Rate Shogun 2

Rate it for what you think the game diserves..........

I give it an 8. No AA leaves an ugly gameplay experience but yet still can be beautiful. LOTS of multiplayer bugs and some cheesy scripts to compensate for fail CAI but overall it is still a GOOD game.

Gave it a 9, took a point off for no AA, my only solid complaint.

Haven't played MP, so I can't comment.

9.

It isn't perfect, but damned if it isn't the best Vanilla Total War game yet.

[Palandiell]

8, very solid, with a patach definitely up to a 9. dont believe for me it will go up to a 10. M2TW, that was my fav game. it was more my style with the building and WAY MORE unit diversity. shogun 2 is more like empires (in a way) very nice, but just not mine to a full extent

[JackDionne]

When the multiplayer get fixed I will change it to a ten.

10/10

9. It's a very solid game with fantastic features, though after playing Rome, Medieval, and Empire, I'm not fond of its limited scope. I've been having difficulties with slowness and freezes during battle which given my hardware should not be happening, though I'm fairly confident CA will fix these issues with the next patch.

9. I don't mind no AA, as the game still looks beautiful on my machine, but -1 for the buggy mp system.

[Ferdiad]

8:Why, 10 for a perfect game-1 for the DX and AA fiasco and -1 for making it harder to mod again.
10-1-1=8

I give it a 6/10

5/5 points for the best vanilla gameplay out of the box that CA has ever released.
1/5 points for the worst graphical out of the box specs that CA has ever released.

I need good graphics to be properly immersed into the experience... I'm one of those people who zooms in as the troops march and pretends to be one of the soldiers moving in for the kill. With bad graphics (NO AA, LOW QUAL MODELS, DX9), it hampers that.

Lol are you playing the same game I am, Shogun 2 looks great zoomed in even without AA.

WTF!? Graphics are great, god daamm stop bi tching about it man!

I gave 9. So far, after playing 30 hours, my only problem is the extreme difficulty of playing on hard, very hard and legendary. More specificly its the CAI-kamikaze-mode that annoys me.

[The Doubtful Guest]

9/10 maybe a high 8/10 if I was feeling picky.

An amazing game, but def. not a 10/10 in my book.

7. I feel that the game still needed months of work. Also they left out features that should have been included in. Not to mention the bugs

[Omar Nelson B.]

I'd give it an 8.5 but seeing that there is no .5's I gave it an 8. While I have found this game to be very good and leaps and bounds better than the past two titles; I feel that there are some aspects that are still lacking. The RPG element to this game I felt was a good attempt but IMO fell short and felt almost half-hearted. The battles are much too fast and, again IMO, this knocks the game down a notch. I also have been getting frustrated with the siege AI and diplomacy. The realm divided is silly and takes the dynamics away from the "relationships" that I have built up(in some cases, worked berry berry hard to keep them friends only to have them turn on me). The graphics are not a big problem for me but what I find poor is how it was handled. It just feels like a PR thorn that is stuck in my shoe and it just keeps poking me. It just nags and makes me flash back to other "finished", so they say, games that are more forgotten then finished.
This is all my opinion and I respect others opinions also.

Again I feel that this was a good vanilla game that tried very hard to be "grand" but did not succeed. Bright stars in a still dark sky.

8/10

[Reiver]

It's their best game since the original Medieval imo because they finally seem tto have got the 3d campaign map working. Sure there's problems with it but it's giving me the challenge i've always wanted. The battles and the bugs are the reason i've given the game an 8.

I dislike the engine and the way it takes prettiness over function with silly things like a pile of wood throwing positioning completely out of whack. I also dislike the kill rates and movement rates that are making interaction pointless. If it wasn't for the slowed down movement mod i'd have rated it a 7.

The bugs are the other big pain. Couple of performance problems but the siege spaz out is awful. In a tight campaign where every lost soldier is a step towards failure being forced to sally or wait out the timer is so frustrating..

[Googoo24]

Gee.....I wonder who gave the game a 1. Wasn't there a topic like this before?

[Birk]

Well they shouldn't be reviewers atleast I gave it 8 -

[YassirX]

I gave it a 10, exactly what I wanted. Bugs will be fixed soon, I hope. Then it will be the best TW game. MP is awesome (I dont care about the lack of working statistic, as I dont care about statistics). SP is awesome as always, best campaign AI in any TW game. Thats because movement is limited due to mountains, causing the AI to catch the player easier. Graphics are awesome, I've played MW2 before .
