    Default Cool easter eggs or no?

    Like maybe a ca logo on london or where ever ca is based's wall?


    Or like a legion of men and women made up of their faces

    Or maybe a pacman running through the city lol

    I don't know just random things in a game that doesn't affect the game play, but add humor to all the killings

    Maybe

    No. What the hell? How bored must you be to think of this stuff. Go play Blizzard games if you're looking for comic relief.

    Indeed it would be stupid... For some FPS, yes, for realistic RTS, no.

    Hopefully CA have learned their mistake in FotS and keep the gags subtle, in-text, and from "easily digestible" sources (I dare any one of you to speak out against the "Hungarian Phrasebook")

    ^This. How did you people not notice the bits of comedy in all the Total War games?

    When they were making those horrid jokes in FotS such as the exaggerated accents of literally everyone under the sun, it was too "in your face" to be funny. If they're including jokes, they need to keep it to text descriptions, if it's a reference it needs to be from a source that's widely considered funny (the example I gave was the phrasebook, a reference to a Monty Python skit. The translated phrase in the description in game is something to the effect of "My hovercraft is broken") and the key is it needs to be subtle enough that you don't have to notice it.

    Original jokes are fine, if they execute them correctly, such as insane generals speaking and the likes.

    Personally, the only humor that I know (or find) from RTW is when they zoom in on a general as he dies. I find it (the "falling" animation) very hilarious the way the general and the horse suddenly disengage from each other and the general looks like he's falling from 10 meters. While the camera zooms in on the general for emphasis.
    Also when the beserkers fling their enemies or uppercut them and the same "falling" animation plays.

    That's one thing I like about old-style traits. Some of their definions, or the traits themselves, were hilarous and hard to get.
