Rome TW - Remastered

A video of some of the most recent changes to the game:



Definitely a promising sign that Feral Interactive is being responsive to player comments, which is never a bad thing.

Hello all, long time no visit.

Steam uninstalled and downloaded my RTW Remastered. My save games have gone AWOL. Does anyone know a)are they compatible, b) where are they??
I've looked in all the usual little nooks and crannies steam game saves can be tucked away. Are they gone forever??

Not too bothered about the save games per se. It's just annoying, particularly as I need to beat the game again to unlock playable factions

Edit: I must have lost my login. I was here in 2005 maaaan :)

Do you mean that you had the classic RTW installed and it uninstalled it? I highly highly doubt that save game files from the original game will be compatible with the remaster. However, they did say that you wont need to beat the game to unlock all factions so you dont have to worry about that.

I wish my RTW would suddenly change to Remastered! You sure it's the Remastered tho?
Also, a simple descr_strat file change will allow you to make all other factions playable in the original RTW.

Well, I guess it will change to Remastered by the end of this month, provided you buy it.

I've already got it . It added Total War Rome Remastered to the games list but did not change anything with the original.

Dude, what's your secret as the game doesn't release until 04/29?

So once you buy it, it is added to your Steam library, but its only unlocked for you once its released (or so I assume thats how it will work).

Excactly. It's in the Steam Library but can't download it before it is released.

I see a slight uptick in overall TW forums activity so I guess having Rome TW Remastered releasing will bring back players to the franchise.

In the upcoming week they are lifting NDA from Barbarian Invasion and Alexander. So that should be interesting.

Perhaps an .Org renaissance?

Definitely interested to see some gameplay from those two, though I do really like how they put night battles in the main game. From what Ive seen so far, the night battles look great.

Also, after a night battle the campaign map stays in night mode (until you end the turn). It's a small detail but I really like it.

Luckily. As Total War games do not have a plot, it doesn't make sense to force a players to walk through the whole campaign of given faction just to unblock the rest.

It like it too.

Some of them do, but a minor one - Napoleon and Attila are somewhat plot driven.

RTWR certainly brought me back.
And about 99% of what I've seen/read so far has me VERY excited about playing again.
