GUAN YU MAINS WHERE WE AT
TOTAL WAR THREE KINGDOMS
>game isnt even out yet and its already dead
Rome 2 all over again
>implying three chinkdoms will sell as well as the best selling tw of all time
3k is going to be more like thrones
You cant call it the best selling game when it single handedly killed the entire history series. Attila and Britannia tanked, 3K will as well, people got too burned by the disaster that was R2.
>more medieval shit but with EPIC heroes
yawn
Do you not know what Best selling means?
they have the right course, so the next game is going to be decent
Fucking Warhammer killed this series, they should've stuck to history instead of high fantasy trash. Now every game has retarded "special" units with OP abilities with fucking cooldowns and an absolute clusterfuck of a map. That and the nip jews at Sega with their shitty microtransactions.
Medieval 2 was the pinnacle and it's only gone downhill, such a shame.
Do you know what reading is? No obviously not so reply if you're a moron.
You know there is a historical gamemode where your generals are just normal dudes right?
It's a video game, loser.
>Fucking Warhammer killed this series
>Coming from Rome-literally-almost-killed-CA-2
Kek, fantasy literally SAVED TW.
You're welcome :^)
He doesn't hes just retarded.
How's Rome 2 & Attila?
Last TW I've played was Shogun and that was pretty cool
>let's postpone it again, maybe more people will have preordered in 5 months
Thats romance of three kingdoms fucking retard thats how it works is not "realistic". Educate yourself.
Don't EVER reply to me or my wife's son again, faggot.
>Game isn't out yet
>Devs does streaming the early game
>800 people watching the stream
>Most of them asking for Total Warhammer 3
No no no
>Total Warhammer 3
Oh yes i really want to pay another full game price for a dlc. MMM i love sucking cocks.
People who asks for tw3 should be gutted.
>Imperator:Rome tanked
>Total War:TK tanked
I guess grand strategy is going the way of RTS
Rome 2 is still shit. Attila is actually really good and the best recent TW game apart from warhams.
Enjoy paying $60 for your glorified DLC, faggot.
>Make a cash grab for the Chinese market
>Surprised the West ignores it
Whoever is running CAs history department needs to be made into history.
but user Rome 2 literally was the best selling game in the series whether or not it was a great game or killed the series.
Jokes on you fag I already have and loved every second of it :^)))
>Make a cash grab for the Chinese market
It's going to be banned in China lol you aren't allowed to depict anything from their imperial history over there
Fucking retard
The game looks terrible, even the fantasy games are better than this POS. Hope it flops like I:R maybe these companies will finally learn something.
It wont get banned they are making it explicitly for them. They will just change the game to suit the Chinese laws.
What killed the series was CA itself. Every new game they remove some mechanics or make them more "automatic".
what you don't get is that you saved the wrong fucking thing. you saved warscape engine. yeah thanks, no really we're so fucking grateful.
You can deplicit fantasy about their imperial history. Ffs the game is based on one of the most famous books in china and there are litterally thousands of tv series, movies and adaptation of the romance of the three kingdoms.
>Muh censored
Educate yourself mutt.
Looks dreadful, CA post shogun 2 is trash, excluding the fantasy series that is
Its a massive cost in creating a new engine then retraining everyone to use it as opposed to using a modified old one, and after the flop of Rome 2 they couldnt really afford to fuck around so really its your fault historyfags.
retard
>Have a holy cash cow (tww)
>Proceed to ignore it and release chinkgames
Fuck you so much
kek this
>Proceed to ignore it and release chinkgames
And Rome 2 DLC. And Thrones of Britannia. And another Saga game. And a new FPS IP.
Did they delay it AGAIN? When was the original release date?
Why is it that the games need an ssd to play, what actually makes the battles take so long to load. Everytime I think about it it I just want to play shogun 2 since it runs and plays so well.
Imagine being this much of a retarded burger.
it's like they hate money
I'm more of a Lu Su main myself
Wasn't it february, then april, then may?
Don't forget hiring so many people they are officially bigger than motherfucking Rockstar.
Why is this game £50?
How are they ignoring it you retard?
>modern CA
lmao, they're only good for milking TardHammer goys dry.
>when people would rather play with rats than the chinese
>niche games trying to appeal to broader audiences, losing their core audience in the process
You might be right user
This shit just makes me sad they look like nice people
Its just their games are dogshit
>make shit games that goes against niche market whims and tries to appeal to mainstream market that doesn't give a shit about it
>WTF why doesn't it sell, the genre is dead
Warhammer has no Araby.
They couldve milked way more not even mentioning the wait for some factions to be finally added
KEK
>that left blonde trying to hide her ass

>That emo looking bitch on the left
I to would hate working for CA
Youtube is banned in China. Even if it's just a minor hit in Chinkland, their population is huge enough to make up for alienating western audiences.
The spy system of this game is WELL above what any past game can do, and probably will be used in future games except Warhammer. They brought back marriages and family tree, and made it important. Everything about the campaign map seems good again, but I do believe armies can only exist if a general is attached like Rome 2 and on.
aaaaaaaaah Sima Yi help me
Yeah no, the Chinese have their own TW ripoffs they play. Alienating your entire history base for 'maybe' making some money from China was a mistake from day 1.
aaaaaghh.....
DA DU DU
>SEGA and CA want the Chinkie market
>China have a law that make illegal the representation of ancient Chinese history and Imperial China
>Alienating your entire history base
That already happened with shithammer and Thrones though.
They would not have worked so damn hard on the chinese bootlicking if they weren't sure they could release this game to the chinese. You people thinking this game is somehow going to get banned where there are thousands of fucking Three Kingdoms media in China are retards.
B-BUT WE RELEASED STRONK WOMYN DLC DON'T YOU LIKE THAT?
That's because most of Three Kingdoms is literally fiction
user she's showing off her britannia shirt like the rest of the group

