Anyone else get a meh feeling about this one? Seems like nothing really new except sea/land mix battles.

Also why use that voice actor, I understand that an Asian accent is great, but it was very awkward to listen too.

They have added so much to this title compared to the previous. For me to have to explain them means you just don't know the game. Which means I will leave you with your 'jump the gun' opinion based off of a trailer..

This looks to be a great itteration of my favorite title out there. I just hope the release is nothing like Empire, god that was horrible.

They really need to downplay the siege battles more in the trailers if it still contains wall scaling. That was one of the most hated parts about Empire.

They added so much to Empire over the previous ones and guess what? It was still shit. This campaign map might look beautiful, but I guarantee you that the AI pathfinding is going to be so inept that it won't be able to use terrain effectively.

So... basically its medieval 2, but in japan. I think Im just gonna play medieval 2 again, because its AWESOME!

EDIT: I did, to be completly honest, think that Empire: total war sucked. So if this game turns out to be just like Empire, then this serie is officaly dead to me.

Its gonna be full glitches like all creative assembly products they really cant make games very well.
Seriously? I haven't found any; at least not in the Total War games. :S

Oh. Hell. Yes.
I wasn't going to get this after the fiasco that was empire, but... just look at that campaign map! I mean, fuck the battles, you could play the entire game on that map and not feel as if you'd wasted your money. Just so long as the game doesn't require the insane amount of micromanagement that Empire did, I can guarantee that I'm going to be in line for it!

*edit* As long as it doesn't rely on Steam. Please please please let there be no compulsory Steam.
Ah yes. I do have to agree with this. This very nearly ruined Empire for me, and -did- for my friend. :(

Did play the game it couldn't even handle fences the unit went over fence could cost you a game. I talking about empire also empire problems were nothing to do with steam have ever looked at the creative assembly forum boards.

Actually I played that game unmodded for a year. Sure they could have done more to it and yes the testing schedule got heavily rushed. But deep down it was a great game, thats why people are still playing it over Napolean. And with the mods now available for Empire it i still truly a great gaming experience.

They stop any support for empre when released Napoleon they left hanging full glitches that the modders had to fix.

...Wut. Seriously, mine ran fine. :S It took me a while to figure a few things out, but it all worked fine. The AI bugged out maybe once or twice for me, but aside from that it wasn't too bad. I can see why that would seriously tick you off though. :(

Because there a lazy sloppy developer who make excuses and false promise about fixing things.
Napoleon had no issues for me. Empire was a bad release and they more than said so themselves.

But name any other gaming dev that has such an avid modding community that enhance the product so much that after a year a big % of users dont run vanilla?

With all that talk about The Art of War, they better have an AI that you can bluff into submission. Just saying.

It seems that they forgot to mention Sun Tzu's famous quote "Do the back attack".

While everyone acknowledges the issues in Empire, I don't recall there being that much of a fuss over Rome and Medieval.

Medieval had few issues nothing major and rome was perfect it seems there more problems with age.
