I think he is frustrated like myself by all the whining and complaining ever since the demo came out.

**Meneldil** · 09-05-2004, 09:36

And I must agree with him

**crazyviking03** · 09-05-2004, 10:07

As I. Also, is anyone else hearing music when they view this thread?

I think the demo opened the eyes of many.

RTW is without doubt good, but it has its flaws and some new things to get used to.
Some will probably make it into the final product, some not.

The graphics are only good if you zoom in very close, other than that I have my gripes with the out of scale trees and their ability to hide the army from the user, too. :)

I think the strategic part of RTW will be much better, but the tactical part seems to be much more streamlined - for the good or for the better, the truth is somewhere in the middle.

I am not going to think that things will be completely different in the full version!
(This would be a good n/t line hehe)

yes its a demo, everyone knows that. usually demo's are very important for the future sales figures for a game. in the case of RTW, CA already has 2 class games under its belt to help sell it, but the demo is still very important. lets face it, its not an open-beta which could influence the game, its the only demo which will allow us to see (part of) the game in action before we have to pay to see the full product.

The purpose of a demo is to demonstrate what the final product will be like. Many people were not pleased by the needless changes and questionable design choices evident in the RTW demo.

perhaps CA is just rushing it out the door and will release a mega patch when it's out the door..... maybe...

you know, just to beat that other game...

You might want to look at my post over here https://forums.totalwar.org/vb/showthread.php?t=36046 concerning the seperate tracks the demo and actual game have been running on. You can judge my rationale but it's a strong case that the game will have 3-6 months more development time in it than the demo. The whole thread might be worth your time. If Gold comes tomorrow, that'll lend additional credibility to the sources quoted in that thread. Take a look and keep an open mind. I'm a developer, although not a game developer. The process is still the same.
