EU: Rome

[sniedermeier]

Would any of you great modders consider helping out the guys over at Europa Universalis: Rome? Anyone could really help out with the names, cultures, history, etc.

They need to have the game, first of all and from what I saw in the EU:R thread in the EB I forum, many people are quite renitent towards the company and thus the game, in this forum.

As far as I believe the EU:R EB, from the reports, basically the team is:
1) Waiting for improvements in the overall gameplay of the game (e.g. patches) and the modding community of the game to grow and develop.
2) Focussing in EB II first of all.

No, they don't (need to own the game)? They just need to share historical information with people modding EU:R.

That game is crap IMHO, tried the demo and found it boring. It would have even lost against rtw if they were released at the same time.

I am a long term fan of Paradox games and I have to agree. EUI and EUII took many months of my life, while Victoria and Crusader Kings, although extremely flawed in many ways were jewels in the rough. The newest offerings from the company just lack the fun factor imho, and EU Rome plays as a mindblowingly boring mod of EUIII, with some majorly bad design issues on top. The way they represent the "barbarians" and all that hording....... seriously .

EB is ten times better than EU Rome and I'm sure EBII will just blow it to oblivion.

Well, I'd say the same about EB and RTW...

Ugh, yes they do. They need to have the game registered in the forum, otherwise they can't post in the Scenarios and Modifications Topic in Paradox forum. And making a mod for a game they don't own is...quite suspicious in a company's eyes.

Anyways, coming back to a topic of infamy!

How many people have bought it so far?

What are your opinions?

I heard that the game was a large scale failure, with many buyers saying that was probably the money that was most wasted in their lives.

We may not have agreed about Non-playable factions, but man I'm with you on this, the reviews I saw said EU: Rome was awful and so I didn’t even buy the game, and I agree with General Appo the EB team should not be distracted with such minor issues.

Blasphemy!! All Team members should focus on EBII, not waste time on unimportant errands such as this! EBII is the greatest project in the history of mankind, and all measures must be taken to ensure that the Team members are not disturbed or distracted.
