A small thing i hope will be in mtw2

[Turkeys!]

I hope when i zoom in on citys in the battle map and lets say go and look at the archery range that theres a couple of soldiers practiceing and people actually at the market and blacksmiths. it will make the citys feel more alive then just a bunch of people walking around on the streets

Something worth defending knowing that theres actually people living in your castle

[DougyM]

That entire feature has been removed.

The guys who played the latest build at all the conventions are reporting that there is no longer any feature that lets you zoom in on your city.

Though that could just be becuase they havent implemented it into the game for the conventions.

Im personaly not shocked or annoyed by that desicion, ulitmately the city zoom was completely useless...

I, personally hope, that when someone's army steps AND stays in my territory, I could send my diplomat and ask them to remove their forces.

For that matter, I want the AI to be more respectful of your borders in general. If they're going to attack you, that's fine. However, if they're just going to wander through, or sit for a few turns and leave, that's what an alliance with military access is for.

That would bug me also. It is somewhat more jolly, when these agreements tally up correctly on the Strat map, after all, the AI could be quick to warn us off, but the favour, via subtle diplomacy(ie:get off and stay off my land or I'll bash your brains out), couldn't be returned!
This lack of accurate depth seemed a little shallow, but still only a niggle really.

[The True Roman]

That would be cool. Like if you ever played Black and white 2, once you crated a barracks you would see guys going there to practice and stuff. Once you built something they used it and it was great to watch your city grow as if they were real and not just some sort of Computer AI building something then standing around for your next order. One little thing I would love to see is the abondonment of giant people on the face of Europe and a much more realistic look. Such as scalleing back the scalie of the units to make it look like amries are moveing across the land instead of giants. Make the city look smaller on the map (the campain Map is what I speak of) get ride of this cartoon like giant man on man action on the map and go to a more realistic look is what I want. Thats about it, O ya mabe give you the abillity to dismount Calvary in game. These things arn't big changes IMO.

[Cyrus the Virus]

Maybe it would, but its not a big part of the game so..

I wish you could fight small units of a nation's forces that don't respect your border without going to all out war with them.

Fights along borders used to actually take place(and still do) without full blown war actually breaking out, so it's an interesting point you make.

I think that could be a problem. Are they regular soldiers, some greedy baron's landsknechts, or just a bandits (rebels). Cause, historically, since Phillip le Bel became a king of France, any hostility between regular troops he claimed to be an agression by other country.

Rogue generals who's actions are definded by their influence (and therefore how much they can get away with) - that would be a good feature.

[Turkeys!]

awwww no more looking at the citys on battle map when bored

[Turkeys!]

what about being able to posess the commander of a unit

[carl-the-conqueror]

id rather like to be able to quell riots

[Turkeys!]

if the feature of being able to zooming in onto citys is in then i would want to be able to see peasents with pitchforks and stuff running arond the city if its in a state of unrest.that and id like to see town guard chaseing down theifs and little things like that

[Scarlett Letterman]

It was a pretty useless feature, anybody even bother checking it out more than once.

[MadeManG74]

I think i looked a few times, if there was a new building i wanted to see like a Circus maximus or colliseum, and maybe sometimes to see how the Roman and Barbarian cultures were blending on the city layout, but apart from that not much. It took the same time to load as a battle almost, and you couldnt really do anything, so i didnt use it much

[Turkeys!]

too bad they didnt use it if you wanted to rotate one of the buildings or move it else where

[Publius Clodius Pulcher]

It would be a cool feature if, after 1 or 2 turns of rioting, it gave you a battle screen, auto resolve or fight. If you fight it's just like back when you used to zoom down on the city, except the minimap is disabled, and basic rebel units will form in the streets. If you are able to hold the city center for X amount of time, the rebellion is quashed and happiness goes back to green for at least 5 years.