>you aren't allowed to depict anything from their imperial history over there
I see you albino tranny are repeating the same Fake News again.
You must think Dynasty Warriors games don't sell in China.
do they?
and pirated CD don't count
>4/25
>4/4
Yikes. I can cherrypick, too.
Why isn't this Medieval III?
Who gives a fuck about china?
Yes, even considering pirated CDs.
you're actually retarded then.
Was this guy the only voice of reason in their army? I watched it few years ago and really liked this guy
People with taste.
Can you pursue Lu Bu in this?
Warhammer is by far the best TW has ever been mechanically though.
It makes historytrash look like a fucking mobile game
>PR team
>developer
because Lu Su wasn't an idiot and knew that a Southland feuding with a growing in power Liu Bei faction was never going to blunt advance of the steamroller that was Cao Cao. Lu Su was also generally held up to be a really smart, really kind and all around great guy who wanted the best for everyone.
However, human nature prevailed and most of the Southland didn't trust Liu Bei, rightfully so.
CAN ANYBODY PROVIDE ME WITH A DECENT CHALLENGE
Yes my dear Buposter. You have to do some shit inside the game to find him but you can recruit him.
>mechanically though
It lacks most of the tw mechanics but yeah why not.
IRL no but he was still unironically one of THE most benevolent guys in all of the period and legit would rather not get soldiers killed for irrelevant shit etc
Wu had many ''voice of reason'' type guys but they all die when the actual era known as three kingdom began because most people were either old or sick
Lü Meng wasnt a hotheaded dumbfuck but both a really smart and humanitarian scolar and a fucking shounen hero
Both Sun's before quan were also really smart shounen heroes too,what's with the south and damn anime characters?
Also a few history facts,Shu was never actually stronger than Wu,BUT they did reach a really similar height of power at one point.Most of their victories are either straight up bullshit or overblown.Shu had some brilliant minds and all but most of the people in there were quite literal bandits with no discipline etc.
When playing as Dong Zhou's faction there is an event chain you can follower where Lu Bu assassinates him and takes the faction over.
Can I starve my empire by the millions?
>3 generals per army
>no unit caps despite this feature being nearly universally praised in recent TWs
>towns non-customisable
>provinces have the least building slots of any TW game ever
>buildings in each city slot no longer visualised on campaign map (to be confirmed)
>DOUBLE UNIT CARDS
>Unit cards can't be moved around
>Units cards that literally look like placeholder art
>can't abandon territory for all factions except 1
>no unit upgrades (like higher quality armor etc.)
>instant siege ladders
>no naval
>no agents (somewhat compensated for with other mechanics)
>no sanitation or fertility
You're mistaken, this is TW:3K, not Hearts of Iron 4.
>no shield
>60% projectile block chance
nothin' personnel, kid
Only if you play as shu in the historical mode :^)
Reminder that the last good TW game was Shogun 2, and before that Medieval 2. CA has lost all talent and ambition, even Warhammer TW is ONLY enjoyable because of the vast unit variety given by the setting (which isn't even that great, you'll notice rather soon that a lot of stuff is just the same big monster with a different model), as far as the rest of the mechanics go it's extremely dumbed down and bland. Almost surely most of the original talent is no longer around, what you're left with is a bunch of low skill retards trying to maintain a progressively more unmaintainable engine that they don't have the skills to properly patch up, let alone improve on. Their "programmers" are likely the same that pushed for women in TW recently, which they are very good at unlike actual work such as improving the pathfinding. CA is a sinking ship, the only reason they are still afloat is due to the lack of direct competition, but that is also the reason they allowed themselves to start sinking in the first place.
See: youtu.be
>TW is getting getting simplified with each new release
You don't fucking say
Fuck off Cao Cao.
I can't wait to put your head on a spike in this.
Can't wait to spread some BENEVOLENCE across the land
>people actually enjoyed Medieval 2
Yuck.
Maybe in Hong Kong, the one city with any freedom at all.
The rest of the mud-shack rice farmers are too busy making iphones and fentanyl for whites to OD on, to actually play any video games.
Poo-bear looking president bitch-boi can suck my white cock. So can the rest of the fascists. The chinese government arrests young communist groups because they talk too much about workers right. Seems pretty weird that a communist government would silence communist groups. (Because china isn't a communist country, they're a fascist autocratic oligarchy)
Holy fuck chinese sounds so awful.
I dunno user I know the esteemed Kongming and I have different ideas on ''starving own troops to death'' and ''defeat'' but no need to be so rude.
I also look forward to his new invention,wheelbarrow xz2.
eternal reminder

