That's too much of a bold prediction for my tastes LOL.
It's too early to make an educated guess, so I'll go with a gut feeling and say it won't be great but it also won't be terrible.![]()

My prediction is that the European factions are going to get boring after a few campaigns due to their similarity and melee will be slimmed quite a bit or remain roughly the same.
Bows, crossbows, swords, spears, halberds, pikes, javelins, shields, chariots, elephants are so much for fascinating than guns.
There's something about people in striped trousers wielding swords and spears.
My prediction is that this game will be more fun than MTW2, and that I will most certainly buy it! (I didn't buy MTW2 after seeing that it was little different from RTW and also didn't have as large modding community as RTW). As long as the core features and AI of the battle map mode are the focus of the developers, it can't really fail... Also, 18th century naval combat hasn't been subject to too many games so it will probably be enough for many hours of great gaming as long as the naval combat AI is decent.

I take my prediction back, Shogun was the greatest game ever!!! But I'm sure this one will allow me to ignore my wife and chidlren for hours, days, weeks, and possibly months like previous titles.![]()

I think that's a safe bet :-)
I've already comlained about potential historical inaccuracies.![]()
My prediction: the devs will incorporate exploding cannons and muskets and go way overboard. Guns will be exploding like its the fourth of july. It will have to be modded.

I just found out about Empire: Total War a few seconds ago. I must say that I am very pleased at the turn CA have decided to make.
I'm looking forward to it greatly.
I support Israel
I garentee if there is a sheild bug, the African tribes and India wont stand a chance against Europian Rifles
The only bug there would be if they had any effect whatsoever. In fact they should give people in armour penalty points for turning up wearing all that rubbish - just on principle.Originally Posted by Abokasee
Other predictions:
- Wingeing about historical inaccuracy - as already pointed out
My side aren't strong enough
Uniforms are wrong
Mustaches are wrong (check out the TWC)
There should be more armour/swords/spears/axes/elephants/dragons/elves/orcs/ninjas/samurai/fantasy/lala![]()
- My country isn't in it/playable
Lord help us if Poland isn't a playable faction!
- I will buy
- It will be better than Shogun - when I take my rose-tinted specs off

I predict that this game will be exactly half as good as it is hyped up to be.
Tallyho lads, rape the houses and burn the women! Leave not a single potted plant alive! Full speed ahead and damn the cheesemongers!

I predict it will come with fewer bugs than Windows Vista.

I predict that Mrs Devastatin will take a horrible and painful revenge for being ignored while Dave plays Empire:TW.
I predict a riot

My grandad got Vista soon after it came out for his laptop, this is bad, why?
He just given up technophobia of him using computers.
Vista is confusing, and he is at a state were he struggle to understand where he is.
Its new, I've never used a vista, dads never, no one in are families used vista.

Back to topic
I predict that:
Someone will moan about something.

Agreed.Someone will moan about something.
Someone will moan about someone reporting bugs, glitches, lack of patching, etc![]()
give it a shot....
I predict that The Lordz will be too far into development of their new game to fix CA's mistakes :)
I'm Batman!
I predict that we'll overhype the game by ourselves, without help from CA. When the game is released, we'll be disappointed, mostly because we expected a perfect, bug-free, historically accurate game with ultimate gameplay, and we'll ***** about it without end, completely overlooking the fact that it really is a damn good game.
I predict that the AI will not be good enough to beat me, even at the hardest settings.
I predict the game magazines will give it top marks and hail it as the biggest and best tw ever !!!!11111 zomg thus it will be sucessful at least commercially![]()
Judging by the fiasko that M2TW has become I am predicting that ETW is going to defy the laws of physics by sucking and blowing at the same time. CA is sailing into a disaster![]()

Well, wizards do tend to be a bunch of guys walking around wearing dresses. That's enough to frighten me right there.
