    Why does it need balancing? Yes a lot of factions get killed off (yes playable ones as well) but so what? The fact is other factions seem to rise and keep pace with the players growth very well perhaps even better so it keeps the game fun and challenging. I have yet to see any faction completely run away as happened in previous TW titles here there are a number of factions that do well ... if the AI was not allowed to grow basically in the interest of keeping everyone around, who would be in a position to challenge the player as he has continued to grow unimpeded.

    From what I have seen this is hands down the best TW title ever ... now Japan might not be your cup of tea but that is not the same thing as saying the game is not good.

    Play now - what have you got to lose? And mate, this is TW Center. CA could release the perfect game and there will still be grumbling about 'broken' features. What are these broken features you speak of? For me, the only thing that's broken is the patch that borked the game up (so I didn't update it) and the infantry/ships are a bit too fast.

    I don't see the logic in buying a game at full price, and then leaving it on the shelf for four weeks.

    Japan's a completely different 'cup of tea' to every other TW game. That's actually one of the reasons I like it!

    The patch won't improve it significantly enough to wait for it.

    hm, where is the "The game is friggin great even without AA" option?
    Biased poll, you want us to say "no, wait"?

    Try to make a non biased poll. Neither option represents my view that the game is fine. Patches can only help, but the game is entirely playable, and worth the cost. Best TW so far.
