Why is it sad? Do I REALLY have to explain that? People getting angry and heated because we haven't been provided with a full toolkit on release day is not really helping anyone. People were writing off the game, focusing on the negative, and just looking at what they couldn't do RIGHT NOW.
We only had the tools we did for RTW because guys in the community sat down and worked out how to make them. If we have to do it this way again, so be it. It just doesn't happen overnight.
In truth, though, CA will certainly not provide us with help because we slated their game. They are aware of the benefits of a healthy mod community, and I am sure they are aware what we want to do with their new release.
We are promised a pack extractor with the first patch, and I for one am happy to wait for that before I start getting scared this game won't mod. In the meantime, I would rather CA spent their efforts fixing things like the AI's inability to put troops up siege towers properly! I just got my troops slaughtered unit by unit trying to get past 6 of my own men who got trapped on the top platform!
Also...I have moved this to the Mod Questions forum, since it seems more appropriate to there than Tutorials!
