Shogun 2 Multiplayer Expectations and Wanted List.

Well for me the main priority is to get a working general chat lobby back, similar to what we had prior to Empire. As to the other things, I would just hope that they wouldn't follow the demands of all those faction diversity goons and keep the units simple. We don't need difference between factions to make the game interesting...

I've long since given up on them actually improving the game. If they can just stop messing it up more and more upon each release and get it back to where it was 10+ years ago, I'll be happy. Hell, go back to 2d if that helps.

As excited as i am about shogun2 i wont actually buy it without a mp foyer for chat, i like ntw alot but i cannot get into it because of the lack of a foyer it just makes the mp experience so bland and shallow.
That said ntw is a good game and im sure stw2 will be a good game.

Multiplayer campaign would be dream come true.

If they don't make multiplayer campaign then at least hotseat(a la M2TW) option should be made available.

Agreed completely.
