Its ded
so, why is karl franz so sexy?
>>339158081
chaos endtimes too easy, everyone wants o be friends and suck your dick even after the crisis is averted
as soon as chaos is beaten everyone should go back to fucking eachother over, and chaos itself need to be MUCH MUCH more dangerous and larger in number
>>339158081
how do I get good at this game? I'm always poor and armies 2/3 my size crush me. flanking is a micromanaging nightmare
I refunded it to my steam wallet and then bought it back 2 days later because I realized I was just bad and now I'm on the path to not being trash
Fucking dwarfs & their mountain/badland settlements are a pain to get to & maintain momentum
May go gather more
>>339158081
>rank seven

what?
Playing Chaos feels a bit tedious.
Having to raze half the map takes a long time.
>>339160298
>Does not seem anything like Rome 2
I don't understand
Is that supposed to be a bad thing?
Has any one managed to bring the dissidents in Sylvania to heel and vassalize them as the empire?
>>339160242
I wasn't aware the Empire can take Bretonian settlements. Interesting.
>>339160502
Don't do it corruption sucks.
Maybe there should be a mod.
>>339160242
noice
I just play around in custom battles until I get a good grasp on how to combat certain units and how to use units effectively, not a bad strategy if you're ass like me

There is a pause button for a reason.

Raid stance prevents attrition
Will all Warhammer games from now on be based on Age of Sigmar?
I don't know what to feel about this
Is it me or are these warscape games far more difficult than the older ones?
>>339160194
I agree with the cartoony, I wish it had a GoT or Attila aesthetic
>>339160502
I had a huge war of attrition against them, eventually after many turns of; attacking, retreating, replenishing, attacking etc..They began requesting peace, knew I had them on the ropes so kept at it Imperial Guard style. Throwing army after army into sylvania until only castle drakenhoff remained. They asked to become my vassal the turn I was about to re-enter sylvania. Accepted as the northmen were becoming a nuisance in the north. Dwarfs hate me now but oh well, who cares about the stunties.

>>339160397
My first TW game. :(
>>339158305
What are those bases made of?
>>339161509
Some board stuff. Guy off of reddit cut em for me. Smooth top and a rough, particle boardish bottom
How do we improve Bretonnia?
>>339161816
Finish it.
This is my favorite.
>>339158081
I haven't used Kemmler, but he probably has the Death magic path as well, just get the single target nuke from that and spam it on the enemy general in every fight, especially against other vamps since when the general dies their army will slowly join him.
>>339158081
My only complaint thus far is how heavily it seems the AI favors skirmishing units (Marauder Horsemen / Pistoleers / etc), and how the only real way to counter a skirmishing unit is your own skirmishing unit that can chase them.
At least as Chaos, that's all I've found. Dogs can chase them the entire map but will never catch. Other horsemen just cancel them out.
Also when you set your own skirmishers to skirmish, they will run a little ways when someone gets in range, then stop. They do not re-engage on their own - you have to manually tell them to attack again unless something is chasing them.
10 hours thus far, all of it on the Chaos campaign. First time around started fucking with humans and Karl Franz decided he wasn't going to have that and as soon as I started seiging Kislev, EVERY HUMAN FACTION with a max stack showed up to wreck my shit.
Second time around decided that wasn't a good idea and figured I would awaken all the tribes - so I rolled along the North coast and wrecked a ton of Northmen shit. Got Archaon to around 20-25, had everything but the top tier. Chosen, etc.
ThenTzeentch pops up and says "hey nice army, would be a shame if something happened to it" and shits out a lord of change and a 1000 man elite army that makes a beeline straight for Archaeon and while I won, it was only at the loss of basically my entire force, meaning I got picked off shortly thereafter.
TL;DR - Chaos is hard.
>>339160515
>freeing urki instead of slaughtering them all
Dumbass got what he deserved.

