Mike Simpson interview in Edge has a bit about MP...

[Tera]

I am hopeful the patch will be bring very positive changes to RTW MP, and hopefully will be make it a very enjoyable experience to everyone.

I hope that as well, but somehow I don’t actually believe the Rome will ever replace the Medieval in my heart, no matter how many patches/expansions.

I just finished playing some incredible MTW:VI games against Buntaro--just 1v1's, but they were incredible.

So far RTW is soooo far away from the tactical depth of MTW:VI that I have to agree with you. It will take something truly magnificent--something we've not seen from CA since the release of Shogun--to change that.

Lets keep our fingers crossed. If they are really allocating 2/7 of the team to MP that is a huge leap forward. I'm guessing that is about 3 times more people than they have ever had working on MP since the beginning of the series.

CA has been able to pull off some amazing magic in the past, and if they are really putting their backs into it--I think they can fix MP RTW and make it shine brighter than MTW. . .

that being said, we've had high hopes in the past so we will just have to wait and see.

Wishful thinking

Says about 20 working on the patch not 20 on MP.
