Well i just installed my game and went to MP first!
I played a lagless 1v1 as the Venetians vs the French.
It was awesome!! So much like the first MTW.
We had an Xbow shootout... something im sure many vets arent too fond of, but it was so awesome to actually be in the middle of a pav shootout like old times.
He had like 2 xbows and 6 archer units, 4 adventuriers and 2 peasant[archers]. I had 3 Pavise Xbows.... They held their own against all of his missiles and I could tell it was pissing him off.
Then I notices some of his knights were in range, and that did it. (BTW, we both had 5 cav, and the rest swords and spears - very similar armies besides the archer differences)
He moved his adventuriers in to counter - shoot some of my infantry and I pushed forward...
This is where is gets good.
The game was Slow enough that I actually had time to manuever, flank, counter-flank, and squeeze into gaps in his line.
I simply outplayed him. There was no spam of one unit, no blobbing, no mass attack... it was amazingly similar to mtw.
If they can get the lag out of the bigger battles, i very much think there could be a resurgence of the TW community we knew in Shogun and MTW.
Its def not perfect, but so much betterthan rome or BI.
Great job CA, on at least getting the mechanics back to a similar level as the first two titles.
Sorry for the grammer and other writing mistakes, i want to get back to the game! Woo hoo.... !