>>339162402
6 out of fucking 7, and i skipped the top part even
Holy fuck, im playing as the dwarfs and i almost destroyed the greenskin faction, all but their capital city, how the fuck am i supposed to take that with only one army, there are too many orks inside
>>339162496
Literally the popup says something to the tune of, "How like Tzeetch to do this~!"
Yeah. How like him. To shit on his own faction. Yay. Guess I'll replay as Empire.
>>339160298
>rome 2 was good
>>339162586
Just make an army with lots of crossbows and catapults. The ai is a retard and will keep sending units to man the walls, allowing you to pick them off.
>>339162586
... Just maintain the siege? Eventually they start taking huge attrition damage and then you can fight them when they're at half strength.
Or get a second stack to reinforce your main army.
>>339162578
He's completely right you know.
>>339162723
>mfw you actually think this.
>>339162714
I dont have moni tho
>>339162716
Is it that huge, because they have some pretty good units in there as well and im pretty early game so i dont have anything good yet
>>339162723
Except he isn't. If you don't think Ashigaru spam or arrow siege spam is casual as fuck and breaks Shogun 2 then you are so bad at Total War that you really shouldn't give an opinion on it.
And every TW game is like that except Attila and Warhammer, really.
I'm guessing this game has big flaws and will be improved with some patches and mods
So I'll play as orcs first then much later do an Empire (my favourite) game once things are deepened
I do wish there was a mode that added comfy economic management like EB
I really enjoyed the Warhammer mod for MTW:2. I hope this isn't more shallow than that.
>>339162723
You can tell by the typing style is some underage twat who doesnt understand this hame revolves around the table top, not the old franchises. We play our battles on open fields and city battles when its a capital or walled city. Its even in the books that Order armies sally out and meet the enemy to avoid the city burning
>>339163078
>arrow siege spam
Oh you mean that thing you can totally do in TW Warhammer.
>>339163170
No you can't, if you set a unit just outside a bowmans view range and then walk an archer around his back to fire on him then he will move to get out of the fire instead of sitting in it like a retard.
kys scrub you are too shit at TW to even give your shitty newbie opinions faggot.
>>339162402
>>339162501
>>339162578
all correct.
>>339163078
ashigaru spam does not work online in land battles.
The chaos in my game were very underwhelming. Got wiped out with ease by mostly my allied factions
WHERE IS THE BLOOD i WAS PROMISED?
>>339159860
Its kinda funny because in release day and the day after. People were genuinely crying that the Chaos Event was way too fucking strong.
Now that we are weeks into the game, suddenly the chaos event is easy shit.
>>339163361
Didn't even know about that strat, doesn't sound like it has anything to do with a siege though. I was referring to just spamming an army of canons and archers and just killing the entire enemy army as they keep sitting on the wall.
>>339160194
>>339161236
Warhammer Online nailed the art style. I wish they were using that. I find the style that TW used just hideous
>>339163553
Wait a week or two and then you can buy it for $5.
>>339163549
What difficulty are you playing at?
Just wiped the dwarfs out, made Karak Azhul my vassal and unified every tribe except the Top knots, whom I'm kicking the shit out.
After a few false starts ending up with me getting horribly raped by random doomstacks, it's a nice feeling
>>339163965
RIP WH:O
>>339164079
Who?
>>339163104
You guess is wrong? There are no technical issues in the game. No patch is coming because there is nothing patch. No mods are required either and quite honestly I shit on modfags since the mods out make the game easier, not better.
Skinmods are okay though.
>>339164079
I have a friend who I played it with. We talk about it a lot.
It could've been great. But they didn't balance shit and focused on PvE content in the lands of the dead. What the fuck was wrong with them? Did they want that WoW money that bad? THEY HAD A GREAT PVP GAME! And they were going up against Wrath of the Lich King for fucks sake. WoW at it's peak!
At least we'll always have the art style and emulated servers to enjoy. But still.
>>339163965
>that one guy who wants every fantasy game to look like WoW
*cringes*
Also lol @ the Bethesda shills turning up in these threads and claiming that the game looks 'watered down', that the weapons don't really seem to connect, and that all the units look the same, which is exactly the criticism that was levelled at Halo: Doom edition, which they're trying to sell, unsuccessfully, because it sucks.
>>339164292
A DLC where you can cyber-paint and remodel your units is not only welcome, it's fucking mandatory. Maybe higher upkeep costs could function as points on your army roster.
>my fucking sides
>>339164640
That would be great, has anyone mentioned it to CA? Otherwise it won't actually happen.
>>339164292
>I shit on modfags since the mods out make the game easier, not better.
They do.
The first mods that came out and that people were using removed agents and provide more income.
>>339164780
kek'd
>>339163965
looks absolutely nothing like warhammer fantasy battle and instead looks more like a fan creation (which it is)
stop crying that a warhammer game actually looks like the tabletop game its based on
>>339164640
>>339164839
A version more complex than the one in Dawn of War would be quite literally great.

