yes.
though my Grimgor has been assasinated 3 times in row without being able to move even once
>>338764668
Getting a hero up requires so much shit in this game
Have to do quests/take settlements to get that early hero to do shit
>>338764754
Yeah the AI heroes have huge levels very fast and assasinate yours right and left.
Best to just embed them in your army
>enemies attacking and recruiting in the same turn while in march stance
is this just a co op thing or is the same that fucking broken on higher difficulties because "so hard xD"
>>338765489
What kind of enemies does that?
>>338765635
my bro is fighting vampires and they constantly attack him multiple times in a turn while in march stance, then ran to another opponents territory AND was suffering attrition as a result and then recruited like 9 units afterwards. all in one movement with one army.
Yes
Chaos is fun as fuck
>>338766084
Vampire factions can use a "raise dead" option anywhere at anytime(except when no dead are available). They can raise more dead if there has been a great battle in the area they are in. Most "raise dead" units are shit tier but they can make a lot of them very fast.
I think this Total War is the fucking hardest by far. The whole game is a get-fucked simulator. Especially if you play any other faction that is not Empire. Enemy Empire is just too good in terms of diversity and will simply destroy you with their OP cavs from pistoleers and knights.
Another thing is that the enemy AI is pretty clever in open battles and will often feign and ruse you. They all love using cav in fights. Too many time have I've fallen for the tricks where they use cavalry to bait and switch you where they get in right close to some of your back up troops to keep them out of battle, which is fucking genius. You either focus on that cav and lose the opportunity in having those troops into battle, because he drags you away, or risk ignoring the harassing cav and getting hammer-and-anviled.
I think I need to replay some previous Total War titles.
Nice they fixed the launch issues and performance issues.
my PC is now running it on ultra with everything maxed.
Feels good man
It's alright.
>>338766084
Vamps have a unique race ability to raise the dead of previous battles, even battles they do not participate in.
>>338766379
I had to switch from Hard to Normal. Shit was ridiculous and not its bearable atleast

>>338766352
>>338766459
didn't know they could raise dead even while marching but that still doesn't explain attacking while marching though. if you've got the game open the army started in templehof, attacked waldenhof and then moved into essen in one go on like turn 4
>>338764460
I'd say so

I'm considering buying it, even though I don't have a PC to play it right now, just so I get the DLC for free.
>>338767240
Doesn't have near the technical issues that Rome 2 did on launch. I did have a ui flickering issue when it first started but changing to borderless windowed seems to have fixed it. Also seems to take an ass long time to load when you first start it up, but it's fine after. Game runs surprisingly well and looks good. If you like warhammer and total war gameplay it's definitely worth checking out.
>>338767602
Why do you not have a PC right now?
>>338767602
Steam summer sale is in a month or two. I bet my ass the discount will make base game + DLC cost more or less the same.
>>338767685
*to play it
My current one has a 6 year old CPU and I'm to overworked right now to find the power for building a new one.
>>338767034
Help your Norscan subjugators out by helping them gain territory and occupying settlements. You have a nice little plot of land for a large amount of time so you can run back and replenish on Norscan troops. Because its either that, or risk letting the enemy come back several turns later to reclaim the area and having to run back to settlements close to the start.
I'm telling you man, it's genius.
>>338767753
I don't think they'd put in on sale that soon.
It's a Total War game
Buy it a couple years after it comes out for 15 bucks with all the DLC.
>>338767753
>>338767602
The DLC is just a pre order incentive to buy the game early.
Give it a month or two and they'll make it free for all or charge £1 for it.
>>338766839
With a 980 I havent gotten any graphical errors or crashes after 5 hours. The only thing ive noticed was some UI flickering, but a reset fixed that.
Downloading as we speak. Will probably play with Mannfred first but Azhag is tempting as well. There's none of my fav heroes from Warhammer so I have to play with that is given.

I am not touching humies till Bretonnia comes out fully
There will be 2 stand-alone expansions which will expand the map and add more factions, or you could just buy those expansions to get only the expanded part and only new factions.
>>338767753
I remember when this happened to Rockstar when they released GTA V close to the summer.
They just increased the price of the game, with some bullshit online coins, so that even with the discount, it turned out to 60 dollars.
>>338767240
It plays more like Medieval 2 than it does everything anything post Empire
>>338768538
that's good, I felt like the battles have lacked oomph since MTW2
>>338767753
Bet again. You might get a 10% discount if you are lucky, tho. $6 is totally worth waiting a month, right?
But yah, nah. Major releases don't get deals four weeks after release
>Build siege towers

This games battles are so satisfying.
>>338768815
Mass assault against a narrow section of the wall. If playing as Vamps, use zombies as literal meat shields.
>>338768706
No more matched combat animations
They got rid if that
Now its good ol units flailing at each other
>>338768815

