Why are people writing it off before it's even been released? A TW game set in ancient Egypt/the Bronze Age has potential for maximum kino.

I'm not as down on it as some people as Ancient Egypt is one of my favourite civilisations and I really want to rebuild the New Kingdom Empire. But the fact its a full priced game and they don't have the Mesopotamian or the Minoan or Mycenaeans in makes it feel very incomplete for what they're charging. There were mods for Rome 1 that did the Bronze age better than what this looks like currently.
>>
>>1530041
It would be maximum kino if CA was able to make the gameplay good, but they haven't been able to in over a decade so people assume it's going to be the same shit.

It was bad on launch but quickly fixed, but there was such a negative attitude towards CA at the time due to the trainwreck that was Rome 2 that the oldfags just dismissed Attila forever. It runs perfectly well on my mid tier, several years old machine.
It's a great game. Despite keeping some of the terrible decisions made with Rome 2 (eg.: you can only have a set number of armies) they fixed the battle system, the building system and the tech tree and made the most SOVL main campaign in the franchise's history.

I simply cannot understand why modern Total Wars are so popular. Warhammer 2 is barely playable after a decade of bandaids being applied onto the Warscape engine just so it can struggle with things which Medieval II and Rome do effortlessly. To top it off, their DLC policies are scandalous. Going back to Rome I after playing the newer games and watching how a unit winning a melee will actually push on its enemy makes me feel young again.

They perfected cav in Medieval 2 and they perfected archers in Shogun 2. Instead of learning from this, putting them in one game and perfecting spearmanii as well they went and reworked battles into the most unsatisfying system their addled minds could muster. Why would anyone trust these animals?
>>
>>1532097
In what way were Cav "perfect" in medieval 2, the forgetting to charge and the slow clunky movement? What major differences could you find between archers in the total war games they all function essentially the same, just in newer ones they can no longer shoot arrows straight up.

CA spent the last 15 years on the campaign map, while stepping down on the real time battle map, witch is the real identity of the brand. There are ton of grand strategy games made by paradox that can offer the same campaign experience, but games that offer the same combat very few, I recall only gettysburg.
Troy was really bad on this side and pharaoh will have the same limitations, if you make a game with limited campaign map at least the battles should be good, or the factions should be super diverse. Not the case

Because history is boring and Warhammer is peak total war where they actually have freedom to mix up the general gameplay and actually do cool shit. I mean really what are they going to do? Unless they add proper sea combat which everyone has been begging for and eveyone knows they won't add there is literally nothing that they can really do or change up that TW hasn't already done.

Problem with Total War is that every battle plays out the same when unit variance is low. With the dynamics of the game series, you can never have enough units to hold a sizeable reserve, so tactics are almost entirely about countering or flanking. Older games also had terrain to account for- I remember seizing the high ground against the Romans in a defensive battle as the Greeks and letting them die on our spears- but newer games don't. Basically, you end up with the ole' Shogun 2 special:
>both sides field identical units
>the battle starts with a brief archery duel before the lines clash
>everything is so arcadey and anti-cavalry is so prevalent that there's no room for a decisive charge
>no formations and no reserves means you just wallop the other guy until he breaks
Add in a literal decade of legacy code and an engine that was never meant for non-gunpowder warfare and you can see why Pharoah is going to be DoA. Warhammer was an unexpected hit that's been carried on "unit variety." 3 Kingdoms hit chink gold, but they've never capitalized on the positive changes introduced by that game.

> the Era is militarily boring
Meh, it has potential, especially if it had some kind of early game mechanic where victory is a matter of who can bring the most bronze to the battlefield with bronze chariots being like modern tanks, but runners to collect the arrows fired from chariots become gradually better and better until they start functioning as infantry and it completely upsets the old world order and the grand finale is every country going down in a massive upheaval as these infantry hordes take to the seas and go on a rampage, with bronze armed elites fighting a desperate action to prevent total destruction

Cavalry is good in Shogun 2, it's just up against a lot of spearmanii and thus has to be used effectively. You were filtered.

Yeah, and watching the ai send it's tenth army consisting entirely out of town guards will destroy it.

>>1533974
> the Era is militarily boring
Strongly disagree.

Chariots are basically the one type of cavalry that requires some actual skill to use. That already makes the game more interesting than Medieval 2.
>>
>>1541894
Cavalry in Rome 1 is mostly shit until you get to the Eastern countries. Totally deliberately, mind you.