First of all, fuck off
Second: It's not WoW style you shitstain
I can respect WoW for what it did with it's art style: Embrace the technological limits and work around it with your texture and polygonal style.

???
???????????
You know that GW had an on-site person in their developers' offices that had to approve everything, right? It was licensed and everything?
>>339164292
Is it? Can you explain (or someone) the depth of the economic and strategic system? I'm worried it is shallow based on comments I've read
I've also heard complaints of crashes/stuttering (on high end rigs)
I don't have that much cash right now so spending 60$ now needs to be worth it. I enjoy Attila and modded Rome 2 (the former more), but remember lots of things in Attila had to be fixed in the first months, like Chosen Uar Warriors being absurdly OP
>>339165290

>>339165683
I'm a huge WHFB fan, the reason I want realistic graphics is because the art in the books had this awesome, detailed artstyle that I found very nice compared to the glowy/chunky fantasy stuff of other universes
So I would want it to look like the detailed, realistic, moody look of the fluff art. Well, not the Adrian Smith stuff, the later art.
>>339165787
>I enjoy Attila
Then you will enjoy this.
Things removed: sanitation(useless mechanic until Skaven gets announced), family trees(useless mechanic, the game doesn't work in years, nobody ages as time doesn't move forward, and if it does its incredibly slow).
Nvidia high ends have been reported(here) with some issues, AMD CPU have been reported with some issues. Yet, people with high end Nvidia and AMD CPU have been also reported to run the game perfectly with no issues.
Everyone agrees optimization is better than ever.
Hardly any crashes, the crashes reported were people using mods.
>>339160194
wait they abandoned the gritty artstyle of the other games? does it look like civ6?
is there no fucking blood?
>>339166180
>the art in the books
Fanfiction. The art of the painted units is what matters. Can't believe someone out there still twists their mind into thinking stupid google images are meant to represent a table top toy war game, that's so early 00s.
>>339164004
Hard, I made too little enemies it seems
>>339166313
>Things removed
You forgot the food and the tax adjustment.
>>339166478
There hasn't been blood in total war games for like, 7 years now or something. Shogun 2 removed them and never returned since then.
>>339166590
Tax isn't removed.
Food is removed indeed. while there is no excuse for it, I never liked it so whatever. Any feature that sidetracks the player from warring is awful in my opinion.
>>339166868
Tax adjustment, you missed an entire word there.
>>339166868
He asked about the strategic and economic depth, if you don't care about it then don't give your half assed opinion and tell him it's all good.
>>339166941
>implying you can't adjust it on and off
>>339166868
I never liked it either. Fucking Shogun and Rome II never failed to completely piss me off when im at -1 food and everything goes tits up. I play TW for the fucking battles, not as a politcal bread winner simulator
>>339167061
Don't come to Total War for economy. Paradox is right across the street.
Its like someone saying he plays Crusader Kings 2 for the combat. That person SHOULD be mocked.
Oh for fuck sake, why do they do this? With the AI perfect kiting this is a fucking nightmare.
>>339167190
Then don't act like there's no difference between the depth from Attila to Warhammer, tell him he should seek out Paradox games instead of "it's the same goy, buy it now."
>>339167105
This. I don't know if CA is trying to repent for their past sins and take their game series into a new direction with this or not. But it sure as hell makes me feel hopeful that they will try to move into a more Total War-like direction from now on.
The campaign map should be about agents, province loyalty, and troop recruitment. Nothing more. And all of these 3 are directly related into warring, which is what total war was about since its conception.
If they reimplement it I will throw a bitch fit andjust deal with it ;_;
>>339167262
I wouldn't be surprised to see people cheese with armies of mounted archers online.
>>339167262
>why is the AI smart and deploys forces to defeat me!
