    Default Things I would have liked to see/hope to see

    First I'm not one of those, waa I wish it was European history kids here, I'm really happy they finally went back to their roots. But I'm in about 55 hours, and there's some stuff that would be nice to have in.

    More videos, I know I usually only watch them a few times, but they are usually pretty entertaining, but there's no video when a general has to commit seppuku, the videos of ninja's killing each other look like they are generals (why does a loan ninja have a huge military encampment?)

    Historical generals/daimyo, I played as the Date, but I never saw Date Masamune, I know things change when daimyo's marry someone else or adopt a general or get prematurely killed, but there should be something in place to try to get the historical guys in power as much as possible. And also when these great generals or daimyo come to power, they should already have some historical skill.

    Marriages, I rarely see any other clans have available daughters to marry off, not sure how to fix that, maybe have each daimyo have more kids, or up the ability to marry off daughters of generals, or marry off your sister. Also taking Kyoto should entitle you to marry into the imperial family giving your diplomacy a nice boost.

    General's information, Right now the general's information is really lacking, yeah we have the progress tree, and that's cool. But I liked MTW2 Stainless Steel's general's fact sheet, it felt more personal, their likes, dislikes, it would also be cool if some generals were of different religions so I could place a Christian general in the ever rebellious Kyushu to quell Christian rebellions.

    Mercenaries, Saiga-shu were a large group of mercenaries in Kyushu armed with arquebuses. Maybe a trade region with Okinawa could provide some Ryukyu mercenaries. Yezo could give some Ainu mercenaries. Those last two are less than historical but not too far out of the realm of historical possibilities.

    Realm Divide -___ - +, it's pretty damn annoying, everyone breaks their treaties with you aside from maybe a really really close ally or your vassals, but they will wage war on each other, and then if you refuse to help you are then pitted in a war. I was also even allied with the Shogunate and had good ties with him, but they were cut quickly. I think realm divide should either, a. not do as much damage to your diplomatic relations, or b. happen way later, I wasn't that powerful when it happened, I was just the most powerful, and I had a looot of money from trade to support my empire, but when everyone turned against me, my economy collapsed and I was fighting wars on my borders and within my empire. really really annoying...



    Expanded map, let the conquest continue to the Ruykyu and Yezo, new units, new clans, more fun, also Korea is on the map... I'd like to see them as a nation, but I heard that it wont happen...

    Other campaigns,
    Imjin War (out of the picture apparently), Kublai Khan's invasion, Gempei War, Boshin Senso o_O... and one I'd really like to see, but know it will never happen, an ancient era campaign, the Yamato Wa's conquest of Japan fighting the Kumaso and Hayato in Kyushu, Kibi, Izumo in Honshu and Emishi in Tohoku, as well as Tanma, Baekje, Gaya, Shilla, and Kogureyo in Korea (I hope we can get a good enough modding community to make that happen)



    Well that's my two cents, I hope I can see them come to fruition, as updates, DLC, expansion packs, or through the good old mod community.

    Nice ideas. One of the few well thought out...idea lists, I guess. Looks like you did some research, too. I haven't got to the Realm Divide part yet, but from what I hear it is a real pain in the neck. Also, I agree on the more videos part. I'd like to see a wounded general video, not just a stab in the face and a note that says he's wounded. Friggin' lazy ninja not checking his pulse.

    Historical figures do appear, from what I've heard, and you can play them in a custom game. They should be being born/popping up in regular campaign, no?

    Ninjas are lazy, they will kill a bunch of men, but wait to drip poison into sake, and just give up when he doesn't drink it.

    They might, but not as regularly as I want, I played two games with the Date and never saw Masamune, but he is in the custom battle section.

    Few more:

    Nanban Trade, I liked how the Nanban/Koumou trade was in STW 1. I understand that the Nanban trade started in 1540s, so it makes sense for them to be there at the start of the game, but in STW 1 you had to wait for them to come. And you had to convert or wait for the Dutch. I don't like how at the start of the game daimyos already convert and there are guns. I think we should be able to choose which year we want to start, like how it was in STW. Also better movies, when the Portuguese and the Dutch came they both talked to the daimyo.

    Emissaries? no more emissaries, I miss them and the dialog they had in STW 1. And for that matter the throne room.

    I think the historical generals will be historical if they were born by the tsart of the game (which doesn't seem to hard to do) but after that it's a random named general. Thus you get Yoshihiro and Yoshihasa Shimazu, but Masamune is invisdible.

    As to a good portion of the other wars you mentioned, they'd probably have to be an actual expansion of heavy mod due to the tech/tactics changes in game.

    I don't think Masamune is in the Campaign. Finished my Date Campaign at 1573, Masamune was born in 1563. He's also supposed to be Teremune's oldest son but according to the family tree, it's another dood named Nobutsugu...

    Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 


    Also in the custom battle, Date Masamune doesn't have an eyepatch. Lame...he's my favorite after Takeda Shingen (who also doesn't have his famous Kabuto).

    I know what you mean, but I think technically he didn't have wear eye patch. At least he never had anyone paint him with one, I guess he was really self conscious about it, because in Sendai almost all the statues of him don't have him wearing one. D:

    I like how you get a blank encyclopedia page when you right click on historical generals in custom battle.

    Are you really 100% satisfiied with it? If so then wow....

    I like the game, hell I've been playing it non-stop since the day it came out. But I'm not going to pretend its perfect. Or would you prefer a 100 threads about how much we like it? I think stuff like this is more productive. I'm not ing or complaining that I wished it was another Euro-hist game, but there is room for improvement.

    I loved the ninja movies... but shogun 1 you had different ones depending on your target. Shogun 2's are generic Japanse male must die!! Videos.
    I'd like to see some metsuke vids included. Those guys are the ultimate in badass

    I have seen Tokugawa Ieyasu in my campaign and defeated him. I don't recall if he was just a mere general or Daimyo or heir.
