There has been some strife in recent years on whether the role of Alexander in the potential 2nd movie should go to a Slav or Greek. I see as highly unlikely that the sequel will ever reach production stage.

    Rome 2 launch was a disaster, but CA really put it back together since then. It's really sad those who hasn't played after the launch remember Rome 2 as 'the bad total war' when it's really one of the most successful titles in terms of sales, active player base and general experience.

      Yeah, 100% agree with you, however my problem is, is that I can't afford a computer good enough to run it at 60FPS, however even without 60FPS the game is still a bunch of fun. Honestly such a fun game with lots of potential if you play it correctly.

    When you didn't like the UI and the basic dumbed down town-building system and the combat that makes ranged underpowered, this still does not do it, Rome1 will be hard to make a mod for, it was really good, just a tad unstable. Any Rome1 guys wanting to play Rome1 while doing other stuff, get the program DXWnd and import the medieval TW profile and modify it to point to rome exe instead, full-screen adjustable window mode and it hardly ever crashes! wonderful.

  • @TheErickDH
    @TheErickDH 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    I'm right there with you on sparta, i think part of it is their total lack of melee infantry and shock cavalry, which just turns any offensive action with them into a slow grindfest. yet for some reason they remain oddly popular as an attacking faction in online siege battles, so i guess some folks are into that, personally i prefer Syracuse or Massalia if i'm going Hellenistic

    Legio translates to Levy, and likely refers to the fact that pre Marian troops were essentially militias who maintained their own gear and served out of a sense of civic duty. Similar to, though perhaps distinct from, medieval levies where you were required to serve your lord and generally weren’t expected to be paid except when looting a settlement.

Also I reccomend the AAA: Aging generals mod if you get tired of seeing 88 year old generals that look like they are 30.
