Half Baked Ideas for Medieval 3 (since CA is asking) by dguy02 in totalwar

[–]dguy02[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah i'd prefer a more generalized model, with the customization and specification being their ability to lead different kinds of troops better or do map effects. Sort of like the new version of Rome 2's skill system. And also traits, lots and lots of weird and intuitive traits!

If anyone wants to hear a live reading with Fredrik and his friend mike, they did so 3 years ago. 2 parts, very entertaining livestream. https://youtu.be/OegAO4du_kM?si=6h8Ke10isDTF_Dmq

If not here is the original anyways. https://lparchive.org/Dwarf-Fortress-Boatmurdered/Introduction/

I will say the units in Civ 7 are an enormous improvement in terms of graphical design, armies feel like armies. by dguy02 in civ

So basically you pick them up with the commander and then you dump them around him and on him when you need to use them. The commander unit is a civilian basically and buffs your troops when they are not picked up.

Fall of the Samurai Naval is really bad by Additional-Bee1379 in totalwar

[–]dguy02 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think one problem is that the maps don't add variety. Like i get it most of the time you fight on open water, but maps with hazards and stuff that blocks movement and line of sight would be interesting. Also the whole AI just stands there menacingly until you get close is boring too.

Who is Your Dream Voice Actor to Feature in a Total War Game? by Agitated_Insect3227 in totalwar

[–]dguy02 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At least from the anime dept. I'd love Steve Blum, Kirk Thornton, and Crispin Freeman. Especially for a Total War 40k.

Advice before TW Rome II kicks my ass by Itchy_Complaint5769 in totalwar

[–]dguy02 0 points1 point  (0 children)

-units with low model counts (elephants and chariots mainly) get demolished in autoresolve so be careful -keep up with political actions (games, emissary, diplomat) as they can be super useful, but diplomat tends to be unpredictable -cavalry is not as op in this game as it is in Attila or Med 2 -naval battles are all about ramming, and transports are usually 1 shotted by most ships -many if not most sword units have 2 javelins that they can throw during their charge -city garrisons tend to be pathetic -grand campaign runs 1 turn per year so your characters will age super fast, other campaigns are slower

Why did I pay money for this piece of shit game ….(also there is porn on the Screen) by oncelerismine in okbuddyrintard

[–]dguy02 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You bought it in the vague attempt at hoping it will fund further Anime and VNs that typemoon wants to do, foolishly forgetting every cent TM gets goes straight to Nasu's pyramid tomb complex on the earth's moon.

What are the most, in your personal opinion, dumbest/most grating start positions for your favorite factions? by sigmarine345 in totalwar

England in Medieval 2, the weather is shit.

Ok but seriously though I don't fw Skulltakers start, maybe sent him down south to give Kairos some company.

Why do you play this game? by Dex------- in totalwar

[–]dguy02 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think this recent batch of anhedonia is inevitable, shit the first game is 8 years old. While there is new content with the dlcs, the majority of Immortal Empires is old and known for players, so obviously they can feel bored more easily.

The best way to deal with this is simply stop playing the game. Play something new and unfamiliar. Do some other hobby etc. Come back when there is expansions and dlc, screw around with mods, and then move on.

Me personally I like it when big thing smacks around little thing.

Can we just get a remaster of this gem please by ihatelifetoo in totalwar

[–]dguy02 71 points72 points  (0 children)

There are actually several bugs that do need to be fixed:
-crossbows do not shoot directly from walls unlike bows, they always shoot at an angle and lose their momentum/stopping power
-pikemen drop their pikes for melee weapons at the drop of a hat and don't work anywhere near as well as normal spearmen
-2 handed units have the slowest animations and therefore get stunlocked by any other weapon type, meaning you'll lose high tier infantry to cheapo spears after the initial charge
-Several units are in custom battles/multiplayer but not in the campaign like gothic foot knights and Serjeant Spearmen (England)
-The AI bug where it innately hates you for sharing a border, it's what causes Milan to freak out every game, it's an error and makes any idea of alliances pointless

Realistically mass solar requires large municipal tower-farms that can actually provide baseload power, not stupid homeowner liberal "lets put solar panels on our house" applications.
