Great, we used to get the Q&A's, but some of our community clearly drove CA off with all their constant pedantic observations.

I think you're right.
Pedantic. You have used the right term.

Have you seen TW forum? The guy is complaining that elephants don't have big enough ears....

They are just as bad. It's the fact that it's an official forum

I'll be honest I had to look up pedantic in a dictionary. Yes I still own a dictionary. Made of paper...

There isnt a thread about it, but yes he did post about it, about 1 minute before i posted this thread, i didnt see it before i created this thread and i searched about it, so he probably made the post as i was creating this thread.

Can't be bothered to create a new account over there to post some questions that won't get answered. CA won't answer questions that are too revealing. They'll only answer basic questions that were almost obvious anyway. I don't blame them. They want there to be a lot of surprises for us when we play it for ourselves so I think it's pointless doing a Q&A.

Lol something like :

Will there be Hoplits?

--- Sure there will be all kind of awesome cool looking Hoplites

Will we have fireballs?

---- sure there will be awesome cool looking fireballs

Will the AI be able to actually play smart tactics on the player without the use of tricks like buffs or guided terrain or scripting?

---- next question please ...

I'm not hating on the Q&A. It's just that it's obvious that we won't get answers to the things we really want to know.
It's like, if I asked if Roman Legionary Cohorts are really effective at defending against enemies, especially barbarians, head-on when defending and in formation, I would not get answer.

It's just that CA has rules and they cannot answer things that go too in-depth as it would spoil the surprise.
