    Perhaps.

    I'll give it a long try and then see whether it is worth staying or not.

    Its not like I am going to spend much time on SP for sure.

    I won't be able to play it though until early december. Guess that gives them hopefully enough time to release the first patch.

    MP battles are like Custom battles Dan.06, only your opponent/s are HI not AI. MP attraction depends on the quality of the server and lobby, which is why nobody bothered with Rome or BI. With a smooth server like MTW and VI and a lobby of STW standard, MP would be enjoyable providing the balance is better than awful mess of RTW

    Very much Correct Orda. One Reson alot of "Old" players left RTW, and some even left TW for good, was because there was to many people using high money and greece and such, Bugs, To many Ploblems with GS and such. if things get fix in MTW2, mabye it will change for the better..

    I am surprised that no one mentions NTW2. If I may say so it is a BLOODY good game.

    And yes you have quality opponents.

    Hah. I dont want to sound too bad. NTW2 looks very good and the designers did really put lots of work in it which is showing clearly in the game. Unfortunately, it still suffers from the same problems RTW does, which are all related to the battle engine. And cannot be modded away.

    One major flaw is that it is completely irrelevant whether a shooting unit is deployed thinly or deeply for shooting effectiveness. In fact deploying in depth actually makes them much more effective shooters since they'll occupy less room so you can have more units on a smaller front... So I really rather play NTW 1 instead. On the other hand I really hope translating NTW 2 to M2TW would be a relative easy thing to do.

    I`ll probably dip my feet in the mp from time to time for the first few months. The sp side of the totalwar games has always been my favourite aspect. Once Ive finished a few campaigns i`ll prob jump online and get trained by my clanmates, it saves having to figure out everything myself :)

    I'll definitely give M2TW MP a try, let's say for a month or two. Then we shall see if it worth raising the clans :)

    depends...

    i'm more optimistic about the demo than rome's...

    but i'll still need to wait and see some reactions of how the lobby is, and how well the game actually functions.

    i think i need a new graphics card, after the lag i got in the demo, so it'd be a bigger upgrade to play than i want or can afford.

    Same...sort of. I find MP for fun over a longer period of time, I like 1, maybe two campaigns but then get bored quick of them.

    But ye, like Wish, I'll play MP after a campaign or two

    I doubt I'll be playing any standard MP battles, but a couple of my friends and I are very interested in playing against each other in some of the historical battles the game is supposed to include. My old roommate in particular is eager to lock horns with me in some of the French-English and English-Scottish battles that will hopefully be included. I'm also looking forward to engaging my pals in some of the Crusader battles, although I have to hear which ones will be in the game.

    Didn't have the opportunity to try MP with RTW. So i guess with broadband internet and a good video card i'll probably give it a try with MTW2.

    I'm playing the demo without using "pause" these days in order to get more familiar with MP.

    What exactly is this Elite Force guild? Never heard of it.

    As for guild wars, i played it twice. The graphics are nice but it remains a MMORPG, meaning not really RP but more or less another disguised Hack&Slash.

    If u are interested with good roleplaying experience, buy NWN2. It will surely provide more intensive roleplay immersion than any MMO on the market.

    My dream would be to have a game that combines CA rts/turnbased strategy game engine with NWN roleplaying engine. This game would be awesome. Like u roleplay your general, have it command huge armies on the field and manage a realm.

    And if possible, in Westeros, from A song of Ice and Fire saga. Ah dreams...

    Back on TOPIC: LadyAnn, dress up with your lovely Joan of Arc suit and meet us on the field. Come on, don't be shy

    Maybe a mistake, vinsitor may believe your Elite of Imperator, or another Elite. Elite Force is a very old german clan in TW. I don't know if they play RTW at all.
    They also play Guild War and were ranked in the 100...