Has anyone experienced enough battles to make a general comment about whether they're over in 5 minutes or whether they last a decent length
>>338769275
or you know, keep your infantry line on guard mode so they don't run after routing units and fuck your line of defense
>>338769819
Depends on the size of the battle and how good you are.
>>338769819
go watch streams nigger, it seems like theyre over in 5 minutes like every total war in the past 5 years
>>338769819
Combat is alot slower and methodical, no more one rear cav charge and a unit disintegrates instantly like Attila. You will shift your lines multiple times during a battle as well as microing your special abilities
>>338768942
Fucking Empire knights... you making me so maddd!!!

I hear siege maps are reused to some degree, do different factions have unique siege maps? Do capital cities have their own siege maps?
I don't think I could stand playing the same maps over and over again, especially considering how awful total war sieges tend to be

That's a big guy.
You can play the campaign co-op with a friend?!
Any of you guys found a way to remap the camera tilt button to anything other than the middle mouse button?
it's a piece of shit. nearly all the fucking factions play the same. the empire building manages to be more bland than rome 2. nearly every fucking ork plays the same with some variation in stats. skellies suffer from fatigue and are afraid of large opponents.
absolute wasted potential.
>>338771725
Yeah. If your friend is spectating the battle, you can give them command of some of your troops, so they can help you out. It's a pretty nifty feature.
How are sieges in this game?
My favorite map/battle type was defending my castles in fall of the samurai.
Are they at least as fun here?
Is the game working? I just downloaded and can't play because "The server is not reachable, check your internet connection". Steam is working. Battle.net is working. 4chan is working. What's going on?
will i enjoy this if i loved medieval 2 and the first rome but hated everything they did since warscape?
do the charges look powerful now? do the fights have weight or are the units still morphing into each other?

You need to raid it. As in march in a raiding stance in the province.
>>338771986

>Raid this!
>Raze it

>>338771986
The engine feels like they upgraded from medieval 2 instead of the one they have used since Empire
Is there actually combat in this game or just simulated combat on the strategy map? I've watched a few twitch streams but never actually saw combat.
>>338772223
when I raze a settlement I get 'horde growth +4' which lasts one turn.
What is this?

Never seen the AI in a TW game actually use tactics before.
>>338771986
attila is the best game for the physics of a charge
>>338771869
They are more fun because they are bigger and more focused fights.
Although you can only siege cities, not towns. Town fights take place on a normal battlefield with no buildings.
... I liked Empire.
>>338773087
But it was horribly OP to the point where everyone would bring 6 cav units to every multiplayer battle
>>338772518
actual combat as in all total war games
you engage an enemy army on the campaign map and choose to autoresolve or take the field and control your units.
>>338764460
According to the last thread and /vg/, offical board and reddit, its seems to be an overpriced Total War Addon.
That means it has only 4 races, doesn't run very well and will have tons of DLCs.
>>338771792
Well that just all lies.
All factions play completely different.
Dwarves Heavy line and artillery, no cav or fast units.
Orcs lots of cheap expendable units, fast weak units and slow strong units mixed with monsters.
Vampires no range at all, weak low tier infantry but cheap to mass. Lots of flying monstrous units and powerfull magic
Empire jack of all trades, good cav decent infantry and artillery.
>>338771792
This is bait right?
Even the way each faction plays on the campaign map feels different.
Dwarves are OP as fuck, getting my Orky dick kicked in by their nigh invincible units while trying to take out the other Ork factions. Seems like they've improved the AI in this game quite a bit though which is surprising since I didn't think CA ever had that in them.
>>338773150
Are there monster multi-tiered citadels that need scaling?
Towers?
Upgradeable fortifications?
>>338772740
I've noticed they adapt. I got into a back and forth siege war with greenskins. They eventually figured out I was just using one of the Death spells on their ranged infantry that they kept on wall. They placed less and less up there until they just kept them off the wall so they could open fire when my skellies got up there.
After I realized they got smart I just razed the city. Fuck that noise.
>>338772648
thanks cunt
>>338774026
Siege maps are smaller and like Medieval 2 again, with only a small section of wall and city to fight in/over, instead of having whole cities and forts like the past 5 TW games.
Fightin' an Lootin'
I never played a total war game, but I think I might have tried a demo of one that came on a cd years ago. I remember the units were really awkward to control and would constantly do stuff I didn't want them to if I didn't babysit them. is this game like that?
How does this game run on toasters, I need to use my piece of shit laptop for 2 more months before I go back to my rig.
>>338774228
How is the siege map variety?
Are capital cities more elaborate than the rest?
>>338774317
I have a GTX 760, and I can run this game on high settings and have a pretty decent FPS.

