I'm worried...

Hey guys. Do you still play the best RTS, Rome Total War? It's really old but it's beautiful. And by the way SEGA and CA don't come to my expectetions any more. I'm greatly disappointed by their new games and their progress. For me Napoleon Total War and Empire are terrible. I'm hoping for a Rome Total War 2 and a new Shogun Total War (2).Please tell me what you think.

I think otherwise, because Napoleon: Total War is for me. Rome: Total War is very nice, with mods, but just game is terrible without mods. Napoleon: Total war is best total war game so far.
I don't wait any more, new rome.

While everyone is entitled to their own opinions....I think there is a lot of evidence to say NTW is not at all the best TW game to date. Just saying...it's the general consensus from what I see....

Is it true NTW only gets 13 factions?

I think this is best game so far in my eyes, because I have played Rome: Total War , Medieval : Total War 2 and all game expansions, both of games. Rome: Total War is second
in my eyes, I like Rome: Total war, but before Napoleon it was best game. Many guys said Napoleon is sick and bad game, but now what I see is different, they all playing it.
But what about evidences,then what is best Tw game?

Well, even going by the metascore on Steam for all TW games, RTW still beats all the others. This means nothing really, but its an aesthetic observation.

I haven't played NTW or much of ETW but from what I have played, and from all I have heard, they are unimpressive overall. Plus, you don't see petitions to CA for RTW to be better now do you? And just look at all the mods for RTW, as well as a still alive MP community.

6 years later RTW is still strong, a few weeks after release NTW already has a lot of problems.

Just an observation...

Excuse me for saying this but if you just said that RTW is only playable with mods, Without ever having played the MP then you can blow us

Evidence points to RTW. also what makes you think the people playing NTW are RTW veterans? they may very well be newfags.

Not to mention the unrecorded RTW games on gamespy. RTW is far more appreciated, played, modded and mastered than NTW. You come back in a few years and lets see if NTW is better, k?

**Chris Death** · March 24, 2010, 01:25 PM

Just because lots are playing it doesn't mean it's the better one.
It's new - there are people who don't even know RTW but play NTW and usually they
will find their way into RTW aswell.

I for myself got RTW very early but i never played it that much as like after ETW release.
There is also the cheat for fun comunity (singleplayer-cheating to form the game like one wants it to play)
and this is no more possible that easily since ETW (no more console).
Those you can clearly count to the ones who will stick to RTW or may it be M2TW - and there are many
of them - not a minority.

I think napoleon is such a highly regarded game bevcause its pretty much what empire should have been and was hyped up to be. (NTW; now with extra shake

) In my view rome is better, but then again napoleon is focused on way too short of a time period for my tastes.

**Brusilov** · March 24, 2010, 02:29 PM

Many people still play and RTW based mods. There are even mods that are still under development for use on RTW.

Play the game that suits yourself.

**leseras** · March 25, 2010, 12:23 AM

Both games are good. Dependant on opinions ya? I just like RTW...DONT ASK ME WHY! I don't no either.

**loseless** · March 28, 2010, 04:38 PM

I've only played Medieval one and two, and RTW, and I have no doubts. RTW ftw!

It's gameplay, battle detail, units style, etc, it just might be the greatest RTS ever made, and one of the greatest games ever. Just look at this forum. How many people still play this after all those years?
