    Default What will YOU be playing from now until

    Soo... how will you keep yourself busy for the 1 month and 4 days between now .

    Myself, I will probably keep doing what I am doing now for a while, which is playing MTW1 custom modded with M2TW large unit sizes (64 cav, 96 sword, 120 spear) to get a feel for the game. I will probably play the demo battles at least 10 times each until I get tired of them, then hope that someone makes a custom battle program such as they did years ago with RTW.

    Later this month NWN 2 will come out, which I am also looking forward to. It will probably compeltely distract me from MTW for a while (well, maybe not COMPLETELY), and by the time I finish the SP quest, hopefully november 14 will be nearly at hand.

    MTW totally. I am craving some medieval action right now. Basically, I play MTW, watch every single movie about the Middle Ages I can get my hands on, and go buy a broadsword.

    Voted "refuse to play games until MTW2 comes out", but im not protesting about CA taking so long though, its only 2 years, this has always been the time delay between TW games.
    Plus we got Alexander a few months ago. At the moment, I just dont seem to like any games, well apart from C&C Generals, I whup my friends online a few times a week, thats all I really play now.
    Plus now I play football (soccer to you yanks) a lot, so dont really have as much time for games.

    Ah, have you tried XL? It adds a hell of a lot to MTW, about twice as much factions and lots more units and provs.

    I'll be playing Company of Heroes religiously, as well as dabbling with the demo on occasion.

    The Demo of M2TW is boring after 3-4 times of playing each battle. perhaps they should have included a little piece of the campaign map. The demo should be a piece of the game, which shows the features of the full game - in a summary. The campaign game is not featured in the demo, although it's suppose to be 1/2 of the game.

    Regardless of the demo, I will be playing company of heroes, and here and there I will try to break open the demo of M2TW and see if it's moddable.

    I remember someone made a utility of some sort for the RTW and BI demos whereby you could design your own custom battles and so forth.

    If someone makes a similar tool for the M2TW demo, then the replayability will increase somewhat dramatically.

    I'm all ready on CoH everyday, and breathing FIFA 07. When MTW2 comes out then, only then...
    I believe that to meet the challenges of our times, human beings will have to develop a greater sense of universal responsibility. Each of us must learn to work not just for oneself, one's own family or nation, but for the benefit of all humankind. Universal responsibility is the key to human survival. It is the best foundation for world peace.

    I'll still continue my campaign in PTR PE + M&NMod for sure. Apart of this I have lots to do in my Oblivion adventure and very soon I'll begin "nameless" quest for life in Gothic3 so I don't bother myself with griev waiting for M2TW release.

    I used to have a quote from George S. Patton about the Russians, but I guess some might have found it offensive.

    I just picked up Saint's Row for my X360. But I'll still be dedicating most of my time to Rome.

    I think I'll play the demo, and then sit in a corner waiting for it to come out, or maybe I'll be occupied deleting all these links...

    I will go to school, do homework and study for tests only to see my grades go down the drain as soon as M2TW comes out...

    I pre-ordered nwn2 so I got the toolset (editor) of that game a month before release, most of my time goes to playing around with that and making areas for a module that someone else will host. Furthermore I am playing nwn1 quite a bit still, I got lots of friends there and I am playing rome total war occasionly with darthmod 8.1

    Hell will break loose the beginning of next month, most games I buy just to get something to do before the really good games come out, but this is the first time ever for me that two of such great games are released a few days away from each other.

    First neverwinter nights2, and a few days later medieval 2 total war. Both games will be the best of their genre when released.

    nwn2 + medieval 2 = very little sleep and late for work a lot.
