Be careful what you wish for. What you'll get (if you ever get a historical title again) will probably be even worse than what I've described.
Medieval II Remastered soon...
Come home, white gamer...
>Medieval II Remastered soon...
sorry little bro CA nots going to give them the chance to work on it
Medieval 2 works fine to this day, so why bother...
Faction and region number limits
Modders need SOME restrictions in order to deliver good mods. Otherwise you end up like that Rome Remasterd mod with the 1000 province map. Pure bloat and the game wasn't designed for that many provinces.
>Otherwise you end up like that Rome Remasterd mod with the 1000 province map.
yea and its extremely based
Frick off homosexual
So true
You need to be extremely autistic to think that TW style game is fit for having so many provinces
Sometimes less is more
>You need to be extremely autistic
who do you think these mods are made for? back to one province france you go.
The only people who think having a massive map is a problem are spergs who feel compelled to WC every single campaign
>Sometimes less is more

I like that pic because it shows that the average Gankerermin is just a 00-10 era scum of the earth console kiddie slop shitter (yes, god of war is more of a kids game than 99% of cutesy platformers just via its target audiance of mctenddies chomping burgeroid youths that swipe theit parents credit cards). Boo hoo, your dogshit busy-box tier slop now caters to girls as well as boys. Cry me a river - its just as shit now as when you licked it up.
>Remoooooooved platforming from [game]
Good.
>no announcements about medieval 2 remaster anywhere
don't bait us like this, damn you!
I'll buy it if they finally fix the fricking siege AI and unit cohesion. Unit cohesion is worse than Rome 2, and the siege AI might be the worst in the entire series.

He means how gays think the Iron Cross and other historical Germanic symbols that were still in use in the 1930's-40's are routinely declared National Socialist symbols and imagery to the point the HRE heraldic eagle that is a derivative of Rome is usually censored or flat removed.
Deaths Head Hussar's for example are Nazi because it shares similarities with the SS one - according to illiterate, university educated social science majors.
It will happen and already has with the Imperial Cross absent from most of the Empire factions in Warhammer.
CA has been sucking diversity wiener for 10+ years for gibs and clearly reached critical mass ala acting like gays and ending up in gay company who thought they were among friends.
There are is a good handful of Prussian and German iconography that the Nazi used extensively. Mainly the Iron Cross.
They even complain about the Zapfenstreich and they have an aneurysm everytime they realise that Japan still uses the rising sun flag.
Maybe they will fix pikes.
Bundeswehr still uses the Iron Cross though? Sure, no more Balkenkreuz for them but that one does not date back to M2 timeframe.
You really think that'll stop the cancelloids? These people are masters at stretching definitions to cover anything they don't like.
The Iron Cross is from the Napoleonic era so it doesn't date back to the M2 timeframe either
these homosexuals betetr not touch med 2
they fricked rome remaster and i can't still believe how they could do it without doing it on purpose
don't try to fix things that work you feral homosexuals
Rome Remastered is the best thing to happen to Total War in the last 10 years you brainless frick. It's by far the superior way to play RTW.
I won’t play your mod.
What's wrong with Rome Remastered?
ugly UI which is a pretty useless complaint. the real issue is that for better or worse, its just the same rome, so AI is still dogshit pathfinding still bad diplomacy useless.
maybe there might be a very very very slight improvement but its not really noticeable as say the newer titles.
what game after rome has better pathfinding?
Medieval 3
They're working on something else though.
This is utterly ridiculous. Why do you invent such obviously over-exaggerated scenarios in their head? Obviously the 3 factions at the start of the game are going to be the HRE, The Byzantine Empire and the Ottoman Empire.
>3 factions at the start of the game on launch that look and play completely different from one another
Never gonna happen. It's going to be 2 cookie-cutter countries with copy-pasted units, and then that one odd-ball country that nobody likes.
The real sin would be game being a reskin of Rome2, just like every post Rome2 game.