>4.5% dislike to like
shit game is shit
Let's go boi
Does it have custom kingdom or i can only play as designated general
youtube.com
Nah it sounds fine, better than Eng dubs in TW3K.
I was excited for a Total War 3 kingdoms when I very first heard about it. Then learned they are doing the fantasy thing with hero generals and my excitement is out the window. Trying too combine a feature that fits extremely well in their other game (Warhammer) with historical setting is just lazy game design, instead of coming up with unique and fitting features.
The source material is literally chinese fantasy, based on real life events. Where do you think Lu Bu is coming from, of course the special characters in this game are demigods.
Veteran rome 1 and BI player here.
Rome 2 is fucking shit, Attila corrected its mistakes but it is fucking complex. It is like playing Rome 1 with ultra realism mods.
Oh? So it's a communist wonderland and everyone is happy with all the resources they need to be fully self-actualized?
By all means, tell me what it's actually like.
I'm not defending the west, btw, and I'm not saying the west is much better. But chinese folks are horribly brain-washed if they think their greedy oligarchs are any more noble than the ones in the west.
It sounds like shit.
The trailer for a new game gets more views than a dlc trailer for an existing game? That's crazy.
>spending 60 euros to fight for the land of communism
why are people doing this
I've avoided Rome 2 but Attila is pretty fucking good, albeit with some rough edges.
I'd suggest getting a mod for the AI to recolonize ruined provinces more; in my Leg run i was totally alone in central Europe by mid-game which was pretty anticlimactic.
What is the best TW?
>there's no thing called in between unless I'm called out and even then it only goes to defend places I defend
Your perception of countries you think you know come from the mouths that want you to feel that way and your vision from whatever filter they put for you,why bother arguing about stuff you dont actually know about?
Because it's not communism in that era and you can always play as wu which didnt want to be china :^)
>Veteran rome 1
Are we really considered veterans for having played Rome 1 now? Are there that many goddamn zoomers around?
>hurdur I don't know what I'm saying but still keep trashtalking gibberish anyway
Yep, except it sells decent enough in mainland China and Taiwan, HK's market is too small to be relevant, also about 2/3 of reviews of DW9 on Steam are in Chinese.

No thanks
kill yourself please
what were they fucking thinking
The majority of this thread and the vast majority who have played the last 3 TWs and that will play 3K likely started with Shogun 2 or Total Warhammer. So yes, someone having started with Rome 1 is probably in the minority, even here.

WH2 and Shogun 2
>game set in china
>woooow there are chinese
At least the southerners had lots of southern tribes mixed into them,you can pretend to be mongol/turks with them
Time moves, my dude. It's been 14 years and i doubt most of the current fanbase has played Rome 1, let alone the older games.
Med 1 is the best TW
Did you get mad about Shogun 2 too?
Medieval 2, edges out Rome 1 due to mods. Of the more recent ones, Shogun 2.
>WH2
Kill yourself, WH TW are awful.
>Medieval 2.
>good
it wasn't, sure it get some good mods later on but even then it was clusterfuck with shitty mechanic
Medieval 1 and Shogun 1 was much better(even only for massive battles and risk style map)
shit opinion is shit.
>28% dislike to like wh2
Wouldn't the same be true of the Chinese people? For all they know, The US really is MUCH better than their country. And I'm will to bet that's true.
I really don't buy what you're selling. A country with the great firewall, a country with a social credit system, and a country with government control of business is NOT a good country. And those are FACTS about china.
It's a shitstain facist country that sucks donkey nuts. Just like Russia. By all means, cope harder faggot. Chinese people live in hell, and they've been brain-washed to believe it's "Just as bad" everywhere else.
I work like 5 hours a day and make 6 figures. I own land and guns. I personally have access to the finest things in the world and I'm merely a middle class american, I'm not even "rich". You literally couldn't do that in China.
>Shogun 2
No because shogun 2 didn't have the same retarded army system of rome 2 onward. It is stupid and I hate it.
Did you even watch three kingdoms my guy? What possesses you to make shit up like this on 4channel.org
M2 may not have been great compared to the previous ones, but it's great compared to anything that came after with maybe the exception of Shogun 2.
user you are continuing to do the same thing again
No that's not how they see their country or yours just like your perception is different than theirs.How hard is it to grasp?People who grew in different systems can be content with their systems and dislike others,guess what,that's what you are doing right now.
You are boasting about stuff your culture boasts about and that way of life and I'm pretty sure this is the mindset of a 12 year old or an autist who simply can't perceive simple concepts
This

Rome 1 is also great(thanks to amazing mods), both shoguns are fine, empire is sadly fucked up even if I love theme
>no pike and musket Total war game outside total warhammer
Why are you so mad china-boy. Is it because of your little yellow penis and lack of good women?
Move to a good country instead of living in an ant farm with the rest of mindless bugmen. Everyone hates the chinese and "made in china" is the mark of shit quality.
Ahaha good riddance histfags. This is /our/ franchise now, I even have all WH2 and WH1 dlcs and consider myself a good goyim! Looking forward to three flopdoms.
I bought it. I never did preorder CA's stuff before, but having watched the newer streams it seems they fixed up some of the glaring AI shit the enemies had earlier. Now they try to flank you and take advantage of your weakness, which is a nice sign. I just wanna relive Kingdom manga, albeit in a different period.
>yet another "new" total war game that's just another reskin
it had good theme- duh knights and crusaders, good mods but too many unfixed bugs and bad mechanics
Why isn't this on Epic Store?
I found Empire to be alright with mods but the tiny provinces really killed it for me.
There is the thirty years war mod for medieval 2 you might like. Pike and shot warfare.
Someone posted that unitcaps were increased,how big of an increase was that?What else did they show after the last delay?
There's also this,I guess.
Is that what they teach you in China to make sure your brainwashing sticks?
See, in my country, we're taught to think for ourselves. I criticize my own country plenty.
Are you too mentally deficient to objectively criticize your own country?
Poor, poor chinaman. Truly, the chinese people have lost any ability to think critically. I feel bad for the chinese, they'll only ever live half a life.
Medieval 2 or Warhammer 2, with Shogun 2 as a close runner up.
>Pike and shot warfare
problem is the med 2 engine is completly unsuitable for it
on the other hand if it was on shogun 2 engine... sadly no modding aloowed9on that scale)
>spewing gibberish horseshit
>got smacked refuted.
You should stop self-projecting, nigga.
Nope, it sounds fine.
>med 2 engine is completly unsuitable for it

Nod an argumenndd,but for your sake I'll say this is false either way.

