Second shot is just charging into horses throwing spears every 1 just decides they want to throw THEM ALL at the one guy.

The second picture is hilarious and reminds me of Mount and Blade

All aboard the disappointment train!!

I rode the hype train and I still really enjoy the game. I guess I'm not too big on the battles anyway. I can understand people's frustration though.

But isn't SEGA the one pulling the strings in the end concerning funds, deadlines, and all other policies (DLC etc.)? CA may have have actually done it, but under circumstances created/enabled by SEGA pushing the limit. However, that being said I don't quite agree with a number of gameplay decisions and designs that CA made either.

I agree, this release should have been Victorian Total War which would have been simple to achieve as an adaption of "Fall Of The Samurai" I suspected that Warscape wouldn't be suitable for an ancient warfare TW and it seems this assumption was right. Perhaps a new game engine for the next release, it just won't be based on Rome

For those placing the blame on Sega, really? CA announced this game in July 2012, Shogun II had less time between when it was announced and when it was released.

Now onto the purpose of this thread, I applaud it. I have been looking forward to this moment ever since people started begging for Rome II. I knew they would be disappointed. I said they would be disappointed, but no one believed me or they just ignored me. Well have fun being disappointed, I am drinking your delicious disappointment caused from overhyping the game.