Have you tried not being an insufferable, cheesy faggot?
>>339167520
C...can we be friends?
>>339167393
I never told him its the. I literally told him what was removed and that I, in my opinion (I literally said it) didn't care about.
I also implied that he should go to Paradox.
Just because you are retarded and need to be spelled out everything doesn't mean I think that guy is retarded.
>>339167190
>Don't come to Total War for economy. Paradox is right across the street.
Economics and supply are part of wars, and its also comfy to slowly build up your kingdom. It gives incentives for gaining certain regions. Some of us like both economics and war in the same game. The Warhammer MW2 mod had the full economics of the base game and gave reason to seize things like warpstone with merchants or gain ports
It's not an either/or thing, you can have both in the same game for a deeper game. Pic related, the peak of TW
>warhammer game
>no blood
What the fuck is this shit?
>>339167581
>kiting
>smart
Slap yourself.
>>339167573
Could be. Although it would probably be really hard to micro manage each unit to kite effectively. And it works only against armies with little to no ranged units.
>>339160886
If you make them a vassal you get your own lands corrupted smart-ass.
>>339167858
A regular warhammer game, last time we saw blood was in napoleon, like 10 years ago.
Blood is closer to Westwood before getting bought by EA than it is to modern total war.
>>339168046
Blood, as in the shit inside of your body, not as in the old FPS. There is no blood in E:TW or N:TW.
>>339167710
This post, bitch nigga
>>339166313
>"What's the strategic and economic depth like?"
>If you liked Attila you'll like this
>Only two completely useless things were removed
Literally no slight indication or implication that what he's looking for isn't here and is in fact in Paradox games, why would you even try to lie about posts which are literally in the same thread and can be freely re-read? Kill yourself.
>>339167846
Is that a Rome 1 overhaul? Rome 1 was indeed the peak of the series.
From Rome 1 to warhammer the only thing missing is the family tree which wouldn't work in warhammer. Praise the gods they stopped the cinematic 1v1 fights and the battles are now more like Rome 1.
I miss Rome 1.
>>339168207
Oh, you misinterpreted me then.
>I liked Attila
This is what anon said. If he liked pillaging and raping and sacking as much as I did in Attila. Then yes, he would indeed enjoy Warhemmer. As warhammer is Attila without the stupid annoyances it had.
That was my basis for that sentence. Sorry if it confused you.
>>339167907
>Slap yourself.
Says the turbo nigger running around with Kholek. What, expect them to just throw Spearman at you while you stump around like a faggot?
Radious Y/N?
If not, any particular reason other than "it's shit"?
I posted on /vg/ but I'll post here too:
global recruitment costs twice as much as local goods
I realized this after 70 turns
I just recruited like 3 stacks of greatswords, reiksguard and cannonsglobally

Kholek is the one who killed most of them you goddamn spergtard
And they didn't throw anything at me, I picked Archeon as my main chaos hero and just spawned Kholek like 5 turns before this battle and I'm the one who attacked this army anyway. Kislev build this retarded army regardless of your general.

>>339169229
Global recruitment allows you to recruit units from anywhere in your empire, but at a steep added cost.
Local recruitment limits you to local building chains but is way cheaper
>>339163965
I miss that game. My KotBS was fucking fabulous.
>>339160502
Yes, I beat the shit out of 3 of their armies in quick succession and wrecked Mannfred in 2 of those. Now they just have Drakenhof and Essen in Ostermark. My agents have lowered the corruption in their own territories to about ~20% so they take attrition whenever they're out of their cities/encampments, yet Mannfred still has an army following and reinforcing me while I destroy the overrun orc cities in the mountains directly east.

>>339158081
I just bought the game and I'm excited for some chaos shenanigans. How do you unlock them as a faction, I see someone else here posting as them.
Are they going back to their roots and making some factions only unlock after you beat them in a campaign or something?

