dont let yourself be hyped

[Magyar Khan]

Guys sorry to say but we fell into the marketing trap twice in a row. Just dont let yourself get hyped about a game-features or release date.

first let them fix the easiest things in the mongol invasion add on... lets see how they do that. the way they leave the support now will be the same they will leave the support in teh crusader version. like in black & whhite lets help them learn how to grow up...

I agree.

I think I'll have half those bugs (err...features?) worked out before they do!



I'm sure they're working on it. What do you want to bet that most of the folks there didn't play it through before they sent it into production. Gripes about missing features and buggy behaviours aside (which I do have some to share as well), the WLE is tits! It's a lot more fun than STW was out of the box. There's more to do, and things seem to be pretty well developed at this point.

Try out my SuperTroopers mods and you might find a Unit stats combination that you like. I made different stats combinations for different types of play. IE. Tougher Hojo Units for when you want to play as the Mongols, Tougher Mongols when you are Hojo, a Super Guns set, and so on. That should put the spice back into fighting the AI a little bit, at least until I figure out how to manipulate the rest of this game's files

You can pick that up at my site tomorrow, or perhaps sooner if Tosa puts it up here.

hi daimyo, i am planning an troopstats file editor, perhaps we can agree on several default values for different situations. for me personally i would like to balance the japanese units withe each other and the mongol ones according to the japanese...

the editor will be included in the logfilereader. i promise a fully working version of the logfilereader AND the troopstatseitor after my holiday 15 september.

does that mean it wouldnt work? i am not a crack alttab expert. my Khan only wants to join will it work or not if both sides have the same troopstat file?

[The Daimyo]

THe troopstats.txt file swapper is a great idea. I think we should work on it. As you can see from that other thread there's currently no solution to the Multiplayer dilema. I expect that we will figure something out in the next week or 2.
Let's all work on it and keep each other informed about our progress and testing.

With any luck, or skill, we'll get this working soon.

Meanwhile, I'm going to continue testing out the singleplayer part of the game and how we can modify the units, ai, and anything else - in hopes of getting a more challenging or enjoyable experience out of it for those of us who are "experienced".
