I'm wary about the first person modes. But Im enthusiastic about the off map bombardments that you can call in. I think they are paving the way for a WW game in the future. Maybe not the next big release, but sometime soonish.

Looks interesting otherwise!

is 1st person mode really new? i toggle into it in S2 already by accident now and again...

**A Nerd** · 11-29-2011, 02:27

Well, as long as it is an option and not required I guess the 1st person thingie wouldn't be too bad. Good for some I guess.

Yep, not terribly worried about that, I'm much more concerned about how CA is going to balance game play. Last time they introduced firearms in the form of matchlocks we had the main TW forums lit up with OP postings. Can you imagine what happens when gatling guns show up mowing down entire armies?

This sounds really nice. Wonder how they will make it all balanced though, but I'm already looking forward to fight with 'ancient' Samurai armies against modern riflemen!