But what the fuck is with them only being free for a week? How is that even acceptable?
I mean I can see people rolling over and letting the greek city-states go in Rome 2, but Chaos plays fundamentally differently from any other faction doesn't it?
>>339170297
Sega tried to jew us with Day 1 Chaos faction DLC. After months of complains and sabotaging youtube videos. We got a deal with Sega where they would let us instead get Chaos DLC for free if we buy the game the first week of release.
So you gotta activate the DLC, I pity those that don't know this and will have to pay for the DLC at the end of the week. But its Sega's last attempt to be jewish.
Was this in the extended edition or something?
Fucking hackson, I swear to Christ.
>>339170601
>Spinning spear artillery made to knock arrows out of the sky
Seems oddly specific for a weapon and requires really good timing and prep.
How playable is that Bretonnia mod? I know there's no quests but is there enough units to get decent survivability early game and power late?
>>339170601
Haven't seen the Hobbits, why are Elves fighting Dwarves here??
>>339170997
To be fair, Elves are annoying fucks and they've probably been fighting them for hundreds of years by now.

Everyone's rooting for the High and Dark Elves, but anyone who's ever played WHF knows that Wood Elves are one of the staples of the gameplay with their mix of mobile but fragile skirmishers/archers and sluggish super-sized units. They're the original fucking space muhreens, gameplay-wise.
WHF without Wood Elves would not really be WHF. But then again, GA probably quavers at the thought of having to program Wardancers.
Convince me not to buy it /v/
i'm kinda broke, and i'm also notoriously bad at total war games, but this looks too fun to pass up.
and also i know i'll inevitably get better.and if a kind anon has time, post a few pros and cons to the game in contrast to older total war games?

>>339171153
>They're the original fucking space muhreens,

The AI is rich, sack and raid. Having negative money means nothing, just continue the war.
>>339171781
You get an income reduction for every extra army you have, so if you had one army and he had one and you were both only just supporting it, then confederating would put you in the negatives.

Maybe he started writing it after 3 hours, then stopped, played to 15 and started writing again.
>>339171825
In terms of gameplay
WE are fragile skirmishers with lots of tricks, wardancer buffs, and tree regen. Deldar on tabletop remind me of this. Fast, precise and frail
Space marines are tough, few and reliable. More like Brettonia or Ogres
>>339171720

>AI is as brainless as he is
Well yes, there obvious ways to bully the AI, but at the same time the economics and finances were made difficult for the player to compensate. Even with this, EB has deep building mechanics, economics, trade, comfy atmosphere, a sense of culture-building, and it's hard to get your finances going (I like smart challenge)
>>339160962
I actually like the high fantasy of AoS was reading some of the lore on the wiki and there's a lot of room for cool shit I especially like how they added a lot of beasts to the setting Need to read some books on it

>>339167846
>gave reason to seize things like warpstone with merchants or gain ports
And that still exists in this game. Starting as Empire? if you want to not be a bitch you take Marienburg because it has the best port in the map. Certain regions have resources that give it unique buildings that give a bigger economic bonus than the basic building does, likewise some regions have buildings that have unique military buildings that give certain units better bonuses (Chapterhouses, Nuln gunnery school, etc). Complaining about economic depth then posting pre-empire TW is stupid, because all buildings did in those games was offer a straight bonus too, there was just more shit to build to stack your income more.
>>339172032
Let em riot. Best result is they run off north to go be a nuisance to the humies. Worst thing that can happen is you come back down to a big army of boys which you just squash and get some more fightin

Because I've played total war since rome and I need advanced tactics like using loose formation? Are you retarded or something?
>>339174153
>loose formation

>>339174153
just edit the unit spacing in the game files. I am trying to create a unit of empire archers and plan on spreading them out.
>>339174336
CA deemed it too advanced for Warhammer fans apparently.
>>339174336
Yes it is. How are you planning to skirmish the enemy without it? Even fucking AI was using it, even though AI is shit.
>>339174342
That's not a proper fix.
>>339170242
I thought there was evidence of
Kislev being dlc
>>339174153
>advanced tactics

