There haven't been a good Total War game in over a decade. The last one that was semi-passable was Medieval 2 and it too had a shit-ton of problems on its own. The series is dead. Throne of Britannia is just a cheap cash grab and nothing more. Warhammer is an irredeemable pile of shit and Three Kingdoms screams we want the Chink audience pretty hard.

I may not have played it, but I've seen enough of it to know that this is not true.

And I don't need a Medieval 3. I need a good game that doesn't have awful things like teching, limited build slots in cities and generals who level up.

But that's the staple now, so it's not happening.

Medieval 2 has generals who level up though.


5dd0c9 No.14309568

The two systems are hardly similar.

You get stat increases/decreases from traits, but you don't get to pick what they receive.

Command, which only improves morale, is increased by winning, but that's about it. You don't get things like "+5 damage for swordsmen" and "+20 cavalry charge."

>People are already making Medieval 3 mod for Attila, so it's actually sorta true

>>14309587

Because it makes no sense for you, the player, to be able to intervene with their lives to the extent that you get to pick exactly who and what they are going to be.

The whole point of the traits system was to simulate some semblance of human behaviour so they could still develop on their own even if not active and the idea that arrows shot by the archers of one general do more damage than the exact same unit under the command of another is absurd.

A 60 year old general is going to have many more traits and retinue members than one who is 20 but their units are going to perform in the same way, with the exception of morale which may be increased or decreased.

The 60 year old might become a hardcore cuckold from spending decades in a degenerate huge city and faint at the sight of blood, while the 20 year old might turn out to be a military genius who likes to get merry with his troops.

One is going to have severe morale penalties, while the other will have bonuses.

It's not a matter of racking up "experience," but what kind of a person they are. It's about as random as humans are random.

This should not need an explanation.

>>14309598

Medieval 2 and Rome 1 had limited manpower and not RNG.

If you wanted more and better spearmen from a specific castle, you'd build a higher tier barracks.

You are the king, you command the generals to get better.

Why not? The better trained missile units shoot more accurate and thus do more damages to the enemies.

>It's not a matter of racking up "experience," but what kind of a person they are. It's about as random as humans are random.

But it's absolutely about experiences, the more battle-harden a general, the better he is.

Congratulations on leveling up Theodoric here, enjoy your mandatory +1 Zeal! What's that, you don't want extra Zeal? Too fucking bad, you chose to play Visigoths so EVERY. SINGLE. GENERAL you ever level will have to take this skill. Actually, just to compare, let's look at how each game does General skills/traits

>general reaches arbitrary level of experience

>generals gain traits passively and as the result of actions

>generals start with a host of traits, usually influenced by their family or place of birth

>traits that come in this fashion generally give a path for each new general (the newest son of my faction leader has traits that make him a horrible city manager but many good ones for command, thus I will focus his actions on campaigns)

The general traits in Attila's skill trees mostly just reduce troop upkeep and recruitment cost and increase morale, the actual +5 attack shits are genetic traits and are gained randomly from birth or combat.

>>14309814

>Skills should come from experiences i.e. levels.

No, skills should come from experience via usage. There is absolutely no valid reason that you should be able to build a general who specializes in cavalry warfare when he's went from the beginning of the game to the end of his career commanding militia because you haven't unlocked good cavalry yet and didn't want to waste money making trash cavalry. You should never be able to hand off a stack of high-tier cavalry to a complete cavalry nobody who already has every advancement with cavalry.

If they really, really want skill trees to work, then they need to accept that they need to track maybe 5 different experience values, and have skills be purchased with experience points as opposed to levels. They need to go old tabletop RPG as opposed to modern RPG.

> There is absolutely no valid reason that you should be able to build a general who specializes in cavalry warfare when he's went from the beginning of the game to the end of his career commanding militia because you haven't unlocked good cavalry yet and didn't want to waste money making trash cavalry.

It comes from 2 things:

1. The innate of your general.

2. It comes from experiences gained in the battlefield, you can allocate said experience to reduce the upkeep of cavalry units and increase the charge bonus.

Still, the major of cavalry general still comes from the trait either innate or gained in combat, not through the general skill you can buy.

if that were the case why aren't generals budgets simulated like in Crusader Kings. You could easily do this, by allowing Generals to accumulate a wage and then have your individual units take their upkeep from that wage, the General's skills have nothing to do with upkeep reduction, rather the general would request a higher wage as a result of being more skilled. See Crusader Kings for example of how to do it properly. CA just suck.

Under the hood its the exact same game.

>Wait fucking what? How does that work, these games play totally different than each other, with the exception of Empire/Napoleon.

