Official 'Empire: Total War' Thread

[PiEdude]

Okay, so this is the thread that's acutally about the game, not the demo.

I can't get it yet, but I hope I can soon.

Anyway, here's a list of (I think) all the factions:


SWEDENZ!
FOR TEH WINZ!(but only for lack of Irish, Cherokee, or (actual)Scottish factions, and the fact that the U.S. is not really a proper faction)

Comes out in stores and steam tomorrow!!!

I hate choosing a Civ. I love soviet Russia, but old feudal russia kinda sucks... but it's still russia.

I've been saying I'll be poland... but I love russia...

I think you may have been right, toaster. Although, Rome is pretty fun.

It is march 4th in wales?

Yeah, I suppose it is. But I bought it at 6pm on the third. Check Steam - and also your pm. You'll find more of my complaining there.

I'm refusing to watch any related videos or read any articles until I play it.

Well, it's the third here, so it's not up on steam yet... not for another 12 hours.

[Dud Doodoo]

That's when you tell them you're in China.

It doesn't really show anything, just shows flags of different Civs with their respective flags in the background while some song is playing.

Then there's like five or six screen shots at the end.

I planned on making this thread. But I'll have to wait to get some more money. Damm brothers spending my savings.

[Toaster]

lol, I only initiate media black-outs when it's a game with a story line that I care about or something. I'm already on black-out for half-life 2 episode 3.

[Dud Doodoo]

To me, knowing the full mechanics of the game is like knowing the storyline.

[Gold Spartan]

I agree with dud. I havent even watched the 5 intro vids.

[Toaster]

you guys are strong

[Gold Spartan]

Though now the game is out and I cant wait to get enough money for it.

[Dud Doodoo]

I confess to watching the launch trailer.

It was on the front page and I suppose it was like fapping, my hand demanded that I clicked. XD

Funny thing is, the trailer was so amazing I did fap.
>.>
<.<

[Cheese]

Spent all night downloading and it's finished to - 'A problem has occurred that means Empire: Total War has stopped working... Fuck You.'

Damn... I hate tech support too... I'm gonna try turning it off and on

System requirements are looking better than good... although admittedly I still don't know where to find my video/sound card still. By all ways of logic, this game should be mocking high graphics. Must be that the trolls got it again... Last time I buy a 15gb game on steam.

Apparently it has something to do with Vista hating humanity. Any other Vista users having problems? Gonna try on XP

Mmmmhhhmmmm....

[Cheese]

So has anybody been able to play it yet?

I'm dling on XP now. Started an hour and a half ago and am at 4%. 140kb/s avg.

[Angatar]

15 gb?!

[Gold Spartan]

Well, I dont have the money to get it.

Cheese, you need better internet service.

[Angatar]

15 GB?!
Isn't WoW that big? >.>

[Gold Spartan]

I think it's 20 GBs of pure, epic shittiness.