I suppose that would be a very complex tactic for tatertot munchers like yourself.
>>339173343
They are literally only useful against large, when you have a 2:1 ratio of slayer units:large units
>>339174591
Yeah, and removing all formations and abilities makes it more complex apparently. Fuck off, retard.
>>339174551
>loose formation makes him feel like a "smart hardcore gamer"
*tips Fedora*
>>339174551
soldiers that fought in tight formations didn't spread out or ordered to brace themselves. Baking that stuff into the unit itself is a pretty good workaround.
>>339174732
Well removing loose formation would certainly make things harder rather than easier
Is there an external link for the help resource fucking *anywhere*? I'm having massive difficulties understanding the game and following campaign objectives because I don't have access to a fucking reference that works. Playing the game in offline means every F1 or Right-Click help menu is just fucking blank.
>>339174771
>not using formations makes him feel like a "smart hardcore gamer"
*tips Fedora*
>>339173336
That explains it.
They have no armor so I guess they're only a hard counter to armor piercing.
Is there anywhere I can find details about unit stats that aren't in the game description?
>>339174732
awwww, game make things harder for you? Must be suuuccchhh a burden on a tactical and complex gamer like yourself. Im sure you can look under the Bed-Wetters tag for mods and you can get your little loose formation button back
>>339174897
It won't. Enemy is not using it either. And I don't need the game to be hard, I need the game to be fun with a lot of content to explore. I don't give a shit if formations doesn't suit WH IP like they said. I just want to explore how different formations will work out in different situations, instead of mindlessly rushing everyone every time.

isnt there a webm that shows shielded Spearman snapping their shields up to a charge?
>>339175759
Shogun 2 has too many buttons on too many units, and as people in this thread are pretty determined to make clear, managing more than one unit is far too complex for Warhammer's audience.
>>339175973
>lol only hardcore gamers like me can shiftclick a batch of units and press a button
Maybe you should go make a thread for a hardcore gamer for hardcore gamers like yourself with an AI more on your brainwave like Medieval 2.
wow this game is so fun
while you struggle to move around the map, 3+ small stacks of niggers roam your lands raiding and sacking. and good luck catching them. they will immediately run. did you somehow manage to catch one? oh cool, now 3 others are on the complete opposite side of your territory. you will NEVER catch them.

>>339176195
>HELP HELP IM SUCC AT GAYMS AN COMPUTER RAPING ME
>>339175973
yes, because telling your soldiers that are professionals and led by their officers to point their sticks upward is the height of strategy.
The PainTrain is coming for you.
>>339176881
Yes, because having every system of micromanagement automatically managed for you is the height of strategy.
>>339177090
Yeah they should add a button to tell your guys when to shit for super smart hardcore gamers like you
Such strategy
>>339176810
ruskey it is then
>>339177167
Nah, one extra button would be too much for you guys to handle, they'd lose all their sales.
>>339176810
>Denuvo isn't going to be cracked till a big AAA game comes out with it
Warhammer and Doom are both big triple AAA games.
>>339177293
Yeah you're right if we had a button for every little thing we could tell them when to sleep and to drink and there could be a button where they break out into an organized moonwalk for the ultimate strategy, but this would be too complicated for me and that's why we cant have nice things.
>>339177512
Yeah I agree it's a shame you're the reason we can't have nice things.
>>339177368
No. They are both AAA games but not the big hyped one like MGSV was. The last time Denuvo was cracked, it was because MGSV came out.
>>339177368
When IS the crack coming out? I'm itching for it, I lament the buy-fags, CA is going to release a trillion DLC's later.
>>339177723

