>>
>>335902903
>Free
Lets get this out of the way; it isnt free.

The cost of the game takes into account all work that takes place prior to its release, that includes Chaos.

Buying it where you get Chaos as a pre order 'bonus' = A fair price
Buying it post release and having to buy Chaos separate = a lose for the consumer, as you pay for Chaos twice.

All this means now is that if you preorder or buy it within the first week you get the more fair price, and if you buy it later you get the unfair one.
>>
>>335904952

Both WHFB and AOS are commercial failures on the tabletop so it seems they did this on purpose. They want to market End Times to gamers while trying to get 10 year olds to buy AOS instead of 40k on tabletop.

Different lords from the same faction get the same starting positions. Considering that we're limited in what kind of settlements we can take, I figure it'd be a nice thing to get more varied starting locations. Also, I'm a lore fag, it'd be like having the ERE in Attila start in Rome since they're both Romans.

Too many factions for CA to put in for $60 so they are splitting it into three titles selling at full price that form the whole game when put together.
CA will release DLC out the ass as well, probably charging $5 for every mercenary band so all in all I'd wager the final full experience will cost well over $200.

Ill wait and see on player reviews. So far it looks like a cosmetic Rome 2 mod with a ton of +5%-5% stat fluff stuffed into the campaign map.

Assuming the base game goes for $15, have to times that by 3 because of the standalones.

Then all the DLC is going to be gods know how much, but Attila had about $80 worth which you would also have to times by at least 3.

So hes right, its going to be pretty expensive, way more than any other TW game.

You had progression on each. Not 'heres one sword dude that looks cool, and another a bit later, have fun with that for the next few hundred years'.

Lets be honest here, unit diversity has always been shit in TW, it wasn't until Attila we even got diverse factions.

They're different, not better. Halberds are counters to Large units, Spears are for Cav.

no, halberdiers counter cav as well. Spearmen are cheaper versions of them. Its like the gothic warband and their upgrades in attila

No it isnt, they are separate units, not upgrades.

They were mostly the same because the games were historical, you could forgive CA for not going too far but still having fun with it.

This was CA's chance to let loose and give us dozens of choices in each line from farmer stickmen, to men-at-arms to gothic ruby zweifuckers.

I guarantee you people will get bored with the selection in TWW.
>>
>>335910671
And one of the first mods for attila was a mod that removed the asnine upgrade system because it changed the functions of units completely in the roster.
>>

They already have everything from farmer stickmen ( bretonnia) to zweihanders as present in warhammer TT

Its Warhammer, not entirely free choice. They are sticking to the books as close as they can with the resources they have.

>>335911057
>They are sticking to the books as close as they can
i.e. they're putting as little effort in as they can
>>
>>335910969
no I am not. The most recent TW game had a system that upgraded units on their own. It was thrown out into the trash because people liked making different armies.

>>335910918
At the end of the day its a paltry line-up from any angle.

Really the game comes off mediocre at best, i dont know why you cunts are defending it this hard.
>>
>>335911210
I can see nids but Tau and Protoss are barely alike apart from the yellow color scheme.
>>
>>335911325
Protoss are based on eldar.

Its better than the med 2 rosters in terms of unit variety and battlefield roles.

It's based on a tabletop game.

But yeah, I'd like to see Free Companies and unique mercenaries like in Rage of the Old Gods mod for M2TW. They could have added a lot more stuff, like archers or any other heavy cavalry besides Reiksguard.

Sure thing historyfag, whatever you say. You just keep being salty then.
>>
>>335912653
it already makes huge changes with the first game, but you will not see it because you absolutely are set in your belief that CA are doing the minimum possible work.

The entire battle system is completely different with a different dynamic since Empire TW.
A magic system that depends upon the battlefield.

I wish CA would pay programmers to not release the buggy shit their new game always is the first couple months rather than give away dollars for internet retards to shill their crap.

This could have been worthwhile. Fantasy is garbage.

Who the fuck buys a modern Total War game within the first month? Takes atleast a year before the game is playable.

What do you expect, Total war hasn't been doing so hot recently and now it's crossed over with a dead franchise.
>>
>>335914101
They haven't cancelled it, they just extended it by a week after release. You will still have to buy the DLC if you didn't buy the game within the first week.

I kinda' like this decision. Not just because it's fucking free DLC, but it shows pride in their product.

Baiting people into pre-ordering with free DLC is something developers do when they don't have much confidence in their game selling well after release. After people have actually played it and word-of-mouth catches up.

The fact that they're giving this DLC out even after the game's released would have been a clever play if they KNEW the game would be shit, but only if they announced the free stuff AFTER release.

Giving away free DLC to players after the game's come out shows that they think people will really like this game and that kinda' confidence spreads among consumers.

This was a clever move if the game's good, and they seem to think it is.
>>
>>335905053
OH MY GOD
>>
>>335920780
I only have a few moments to respond but are seriously taking about broken units in the same context as praising RTW? Have you played Hammer and Anvil Simulator recently? Pikes alone far trump any broken units in M2. And again I implore you to replay RTW because pathfinding is just as fucked in that game as well, especially in city battles. These are blemishes on the entire series people have just accepted because of CA's incompetence. Be fair in your judgment.

And be honest, Medieval 1 is best Total War. Dickass pope, civil war, and Golden Horde were the best combo of late game mechanics they've had.
