3D units and previews

[icek]

How tragic, I mean when playing Call of Duty some people could think all german soldiers were evil cannonfodder monkeys, I'm appalled, I will stop eating until they call all the games back and change that.
Besides that, by calling the others crossed spiders you're not really helping your case.

its not my case i care not about this and im not here to make flames about this because its meanless and closed already. ca gave already their answer. i love when germans speak about ww2, i remember when i was near munchen, some guy played in german-language cod2 as german speaking american and voved to kill germans lol. About crossed spiders, or trestles, we call that teutonic knights as we call germans Niemcy - in english "mute guys" because they were always diplomatically immune.

Furious mental,
its not hate towards eastern nations but towards poland. in add-on danes will get 3 new units, egiptian 8, turkish 3, bizantium at least 2, poland 0 and even we lost some. so the question is why we are playable in teutonic camp, let us be like hre - ai controlled only if we are just for filling holes.

Ok then.

Well, I don't identify myself with WW2 germans either, probably because we always learn in school how evil most of them were.

That's fine with me, I wasn't offended or anything, but I don't refer to polish people as car thieves either even though there are germans who call you that.

Well, who has the complete unit charts for Kingdoms? They promised more than 100 new units so I would hope that Poland also gets some new ones.
apart from that Poland is a nice faction in the original game already and I don't see why Australians would hate the Polish? We're drifting into Backroom territory here, where the topic of polish people constantly feeling that all the world hates them, has been discussed before. And we shouldn't discuss that here. and no, I don't hate you. Just wait until the expansion is out, they haven't shown a lot of Poland so far but that doesn't mean that Poland won't get anything new.

no you dont understand, its not a way we call to make you angry like we do for french to call then frogeaters. we just call you Niemiec because its our language. if you dont belive me here is proof http://wiadomosci.wp.pl/kat,1356,wid...wiadomosc.html third word in title.

Lusted already stated this on twcenter. no new units for poland. and the official statement of ca is that its too late to change anything.

Well, Germans don't call Polish car thieves to offend them but because they believe that they do actually steal cars. So I think I got your point.

Ok, I don't read twc, but to some extent I feared that most of those 100 units would be spent on the new factions. Now I really wonder what the new campaigns will be like and what will be done to the big campaign. and what about Russia? Will they get new units?

[icek]

I dont know anything about Russia, but who knows if even danes got new units.
Edit: Also the sole map will be weird. No Thorn city, very important to Order and later to Hanza.

[Mad Mac]

Saying the Danes get new units is a bit of a stretch. CA created a playable Norway faction for the Brittania Campaign, and the Danes in the Teutonic campaign will be able to unlock a "team-up" event that gives them access to 3 of Norways units. (One of which is a greatsword weilder, apparently)

As for the Poland thing, I think it's over the top. Mostly because the complaining always seems to devolve into nationalist ranting about how uber Poland was historically, and griping that Poland is a "super-weak" faction in game when they are actually very good.

I do think it's disappointing that we don't get improvements to the Grand Campaign though. I think any Mod that manages to port over most of the Kingdoms stuff into the Grand Campaign is going to be mega-popular.

[imnothere]

HMM, pls note that while most are historically accurate, it is a game, intend for entertainment and not education.

if English's longbowmen were taken away and got given some donkies for their cavalry - i understood that they will be upset. i know I will, even if i am not english.

however, once CA finished the game, it isnt neccessary to protest. if the game producer are not up to our expectation - the gamers can always produce their own MOD.

icek, i think the polish Mod team is calling out your name!

[Didz]

Well I must admit I have some sympathy for the case put by the Polish petition. Being English I would be severely upset if the English battle order had not included Longbowmen or if they had got the English lions round the wrong way. I'm inclined to agree with the suggestion made in the petition that these errors are evidence of a lack of historical research on the part of CA, but I would have thought that having been informed they would have taken steps to correct the ommissions and errors, or at least double check their sources.
