    I voted to camp outside a store...as i've never done anything like that before!

    But really, I've been 'gaming' for 25 years, and still can't think of a single decent Napoleonic game that had battles and campaigns.

    changing one of Churchill's qoutes -

    " ETW is the worst battle/campaign game ever made - apart from all others ever! "

    What other game have we got to look forward to...?

    Just enjoy what we have!



    ps - in all the months i've been playing ETW i've never has a single CTD !!!! What do some of you guys do to your PCs?!

    I'm undecided, but I'm tempted to do the below.

    Yes I will buy it, I still hark back to the days of MTWI but alas they are gone, but TWs always fill those smaller gaps I have now for gaming and I tend to enjoy playing them even if they are buggy at times.

    I will buy it, its only £20-30 which is a night out (actually probably cheaper) anyways.

    I will only buy N:TW on release if these conditions are met:

    1) They release and provide the content that was promised in E:TW and they failed to deliver.
    2) They fix the bugs and the diplomacy in E:TW.
    3) N:TW either retrofits E:TW/Expansion.

    If the first two are done, I will buy it in a Steam deal or similar.

    If one or none are done. I will wait till there is a clear sign N:TW is actually a good game and if so, I might consider it in the future when it is really cheap.

    We Install Microsoft Windows on it.

    I agree with Beskar, I won't be buying it unless the AI is fixed. If they charge Full price game for it, I will laugh and wait till it is really cheap. Full price for it would be a joke surely

    Being honest, E:TW sits there, and I want to play it, however, when I begin to boot it up, the memories of just random DoW's from allies and other things, just come flooding back and I just turn it off, as I just don't want to play that.

    Then there is the fact there is masses of content missing from the game, just like the campaign mode, the developer kits and other things.

    No.

    CA isn't making the games I want to play anymore, so I won't buy them.
    Easy as that. Shame there is no competition though.

    I'll get in on release day, prolly through steam.

    CA must love mugs like me, but I'm addicted, and have been since MTW1

    Should add that I like the challenges of always being at war, and also have had hardly any CTDs so I'm a bit biased!

    That's exactly what happens to me, I'm a step further now and usually don't start it in the first place...

    If it stays that way, there#s no way I'm going to buy NTW, if they fix it, there's a very small chance for ETW, but I skipped Alexander as well and I'm not a big Napoleon fan, so...