Wanted to use it to play the Lotr mod but atilla struggled with medium sized battles that rome 2 had no issues with
>>
>>1530564
CA never updated Attila to their new engine like Rome II hence why it runs so poor. I can say even with a 13th gen i9 CPU, 7000 speed ram, m.2 drive, and a 3080 I can just make it to 100fps but dip to 40s.

IMO they didn't want to update Attila due to the player counts at the time being lower sales wise but the inner cynic in me thinks its due to how open the Attila's engine build is. Checking their steam DB they are still updating some build, not sure if its the launcher tho so I'm not hopeful.
>>
>>1541894
>Cavalry is good in Shogun 2
Hypothetically, yes. Realistically, no. Units are too fast and responsive, so you can't really threaten archers with light cavalry. All cavalry also suffer the samurai problem- their units are significantly smaller than Ashigaru, so they tend to lack staying power. Because of how stats work in Shogun 2, Ashigaru also scale ridiculously well. Cavalry exist for mop up and maybe a lucky charge if the enemy is about to break. Fall of the Samurai is a radically different story, of course- cavalry, especially Yari Ki, earn their keep by taking out artillery and threatening line infantry. Ironically, they're more dangerous to modern armies than traditional ones.

>>1544164
>chariots
>in Total War
They're all or nothing units. Either you have the Iceni Scythed chariots effortlessly mowing down heavy infantry or you end up with units that get bogged down in peasants. If they're implemented as they were historically used (lol) they'd be about flanking enemy units to pepper them with arrows or javelins.When the frontlines are clashing, you'd then use them as dragoons, disembarking from the chariot to get stuck in from behind.
>>

Troy actually did it really well. They will destroy most units if used properly, but get them stuck in the wrong terrain or get caught between two units and they will be dead within moments.

No, the Romans don't become relevant until nearly a thousand years after this game's timeframe.

Total War hasn't had good non-musket gameplay since Medieval fucking 2. Hell, only one of their musket games had good gameplay. They've been making total dogshit for over a decade now. They seem to think, for some delusional reason, that the Warhammer games sold well for any other reason except the Warhammer brand. Literally the only way the over-inflated CA can stay afloat short of firing 90% of their staff is finding another big brand filled wilth money-stuck secondaries dying to feel like they're a part of something and pumping out another big Pile of Shit: Total War for the consoomers to gorge themselves on.

He is not my Pharaoh yet boy, nor would I agree with that statement even if he were!

Volound is the best thing to ever happen to CA. Any criticism, no wonder how cutting, can be brushed off by associating it with that autistic fuck.

The Romans used cavalry extensively though. They just didn’t use native cavalry much until the high and late empire, but Rome always sought out good auxiliary cavalry and the numidians were often the deciding factor of battles

More like total troonhammer. The levels CA has stooped to after warhammer are just disgusting.

kek
this anon is right
volund was right on few issues but he also was plenty of wrong and he is a fag so it doesn't matter anyway

What criticism? Players have been outright praising shit gameplay mechanics that were controversial when first introduced in Rome 2, and now get copy-pasted into re-labelled ones, because CA weren't being told they were shit. A situation they seemed too comfortable with.

ahem. I'll try:

> shirtless Egyptian peasants with small daggers
> guys with those curved half arc swords
> elephant riders
> priests of rah who can spread disease and other spells
> chariot riders
> slave drivers with whips, maybe with a group of Jewish slaves
> spearmen with shields
> pharaohs bodyguards with traditional swords
> Greek mercenaries

Bronze needed to source copper and tin, two things not found near each other. Especially not during the times of the pharaos

Yeah if this was the 2000s I'd be excited but everything CA has released after warhammer has been complete dogshit, this is going to be another troyhammer, you just know.

Graphically the campaign map looks so good. That can't justify me buying it at full price though. I'll definitely get it eventually. They will most likely do a "we are abandoning the game" sale in a year or so.

I was somewhat open to preordering this, but now that it has cosmetics DLC as a preorder bonus I refuse.

There isnt any. Total war players have been consistent in complaining about the series but shills need the fanbase to stay at war with itself so CA can continue pumping out garbage

>Why are people writing it off before it's even been released?
>before it's even been released
it's been released 2 or 3 times already under different names. i'm pretty sure they just reskinned troy. if troy sucked then reskinned troy will certainly suck.