Running fine on a mix of high and ultra on my 6 year old PC (GTX 480, 6gb RAM, i7-970). Load times into battles take a few minutes sometimes, and the campaign map has some framerate problems ocassionally but otherwise it seems to be running well.

Because they're the backbone of the Ork forces and since they have the spears it wouldn't do for them to break and flee immediately.
not my kind of game. got it refunded. I might try it again if it becomes cracked
>>338771869
They mostly suck. You just defend a single section of the wall, with no secondary walls. Pretty straight forward and smaller towns don't even get a siege, the garrison just fights in the field like you sallied out.

Depends on difficulty, size of forces involved, and player skill.
Watching a streamer right meow, he's okay at the game, playing with Chaos (1 army only four the time being) and he takes like 5-15 minutes for each engagement. Not including outliers like his entire 20 unit army vs a lord and 2 basic units or the battles where he spends 5+ minutes mopping up routing forces.

>All in all, Total War: WARHAMMER suffers from major CPU optimization issues. Also, forget a 60fps experience in this particular game during very demanding scenarios. The only way to overcome the game’s optimization issues is by using a CPU that offers better ‘per core’ performance. So yes, newer CPUs will be able to handle better Total War: WARHAMMER, but that’s due to their better ‘per core’ performance, and not because the game actually uses all the available CPU cores/threads.
>While Creative Assembly claimed that Total War: WARHAMMER takes “better advantage of multicore CPUs, balancing the load across the cores so that no single core is maxed out and limiting framerates while others sit idle,” that’s exactly what we’ve experienced. Our performance was limited because one (or in other situations two) cores were maxed out. So we are really puzzled why Creative Assembly lied about it.

That doesn't fucking matter though. Warcraft lore makes sense. It has a logical progression with the story and technology i.e. steam tanks. Warhammers lore is all over the place and has technology that shouldn't be there (steam tanks ripped from WoW) plus more than one race.
I'm 20 hours in. Game is fun. I have played it all day. Is it me or is it harder? I had to restart a campaign once.

>>animation is 9gag tier
Since when is 9gag relevant? I guess that on Reddit and /b/ it still is, that only goes to show how low-tier you are
>>It's not on console
You wanted a strategy game on a console? How retarded are you? Or are you just an underaged summerfag?
>>338781765
Poor bait, take this pity (You) and invest it in a less shitty sense of humor.
>>338781367
>>338781394
It's just amazing how much of a literal fucking copy Warcraft Orcs are to Warhammer Greenskins. Like, fucking wow.
>>338764460
Game is fantastic.
>playing as dwarves
>by turn 20 a waaagh sends three full doom stacks to one of my cities
This fucking game
>>338781882
in one day? that seems like a pretty good number.
>>338782057
It's pretty clear cut to me. Are you blind? Or are you just so indoctrinated by Reddit that you can't tell valid critique from shitposting (your posts).

Dude stop using Reddit as an insult it's embarassing.
>Warcraft was going to be a warhammer game in the first place, Games Workshop pulled out of the contract or some shit and Blizzard made a game out of the scraps
But Blizzard objectively made an objectively better game than GW ever could and ever will. Look at the success of Warcraft compared to Warhammer.
>Since when is 9gag relevant? I guess that on Reddit and /b/ it still is, that only goes to show how low-tier you are
Because shitposters like you constantly bring it up.
>>>It's not on console
>You wanted a strategy game on a console? How retarded are you? Or are you just an underaged summerfag?
99% of people have consoles which are objectively superior to PC because of controllers. CA is missing out by not making this a console game exclusively.
>>338782265
At least they are actually orcs and not some muh green human barbino niggers that dindu nuffin.
>>338765489
it's artificial difficulty because CA can't code AI
>>338782556
Holy shit, the summerfaggotry is real
Go to sleep, Johnny
>>338778683
they usually do that if they have no cities left

>>338780963
Stay away. Combat AI in TWW has gotten a buff and campaign map is hard as balls with no easy mode faction.
>>338783105
My dwarf campaign has been disgustingly easy so far. Greenskins getting picked apart by superior positioning and quarrelers up the ass
>>338781765
>Warcraft lore makes sense. It has a logical progression with the story and technology i.e. steam tanks.
Explain the Draenei space ships.

Oh, I'm so sorry I hurt your feelings... I should make you welcome to this site!
First off, do you see that big [X] in the corner of the screen? Click it and you'll win all arguments!
>>338783105
the dwarfs are on easy. I've been playing as the Chaos Army which is the only one on hard and it's pretty damn hard. I don't think this is a good way to start the game.
>>338782987
That's not how you link a board, summerfag, it's like this

And that's where you belong

Crack when?