But that setting exists on other games.
I wish KOEI would make good ROTK games again.
ROTK 8/10 are among my all time favorite games.
I already have bought 4 total war games and never played one and I'm still interested in this. Fuck me, I will never get into this series.
As a formation, yeah. I think that's specific to that unit that it can have half men fighting as melee and half shooting as archers.
>The US really is MUCH better
Nope. Not at all.
A country with PRISM program, a country with global warmongering system, hundreds of oversea military bases and endlessly global conflicts, and a country with government funded LGBT degeneracy, rampant Feminazism, faggot marriage, narcotic legalization movement, encouraging 6 year-old boys to have estrogen and people go to jails for not selling cakes to faggots is NOT a good country. Which is USA.
Either you don't know what a zoomer is or when did rome 1 release.
Rome 1 is fucking ancient. I'm 28 years old and I was playing Rome 1 when I was a child.
No zoomer played anything before FOTS in their childhood.
HISTORICAL TOTAL WAR GOOD
TOTAL WARHAMMER GOOD
FITE ME
Liu Bei is fucking retarded. He is right that his son is nothing special and that one of his most talented warriors is far more valuable but his demonstrations just shows that he is a cold chinese leader like everyone else. His most loyal man risked his life to rescue his son, it's already done. But all he does is throw the hard work that was done into the trash just as he did with his son. Fuck Liu Bei and fuck niggers.
little chinese weiners make yellow-bois mad.

I will always call out the chinese. They have let a great culture devolve into a disgusting mess. I admired their culture and philosophy before they turned into communists. The great learning and works of mencius are very good. Why can't their shitty country move back to that?
Like I said, I'll always be here to shit all over the ugly chinese country, culture, and people. They're truly revolting. It'll never stop, the chinese will find that this will start happening everywhere they go, because other people also see what I see.
in 4 hours i'll get back from work, turn on my shitbox, play frostpunk, have fun and there's literally nothing you can do about it
>another hist shit game instead of more fantasy
At least it's Three Kingdoms shit
A-user
That scene isn't real
The soldier who brought him and his wife didnt walk through fire and flames either, it was literally a stroll with both of them after the battle was over
That soldier wasnt a speshul person or something too, literally just a step above a made up person
Liu Bei was an oppurtunistic piece of shit that literally acted as bandits for years, Zhang Fei was a kiddy diddler who kidnapped a little girl and raped her constantly and would beat his own men, Guan Yu was so arrogant that even the last few episodes of him was a better version of him than the real one,Zhuge Liang possibly caused more Shu soldier deaths than any Wei officer did, claimed he invented a fuckton of shit that existed before, bullied and took power from one of their actual good generals, maybe the best, because he disliked the fella but he kinda worked hard on governing subjects so Shu did owe kongming a lot nevertheless
i like to think that toss was the reason his son is dumb as fuck
Uhh, yeah, the US is also better than china militarily. Thanks for pointing out how limp dicked and useless the chinese people are yet again.
I guess chinese "men" are to pussified to ever own a gun personally and your government can't even defend the china sea from the philippines. LOL, chinese limp wristed losers have no power at all.
for the sake of an infant he nearly lost a good man :(
lads is britania decent?
you just know their next historical title will be Medieval 3 because this one will sell like shit
I'm talking about him in the series. Literally no one cares about the people the fictional characters are based on.
No it sounds like shit. Chinese is an awful language to listen to.
I'll always call westerners shitheaps with no real culture because that's what they are, mud dwellers whose biggest accomplishments were getting fucked and throwing rocks at the other westerners
They wouldnt even call superior forces on their borders westerners but they now sit on their cultures, claiming it as their own.Westerners are a menace, and revolting to the boot.They take their superiority complex and their deceitful culture everywhere they go.
I don't think it's that great. The real time battles are good, but they're really shitting the bed with their overworld maps lately. It doesn't feel like you have any options to customize a city.
This user is correct. Chinese sounds like absolute trash.
shogun 1 was fun
rome 1 is fucking awful withour mods
vanilla mtw 2 is so fucking awful with its bugs
Empire was a mess but had so much potenial
Nappy was great
Shogun 2 was great l, Ikko Ikki or kys

Yeah, thanks for doing the work with the smallest margins that makes the least amount of money retard. (I shouldn't expect communist chinese retards to understand economics)
You're like the people who think the chinese are winning because they put together the most smartphones. Meanwhile, the smart phones your retard assembly line robot bugmen put together are built using parts made by samsung and intel.
The west is using your country for our dirty work while we extract the wealth out you for our own gain. You can have 20 cents per smartphone you sell, while we make hundreds of dollars selling you the parts you need to build them.