HP bars, floaty units with no weight, no collisions, armies only with generals etc
Kek, amazing post OP, entirely agree + based + funny
>warriorkween assassin kills imam. game canceled
do people really want this? Imagine the bloat, 100gb installation size (Rome went from 3.5gb to 45) garbage unoptimized framrate and load times, meanwhile i can play M2TW on my potato PC max settings and very huge unit size.
you are just talking out of your ass, the bloat is from upgraded unit skins and textures which is unavoidable if you want an old game to look halfway decent, how the frick would you even type in gigabytes of code?
why should anybody make games for potato pcs anyway? as charity?
which means that medieval being a clone of Rome 1 won't be 100gb but around 50 like RTWR and every other fricking game with the same level of graphic detail.
and of course some things will not be fixed because it's a remaster of an old game with a limited budget, what we expect from it is that they break the limits of the engine like they did in Rome 1 and open the steam workshop so the modders have an easier time modding.
even if it happens it will be same story as Rome, lazy port of mobile Med2
>the bloat is from upgraded unit skins and textures which is unavoidable if you want an old game to look halfway decent,
40gb of extra models just to make the game look 10% better at best, and far worse at worst?
>how the frick would you even type in gigabytes of code?
The problem is optimization. These morons would just jam 300+ mb horse models into the game.
>why should anybody make games for potato pcs anyway? as charity?
To have people play their games?
What a fricking stupid question, you hear that people want to buy and play your game and you go out of your way to make it especially unoptimized so they fricking can't? I guess there's no problem if you're making games as a hobby, but you're not. You're making them as a product, one that has to sell at least X amount to recoup losses.
but RR has good optimization. i can play the mods on the workshop with 70+ factions and the end turn times are faster than rome 2. stop playing on a potato pc.
The post is a satire you fricking moron, of course people don't want that.
M2: Remastered on the other hand is literally the only positive thing the Total War franchise has left in it.
All of this would cause chuds suffering and would therefore be welcome. If they are the definition of evil, and they are, then all pain inflicted on them is by default good.
Do you fricking Total War tards really need 5 threads talking about this garbage? Half of your spam threads are just Ganker shitposting.
As if the Paradrone threads weren't the same shit
>buh buh but what about
Every fricking time. Hey, I heard a paradoxgay jumped off a cliff, you better go do it too!
I ain't wishing for shit.
Fault shitty Valve recent in-acts for this one-
Ops sorry, you all still sucking Gaben´s tiny wiener, nevermind
>clean it up janny shitposts finally reached normalgay social spaces
>they piss off normalgays even harder than Ganker jannies that do it for free
hilarious
Honestly, the only thing I'm remotely interested in from CA (actually Feral) is the M2TW remaster. Total War is in terminal condition
CA is dying they don't have any money left and I doubt SEGA is willing to fund a remaster after the Rome 1 one failed to sell as well as they hoped.
2 more weeks now and sega and CA will be bankrupt for good
eat shit you miserable c**t
are you the guy that designed galaxia in hyenas?
>are you the guy that designed galaxia in hyenas?
no, im just tired of jaded doom posters that hate video games
CA fricked up, they fricked up before and will continue to do so, but saying total war is terminal or whatever when it's bringing in money (despite that money being wasted on shit like hyenas) is moronic
total war will be around for a long time, and CA wont go bankrupt from one controversy
>Total War is in terminal condition
have a nice day already you miserable c**t
I mean yeah, if they are going to pull that shit then they might as well not bother, I will stick with Stainless Steel then.
