Suggestions for the next TW game

No.The Gunpowder is excellent! I love that era! I only wish that CA could make the Korean expansion.

No fantasy total war.Stick to history.Otherwise I would never buy it.

even though it caused the "blob" problem). Also it's just a collection of duel. Units should fight as unit, and you should NOT have five guys standing around a foe and doing nothing but looking at a sixth fighting alone. This make close-up fighting look ridiculous. It's nice to have these neat animations, but what is the point if their principle is defeated by making the hand-to-hand fighting disjointed.
Units should fight as unit

That's european style.Not Japanese.If you looked at it,the samurai came and fought like the old guard.One samurai vs one samurai,2 samurai vs 2 samurai.

Erm...This is Japan we're talking about.Samurai would never have always just faced one samurai,they would have faced manother samurai in battle.Shogun 2 has excellent combat.RTW has no combat at all.One slash at a enemy's shield and he;s dead.How is that real? You're making the total war series numb again.No way.CA has to move forward,

You know, I actually wouldn't mind seeing some sort of "fantasy" Total War. There was a game a few years ago called Warhammer Mark of Chaos, and it was almost like Total War, except it had a defined story and was strictly linear; you fought a battle, you moved on in the story to the next battle. It was actually a really good game - I enjoyed it a lot. If CA were to grab an IP like Warhammer, I could see a Total War game using that being somewhat interesting.

But still, I'm hoping for Medieval 3. I can't think of anything that should change or be added from what the series already has. Things like "work on diplomacy" are pretty much always going to be a work in progress, and should be a given.

I'll also agree with the post 2 posts above me - Gunpowder really isn't that bad. Empire was a really good game.

Suggesstion/persinal prefrence

time frame:Germany world war 2
Factions: nazi germany with swastikas please, USSR france british empire nazi italy the republic of spain the ottoman empire sryia ukraine sweeden poland denmark all the other factions that took place in this war
emerging factions: afrika corps.

Faction leaders aldolf hitler stalin and the rest.


campaign should inclued diplomacy. goverment slider were you get to chose if you want to be more right or left. right means the nazis of the population will favor you more and left means all will be normal except a nazi revolt might happen,
air battles these will be basicaly played like shogun 2's naval battles but without the boarding just select the plane unit you want to controle right click on a enemey plain and it will attack atoumanicaley.
tanks should behave like tanks get hit in the rear a few times by another tank and boom.

battle map size should be about the size of napoliean battle maps basicaley wide open aeras but expect small squad sizes and fast paced battles

The only problem is that we have Hitler.Not many people like him.Otherwise I'm all for it.

Some people need to get over that - it's all in the past. That generation has practically died off by now anyway, so you really can't blame anyone for any of that any more. Besides, I would argue that the Japanese had just as many comparable and downright dirty acts that could easily consider them just as bad, but no one seems to care about that anymore. It's war - dirty acts happen in war.

Don't blame them.I think they were less brutal than the nazis.The Nazis killed anyone who didn't belong into their regin.The ''dirty '' acts are the Japanese's actions,You shouldn't have bought shogun 2,if you hate them that much.If you can't say I want a korean expansion of shogun 2,then don't ask for WW2 either.You must blame them.Thanks to Hitler,today many westerns compare themselves as superior(when they are not) There are Neo Nazi groups in all of Europe,and racsism is tolerant.If you want to make a game about killing jews and that stuff,good luck on you.Then maybe you will gain bad reception.I would never support it.WW2 seems good,but it won't work.Espcially in land battles.In Air,it could work,but it won't do.

Yes,Medeivial 2 felt like a cheap game.Dont get me wrong here,but it just felt bad with huge amounts of historical inaccuracy.It looks good,but a Mediveal 3 would do,And spain never existed as kingdom during its early history.

Has anyone watched Avatar:The Last Airbender? That would be perfect for a total war game.