Most of the Warscape games only have cosmetic changes. They still effectively play the same, have the same bugs, have the same stupidly predictable AI. The only differences are in theme, they'll change a few buttons, make things appear different, but under the hood you can tell its the same overall experience. Its no more obvious than it is with Shogun 2 Fall of the Samurai where you can see all of the systems that exist in modern warscape games playing together, gunpowder, melee ect. They change so very little beyond that point and improve fuck all other than the graphics. All their games play exactly the same they're just ordered differently to create the illusion that they changed things.

I can't talk about what the release was like, but with the exception of a few bugs, Med2 today works fine and is very enjoyable which cannot be said for some of the later titles.

I agree with M1 having a lot of nice little details that 2 dropped.

But don't forget that Empire brought us all of the Shogun 2 fellating and that the series has dropped in quality significantly since.

It's not about hating a game as much as it is about wanting the series to bring back the things that made it great.

Unfortunately, CA prefers their new audience and we're just some irrelevant old dinosaurs in their eyes, so there is no need to ever listen to us.

The Canopic jars system really makes me wish the item system was better in warhammer. That and the fact I've been reading the Legend of Sigmar books where the human kings had weapons they held in special regard made from Dwarfs and Elves.

You should be able to make various weapons and banners maybe with your heroes (have Empire Bright wizards make a Banner of Eternal Flame, Runesmiths making runes or something) and trade them. It would also be nice to actually see the banners and maybe some of the unique items for your heroes. The fact that there still is no Runefang for Karl Franz is ridiculous.

Yeah it's a shame since Empire was the most ambitious jump for CA. If they had just spent time polishing it up before release it would probably end up ranked as one of the better TWs

While Shogun 2 is vastly overrated, it does do it's rock-paper-scissors fights in a well polished manner, but suffers badly from the use of warscape.

The engine would be perfect for Victoria Total War or Prussia Total War, but I can understand why they went with China this go around. I'm not sure how their combination of hero mechanics from WaWa will slide into RoTK, but it could work if it's not a mess on release and could open the door for some interest quasi historical stuff like the Iliad

>I have hope things will turn around one day, once their casual streamlined bubble bursts.

>Daily reminder that M2 had an empire tier release and is only looked back on fondly due to Empire being that bad and mods.

I remember it vividly, the release was fuck due to the AMD issues, I was on an Athlon at the time. The initial release had issues, but was still a far better time than Empire ever was. Kingdoms however was god-tier. It changed so much and added so much content that Kingdoms in its own right was radically different to the M2 vanilla (no better exemplified than in the Americas campaign because of how vastly different it plays from any other total war). That CA actually gave a fuck about their game, yes Medieval 2 was rushed and I know this from the people I know that worked on it.

But here's the thing too, Even Rome 1 had a terrible release. For the same above mentioned things that people look fondly on M2 they also do the same for Rome 1. But in all honesty Medieval 2 is the better of the two because it has the least amount wrong with it, again primarily because the engine was rewritten off the Rome 1 base which is why you don't get units getting stuck in building geo like in Rome 1, they actually path properly in city battles most of the time. They're still utterly crap at getting off walls however. Its not perfect.

Do I think that Medieval 2 could've been done better, definitely, there's features that Medieval 1 had that would've fit right at home in 2. But to be fair Medieval 1's Campaign map was no where near as detailed. I mean I still really like Medieval 1, but I prefer Medieval 2 just because it plays better overall.

This was the biggest surprise for me.

Sure, there wasn't a very large window of time between Med1 (2002), Rome1 (2004, with Alexander releasing months before Med2 would) and Med2 (2006), but all of those were complete games and had expansions which were close to the release of the next game.

But lately they've been putting them out one after another with barely any breaks. WaWa2 came out only a year after 1 and I think some expansions for Attila were also released recently.

I'd argue that it is more a matter of troops behaving like actual soldiers and not toy ones (they take a second to react, some quicker some slower), but that's just me.

Getting the cavalry into formation when trying to flank can be a huge bitch and I mostly don't even bother because of that.

Walls are a nightmare and trying to set up during the deployment phase while defending a city is an exercise in futility. One and only point for Warscape from me, because that's something they actually fixed.


76cedb No.14323117

>>14323091

No, it's just unresponsive, like when you tell the cavalry to run, they just walk.

And sometimes they are just fucking stuck in mid way between charging and not charging, and just raise their lances and move extremely slowly.

At least the cavalries in Attila charge when you tell them to charge.

Shogun 2, Attila and Warhammer are actually perfect fine without mods because the modding scenes in those games just add into the game instead over of making huge overhaul like Medieval 2.

Are you sure you're giving them enough of a head start before charging and double clicking?

Also, don't give any other orders until they actually perform the charge, otherwise you will break it, even if you click on the same enemy unit.

