How would you change TW: to be more of RTS or return to "old school"?

It is not like there are only two possible ways to go. I don't particularly care about the "Old School", but I definetly don't want TW to become like Warcraft. There are already too many fact click, resource-fest games out there, and after playing S:TW I don't care about them anymore. If TW is going to resemble those, I wouldn't know what games to play anymore.

On the other hand; R:TW brought many improvements over the previous editions, like a more complex strategic map and a better battle-model. However, the low difficulty level (due to bad strategical and tactical balance) wasted their potential and encouraged a fast-paced action style of play as opposed to the more measured, slow style of M:TW/S:TW. In this sense, R:TW was both a step in the right and in the wrong direction. I hope that MII:TW will live up to its potential: the battle model and strategic options are wasted if you hardly need to be aware of them to win the game!

You'd just play STW still!

I voted 'old school', but thats not really what I want. I want progress, in the right direction.

Seriously, you can't compare RTW to Warcraft et al, RTW may have been slightly more RTS like in the battle styles than STW and MTW, but the strategic layer was still one thousand times better than anything in any RTS I've ever played.

And everyone, no game is ever going to be perfect. This forum sometimes reminds me of a bunch of nasty women, who would bitch constantly about a friend if she was out of earshot. CA need our feedback, but some people seem to react to elements of the game not fitting their exact demands like a personal insult.

RTW was and is a great game, with fewer flaws than many other, even more celebrated titles.
