OFFICIAL REZZED COMPLAINT THREAD!

[Border Patrol]

What a stupid thread. With an asinine "Official" thrown into the title no less.

[John ''True Grit'' Wayne]

The game play looks like a cross between skittles and ten pin bowling and Mortal Combat.
Work needs to be done on the battles and make them a bit more realistic.But overall happy enough with what I saw.
Just dumb down the Arty.

leave it to CA to have 5 minute battles, with zero morale. every total war game, they have low morale. you'd think after the 5th one they would smarten up.

The UI and portraits are so damn ugly and underwhelming.

How can u take Craig or the game serious anymore when they cannot even be bothered to get proper physics in for E3? Its only two months to release and they still have not fixed anything we complained about.They should be ashamed to show chariots throwing men that far in the air.And then the arrogant response on the unit cards is the icing on the cake.


We tell CA something we do not like and they tell us we should like it?


Erm but how is that customer friendly? Its arrogance and frankly insulting that they think they know better than the customer.If they like it so much why dont they buy a few million copies? Its obviously a game made for CA and not its customers.

TW has never had realistic physics.

-bad flying animations (smash down and no more flying please)
-I fear the pikemen animations, it is as if they don't use their pikes like in ETW (but I admit we didn't see that well)
-the battle seems too fast because most of the units were destroyed by balls, elephants, chariots and ballistas: all these items seems too strong, so there have been no battle at all, only bowling TW. All that have to be more realistic.

Especially the balls part, flying balls, fiery balls, rolling balls, you name it, balls. Even men got killed by their own balls set on fire. Not joking.

they seem to be trying to make up for something

That's a ballsy thing to say.

Apparently it doesn't seem to occur to some people that the Romans were at the bottom of the hill with zero artillery or archers.

Going up against a force that's well entrenched on a hill with balls of fire...what were they expecting? That battle was already lost the second the Romans moved. The way I see it the land units should've held back until the navy beat the Egyptian fleet so they could pincer rather than fight at once.

To run up a hill with no support is textbook suicidal. Not to mention the player didn't bothered putting his men into loose formation to lessen the damage from the artillery.

What if they lose the naval battle? Wouldn't the Egyptians be even more powerful with reinforcements?

so basically what you are saying is that attacking a hill with a superior force should be suicide. History has shown us that holding a hill without reinforcements isn't necessarily a advantage. The romans in this battle were wiped out before they even came into contact with the enemy and that is ****ing stupid

the internet is full of ballsy people

Check again. The romans had zero artillery or support. So it's not surprising they got mauled badly going up a hill.

Greatest TW title of all times?

After watching the Rezzed video, I actually feel way better of the way the game has come together. I don't see anything major to complain really... CA already stated the flying animations were not finished, and that was the only eye-candy thing I did not like. I'm really exited about the title after seeing that presentation.

Also OP, you forgot your caps-lock on I know it is worrying if your thread gets lost amongst these other complaining threads, this being official and all, but... you know.

Same here. So many complaints seem to be over completely subjective matters. Fair enough but luckily I don't share those views and am consequently looking forward to the game's release.

Map looks great, however, the size of the cities really look out of place....I get they had this great idea of making the cities grow over time but the execution is poor. It could still work if they would just reduce the size and sacrifice some detail. Now it just looks 'cartoony'. Maybe something that can be modded? Wherever the water meets the land could use some animations/extra detail.
Battles? What a mess! If you like arcade games I am sure you will love it! To me, it looks lifeless and without soul. The environments look great though.
Well, looks like a 6 out of 10 game. Can't wait for the reviews on this forum.

[ptoss1]

I love how there's such a blatant divide between the regular CA employees and PR people.
If you ask the regular folks, they just deflect and tell you to ask the PR, and the PR then gives you a vague nonsensical answer that only has a tiny bit to do with your original question, leaving the questioner unsatisfied and feeling like he got shortchanged.
