What’s next for DLC?

[CraigTW]

Hi guys,

Just thought I'd drop by to let you guys know we're running a poll where you can have your say on what you'd like the Total War New Content Team to work on next.

To take part, head on over to the thread on our official forums - and make your voice heard!

Cheers,

Craig

[Captain W. Handberg]

Great initiative!

[Sharpe]

More new units, including lower tier ones that do not get replaced. So you can have a variety of elite and rookie troops.

I actually like the new system but I would prefer having the option to recruit cheaper, lower quality troops rather than the entire roster scaling.

this should be a patch not dlc

[DramaBelli]

I really appreciate this iniziative Craig. Attila seems a game deeply more careful about the needs of the community. This poll plus the will to remove torches are two surprising steps you made, good job guys. Looking forward for the next rally point with you and Will

[Sharpe]

Yeah Free-LC

I still like units upgrading like - Contrarii becoming Cataphracts and Legio becoming Eastern Armoured Legio etc. I just think there should be a few basic tier 1 units scattered about.

This is laughable and insulting. CA clearly can see how unpopular their dlc within a week is. So to save face lets let the people decide what we work on next!!! Right like they dont have it all planned out already? I bet they have or have been working on every single option in the poll as some kind of dlc already. Nice try CA.

Aye, it seems strange that they apparently don`t aleady have it all planned. Seriously? They are waiting on what people vote? I don`t buy it. I`ll bet the blood Mod is waiting, plus several more.


One thing I will say here to CA, is thanks for removing torches (disregarding the fact you ignored us every time we asked you guys this question, though you obviously knew the answer- Not appreciated). I might actually buy the game now. However, the battle needs to end and the attacker return to sieging when all siege units lost.

[jtfjtfjtf]

Whatever it is, it should be Free LC

[ShadowMassa]

Well, I like the fact CA is working in higher percentages with their community now. CA, I say something needs to be done about the lack of diversity in the game. Britain and Ethiopia needs a lot of help at the moment, some areas elsewhere on the map also. Alans need more proper units and skinning too.

I voted for more mp-options, just because i love the Shogun 2 MP. I really hope to see atleast a customizable general, and maybe even a cusomizable bodyguard. I think it would be a fair compromise for the S2 avatar lovers and the avatar haters.
However, as it seems the self-contained campaigns are winning anyway i am hoping either for a Justinian campaign, just because it is for me the most interesting of all made requests, or something more exotic like the Hephthalite wars in eastern Persia and northern India. A campaign finally not centered in Europe would be a really appreciated.

[Linke]

Nothing except campaign dlcs I think, please never do any unit dlcs ever Again for example

[FrozenmenSS]

Voted for More new playable factions!


My suggestion is to Add The Bulgars(Bulgarians) into the game as it was in real history.They were 1 of the main allies of the Huns.





More info Why CA should add the Bulgarians(Bulgars) as a horde starting Faction as a FLC or DLC

[Crappy]

Disappointed that one of the options isn't "new mechanics for the grand campaign" - factions, units and new campaigns are cool, but my favorite expansions are the ones Paradox makes for CK2 and EU4 where they add new mechanics onto the base game.

[stevehoos]

Can you say "damage control" LOL!

[FrozenmenSS]

Can you say "damage control" LOL!

Same

[JERUSALEM]

More units, more effects, more and more faction to choose which to play, more multiplier options alongside the more factions which is requested by everyone I guess and in the end more new campaigns and historical scenarios.


Everything that is in the poll is the game itself, so I think game everything has to be developed in future


But if you want us to choose, I will choose more faction just as the more factions mean more interesting A T T I L A TW and more units with more historical scenario etc

[MasterBigAb]

Blood!!!
Afterwards more units/rosters - especially differentiating the Germanic copy&paste rosters for Celtic factions.
Then playable British tribes.

[WelshDragon]

Celtic units/factions, hopefully toned down and do not include Germans

[Jakkka123]

Only campaigns and scenarios deserve to be DLC's

Factions and units should always be in the base game
