Farewell to Rome MP

[Sp00n]

Hi All,

Sorry to say I traded my Rome game in a few days back as I only bought it really for the multiplayer side and to me its a big letdown Ive never been so excited about a game and so let down by its MP.
Ive tryed to get used to the the continous bugs/appalling forum and new control system but its made me bored after 60 battles I never bored of Shogun in thousands of games or MTW in the way im bored of Rome.

I think over the last 4 or so years ive played mainly Total Wars games online with Shogun and MTW had many great times, played most of you at one time or another, some great battles against many many good oponents ill still never forget the first time playing LinkSan who shot me apart with Muskets inside a few minutes, Magy who shot me apart and tired me out with Cav archers and Amp who rushed me with an all-monk army after many hours of play I eventually got revenge and its allways been fun, had some great tourny battles in CWC with my buddies in Takiyama and in single players tournies against Kocmoc, Tosa, DRBNinja and others,also many games with Paolai my old clanm8 who joined the wolfies ill still be a regular in these forums and my clan forums but for me untill they sort it out I wont be playing Rome anymore online. I will still occasionall play MTW.

Thanks for all the good times and for those who were on the receiving end for putting up with my occasional rants.
Made many friends here over the years some are gone some still here.
Hopefully ill return to online play when its sorted untill then ill just see most of you here.

Hi Sp00n,

I've been knowing you for four years now and it's sad to see you go, however I do understand your reasoning perfectly. RTW has the potential to be a very enjoyable game, let's hope for the best. I do hope to see you back one of these days once CA comes and endorses some of our suggestions *fingers crossed*.

Farewell mate, and good luck wherever you go.

[LittleGrizzly]

a very good player we didn't play often (i can only remember a few games with you) but you were always a highly skilled and honourable player, you will be missed!

hopefully RTW mp can be brought back to a level you consider acceptable but for the moment (i hope) goodbye

Fairwell Sp00n, I may soon follow, I recall the Great battles of Totomy, mayby Ill see you in some other game down the road....

It's sad to see Veterans leaving.

Farewell.

[Wolf__Kyolic]

Sad to hear that Sp00n.

I am afraid there are many other vets who will follow the same path if this game does not get fixed. Kocmoc for example. Or Swoosh. And many others... They are already gone.

[AMP]

same here sp00n i'm not gonna be playing mp unless they sort things out, but i will be playing sp untill i beat it twice. after i beat it twice i can't be bothered to play sp anymore even though the sp campaign is quite nice, but the ai is quite easy to fool and the battle control/blance needs work. after that it gets boring and i need online competition, but the mp needs work and so many old faces are leaving which makes me not even wanna bother with totalwar anymore.

[Orda Khan]

I remember one battle in particular on STW where I was left thinking " How did he do that? "
At least you gave it a try Sp00n ( when I saw the RTW mess I couldn't even be bothered )
As Total War was the only game I played, online or otherwise, I doubt if our paths will cross in the future. It was good to have you as a Clan mate and we will still chat on the forums, here or at Takiyama, no doubt.
Good luck and be well !!
All the best

[Sp00n]

Well Orda maybe ill be back on MTW soon if they add all the mods into one game like Yuuki and CBR mentioned at the Takiyama site, a MTW with all the mods including the Shogun one in would have some appeal to me.

Shame to see you not playing as well Amp had many great battles in the past against you, few players gave me as much competition as you did on Shogun(mainly because I never knew what army was gonna be facing me do recall those nasty Monk rushers early on and the nasty all Yari armies that Magy hated so much) we didnt play as much on MTW but they were always real tough games.

Orda m8 I was lucky a lot of the time.

Sp00n m8........

I wont say goodbye. I am hoping that you will still be around.

I got to know you well as a Takiyama clan member.

Yes...I was one of those on the receiving end of one of your ..rants..
But at least you were man enough to apologies to me after.

Hopefully it wont be too long before this idea of the new mod will be available for us.

Shogun is an option on Sundays.

Take care m8

Seems I feel the same as Amp.....A remote possiblity for a new game is 'Imperial Glory' due out in January, a movie is out along with screens ect.....

Hey Spoon I been hearing RTW mp is so bad I never bought it. Im lonely though here in VI. I wish those of you who dont like RTW mp that much come back and play. I went through MTW pre patch and dont think I want to go through something like that again. Its worse than bootcamp.

[Sp00n]

I will pop in on MTW from time to time Gawain m8, but currently im focused on getting my 2nd Battleship in Eve online and awaiting the free Eve Add-on.

Sp00n

PS I wish Rome was like MTW pre-patch but sadly its way way way way way way way way worse.

[Paolai]

yes, at the moment RTW online is really boring, and till now I played just few games. I cannot "love" RTW like the old games for all these bugs that really bored me. At the moment I am playing my second campaign in SP, but I dont think I will play another one after this.

Goodbye Sp00n, I hope to see you soon online if CA will patch at least some of the most annoying bugs.
