    No, it won't be finished before Empires. But we don't expect to compete with them. I have no doubt that you will come crawling back to EBII when Empires has run its time.

    How right you are. I got M2TW three weeks ago, played it for exactly a week, got frustrated and went back to good old EB, which I am still playing. I guess the only good thing that will come out of M2TW is the fact that I will be able to play EB II using it.

    No you won't, you'll need the Kingdoms expansion (as well) to play EB 2.

    That's not really fair. Did you try and mods like Stainless Steel?

    Oh, I expect Empires to be the best thing sliced bread. I'm really looking forward to munching down a toasted Empire's disc with some butter and jam. Is going to be delicious!

    I think you should use a long time to make eb 2, and wait untill empires has run its time. So that people are getting really excsited and really looking forvard to it right before you release it. Instead of being like "we have always been here while you played empire". If you use a long time to make it, it will be better too. Maybe the capital cities project.

    I doubt they´ll really time the release for best commercial effect, especially seeing as it´s not commercial. When it´s done, it´s done. And then they´ll hold on to it for themselves for 3 years just to piss us off.

    We really don't care if y'all are playing Empires. We'll release it when we feel we are ready too. We are a mod. stop confusing us with a games developer, its difficult to live up to.

    I suppose the problem is that many are confused when all they do is donate, instead of paying you guys for your hardwork and dedication.

    so what you are basically saying is that they should hold the game even longer

    Some of us don't have the comp. to play empires. So some of us will be playing EBII and pretending Empires never came out.

    Just what I was going to say. Although I can say that CA will not be happy with "y'all" if "y'all" release EB II around the release of Empires. (being a temporary resident of the American South I just had to make a crack about a limey using "y'all" - supposing that you truly are a Brit)

    I'm more concerned about your modder slaves running off and playing Empires and not coming back for a while.

    Not to worry, I'm sure Fallout 3 has filled that role already . Actually, I was thinking I was going to play M2TW in all my free time for months before it came out, but I couldn't stomach more than a week of it and quickly returned to EB. Perhaps Empire will be different.

    Having problems getting EB2 to run? Try these solutions.

    Fallout 3? More like Fable 2. That game is the best except for EB 1.1. (and Gears of War 2)

    I was just playing fallout 3 its not as great as everyone was saying. i have the 360 version though. so no mods :( my dude is an alcoholic jethead super-commando. hahahaha
    I'm actually buying M2TW for the sole purpose of playing EBII... I might find some time to slay some brits as the Scottish though.
