Thread: E3 Disappointment

  1. #1

    Cool E3 Disappointment

    All the talk about how big E3 was going to be for Empire total War, of the Press, Coverage. And of all the new things for us to exspect. Promises of More information on the Campaign Map. Since E3 NOTHING new has come to the total War website...its the biggest Disappointment Since the last World Cup. My Question being...Why are the total war people being so gay cheers for the fake promises lads

    I'm sure they are working hard to get there product ready. Developers are like modders who just happen to get paid; working on something like a game or a mod is like their baby and when you want to show others what you've accomplished you want it to be the best thing you've made not something medicore.

    And besides I think the marketing aspect of things is really in the hands of Sega, not CA

    TBF there has been quite a lot of new interviews and screenshots lately even if it's not on the official site, just follow the links in these threads for example:

    And you might want to be careful with your language mate, I know it's not how you meant it but you should be aware your comment could be interpreted as homophobic and the Org has quite a strict (and in my view wise) policy on offensive language as you can read here.

    I Suppose your right. Apologies for the ''gay'' Usage then. There has been some cool new Screen Shots, il give them that, but we still have ot seen the Campaign information they Promised us. Its been well over a week, or two, since any update. Anyway...lets just hope its because they are all to busy working in the game :)

    It seems like Leipzig was a good one for M2... wasn't there suddenly a lot of info in German gaming mags after that?

    You don't get a chicken but you sure get a good breakfast.

    LADS PLEASE. Stick to the topic on hand. No more eggs, or chickens for us! We'r here to talk about E3. And how it did not provide the PEOPLE with much promised information! Although if the eggs are boiled.....

    Being that E3 is now little more than a shadow of what it once was, I'm guessing CA deliberately held off on divulging a ton of new info until Leipzig later this month (where they'll receive a lot more exposure).

    Look on the bright side...they're not expecting people to PAY them for a preview/demo version, like with Spore.

    If there is something that made the design staff dizzy, I sure can't wait for these two weeks to get over so I can see it too. Hope I don't faint midway.
