JoJoSan, can you forgive me?
A month has passed, a petition has been handed to CA and no response. I guess it's a case of suspicions confirmed.
The Total War scene was fun while it lasted and there are a lot of warm, decent people in our community. Thanks all for a couple of years of great fun

there was a response... no fixes yet, but they thanked us and said they'd work on it.

While I would be the first to praise MTW for the excellent simplicity of its commands, unfortunately the imbalances found from faction to faction, unit to unit spoiled the experience for me. The Muslim factions are weaker than the Europeans. Yes it is possible to win with Muslims but I would argue that one needs to be either an excellent player or at least a better player than ones opponent. CWC made this glaringly obvious and because the cav/sword army became the norm and later the rush armies, only exasurbated this issue.Originally Posted by voigtkampf
It would have been nice to see Euro and Muslim spears both with equal stats, Euro and Muslim cav both with equal stats, Euro and Muslim ranged both with equal stats etc, etc.
MTW and MTW/VI deteriorated when stat compare tools were released because everyone wants a winning army right? Well I was happy enough with experimental armies, fun armies. Within no time the 'usual' armies were fielded over and over and quite honestly, the game became tedious. The games all became like the 'competitive' games of STW....must win... and fun games became rare indeed.
Admitted, there were some faction v faction battles that were quite enjoyable but in general, unless the game was modded, it was a case of going through the motions for me.
CA saying 'thanks' and 'we'll look into this' doesn't exactly make me over optimistic, let's face it they should never have made such a terrible mess in the first place IMO. STW, STW/MI, MTW, MTW/VI....... how much practise do they need? And further, how long must we be patient and wait for a fix that may ( or may not ) help? We all coughed up the cash, we all love the game ( or at least the principle of the game ) yet the MP side keeps getting progressively worse. Anyone who doubts this need only compare the STW lobby with RTW. Coupled to this is the fact that the players have mostly left anyway....
Krast summed things up perfectly in his post in the Sword Dojo

My first love was STW and played thru to now. Yes there have been many fine folks online. Have appreciated the decorum and friendship. There was something of a sense of Honor in those days. These days there are too many trolls wearing the robes of royalty. `When` I can get into RTW MP and `if` I can get into a game there is no one hardly saying `good-game`. There is very little communication between allies. There is no planning and no co-ordination. Tonight while waiting for my third game the lobby broke into a long discourse of profanity. There is no longer Honor and no...shibumi...refinement.
I am going back to STW and Japanese graphics. Would like to see STW redone but on a larger scale. Take the map and increase the size and break the provinces into sub-provinces. Add a ton of detail and some other things. This old Ronin is going back up into the mountains for awhile.

Indeed, very few high valor opponents on R:TW these days. I always pay my respects, wish the opponent a good game, fun, strength and honor, and I always thank for the game no matter how rushed, stupid or otherwise lacking my opponent/the game itself was.
The opponents mostly don’t sound a word or simply say “lol”. Gah.![]()
I imagined it would be different, according to the high amount of high valor members on these boardsbut I guess they are all still playing Medieval.
I’m not giving up though.
The final version of the MTW:Shogun mod will be released by the Mizus here very shortly and then, Dimeolas, you will have much of what you've asked for.

We got in two 1v1 and three 2v2 test battles last night with the STWmod, and it's looking good. We noticed a couple of things that need adjusting, and I'll make those changes tonight. I want to release this stat as soon as possible, but I don't want to release it with known problems.
