Some of you...probably thought I either snapped, chartered a flight, or somehow got the demo...you'd be mistaken.

I was merely gathering my cosmic demo desire like powers, to unleash them yet again.

LET THE DEMO's BEGIN

Of course they are releasing a unit tommorrow/today, they fear the unrivaled power of the mob, they are making a game where the established powers are being beheaded by angry mobs. It is best to listen to one's own advice.

It had better be an interesting naval unit. I want to see something with ours or cannons in unusual places. Not just antoerh variation on the frigate.

Maybe if they called the ship H.M.S Demo they could say they released a demo and.... No! Don't give them excuses!

The H.M.S. Demo sounds like a fine ship,

espically if it had where the date went, the date of when the demo would come out.

H.M.S. Demo
Est:

See CA, I'm giving you leeway, it could either be a demo today or TOMMORROW :P

You're so gracious. I hope it's today though. Certain people are holding me responsible for getting CA to produce something. They keep cracking their knuckles menacingly and making pointed comments about how breakable human bones are. I'm scared.

I really want to play Empire because it will be the first TW game since Medieval that I can play with all the graphical features turned on. V-sync, anti-aliasing, shaders, antistropic filtering, bloom lighting, they all sound so... exotic.

**Polemists** · 01-27-2009, 12:30

I am quite gracious, espically since CA is a month late with the game in the first place :P

Heck i'd even settle for

"Hey guys, it's not very polished, but here's a battle demo."

Just something rather then..oh...another month...let me reboot up Rome and MTW2 again....

They are fun games but i'm in mood for newness.

Which of course is why

We know CA already must have a demo somewhere, because they keep rolling it out for the press to play. I imagine it can't be that difficult to polish up a press demo and then send it out to us.

That leaves us with Britain vs. America or Britian vs. Prussia I think.

**Polemists** · 01-27-2009, 13:06

They do have something they show the press, though often companies now to try to get away with,

"Oh that, it's not a demo, that's a small chunk of the full game....and we can't diviy out that chunk even though we have all the files....because....copy and paste is challenging..."

I mean common CA, we all know you are going to be shipping a pre release of the full game at least 2 weeks before release to let the magazine reviewers review the full game before last few tweaks. All i'm asking for is a demo,

THE DEMO

Keep in mind CA, last time you held out on us for a demo it leaked out of your office, i'm just saying, the more anticpated we get, the looser your chances of being the ones to be the heroes who gave the fans the demo become.

Cause if everyone gets it through a leak like last time, it will be like when you released mtw2's demo officially a week and a half later and everyone just went, "Oh...yea....i've been playing that...."