Unironically one of only interesting general fights and sadly it didnt happen
Both started as mere soldiers and fought for years but in the end true winner would be Zhang Liao, who personally fought against tribe men in snowy mountains when he was mid 60's and won
Well that depends on the region or dialect.
Don't come to Austria,EVERYONE talks like a gay cartoon character in this god forsaken land
In Total War sure. But a lot of what I see from other Grand Strategy games includes straight up mechanics

But who is the strongest little faggot? Sure isn't China.
>>he believes it is a bubble because he doesnt actually understand economics
Do you? China is literally a false economy propped up by US policies created 20 years ago. If China wasn't in Africa they would have already had a recession.

America is the strongest by american metrics about america's stregths, that's not how it works
You forgot europe too,but how's that relevant to the question?Does the question of who prepped the bull even matter?
>x would be in a bad predicament if y wasnt a thing
That can be written to fit possibly every economy in the world though.
Surely you must realize that if your argument keeps coming down to: "Bu-but, your countries only the best according to America's strengths."
, you don't actually have an argument.
America is the strongest according to everyone else's metrics too.
>America is the strongest by american metrics about america's stregths, that's not how it works
It's really pathetic you have to keep saying variations of this. I don't ever see Americas saying this about other countries.

user, I'll agree they might go over the top eventually, but right now I appreciate the fact that it's more content on the battlefield. I mean really, without stuff like this you're either attack moving your force against theirs or you're waiting for their forces in a pike wall.
The ideal would maybe be improving their retarded AI which would also enable them to make actually interesting maps with terrain that doesn't make the AI spazz, but not like that's ever gonna happen because that's not where the quick buck is.
>inb4 replying to decade old post
I wanted to throw in my five cents.
It's a decent game for a few hours. Nothing to write home about, it's a play once and forget kind of experience.
not true, attila saves the series.
Warhammer was just a cash grad for the warhammer s o i boys
>all those dumb cocksuckers who thought the amazon jungle with aztec pyramids and periodic dinosaur noises was a teaser for Total War China
>no naval
>a bad thing
it has never been more than a tagged on minigame, I don't know of any good naval games but it'll never be this one. Cutting their losses with Warhammer and China Wars was the better way to go.
*saved
>american education
Meh, I'll stick with Warhammer for now
Not that idiot, but DW is only officially sold in Hong Kong.
China? In Africa?
friendly reminder that Rome II was to date the most successful TW game. There were basically the same amount of warhammer dlcs and rome II dlcs last year.
And you should know what that means.
Warhammer sold well because it was something new, Warhammer II is a low quality full priced add-on, that hasn't sold as much, because otherwise CA would have made more Dlc's for it and Warhammer III would come out earlier.
The only hardcore fans Ca has at the moment, are the few reddit and /tg/ nerds who circlejerk eachother in their echo chamber.
Just wait for Medieval III, because then the Franchise will get its peak.
which mechanics?
It just plays like a more boring version of medieval II, but which ugly moba magic and useless flying units (who fight 95% of the time like any other unit on the ground).
It just a lot of bling bling without any depth or soul
And good riddance histcuck, after the killing Warhammer made CA will never look at your faggots with the same endearment again. Nobody likes to play your copy+paste spearmanii diarrhea.
Tie between Rome with IB, and MII with stainless steel
Yeah you just keep spewing this gender-fluid /pol/tarded garbage. China is in Africa since cold war era(60s ~ now), and US also has established connection with PRC since 70s(to deal with USSR). Idiot.

Shogun 2 was trash, apart from FotS which was the best release sing Medieval 2

What's with Chinese Warlords having incompetent sons?
You tell me.

You are fucking late, I'm 26 and I played AOE Shogun 1 when I was a brat, so he is right for saying Rome 1 cannot be consider as veteran
>watch
>Wu had many ''voice of reason'' type guys but they all die when the actual era known as three kingdom began because most people were either old or sick
Now that you bring it up I realize it's actually true. Shame they were really held up only by inhospitable terrain neither Shu-Han nor Wei could really survive in.
I bet it runs like shit and is full of dlc
They should have done total warhammer 40k ffs. 40k would make a great total war series.
Total War isn't autistic either, it's a pretty casual strategy game
I miss the first Medieval. It was basically improved Shogun in every way, with tons more thought put into everything. Also, that simple Risk map was perfect.
Is it weird that combat was never the main draw for me in the series? I see so many autismos getting all invested in combat and series has only suffered for it because game design became subservient to MP balance.
Rome 1 is best classic
WH2 and FOTS are best overall
did warhammer actually sell more than rome 2?
Probably not. Might have made more on DLC since people seem to actually want what's in them
ROTK13 wasn't bad. You just really really need PUK to make it better. Kinda weird to see they focused so much on Nobunaga's Ambition and not ROTK14.
If you count both warhammers then probably, but otherwise no.
Didn't the last total wars came like 4 months ago.....
The last was Thrones of Britannia and it came out nearly a year ago.
ToB should really worry people. Wasn't it basically a glorified Attila DLC?
Should I buy this game? I enjoyed Medieval 2 and Rome 1 are my favourite and I've been buying Total War games since forever but Warhammer made me stop because I did not like it at all, will I like Three Kingdoms do you guys think?
>Kinda weird to see they focused so much on Nobunaga's Ambition and not ROTK14.
Nobunaga is just a much bigger household name than ROTK.
Nobunaga is basically the Japanese equivalent of Civilisation. ROTK is closer to HoMM and the like.
>nearly a year ago
well fuck time really goes by
The Three Kingdoms is a great setting and you're a faggot if you don't appreciate it.
>Wow why do you pay so much for Total War: Warhammer and its DLCs?!
Because I play every DLC for hundreds of hours, more than I would a full-priced AAA game (which I don't buy). What is wrong with this?
The series lost me as soon as it started doing faction DLC. Miss me with that gay shit.
bronze age tw fucking when?
this
Nothing. They're free to price content however they want. Problem is you'll never see a decent discount considering its age so it becomes a barrier to entry with time.
OH NO NO NO
In the hellscape of microtransactions and cosmetic dlc kikery galore that is modern gaming, it really isn't so bad.
this gonna be a dlc fest?
>another unreadable total war game
>there's at least a 1% chance they picked China so they could do a FOTS/Atila tier expansion for the Taiping Rebellion
it'll all be worth it then
It's going to be THE worst, I think. So many warlords they could add to the game the number of DLC is essentially endless.
renaissence total war when? youtu.be
>hurrr poke each other with long sticks
Nah, looks boring af
retard
Have you considered that maybe it isn't chinese pandering and Three Kingdoms China is just a really cool setting to work with?
why is the loli so sad?
As much as I want gunpowder units in 3k I don't think its going to happen.
>something requires coordination and teamwork
>huuuuuur looks boring
Let me guess, you're a lone wolf with a katana.
Imagine being so poor you hate the best game in the series. That's just sad. As expected of kids who hasn't gotten a credit card yet.
I don't want another Rome 2 thank you.
nuCA should pump out goyhammer DLCs and nether touch the good series again.
Too rich, too complex, too brilliant.
I fell like going real time is a step in the right direction, I hated having to wait a minute every turn to wait for everyone else, but the issue now is that resource building is way too fucking slow I pirated the base version years ago but I've been thinking of buying it with PUK
Aren't most of those games untranslated? Any good ones in English?
>Watch the 2010 tv series
>Think Guan Yu is cool as shit
>Half way through he becomes a completely unlikable retard

