    Icon1 CA please do not battle animations, and make a realistic battle

    Yesterday I was playing Company Of Heroes 2 it was awful, and I immediately wanted to get out of the game. In the video, it looks very cool, very well detailed good. But the game is not a battle, and the animation of the battle. And it's all the spoils, and whole game becomes not interesting.
    In the game Men of War Assault Squad completely different game mechanics. And it's fun to play.
    I'm afraid that Rome 2 will be similar to Company Of Heroes 2

    Combat animations will look something like this:

    I am worrying about battle animations too, besides we had no information on it. We saw the videos at the beginning about their studio but...
    I think that TW titles have not enough different animations generally speaking, specially for the naval fights.

    I find threads like this to be a bit pointless. Not only will CA probably not listen to them, but even if they would, the game is already finished. So I think we can pretty much stop the suggestions for them

    I want the animations! Its much funnier to zoom in to the battle, and see the men actually fighting instead of repeating the same moves over and over again. Keep it up CA!

    Same here! Good and realistic animations please! (the Romans used the point of the gladius not the blade like the brabarian scum!)

    Anyway the video posted here is useless because Star Wars = disgusting retarded childish crap!

    what is this thread about?
    The introduction of battle animations with the new engine was a major step forward in my opinion. The lack of animations in Rome I make it unfortunately unplayble for me today.
    I actually didn't understand a word you said about company of heroes 2 and war assault squad, they are totally different from Rome II

    Yeah...what the hell do they have to do with TW. I wish people here knew how to speak proper English. Would help us understand their point better.

    True, since they are making a Game here I hope they go all out with the animations and good combat, From the scripted videos it looks good, from the Forest gamplay video it was lacking and whoever recorded it speed through it too quickly to get a good look at fighting animations.

    I really hoped them to include a proper rotational change performed by romans As mutatio ordinis , this helped have on front line always fresh and ready soldiers , while the opponents usually had exhausted and tired ones untill their. Whole unit retired to rest.
    Apart that even the way theshield is kept or the sword used by romans is wrong , the barbarins and romans fighting ech other in loose disposition and uncoherent cohesion as seen in the teutoburg video is more adapt to a medieval skirmish orshogun 1to1 duels rather than how things were fout in that age especially by the disciplined and well drilled romans.

    If you've played Company Of Heroes 2 and Men of War Assault Squad, you'll understand what I'm saying. In the Company Of Heroes 2 stupid animation theoretically fight. In Men of War Assault Squad occurs a real fight.

    You can't compare Rome 2 and Company of heroes 2, you just can't.
    If you're talking about the difference between CG-cinematics and in-game gameplay, then you should know that you can't make a proper assessment of a game by looking at cinematics.

    Edit: I thought that the animations in Company of Heroes 2 were good actually, very fluid and lifelike. The soldiers can take a little bit too much damage for my liking, but it was okay actually.

    What? I don't understand your question. Maybe they did it with Mo-cap, maybe hand-animation? I'm not the right person to ask this question to.

    So far Company of Heroes 2 isn't disappointing animation wise. (Playing it right now)
