I would like to check it out first and see the beuty of the game. But I would have liked to vote long campaign because I dont really count a couple custom battles as first though technically it will be first. Also since I have to upgrade I haven't played the demo yet so when I buy my new computer I will go straight to EB to buy the game. So when I open the box it will be first time really seeing it in action.

Re: What will you do when you first get MT2W?

hotkeys and stuff seems different, see I proably do 1-2 Custom games before I go on MP,so I can get myself back in shape..

Re: What will you do when you first get MT2W?

I found the demo hotkeys for run, special ability etc to be the same as Rome.

You forgot to mention 'reading the manual' in your poll.

:charge: :duel: :charge:

A battle against the AI. Whenever I install a game, I've only little time left to play it before I have to do something else on the same day. And this gives me the opportunity to both get an inside glimpse of the best units and get a feel for the (revised) controls etc.

Here is someone who most definately has her priorities straight. :2thumbsup:

Me? I'm going to start a campaign, get bored, and go for the historical battles, after which I will be suitably warmed up to finish a full-scale campaign.

Re: What will you do when you first get MT2W?

Install, edit preferences, play custom battle, exit early to turn off stupid green arrows & tweak settings, play another custom battle or two then start up a campaign, quite possibly as the French.
High on the priority would be to mod so I can access other factions, want to see what its like as eg the Roman Empire :balloon2:

Hah. I tried that with R:TW but the box was winning until I figured out to remove the cellophane wrapping.

Actually, that is the first thing I'll do: remove the cellophane wrapper. It's part of the ritual of a new game and there's a certain physical pleasure to be derived from it. Kinky, I know, but there we are...

Re: What will you do when you first get MT2W?

The first thing that I will do is mod it so I can play with any faction, most likely the Byzantines. But what I usually do is dink around with some faction I wouldn't normally play as for "practice" for awhile then start the real thing.