It's the same guys! Kys
Why is she sad when she has a cute quacker?
holy shit americans are so dumb
Most of them are translated, the problem is that the expansions for nearly every single game are not. Romance 13 is the sole exception I believe, you can pick up both on Steam, during a sale it's usually $40-50 last I checked for both.
The recommendations aside from 13 are usually 7/8 or 10, keeping in mind a lot of people play the games that let you play as a random officer or wanderer rather than just a ruler. They all have their unique quirks and flaws. Some people recommend 11 as the best game for ruler play but I find it to be overbearing on the kind of logistics autism that defines Koei grand strategy games, having to manually move caravans to keep most of your cities from starving, going bankrupt or not having any weapons gets tiring.
you know steam is banned in china, right? Every chinese person using steam is on a vpn.
Nothing wrong at all
I wouldn't say gunpowder, but 3K actually has explosive arrows for some reason, used by a unit called Defenders of Earth, a thousand years before it was invented by the Song Dynasty.
Honestly you have to be a complete fucking retard to give CA your money at this point.
those arrow trails are retarded
I prefer the thinner ones than the complete lightshow in warhammer. Wood Elf arrow trails are the worst. At least theres a mod there that makes the arrows similar to Shogun 2.
brainlet
The flaming ones look better since they can actually light the ground on fire like in Attila
Is there anything better than BTFO historycucks? Literally losing in their own hobby
>implying I'll ever buy a CA product again after they went full SJW
what did they do?
Go easy on him, he's a fantasycuck
Female generals for barbarian tribes in Rome 2.
Based toy soldiers addict.
oh, right, welp.
Yeah not like one of the most expensive Chinese TV shows is literally Romance of the three kingdoms which is preddy great and everyone should watch it btw
i would but i can't stand spoken chinese
making OC fat women generals, forcing woman generals into historical games like Rome 2 or Three Kingdoms, Desert Kweendomz, Daughters of Mars unit pack etc etc
i aint touching another TW until they bring back synchronized combat
warhammers were fun tho.
You'll get used to it. I used to fucking hate it until I watched some dramas and video games (AoE3) where the mandarin is drastically slowed down so you can at least make out what theyre saying. This is like how nihongo sounds different in anime compared to when people speak it irl where they're just mumbling down the words.
sauce on webm bro
How about TOTAL WAR: AGE OF SMEGMAR?
There's matched combat. Well, sort of.
>not lu buing it and forcing every enemy general you face to 1 vs 1 you in every battle
Hmmmmmm
I have a soft spot for 11 due to the presentation and music but it does get pretty tedious once you've amassed a bunch of provinces, even with viceroys.
Maybe after TWW3 comes out
why they didn't made flashy combats on horseback?
it weirded me out to see generals fight on foot at first sight
They got some shitty english voice actor mispronouncing all the chink names. Why would anyone buy this shit? At least in shogun 2 they had nip speaking actors.
They changed how duels work now. Commanders will rarely duel you, strategists can't duel at all, dueling sentinels is a waste of time since it only prolongs a fight when you could just kill him normally, and champions will only duel you if they have a chance of winning.
There's a chinese language option if I remember right.
All i was is a mod that changes the voice lines to DW3 lines
There's a chinese dub user.
twitch.tv
that sounds dumb as hell
General reminder: Shu wasn't worth shit without Huang Zhong, Wei Yan and Fa Zheng. Three based as fuck mother fuckers who did not give a shit what history, nay Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang thought of them. (and even that doesn't redeem them or validate them)
Fuck Guan Yu, Liu Bei, Zhang Fei, Zhuge Liang, Liu Shan and especially Ma Chao. They were all lazy incompetent power hungry cowardly monsters who killed the innocent to take influence.
Wei was and is STILL the greatest side of the three. Cao Cao was the fucking man.
NO ZHOA YUN NO BUY
It looks fine.
But Cow Cow didn't have benevolence!
It's a response to complaints in Warhammer where LLs got cool fighting animations but you never see them because most LLs are better with mounts and by the time you fight another LL, theres no reason to fight on foot. The only reason its in 3K is because the game was developed with dismounting, while Warhammer does not.
>Less units and less soldiers per units
this is just not true though
He's in the game, but under Gongsun Zan.
M:TW was the last great Total War game, R:TW was the last good Total War game, and E:TW was the last playable Total War game. If you still play this trash series you are literally worse than blizzdrones.
>warhammer fans literally play with plastic toy soldiers and are proud of their shitty Lotr rip off setting
OH NO NO
The show was completely dubbed in Japanese if that is your only problem.
youtube.com
>Gongsun Zan
fug.
there's literally a separate mode without the fantasy hero generals, making them exactly like they have been in all the other games you fucking mongoloids.
who even knows how to pronounce chinkese? Why that would be a deal breaker to anyone is beyond my comprehension.
It's not like the generals are strong anymore anyway. A lot of streams showed players getting their generals killed all the time because they forgot it's not warhammer where an empire captain can tank a horde of greenskins.
