Interesting Activision Statement

Another "more accessible" mess to clean up...So why not just mod it right?

I cringed when I read that.

Yeah, I believe we can mod this to be more realistic. I hope so.

Why, however, couldn't they have included a "fun" mode and a "realism" mode? How would this make it any less accessable for new users?

What a bunch of crap.

I threw up in my mouth when I read that.

That made my night.

Too bad its true though...

Oddly enough, I don't believe this to be the case.

But then I only worked on the game.

If terrain and fatigue have little effect doesn't that mean tactics suddenly become very limited? Suddenly having the high ground means nothing anymore as your supermen fight the same going uphill as they do on the plains...

Looks like troops in RTW are like the Duracell Bunny, they keep on going on and on, and on...

Anyway I hope the Captain is right and it is not the case, because if it is then the essence of TW (realistic battles with terrain and fatigue having a major impact on tactics) has gone.
