What are the unit size caps like in this game? Roughly how many troops does a maximum size battle field?
>>
>>338150045
Probably even less than Atilla until mods fixed it.

To be fair, the game is most likely going to run like shit on launch anyway and you have to set the unit sizes to minimum. Their recommended specs are ridiculously high to play the game on medium on 35 fps.
>>
>>338150045
They said they always play with unit size set on "large" in their videos. Ultra is the highest.
>>
>>338150045
just wait for the mods to come out you faggot.
>>
>>338150150
All I've ever wanted from TW games are massive armies where the engine itself didn't start to buckle when I go in and edit unit sizes myself. 3000 vs 3000 troops is literally nothing in almost all eras of people fighting people, I'm not saying I want ancient Scythian armies of 50 thousand men but ffs I want at least 10.
>>
>>338149871
No Gorbad no orkin'

So vampire cunts have no ranged units and their morale system means that if the general dies the entire army disintegrates into dust, I'm seeing a lot of potential for airborne shenanigans of zerging the general.

>>338150396
Medieval with the Warhammer mod is probably your best bet. I'm going to suspect that it's probably even better than Total Warhammer. The only issue with the mod is that the regular total war AI cheats like crazy to make the game unfun.

Seriously though, how does a russian basement dweller in 2 months make a shitload of units for all races and with total warhammer you're getting like 12 units per race.

Oh don't worry you'll be able to purchase new units for a low cost of 2.99, I'm guessing this will have at least 5-10 DLC.
>>
>>338151664
I don't even care if they sell 30 units each for 2.99 as DLC, at least that's an option. But they always end up making 4 core units that are slightly reskinned everytime with improved gear, it's fucking dumb.
>>
>>338151639

60 euros is asking for too much specially when it comes out the same day as overwatch. I hope I can play it next month.
>>
>>338152025
why not buy it for 48 euros off of GMG then?
>>
>>338151639
The problem is that the people who were hyped for DOOM would buy it anyway and the people who were mildly interested in it but haven't decided yet (like me) and are turned off by the initial price tag would've pirated it to see how it runs and if it's any fun, then buy it later. If you can't pirate it or don't have a demo, I'm totally uninterested in the final product. This is especially important with Total Warhammer, CA is notorious for making games that are sheer unplayable on any decent machines on release and this is just putting me off enough that I might never buy or play it, unless it drops into a range of like $30 on a sale.
>>

>I'm really hope they optimize this game

It isn't. To play warhammer on high with at least 60 fps at some (not considering frame drops) in a 1 vs 1 (1 unit consisting of 20 soldiers), you the following;

Operating System: Windows 7/8.1/10 64Bit
Processor: Intel® Core™ i7-4790K 4.0 GHz
RAM: 8 GB
Hard Drive: 35 GB
Video Card: (DirectX 11) AMD Fury X or Nvidia GTX 980 @1080P

This shit is unoptimized like usual.

>>338148332
It's what everyone will call it anyway.

>>338150787
Keep in mind that vamps are ridiculously powerful in their own right. Their whole concept is a bunch of useless chaff zombies and skellies holding the front, while the elite units (like vampires, terrorgeists, etc.) curbstomp the key enemy units. I absolutely agree that there will be effective ways to "assassinate" vampires, but it's not gonna be that easy.

Check out this video, where the bats + death magic totally murder the enemy's elite pegasi strike force.

Everytime they talk about optimization they always highlight the fact that the one CPU thread did all the work and this time it's more spread out and the engine will utilize the game more.

have high hopes anon. The gameplay footage they have been showing especially the live streams were 60fps

>This shit is unoptimized like usual.

Go read the dev post on steam forums about their progress on the engine.
>>
>>338153306
I don't even understand how developers have regressed so much in threading and multi core usage. When the first commercial dual core came out developers were all over that shit and nearly perfected it. Then some time Quad Cores came out and everyone was like 'meh' and didn't innovate on their own anymore. Now games are programmed for single cores with absolutely no threading on their own aside from seperating graphic calls with internal calls, they just keep using the AMD/Intel utility that does a half assed job of splitting the process in multiple parts.
>>
>>338153468

To be fair, the raw graphics themselves look worse than what we had in Shogun 2 and Rome 2 in terms of textures and unit variety. I swear the human soldier models look less detailed and there's less variation in outfits and such.