Also, the game has an option gives you an Attila style lighting. It looks neat imo and I'm also glad they brought back the dynamic dirt from Attila where fighting in the mud and rain will put some dirt on your soldier's clothes.
Anyone who's watched 3 kingdoms for example. It's very immersion breaking to hear the names being butchered. Same thing with english dubs of anything Japanese.
Shogun 2 is quite literally the last "playable" game. Empire just has too many unpatched game breaking bugs, exploits and ai behavior. Sadly so, because I love the setting so much.
I wish they had focused more on improving the authenticity of the battle simulation and made it possible for battles to big bigger and more strategic etc, but they choose to go for baby-tier gsg shit mixed with adhs e-sports fuckery battles instead. I pray that Chink-Kingdoms fails massively. CA deserves to go bankrupt.
Why are you dumb, user? If you make at least 100k+,then how can you have such a narrow viewpoint and poor education? Read some wise men, mate.
Chinese are brainwashed and they think they live much better life than most of the world. They also have America in their pocket, so enjoy sucking your yellow overlords'and mini-dicks. USA is not a number 1 country for some time.
Actually its more a rip off of half remembered history lessons with some tolkein sprinkled in.
it's doa. they were angling for the china market and it's been slammed shut in their face
It's no different from French.
And campiness is one thing, but this game is definitely not going for a campy style. Imagine Medieval: Total War where you hear of Jean (as in jeans) of Arc or other similar bullshit.
good thing you can turn them off then
certainly not USA with their slave-driven economy, because you can't say that employees in your shit country have a good life.
>pay
Fucking retard, end yourself and never come back to this board
Honestly I'm just sick of buying Paradox games and having to wait 2 years and get a dozen DLC for the games to be good. Yes, they release a lot of free content and they keep updating their games, but after Stellaris, EUIV, and CK2 I can't keep doing this shit. If they actually released games like Imperator with some depth from the start I might start buying their games again.
I hope it succeeds. It's the one TW title that finally brings back unit formations that has been MIA in the games since Med2, along with a whole bunch of other stuff that people purposely keep ignoring for muh mobile UI and other outdated complaints.
I'm going to expand Dong
The ass was fat, checked
>it's doa. they were angling for the china market
Nah. Chinese market is Chinese market. They'd go with RoTK style if they wanted Chinese to love the game, but they did not (instead going with half Dynasty Warriors half Redcliff interpretation of the era). They never even promoted the game properly in Asia.
Never understood the thick minded folks who think formation based TW gameplay would work with warfare post 19th century.
We have other proven formulas and engines for that.See company of heroes/dawn of war/MOW for squad tactical based style, or Wargame/Combat Mission/Theatre of war/World in conflict for bigger strategic battles.
40k is much better suited to a wargame/steel division style mass battle game.
Total war is completely incompatible with post 1900 warfare.
so THATS what happened to britania game
even if it doesnt I hope they add those banners to warhammer total war, as dlc for 2 or as a feature in 3.
I miss MoW, the modern thing just wasn't the same.
It actually managed to reach the chinese top sellers. It was also number 2 in china before it was delayed last february. It's even gotten the attention of a chinese animator who worked for MonHun to start a modding project to make the girls look cute.
tieba.baidu.com
that post clearly isn't /pol/. /pol/ actually know what they are talking about.
Forgot pic
Why did you take a picture and not a screenshot?
I wish people would stop asking for more soldiers per unit, this definitely breaks the game because of AI pathfinding has always been bad in TW games and higher soldier counts within a unit exacerbates the issue.
They need to finally allow for 40 unit armies but less soldiers per unit, I've also noticed that with higher soldier counts cavalry become worse because I'll always get cavalry units lagging behind when I try to cycle charge.
Not my pic. But you can see the currency is in RMB.
Oh gosh golly gee I sure cant wait for more unjustifiable DLC and anti-consumer bullshit like hiding bug fixes behind DLC paywalls making vanilla a late-game campaign killer again!
Fuck CA.
Steam doesn't order these things according to sales and shit. They hide all of that and largely shuffle them.
Don't be like those idiots catching glimpses of Battletech ahead of Frostpunk and assumed they sold more, refusing to listen to reason.
In the end, a certain Steam leak happened and revealed that while Frostpunk sold some 750k, Battletech was happy to have 200k.
The game already has the most units in a TW game as of late anyway. With Extreme unit sizes, most early battles number in 5-7k battles. You could only achieve this in Shogun 2 when playing ultra sizes as the Ikko Ikki
How about maybe fixing the pathfinding thats been absolute dogshit since the start of the franchise instead of lessening the only thing that made these things worth buying?