Haha good one I'm laughing.

Ugh you redditors are annoying

FUCKING REDDITORS GET OFF MY FUCKING BOARD

That being said is fun so far. Mostly psyched that it works fine on my rig and it's definitely harder than previous games. Was too busy expanding west against marienburg then Vamp cunts came outta nowhere and pushed my shit in so gave up on that campaign. Maybe Dwarfs for defensive play and learn the game?
Need to actually learn the lore now.
>>338783705

There's just no hiding it fag
And here's a (you)

>>338783990
Lorefag here. Ask away any questions.
>>338784175
Is this in the 40k universe? Are these the same Orks? Why is it Warhammwr then?
Should I go Empire or VC on my first playthrough?
>>338784278
Warhammer*
Fuck my shitty hands
the animation for destroying walls in literally a puff of smoke and the entire section of the wall disappears with no debris left.
Add that to ridiculously small cities, and the sieges are really disappointing
>>338784534
Yeah... I am pirating this one.
Sorry.
>>338784278
1) Yes and no. The chaos gods are the same from the 40k setting, but the warhammer world is distinctly separate for the most part. In earlier editions, Chaos warriors/demons could call on chaos marines, and Elves, Eldar. In the end times, the recent and last supplement series, Skaven may have contacted Eldar and Elves may have worked with grey knights from 40k.
2) No.
3) Warhammer fantasy was the original warhammer setting and was named due to Sigmars weapon I think.
These captchas suck
>>338784695
No you aren't.
I'm enjoying it quite alot but does anyone else feel like it's a bit too easy? I'm on turn 40 as the empire and I already own almost 50% of the empire thanks to confederations.
>>338784883
??
I am not giving my money to cucks.
>>338784695
also no special killing animations, and only like two death animations for each unit
>>338784926
>Pirating Denuvo
>>338784926
You aren't pirating it, sorry.
>>338784278
For a while (they stopped) the were in the habit of giving niggling hints that Warhammer Fantasy was just one world isolated by a warpstorm, or that all of w40k was a universe in a glass jar on a wizard's desk in whfb.
They're basically distinct, aside from chaos daemons though.
>play chaos
>have a decent start with a few lucky breaks
>get a couple of allied tribes on my side
>unawakened norscans start hitting back against allied tribes and retaking razed settlements
>kislev starts sending stacks up north
>two of my allied tribes decide this would be a great time to go to war with each other
I think I'm going to put this campaign on the backburner.
>>338785015
>>338784987
>le you are not pirating denuvo meme all over again
Yeah, same thing was said with all of those games that got cucked on a while ago.
Same thing will happen with this one. Who cares really.
>>338785158
chaoskeks
On another note dae have problems with total war games on steam still saying theyre running after exiting? Then I can't exit steam until it closes but it wont let me.
>>338780708
i wouldnt give a shit because im not a poorfag. I got the refund cause its easy to do. fuck yourself
>>338784804
So it's in the same Multiverse as 40k, but not the same universe? Gotcha
>>338774295
Of course, you're more of a general trying to direct them with orders instead of the instant micro you see in Starcraft.
>>338785397
One can basically say that yeah. The warp is weird and doesn't really follow space/time. IE: Nurgle was created in 40k around the time of the black death. but once Nurgle existed, he had always existed before then, and since.
>>338785236
Sorry but no, you aren't pirating this game.
>>338785518
I think the Warp is like Xen in Half Life, or Hell in the new Doom, a dimension between dimensions, the one that connecta them. But I'm not big into Warhammer lore, so I might be completely wrong
>>338764460
better buy it quick for that day 1 dlc, goyim
>>338766379
This one makes you take some losses, unless you're dorfs you'll never not get fucked a bit.
It's literally anarchy for everybody and the dorfs just get to sit it out.
>>338782478
Nope. Rome 2 had more and that game wasn't nearly as hyped.
>>338785370
>fuck yourself
Already did pal. Checkmate.
>>338785951
touche
>>338785852
Rome 2 was massively hyped with record pre-orders whereas this one has heavy dislikes on all youtube videos in protest of the Day 1 DLC issues which is why pre-orders have been so low....
>>338785638
Ok champ.
Just like dragon age right?
>>338773362
>>338785852
>a game about Romans not hyped
You're retarded and probably underage. Rome and Medieval are the best selling games in the franchise for obvious reasons. Compared to literally any other theme it's obvious Warhammer was a success. Beyond this, something like Warhammer is a bit more niche than historical settings that encompass the middle ages and classical antiquity.
This should be obvious, but I had to spell it out for underage retards
