EB- Expectation compared with results.

Because of the performance issues on the battlemap and the issue with the long loading times I haven't been playing much (at all), so it wouldn't be fair to give a vote until these issues are resolved.

I think EB is a fantastic mod. Playing one faction alone will not give you the full picture either. Games in the East are different than Western ones.

I don't mind the lack of descriptions, the CTD's, or the peasent placeholders.

My problem with EB is one that is inherrent with RTW MODS. RTR and EB both suffer from extreme waiting periods while the AI makes it's moves. This is especially apparent in the mid to late game where the time it takes is over 3 mintutes.

It's not my computer, Vanilla never did this. I think it has to do with the limitations CA has put on Modders. The scripts and whatnot can never be as efficient as they should be.

I hope I'm wrong though. That wait is a real killer.

wait=killer. Yep. It is a top priority in the dungeons below. Our midgets are hard at work inside the game tearing up the doo-dads and knicker-knackers.

So far we have found a heap of crumbs and bottlecaps, $4.53 in U.S. change (mostly pennies), two old combs, a remote control from a Betamax we had in 1986, and a mummified hamster with a really really old piece of cheese pizza next to it.

I just found a bunch of floorboards, dozens of them. Should I bring them up for examination? I'll need a crowbar.