Britannia is fine, it's just really boring. The selections for factions all have already a sizeable territory which makes town management a pain, there is an incentive to turtling and they got rid of the really dope faction selection screen of Atilla. In my opinion the faction selection screen is perhaps the most well thought out component of Atilla along with that mongolian throat singing in the background.
*aehm* fuck fantasy fags
>Chinese FOTS
That's not what I'm talking about, that's what I'm against. I'm talking about the amount of units you can bring into a battle, the default is 20 with a Shogun II mod you can push that up to 40 and the UI will allow it but CA fucked it so you can't do that anymore because of all their stupid UI changes.
240 soldiers within a single unit will definitely get stuck on simple shit like rocks, it makes positioning in towns a fucking nightmare.
Marketing teams typically take credit for being part of the development of games, regardless of what their tshirts say.
>still no nippon faction in warhammer with the announcer ripped straight from shogun 2
SHAMEFUL DISPLAY
Just saying that that the chinese are at least aware of the game. Of course it will never beat Overwatch or S4 there, but I'm sure it's safe to say that there is a market for the chinese there for Total War since the only alternative is Koei's RoTK.
I realized lately that the charge bonus is added to atk and def when charging, and lasts several seconds, makes no dachi samurai dead in the water when this hidden timer runs out.
I'm going to create a kingdom of benevolence
Ah, a fellow Dong Zhuo enthusiast.
How is Frostpunk?
Dong has the best trailer music
Just saying that its retarded on how people keep saying this game has the least amount of units.
I mean I have a lot of gripes with the game, mainly with how boring the unit roster is at the moment, but I'm also tired of the same old shitposts about 3K that have already been proving false by simply googling it.
Successful. Some like it, some do not.
Absolutely not toaster-friendly, but deservedly so.
Gotta ask somewhere else if you want more details, though.
Just found this. Sync kills is in the game
Thanks
didn't they just announce new rules for games which includes no imperial shit? doesn't that mean no TW games?
That was for last year. It only affects brick and mortar shops but not steam. Countries cant ban games on steam, so this means the chinese can still buy 3K there. Case in point, you can find Senran Kagura in Saudi Arabia Steam despite the ban on lewd material there
Germany would say otherwise
An unfilial merchant nestorian shanyu Wei general was approaching Changban bridge, known Shu-Han clay. "Before I begin my assault, you must kowtow to Prime Minister Cao Cao and accept that he was the most filial and righteous scholar-gentleman the Tianxia has ever known, even more deserving of the position than the sage ministers of Chu and Zhou!"
At this moment a brave, filial, loyal general who had served 25 northern campaigns and understood the teachings of the Sun Bin Fa and fully upheld the Han barred the bridge and held up his polearm. "Let anyone who seeks death come face Zhang Fei!"
The Wei general smirked quite usurperly and smugly replied: "the prime minister has issued an edict naming you traitor, you stupid Yellow Turban."
"Wrong. Cao Cao has usurped the throne and trampled the dignity of the imperial majesty, ten-thousand years of life to his glory!"
The Wei general was visibly shaken and dropped his sword and copy of Sima Yi's orders. He galloped in retreat crying those Wei crocodile tears. The same tears Wei generals cry for the Xuchang "court" (who today live in such rebellion that most do not sacrifice to the imperial progenitor) when they jealously try to compose memorandums to the hostage throne. There is no doubt that at this point our general, Xiahou Jie, wished he had supported the imperial house and become more than a traitor to the Han. He wished so much that he had not betrayed the Son of Heaven, but he himself had petitioned for Wei's ascendancy!
The common people applauded and all kowtowed to Chengdu that day and accepted Liu Bei as the Imperial Uncle. A phoenix named "Pang Tong" flew onto the bridge and shed a tear on the peach garden. The Sworn Brothers oath was recited several times, and Liu Bang himself showed up and founded a dynasty that would last 10,000 years across Tianxia. The Wei general lost his courage and died the next day. He died of fright and traitorousness and was tossed into Diyu for all eternity.
Wan sui!
Absolutely benevolent
that's too bad, I was bout to thank Xi for protecting the rest of the world from the insect marketers influence. guess it's time to fall back to my plan b: developing a biological weapon of some kind that only affects chinks. Just gotta make sure it isn't transferable to the Japs, I need my waifus and weebshit.
Warhammer is basically the skyrim of Total War
Med 2 == Atilla
How the fuck do you even read any of these names?
that was my biggest problem when i was playing any RoTK game
also why KOEI don't make good games anymore?
where is a new Genghis Khan?
Guan Yu ;_;
I got my introduction to the series with the older DW games
>mfw finding out that the ingame pronunciations were woefully off several years later
>the faggot who lost Jing and fucked Liu Bei
What bug fixes did they hide behind paywalls? Name them. You can't, because that isn't how their updates work. You are thinking of Paradox.
I still say Cow Cow.
Just pronounce them whatever you want. Its the fun part. Youll learn how eventually anyway.

You could always just use their Japanese names instead
Lu Bu = Ryou Fu
Guan Yu = Kanu
Sun Ce = Son Saku
Liu Bei = Ryu Bi
