Which units you would like to see in new DLC for France?

It is possible to make DLC for France (max 4 new units).
Which units you would like to see them?

France doesn't need more units.

Nah, I just use unit mods.

None...

Why would I pay for a DLC when mods are making more and better?

Unit mods are worthless.






Now, if they make a DLC with a new map, adding more regions to the game...

Steph,
mods making more - no doubt about it, making better - it subjectively view, maybe not shared by all.

Any way, I mean: DLC = DeLuxe Content. And not necessarily from CA

+4 new deluxe units, which would you prefer?

A DLC which adds another campaign would be more worthwhile than adding a few more units to a faction that already has an impressive roster

I have very little doubt about the quality of the units from some mod .

You mean Darthmod right

No...

Anyone know of any good mods worth downloading that give Britain some extra units? I'm looking for German units, possibly Dutch/Portuguese. Just something that adds a few extra special units. Any info on this would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

TROM 2. Lots of units and a whole new campaign if you want it (1812)

Masters of Europe had many units, including KGL and Brunswick, but it's not really playable in campaign yet.

Dutch and Portuguese units are planned for later.

I would only pay for a DLC if it added the features that were missed from the original game.

The most important of these for both ETW and NTW was the unit design tool, which was supposed to allow players to define their own regiments and unit types. This should have allowed players to specify basic uniform details such as jacket, trouser, colour, facing colours, unit name, and headdress shape. It was actually in the list of promises for things that CA were going to put right after the launch of ETW, but like most of these promises they were never delivered.

The other major one of course was the multi-player campaign option, which seems to get promised at every new launch and never materialises.

Paying for extra units is a mugs game, when the modding community can produce them for free and with much more accuracy than CA's designers. For some reason CA only seem to use one source for their uniform information and this is obviously unreliable.

Didz,
In other words - if the CA does not give me what I want - so let nothing will

Not sure I understand that statement.

Basically, what I'm saying is I am only prepared to pay for additional content if it adds features to the game. Or put another way, if I can get something better for nothing I'm not going to be daft enough to pay for it.

Thats true, but only really useful for those of you with the technical skills to use PFM etc. I tried doing it to correct some of the ETW units but couldn't work it out, so I ended up using a free mod to provide decent uniforms. The CA promise was that the game would come with a unit editor that made it simple so every unit could have a different uniform is desired.

When I see the "simple" editor they provided for Shogun, I'm happy to have PFM

Never forget gentlemen, they promised us mod tools. They didn't deliver. I refuse to purchase any Shogun titles, and will more than likely boycott Rome2 until they get over themselves with the "proprietary tools" garbage.

they delivered for Shogun. The game you don't want to buy... They won't come back to NTW, so if you stick with that, you'll never see their mod Tools.