>Doom
>Hyped
I am not sure which universe you are from but DOOM was not hyped at all.
>>339177723
>not the big hyped one like MGSV was
Does that even matter? Is there some threshold that must be met? Both warhammer and nuDoom are really fucking popularand not nearly as disappointing as MGSV.
Advise me.
>>339178406
Try spinning, its a good trick
>>339178406
Lube up. Assume the position.
>>339178236
Well it must be so hyped that the Chinese are willing to get off their asses and crack it? You are sadly deluded if you think Warhammer or Doom are anywhere as popular, you just have to look at the sales to see the difference in popularity.
>>339178406
put your head between your legs and kiss your ass goodbye
Which new races would you like to have added to the rooster?
Mine are: Tomb kings, Lizardmen, all kinds of elves and skaven
Which pretty much sums up most of all the other races tho.
>>339178670
I think Ant-men would be pretty neat.
>>339178524
>Does that even matter? Is there some threshold that must be met?
Since it seems you can't read. Things get cracked if enough people are interested, and both warhammer and new Doom are plenty fucking popular.
>>339178670
Skaven will be the hardest to implement since they never really travel on ground.
>>339178406
Alt f4
>>339178670
we're getting 16 eventually, so it's not really a question of which ones but when
my guess is the various flavors of elf in the first expansion, with maybe Lizardmen to round out that side of the map
>>339178774
>both warhammer and new Doom are plenty fucking popular.
Clearly not popular enough senpai.
Remember MGSV got cracked within the week. How long has Doom been out? You constantly posting that it is popular won't make it a popular game.
>>339178406
Pike square
Pike square and cry
>>339178928
It is popular anon. look at the sales numbers for Warhammer. You saying it's not popular doesn't mean it's not popular.
>>339178406
my advice is don't get attacked like that twice
>>339178928
MGSV was the first Denuvo game to be cracked, and it's been updated since then, to be fair
it's not like MGSV came out and the Chinese magically had a revelation, but they'd been working on it since it's introduction and only cracked it when MGSV came out.
then it was updated and their old method didn't work anymore
>>339179060
I never say it's not popular.
I am saying it is not popular enough to warrant the chinks cracking it. Clearly that is the case.
>>339179060
Yeah, 500k total. MGSV sold 10 times that in its first month. Not even him but you're just straight up delusional if you think their popularity is comparable.
>>339178903
16 races? Did they confirm that?
guys, what is the most fun faction in the game in your opinion?
>>339168249
You're remembering Rome 1 with over a decade of mods. It was in no way the peak of the series, the jump from 2d to 3d was a game changer but basically every faction besides Rome was weak as fuck and had weak rosters.
>>339179558
Not him but its successful relative to the market and its genre.
>>339179558
Learn to read anon. I never said they were comparable, just that Warhammer and Doom are plenty popular enough for hackers to attempt cracking Denuvo.

According to you. But clearly the people cracking denuvo disagrees with you. No amount of crying it is popular on a taiwanese sock puppet forum will get them to change their opinion.
So when are the Sega jews going to release that blood and gore DLC? Playing Chaos without it feels wrong. We need blood for the blood god.
>>339158081
>tfw trying not to give in to the hype

Then don't do it.
>>339160962
No you stupid fuck.
>>339179681
Really now? What's your reasoning for that? It seems evident it isn't since they didn't even bother for Tomb Raider which sold almost 4 times as much as this.
Learn to not be a moron, anon.
>>339179589
>>339179710
they were a bit coy about it, but with two more games equal in scope to this one+Bretonnians, that's already 14 races, two more DLC races and bam 16

If you think they are not hard at work trying to crack it right now, you have brain problems. This shit doesn't happen overnight.

You can get hyped up for anything
I just feel like I don't want to spend 60 yurodollars on a game and blow my load on it when in probably less than a year's time it will be in a far superior state with updates and DLC at a lower price. Also I'll probably have upgraded my rig by that time. I regret having bought Attila at release when it was expanded so much over time, it was filled with generic placeholders at release compared to now.
>>339180693
Because each time they announced well before the scene release that they're trying.

But really I don't like bullying children and it seems like you are an actual autist who would just keep the "no u" shit up for as long as the thread exists instead of facing reality so this is my last reply.
The groups who cracked denuvo before said they are not doing it anymore. And even if your buttfuck retarded wishful thinking was correct and they were just lying and have been actively working on it every day, it means it takes them minimum half a year to crack a game with it now so you'd need to wait years to get around to playing it. Just try asking mommy and daddy to buy it for you instead of living in your dumbfuck dream world, kiddo.
