Preview: Settlements of Middle-earth

[major]

amazing!

[Brego]

Must be Rivendell or Hobbiton or the Grey Havens then? : O

[Tzar]

Astonishing!!!!!!!!!

[MagUidir]

wow this stuff is amazing! who do i add rep to?

[sturmdg]

WTF THIS IS AWESOME I CANNOT BELIEVE IT IS TRUE

[MasterBigAb]

It's Umbar, Cirith Ungol or Rivendell ?!? ^^

[Derfail]

So it must be Umbar!

[Derpy Hooves]

Could be: Erech, Pelagir, Dol Amroth, Fangorn, Bree, Ost-en-Edhil, Amon-Sul, Annuminas, Do Guldor,

[MasterBigAb]

Esgaroth would be damn great, but that was guessed already ^^
Annuminas is also an inetersting idea

[maxi90]

And besides, no one has really made the correct guess what the next settlement will be, but I think you'll like it...

i am gonna say either Rivendel or Dol Guldur.


it has been almost four years since i entered the forums just for this mod alone, and each and every time you realesed a preview my mind was blown away. I remember that at the beggining there were a number of things that the fans aked for that were scratched off rigth away due to the amount of work required or technical dificulties, and yet you managed overcome those obstacles and delivered joy for all of us ungrattefull bastards that kept demanding more. well this sir, is the last ing staw. i am officially out of words to praise and thank you for all of this. you are better with this than the programers who created M2TW themselves! how AWESOMENLY INSANE is that?
You literally beat the crap out of almost every contemporary game out there using an engine that it already almost five years old, and you cannot even get paid thanks to goddam corprigth. with all the games that keep popping up in the stores nowadays, i would pay $40 for this anytime.

so, it begs the question. do you work for a videogame company?

anyway, all in all, i can only thank you for all your work and tell you that this look great, although you have allready hear that one million times allready

[Sootheater]

Are there any plans to make the elven territories/forts such as Rivendell or Lothlorien? I can't stand watching elves defend a generic human settlement.

The ones you have done so far look fantastic. Keep up the good work.

@the holy pilgrim
pathfinding has not less nor more problems than vanilla settlements. Minas Tirith is obviously a bit harder for the AI, but doable. And there will likely be custom battles with those settlements.

That's good to know. I'm just a bit worried as these settlements, while being a massive leap in M2TW modding, are far more complex than vanilla settlements and the AI is, well, not intelligent

Keep up the excellent work KK and team

[jinjo]

imo it will be minas morgul or black gate, both should be amazing

[TheFirstONeill]

Truly beautiful work, kudos to everyone involved.

[Hrobatos]

this is superb! I'll have to get TATW again! now a true LOTR expirience, it just wasnt it with regular cities...

but you should construct standard cities for elves, dwarves, orcs and men...

[Scout of Imladris]

I am speechless. This is the most incredible work I have ever seen for TW. I can't wait to defend the white Tree at Minas Tirith or the Hornburg in Helms Klamm. Thank you King Kong, wilddog and makanyane for your work!

[wilddog]

Amazing, stunning work King Kong. I'm thoroughly impressed by the end results.

[MasterBigAb]

Amazing, stunning work King Kong. I'm thoroughly impressed by the end results.

Our greatest thanks to you as well !!!

[Arágion]

OMG!

Love the Minas Tirith, can't wait till I can defend that beautiful city in a battle!
Hornburg looks amazing too

And Moria was a real surprise! Wasn't waiting for it actually (in so early stage), but now that I've seen it... wow


Great work team! This is what the most (or all ) of us have been waiting for.... to bring the settlements of Middle-Earth into the epic battles we fight against the evil (or good )!!

[Scout of Imladris]

Yes, thanks wilddog!

And MBA, I can't wait to see these settlements in your videos! =)
