    Default Answers of visuals!!

    Hello together!!

    i have only some questions and i hope to get some answers.

    1) is it possible to remove this aweful sabres for all the infantry!!! they shout have bayonetts not sabres!!!
    2) where is the field pack of the infantry? i had seen this on lots o preview pictures of CA.
    3) the hats of the japanese Infantry should not be different. they should look similar and not some without hats, some with caps, some with the hats of the Ashigaru...

    and god bless this guys they redone the royal marines and the other european units. i hope some of them are able to do a lot of wonderful mods with this game!!

    Thanks a lot to all!!

    1. Most of the infantry are not using sabres, but Katanas.

    2. To my knowledge, only Foreign units, Imperial (Guard) Infantry, Shogunate (Guard) Infantry, Republican (Guard) Infantry have field packs.

    3. Unit variety, plain and simple. I prefer it, anyway. Keep in mind that these are newly-created units in the 1860s; Uniform standardisation is not going to be perfect.

    1- Oh god, not this again. No, CA did not make bayonet animations.
    3- We had a thread dedicated to hats 3 months ago.

    We can't make new animations or models in Shogun 2, so it's swords only I'm afraid.

    And the only units I know of with varying hats like that are the Kihetai. Line infantry and later professional infantry units all wear the same helmets/caps.

    do you like the hats/caps/helmets? i have been looking at the vermillon bird force etc and not sure i like them..

    also i'd like units with a bit more diversity in terms of looks.

    on the whole it's not bad.

    just the dodgy faces is my real gripe atm.

    oh and i think one of the factions is really weak on "unique" units.

    Most of the troops engaged were using katanas for close quarters combat. Some of the most modernized troops had bayonets but CA didn't have the budget to make bayonet animations.

    3) the hats of the japanese Infantry should not be different. they should look similar and not some without hats, some with caps, some with the hats of the Ashigaru...
    Are you saying they should all be the same?

    Don't encourage them to make more pointless DLC.

    I doubt they'll do either though, its not a huge deal and would probably be more trouble than its worth.

    Yup. It doesn't bother me that much, a lot of japanese units used swords and the like in melee. A sword is still a lot more useful then a rifle with bayonet against everything but cavalry. It'd change the balance and all that stuff.

    'sides, I'd rather have them focusing on the new TW game so it avoids this sort of things. Now, if they are indeed making a ACW or WW1 game and motion capturing bayonets anyway, I'd still love it if they'd patch it in for the european units, of course.
