    I've had a CTD during battles, but not during the campaign. It has been frustarting but no where even remotely close to the numbers of CTD I had with Empire. Not by a long shot...

    I guess that's the advantage for CA - they release a horrible POS and then a year later they release something that doesn't even have to be good - it just has to be better than the benchmark set by ETW.

    You mean CTD yeah? not COD? lol what's call of duty got anything to do with this??/
    Field Marshal Horatio Herbert Kitchener, 1st Earl Kitchener KG, KP, GCB, OM, GCSI, GCMG, GCIE, ADC, PC (24 June 1850 – 5 June 1916), was an Irish-born British Field Marshal and proconsul who won fame for his imperial campaigns and later played a central role in the early part of the First World War, although he died halfway through it.

    Funny, I haven't had nearly as many crashes as Empire.

    However, I have had to lower my settings far more than I should for my specs otherwise it crashes...still haven't been able to find out what's causing my constant lag...

    Mine's crashed a few times during battles, but not (yet) on the campaign map.

    But as others, nowhere near the frustrations of Empire, where games would be ruined due to corrupted saves and crashes on certain turns.

    I have had one crash during a battle but i was minimizing and reopening the game a lot... so that probably had something to do with it

    Yup I'm crashing hardcore too. First it started off on every other battle. Now it's every single one, even after drastically lowering the graphic settings. Sweeeet.

    I had tinkered around with the sound settings, and noticed after that some weirdness in the sound during battles, and it also stuttering when the ctd's occured.

    After setting them back to 'default', seems more stable.

    No crashes, I never crashed in ETW except early first week when I had SLI problems.

    I have zero crashes so far. zero. no need for etw to be a bench mark. crashes usually happen when I have the pc on for longer than 24 hours and tried to play any game, that is a problem with the windows operating system, not the game's problem. but that has been eliminated since I stop using windows xp.

    “The only rule that ever made sense to me I learned from a history, not an economics, professor at Wharton. "Fear," he used to say, "fear is the most valuable commodity in the universe." That blew me away. "Turn on the TV," he'd say. "What are you seeing? People selling their products? No. People selling the fear of you having to live without their products." freakin' A, was he right. Fear of aging, fear of loneliness, fear of poverty, fear of failure. Fear is the most basic emotion we have. Fear is primal. Fear sells.” WWZ

    Have you had your daily dose of fear yet? craziii

    @ Greve

    I wouldn't discount it as being very wrong. In my GB campaign by the time I had every region captured it was about 1832. When you get stuck into a campaign you like with a faction you love, time flies That was until it got corrupted and I lost it forever...