I'm positive we'll get wood elves and Bretonnia as playable factions next DLC batch. It just makes sense.

Why?
>>
>>338155076
You get that if you buy it week 1.

No need to pre-order.

>>338155285
Are you retarded?

Crumbling means they fall apart and die. Which happens if they move too far away from their leader or if their leader dies.
That's pretty fucking different from morale.
>>
>>338155318
See
>>338153974

They're not using a 780Ti at all. If you watch console games being played at E3, do you honestly also believe they run on consoles to demo them? It's called marketing
>>
>>338155285
Not the same guy, but holy shit fuck off spastic.
Morale can be lost regardless of leader action.
However; Undead legions are dependent on their leaders to keep them functioning, otherwise they'll slow and eventually crumble to dust.
So their heroes are far more important and need to be kept safe as they keep the army alive.
Not just "Morale".
>>
>>338154530
Bretonnia is already in the game. They just don't have a campaign. You can play them in multiplayer battles.

>>338156953
Well technically the effects of being crumbled is added on top of routed, so he's right with that regard. It's just a different state anyway and he's generalizing too much because the morale system is huge part of Total War. It's not innovative or realistic, though.
>>
>>338157165

No he's not right about anything, a unit routing is not fighting, it's fleeing, a unit crumbling is fighting and is just taking extra damage

A unit that has shattered will flee, still not fight, and survive the battle, a unit that has crumbled has fought to the death and doesn't exist anymore.

They are different but it's funny watching him trying to worm his way around it
>>
>>338157347

>he thinks within the game the mechanics are going to be any different

Try worm your way around looking like a complete retard when you actually play the game and see that the two things are one in the same.
>>
>>338156952
Did we read a different post? He's stating that crumbling adds an extra damage taken effect on units, which to be fair isn't mechanically very innovative. Routed units have the same debuff, therefore he justifies that they are considered crumbled anyway because they share the same debuff mechanically.

It's kind of like if you have 20 turds with different kinds of seethrough icing on top of it, they're looking a little different but at the core they convey the same thing.

A 970 is enough to run at 60 fps on High during battles, apparently.

They probably do a shit load of foreshadowing anyway so it becomes obvious a quarter of the way through.

Total war is not your typical game, no other game moves thousands of soldiers in open maps that can involve dense forests or cities all rendering at the same time so you have to apply a different metric when comparing it to other games

Looks like it runs perfectly well, AS LONG as you're not retarded and go full-on supersampling and all the extra shit. (It's not like there's a big difference between ultra and high anyway.) That's makes the whole difference between 35 and 150 fps.

Yet strangely they've been surprisingly open about the game so far.

Yeah most companies use NDA's for games when they're trying to cover up the game not being up to par.

I'm pretty hyped for the free update that gives them a campaign to play. Stopping Archaon with Louen and Beaquis at the helm rather than Franz and Deathclaw seems like a pretty neat thing to try.

If I get to punk him with Grimgor by coming in out of left field and head butting his ass into the turf, I will be happy.

Hell, anything that lets me be the annoying, Heelish third party that ruins everybody elses plans as the Orcs in that particular situation (Chaos Invasion) or any other, makes me happy.

It would be better in a campaign, but that is obviously probably impractical, however fun it would be. (It was fun actually submitting results in the campaign GW did and totally hosing Chaos by actively seeking out THEM to mess with just to spite them and GW. I mean, they were clearly the toughest guys in town, right? Why pick on the Empire when the "Spiky Gits" were clearly tougher, and more worthy of constantly fighting?)

Sorry you feel that way m8, but everyone likes the medieval setting. Your gunpowder games are niche and boring. Medieval is perfect because you have SOME gunpowder, but they don't dominate so every faction ends up the same. Roman period is also good, but we just had both Attila and Rome 2, so fuck a rethread of that. It's been ages since MTW2. It's fucking time.

Of course, Warhammer looks great as well, I'm glad they're branching out, True faction variety is a good thing for gameplay. Shogun 2 was at times great, but the problem is again that everything's just the same fucking samurai units. Asymmetrical factions is where it's at.
>>
>>338172769
Yeah. I'm just really hoping my 2400 and 760 can handle it on low. I am finally getting a fantasy total war and its a dream game of mine.
