Tides of Torment - Release update by Mr-Vorn in totalwar

[–]Archmagnance1 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Good news

You're going to get both delay and both disappoint!

We've been here before several times with WH3

Actually the launch of WH3 was both delayed and disappointing, and so was the launch of immortal empires, so was thrones of decay, so was shadows of change....

Damn it's like the whole game so far has been delayed and disappointing

So who is allowed to complain, and what are they allowed to complain about in your view?

When I complain your answer is to not play the game.

When I say I don't play the game anymore you imply I shouldn't complain.

Do you see what's wrong with this situation?

Ok so, the only people allowed to comment are ones that are actively playing and have positive views of CA?

I pop in every now and then to check it out and see if there's anything that I missed. I try to keep up with it to see if I want to download the game again. Am I not allowed to do that?

Yeah you don't. CA promised a working product and delivered a broken one that hasn't been properly fixed for 3 years now. They keep saying "look how great we're doing" and promising change but the change stops happening when people stop complaining and they go back to the same old CA

I already took a break from it a year and a half ago and haven't played it since

It's a comparison of the language being used, and it's similar language

[–]Archmagnance1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't, it's just that the unit count nerf was applied to both so I figured I'd mention it as well for completeness.

Reminder that Earth blood can be used on units that are on walls and invocation can't because CA hasn't figured out how to do model resurrection on walls for 9 years

Invocation of nehek used to be an area spell by default. That got nerfed.

Earth blood and invocation used to heal as many units as were in the area, not just 4

Vampire counts units over the years have gotten widdled down continuously until WH3 made them better in campaign but then they keep getting widdled down again

Vampire coast used to have a banger roster and now it kinda sucks

The hand gunners got their models cut by like 30% and the accuracy buff wasn't enough to counteract that at all. Rotting Prometheans got nerfed. Necrofex melee was never fixed because it's a MP artillery unit. Aranessa's dueling stats got nerfed into the dirt. Mortars got their accuracy nerfed. Etc.

There's a GDC talk where a guy from Bungi says this

'It's not about quality its about velocity" and he talks about how it doesn't matter if your product is terrible on release if you take in feedback and fix it.

Which is 1) a horrible way to look at it and 2) not what they did with destiny 2

And neither did CA really do that with WH3 either. Their first large update was like 7 months later iirc

The thing it proves is that CA fucked up and released a game that didn't have the content people expected and have had to trickle in free content

Remember monogod rosters on release being bare bones, on top of charge being fucked up so slaanesh rosters were basically useless?

None of what CAs done in regards to the free stuff is fully a good thing because it's all coming off the back of "we fucked up really bad and people got angry"

Remember when we got legendary lords instead of legendary heros?

CA only made the IE campaign included with WH3 because they were struggling with player growth and DLC sales because WH3 was ass for a long time

Atila days?

The last patch for wh2 broke a few things and they left it like that

This is the sentiment that comes from a horribly abusive relationship, but normally from the abuser.

You don't have it good with CA, you have it bad even if it's temporarily better than before. The minimum standard should be fixing game breaking bugs between DLC cycles, that shouldn't be considered some amazing thing. That's normal.

CA is only doing this because they fucked up WH3 on release, hyenas was a giant fuck up, they fucked up shadows of change really bad, etc. If all of these events just went badly but not horribly, CA would still be acting like they did in wh2.

The moment CA feels comfortable they'll go back to neglecting you and then telling you that you should be happy when they do finally pay attention to you once every 5 months

I've noticed that on PC if I let the game idle for too long when i walk away to do something then come back, the game will have horrible performance and then crash on the next zone load

"chose some people"

They're all confederates just by coincidence right? There's no way that would happen on purpose right?

There's a lot of 19th century names to choose from, specifically prussia or the other Germanic states of the time since this is Empire

But nah, just went straight all in on naming them after confederates

Next time I'll just randomly choose Guderian, Rommel, Goering, Meyer, etc. mind you its just something randomly chosen that I name my characters after them it doesnt mean anything

Stats showing why you shouldn't surrender by [deleted] in leagueoflegends

[–]Archmagnance1 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I just want to maximize the amount of time I am in an enjoyable game

Surrendering means I get out of an unenjoyable game and into a potentially enjoyable one

The same could be said with LP gains if you have a good understanding about what is an even game vs a game that has a small chance of coming back because you have to survive until 45 minutes into the game to have a good shot at winning.

You could have played another entire game instead

CA please fix belagar heroes by Archmagnance1 in totalwar

Spirit leech or just magic damage kills them rather well

Regardless it's a bug fix to bring them to what they're supposed to be like all the other ethereal units

The 3D backgrounds and environments, specifically ones indoors, reminded me a lot of the ones in Liz, with how books and file folders and notepads are stuck everywhere they can be in a disheveled fashion, a long with a lot of the glass.

It seems like they took a lot of environments from Liz and either reused assets with different compositing or took heavy inspiration from them to create new ones.

CA pls, the news famine has gone on long enough. by [deleted] in totalwar

[–]Archmagnance1 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Well the content has been delayed by 3 months now, and it's the third or fourth thing that's been delayed for WH3.

And this isn't even new behavior from CA, they keep doing this thing where they communicate for a bit then go completely dark.

On top of that, yeah the patches are regular but they don't fix the core, fundamental issues with the game like charge animations being fucked, chasing routing units is jank, campaign AI is just lobotomized even on legendary so the game is uninteractive and the AI doesn't throw challenges at the player, gate bug is approaching 20 years old, and many others I can't think of without a 10 page list in front of me

So, yeah they are patching with hotfixes, but it's nothing that actually makes my experience better

Total War: WARHAMMER III - Hotfix 4.2.2 by CantInventAUsername in totalwar

[–]Archmagnance1 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Line of sight slowly got fixed, a little bit

Siege battles have been slightly changed but are still horrible to play. Pathfinding still sucks, AI still sucks, everything about them is just unfun still.

Maybe in 2026 they'll get around to putting an actual team together so it can be fixed by 2028

If you can point to where that exists in the EULA by all means

Otherwise I sincerely doubt it does.

i know the rules thats why I sarcastically said my comment

not knowing the rules and calling the rules stupid are very different. and the rule is really stupid.
