    Default Suggestion - Steam Page

    TotalWar.org should make a steam page as the Clan Community Shield does, that way people can join the grp without us having to post a billion posts about what their contact info is, and then pick friends off the list as you wish.

    A wise idea. Maybe Tomi or one of the mods could get round to making a thread for the purpose and then pin it?

    I think it's a great idea

    I will create a Steam group called Empire Multiplayer (if the name is open), and link it direct to this forum.

    I will be back with the particulars when done.


    Does anyone have a avatar in mind that we could use to represent this Org forum to the Steam world?

    Maybe should be "Org Empire Multiplayer", or do you have a better name?

    Stuck with Empire Multiplayer.

    At the link:

    http://steamcommunity.com/groups/etwmp

    Still need a representative symbol for the group.

    That was my first thought too

    But my following thoughts were that “this” group should be specific to Empire and to Multiplayer, and that the Org symbol was generic to the whole Org population.

    Now there should be an Org Group, and other forum specific groups also, and I will (have done now) present that to Admin

    But for us, what symbol (and we can superimpose text over it like - totalwar.org) best demonstrates Empire Multiplayer? Keep in mind these avatars are square.


    And Thanks Pevergreen, for being the first to join

    Nice!

    Perhaps one of the Wallpapers, or screenshots. I have no skill with graphics, so I can't help out there.

    Is that generated by Steam? Where's the .4 coming from? I feel tempted to sign up too and score a whopping 0.01.

    I believe its done by amount of time you play.

    Ive run steam once in the last 2 years, that was to play about an hour of Dawn of War II mp beta.
    EDIT:
    The Steam rating is a gameplay stat viewable next to a SteamID profile.
    Note.png Note: For the sake of this article, r represents the rating score of any arbitrary Steam account.
    Note.png Note: For the sake of this article, h represents the playing time over the last two weeks of any arbitrary Steam account.

    Rating Score Rating Title Playing time (last two weeks)
    r = 10 EAGLES SCREAM! h ≥ 32.0
    9 ≤ r < 10 Still not 10 28.8 ≤ h < 32.0
    8 ≤ r < 9 COBRA KAI! 25.6 ≤ h < 28.8
    7 ≤ r < 8 Wax on, Wax off 22.4 ≤ h < 25.6
    6 ≤ r < 7 Oooh! Shiny! 19.2 ≤ h < 22.4
    5 ≤ r < 6 Halfway Cool 16.0 ≤ h < 19.2
    4 ≤ r < 5 Master of Nothing 12.8 ≤ h < 16.0
    3 ≤ r < 4 Shooting Blanks 9.6 ≤ h < 12.8
    2 ≤ r < 3 Nearly Lifeless 6.4 ≤ h < 9.6
    1 ≤ r < 2 El Terrible! 3.2 ≤ h < 6.4
    0 ≤ r < 1 Teh Suck 0.0 ≤ h < 3.2
    So if you play one minute, I guess you will have the lowest score possible.

    The dot com started theirs yesterday.



    http://steamcommunity.com/groups/empiretotalwar

    I’m sure everyone who buys the game will list-up with them, but the relevance of who is online to play the game is kind of moot, as I’m sure the majority of them will be single players.

    Whereas our group is specialized to multiplayer interests

    I doubt the MPers will, as those people won't be of much use for them.

    Steam vs Steam

    totalwar.com = 267

    http://steamcommunity.com/groups/empiretotalwar

    totalwar.org = 14

    http://steamcommunity.com/groups/etwmp

    Come on guys and gals, I know we can do better.

    If you are going to play Empire at all, you will need a Steam account.

    Why not get that now, and show your support for the Org and it's multiplayer forum.

    The Empire Multiplayer Steam Group is an assembly of avid Total War multiplayers who share their views together on the totalwar.org Empire Multiplayer forum. Our common interest is the advancement and enjoyment of Empire Total War multiplayer. Please feel free to add yourself to our listing here, and visit our forum for news and information on Empire Multiplayer.

    The problem is that they are the official, non mp only group. We are a fan, mp only group. We well never come close to them, in numbers on steam, or in general.

    We got an overnight boost to 33 members after a post on the Parliament forum, which I can no longer find (the post).

    What happened, or did I just miss it
