Maybe I should try an Austrian Campaign, but I have to say I don't see the problems you guys are, just a by the way claudio, the Barbary states start off at war with EVERYONE. Theyre meant to be arabic/african pirates, they just now accept peace occaisonally whereas they never ever did before.
I have to say that in my 40 years worth of a campaign so far, that I have seen the AI make peace, they don't always but I know that they do. France Declared war on my protectorate the United States, and took a province, shortly after i wondered why they werent attacking each other, it was because they made peace. The Native americans have always attacked everyone, although the Iroquis Confederacy asked for peace with me after they were down to one province, I don't really know about allies, I haven't really tried allies since Medieval 2 Total War, but every single one of the Protectorates I've had that I have not declared war on, have been completely reliable, I just wish that all their alliances and wars would reset when they become protectorates and that they could not declare war without asking you if they could first, and that nations had to look at their relations with you before declaring war on your protectorates.
By the way, why would the whole world not look at you suspiciously, after declining joining an ally that asked you to join them in a war against its enemy? Well i dunno there, theres poitns for and against I suppose. But, I actually in this version can CHOOSE who I want to be at war with, I'm down to being at war with Russia and Bavaria and I just wiped out Bavaria and Courland has taken Moscow from Russia!
I'm very impressed with this verison of ETW so far, Great Britian even just launched a naval invasion and took Boston from the United States, after I wiped them off America 20 years ago! I do notice that the AI does have a tendency to sometimes be incredibly careful in its protection of its territories and sometimes forgetting to put any troops in some at all,
This game still needs some work, but it is a FAR CRY from version 1.3 in my opinion. Main reason being I started a game day before the patch came out and I continued playing it with the 1.4 and I realise that could mean some thigns don't work right but you know, it feels like a completely different game from what I was playing the day before, and it is actually fun now.