I'm actually sure because I give them like 10 feets between them and enemy archers. Sometimes they are just walking with their lances towards the archers.

And there's the matter of the charging cavalries changing direction and hitting the spearmen closest to them instead of the archer when you click on the archer.

I dunno if it's this is Stainless Steel doing or vanilla Med 2, I'm too annoyed by the bugged combat of Med 2 to retry.

No clue how far away that is, but try making the distance greater. Sometimes they refuse to run when you double click on the ground, but I don't think that ever happens when you actually target an enemy.

As for them randomly changing direction, I don't think I've ever seen that. Maybe you accidentally clicked on a sole spearman in a bunch of archers?

Who knows. The game is buggy, but not that buggy, I think.

I still like Call of Warhammer, I think it nailed down the doom and despair aspect of Warhammer better than WaWa.

>But that's where Medieval 2 shines too, it serves as an engine for modder.

It's kinda funny, I used to help I guy with his Med 2 mod and I learned something strange; Med 2 gives modders more room to work with than the later games but the engine itself is a bitch to deal with while the Warscape can't be modded to the extent that Med 2 can it is a hell of a lot less frustrating to deal with.

I liked Shogun 2's sieges the best because the AI could actually pose a threat to the player, at least when it was attacking.

I've only played Medi2 and Shogun2. Shoguns' sieges might not be all that interesting but they're a hell of a lot less frustrating than Medievals'. Medievals sieges are fun, until you get past the walls. Then it becomes a game of trying to figure out where you can actually place your units and having to babysit them so that they're not constantly going in the exact opposite direction of the one you told them to. Also, Medis' battle AI is retarded. Half the time infantry will just sit in the command zone doing fuckall while your archers shoot at them from >20m away.

It's not just sieges though. Webm is a field battle. Not shown is the 35 minutes of the AI staring in my general direction while I made and ate lunch. And before anyone says "Mod!", it's happened in vanilla as well. And I've only played through a medium campaign as England in that.

Even outside the battlemap sieges are terrible. The AI never actually attacks your towns, only tries to starve them out. And while, yeah, it's realistic it's also boring. And I swear if I ever spend two turns building ladders and siege towers only to find out that the place I'm attacking is a ram only map I will make a twitter and write an angry tweet to CA.

Really, the only thing Medieval has going for it is mods. But fuck me if there aren't some great ones.

I had the most fun with Rome Total War, Medieval 2 Total War and Napoleon Total War. Shogun 2 Fall of the Samurai was fun for a while, but the strat map being so small made the whole thing complete and utter horseshit.

I found Napooopan to be particularly memorable with La montée de l'Empire-mod, paired with sub-mod that raises the battlefield unit limit up to 80. AI handles even that amount of units pretty much flawlessly, which resulted in some extremely intense, exhausting, and fun defensive battles.You basically have to pull out every damn trick in your playbook when defending some city.

The only flaws that I can remember were when game mechanics shat the bed due to units involved. I lost a battle where I was attacking, and enemy was receiving reinforcements due to time running out. Enemy reinforcements simply did not come to the battlemap fast enough. That problem certainly could have been outright bypassed by setting the battle time limit to unlimited. Other problem was due to mechanics involved when a unit tries to assault a house that has been garrisoned by a enemy unit. Only one unit can assault house at a time, resulting in situations where AI is sitting outside the house waiting for one unit to die or rout so that AI can send next one in.

It 's silly for them to spend effort on this but at the same time I don't get the assrage:

> In some cultures, like Rome and Greek – women can only serve a social/political role while in other women can be generals and fight alongside men.

>For cultures where women can’t hold public offices there is a special “Cursus Honorum” path that follows the increase in “behind-the-stage” political influence of women.

>There are special events (dilemmas) that portray the trials and tribulations associated with women coming to power in ancient times. Usually, there are traditions and prejudice standing in the way. Such events allow the player to recruit a female leader or gain some other bonuses from parties that would oppose such a decision.

>Faction leaders of opposite gender can now marry as a diplomatic action, significantly strengthening the relations between the two factions.

>The basic marriage action now has political implications.

As far as diverrsity pushing goes in games, this is pretty not awful example of it: It's acknowledging that women being in positions of authority and power was unusual and isn't handwaving it like asscreed did, and is actually using those sort of cultural barriers and factors and turning them into actual game mechanics.

I've always been of the opinion that diversity pandering is stupid, but if you use women, blacks, gay people, etc either in ways that aren't beating you over the head with how diverse they are it's not a problem, and if you actually use them to do interesting things either mechanically (such as here) or conceptually, then that's fine. SJW's typically don't do either of those things though because they only care about virtue signalling and don't actually want to do tthe work in terms of making shit mechnically interesting or doing the resesearch for making a game based around african mythology or whatever.
