Wow thats a great video, not the best resolution but long and shows alot of nice details added in. The cannons look fantastic, great cavalry charge. A bit weird at the end where they all fall down, but I'm sure thats something to be sorted out.

Oh, and can someone say CHANGING MUSKET LINES!?

[BeastG33]

Um..........................

A couple things. First of all, unit speed is absolutely, incredibly ridiculous. The part where the infantry charges through the gate is just absurd. They didn't even look human.

And if someone could tell me what the hell nukes the cavalry at the end of the video, I'd really like to know because an entire unit of knights just appeared to drop dead. This nuke occurs around 6:10.

Also, where are these videos coming from? They're popping up on youtube and other sites but IGN and Gamespot have been getting nothing.

[Hyungoku]

ummm i m kinda disappointed at this vid.

very disappointed actually...

the units run at like 100 mph.. the effcts are lame and it just didnt have the usual epic war feeling that other tw games have.

it still looks cool but i guess i just expected too much improvement from the next tw

oh by the way why do fire arrows look like fire crackers...

and a big wtf at the horses that got nuked.

In all justice I've read of seiges where a stone flung by a catapult shattered into deadly shrapnel in a courtyard where a sally was being prepared, and something like 25 horses and riders died from the stone fragments, but really that cannon shot hit soft grassy turf and that "nuke" seemed rather absurd to me as well.

It looked beautiful, but I fear we're going to have really fast battles, REALLY fast battles that are over before you have time to direct your forces. It'll be rush the general and run down the routers all over again. STW may still be the best of the TW games even when M2TW comes out...

I'm sure it looks 100 percent better in higher rez

Happy too see the roman moving towers , just retextured lol , anyway this means that I can make the roman mode more easily and plus the walls are exactly like roman walls ^^ ...

[swabian]

changing musket lines, realistic horse speed (yes it is), and the seige equipment & walls doesn't look roman at all, at last not distinctively. can't share this opinion. it looks great in total.

[PROMETHEUS ts]

Dont look roman ? Lol they do ! Roman walls where direct ancestors of Medieval walls same for the siege towers ... horse speed is fine to me , not sure about men , may be it could be a realistic sprint run speed but for sure coulnt be kept for much and to make it realistic the men should tire and stop very quick with this run ....

[sunsmountain]

Besides using fire arrows in rain and incredible battle speeds, morale rout fast etc.

Good charges.

[swabian]

this is in the late period obviously. don't tell me that walls in that time were still roman ones. and i don't think there are many ways to construe a siege tower, which was an inheritage of the antiquity during the medieval, like the trebuchet and many other things. the infantry is too fast, yes.

[Sidus Preclarum]

Wtf is that artillery... Both in number and efficiency, it looks like the Grand Batterie @ Wagram...

[Lord Tomyris]

Music when they march towards the wall reminds me of Helm's Deep...I like the moody atmosphere at the end, just wondering how all those knights dropped dead! Bit of a Deus Ex Machina if you ask me...

[swabian]

the video doesn't show much infantry vs infantry fighting. knight vs infantry fights were fast.

[The Thracian]

The Artillery was good and so was the cavalry charge however Those units are running too fast for my liking.

[Sidus Preclarum]

How in the name of god was the Artillery good...

[The Thracian]

How in the name of god was the Artillery good...

The Catapults and Trebuchets had good animations and they looked realstic aswell.

[MoROmeTe]

The smoke from the artilerry is a bit to bluish for my liking and the man assaulting the breached wall are to damn fast. Other than that this video is beautiful. Something we cannot doubt is that the game shall have the looks...

Well the walls in the viewo are exactly like big roman walls , they aren't like late medieval era walls , infact those would be more thick due to the cannonball resistance , the tower is the same they used in RTW , trebutchets are medieval not roman ...