>>same old engine
Assuming you mean the current build of TWE3, otherwise we're fricked as TWE2 was dogshit
unit generals (with superpowers)
Good then the ai can function on a 3d map, and optional superpowers would be more good content
the lionheart turns into an actual lion
For pseudo-fantasy mode
to 3 buildings per city
Not gonna happen, just look at Warhammer, they bumped it up to 10 per city and multiple cities per region
>>no more infrastructure, farms, ports, economy tab, too complicated
Never gonna happen
>>3 factions on launch, England, France, HRE plus 1 pre order faction and snail armor reskin for french knights and they/them-at-arms
Plus 20 playable minor factions of Italian cities, Scandinavians, Iberian factions, Crusader states, and Slavs
units are the same just reskins
For shared units like Men-at-arms, but this time with unique details like shield coat-of-arms
>>pay $160 piecemeal to get the rest of the game
$60 to get rest of major factions like Ottoman Empire and the Golden Horde. $30 in unit packs, $50 in new campaigns and $20 for blood
doesn't have half the factions in M2
M2 doesn't have half the factions of M3? That's great news
>>map doesn't extend east past jerusalem
As in the region of greater Jerusalem right? So just like Medieval 1
is cut
Dlc bloat that deserves it's own game instead, or at least stand alone expansion
is cut
Saharan Africa is just 4+ turns between cities bloat anyways
>>your danish axemen are still black for some reason
Considering Denmark was known for slavery and sailing the Atlantic, it's not impossible. Unique hero unit btw
>>DLC blood
Imagine still being mad about this 14 years later
>>no more navies
Yeah it's medieval times, you recruit merchant ships for navies, but it hurts your economy if you do so too long
somehow worse
Worse than what? Medieval 2 had some of the worse anyways
has buffs, catholicism has debuffs
Compared to Medieval 2 where Catholic factions were over powered. Orthodox also get buffs, and can now launch their holy wars too
>>two agents types, imams and warriorkween assassins
Do you even play Total War games? They always have 3 agents, in this case priests, spies, and knights
Would pre-order if they did this, especially if they add back glorious achievements (possible pre-order bonus)
wow he made a post where he says everything to make everyone mad!
now that's epic!
what a troll master!
>op pwnd so hard he ragequit
Gonna ask in here since the historical Total War thread went somewhere. I finally got around to getting a campaign going in Medieval II for the first time last night as England, how do I peace out of wars in this game? I have half of Frances's provinces taken but they still won't quit, and now other countries have attacked me so I'm just stuck fighting everything west of the HRE because everyone keeps refusing my ceasefire proposals.
>peace out of wars
Hehehehe.
HEHEHEHEHEHEHE.
Real answer. The game has a bias toward to player and the more enemies you have the weaker you are perceived, which in turn cause other factions to wage war on you.
AI is generally too stubborn to be reasoned and you probably have a despicatable reputation anyway. You could give them back some regions and pay a hefty amount, but that's never worth it.
>how do I peace out of wars in this game
you dont
its total war, not total peace
90% of your actions in medieval 2 will snowball into negative reputation and endless wars
thanks for links
i actually found thanks to this video other that fix 2handers and pikes
>Be me
>Play Med2 after hearing for years its the best TW
>Clunky as hell
>Horrible IA
>Horrible pathfinding
>It takes ages for turn skip
>Absolutely dated in every sense of the word
Why do people say its the best tw when its actually absolute dogshit? Is it nostalgia? The only good things are the time period and civs to play as.
Everything you mentioned is true, but it's the only Total War to extend itself across two different eras (High Middle Ages and Renaissance), it has the best General trait mechanics and family trees, and anyone who hates the Warscape engine will insist that Medieval 2 is the peak of the old engines.
We're sort of in a "we cannot have our cake and eat it too" situation. Either you play a game that's objectively inferior in many regards to newer titles simply because those newer titles have access to some snowballing improvements, or you play a lobotomized version of Total War that won't let you play how you want to because of stupid shit like "all armies must have generals" or "no navies because frick you". Empire and Shogun 2 are kinda the only middle grounds, but they have their own problems.
tbh it feels like med 2 is a downgrade from og rome, nothing fricking work
funny thing it is like 13gb vs rome 3,5gb
med 2 is just big aussie shitpost
>It takes ages for turn skip
What the frick man, M2TW is super fast
the only people I ever seen playing med2 are because of lotr mods
EBII is better than those.
bump
