Medieval 1212AD is literally unplayable, and the devs haven't cared to fix the issue at all. It's a simple bug fix, and because of that, very few if any people have been able to play since Oct/November.

@@SeaLion8488 No it's a must try. It's just unplayable right now ;-; It really depends what you mean by playable. If you play on very hard difficulty, you'll shift between 3 mid-sized armies defending your borders and them getting sick so they're all half-dead 80% of the time while 2 provinces are on the verge of rebellion, so you rotate your armies to the cities to increase PO.

Honestly don't get why CA does not simply invests a bit in modders (say, make 3 people responsible for helping specific mods with potential). It would greatly boost sales of even older games and does not require (a lot) of their own developing capabilities and even responsibilities.
@chico98057 ай бұрын

@Don8Maverick7 ай бұрын
sadly it doesn't make sense for the financial dep of the company since its just an idea where they can't calculate the reward of it, but the risk man oh man they always calculate it and they see the older games as rivals to the new ones. they don't want you to boot medieval 2 again to play a bronze age mod when they can sell you another game and producing another game means the shareholders are happy since the company is producing "something", basically there's a reason why 99.9% of gaming companies are detached from the modding community because they have a financial dep who only believe in numbers.
@nobodyknowsimgay7 ай бұрын
I'm not so sure about it greatly boosting the sales of older games. I think all those games have their audience. Mods are not going to be attracting enough new people to old games for it to be worth to pay any number of people full time. Those games are cheap. Would be cool to see that kind of direct support but there is a reason no one does that. It doesn't make a ton of sense financially from what I can tell.
@moinda70597 ай бұрын
Or even ezer, they should give us some kind of the ability to access old games files ezer with an price of 10-20€. Means, modders wouldn't have that much of problem creating their fantasies/ book fantasies into the game! Cuz even thought I'm not a modder I heard about alot of total war games that are pain in the ass to mod so it would be a win win situation in this "crisis" (they called it crisis at least)

This has, though not for TW, been done before by modders, and not to a high volume of success. Good thought, but it is easier to mod a game than it is to built one from the ground up, even if you are duplicating an existing game to modify to your desired specifications. You might be thinking that it should be rather simple, having a fairly objective idea of what the game needs to do, support, how it functions, etc. But in reality, it is only a fraction of the effort going into the project. One you start to change things, update the engine, etc, you are going to be thrown to the wind and you won't have the OG game as a guide anymore to keep things straight. Not to mention the nuances to testing, altering, and pushing new features. The same thing can be done with an easier workflow via modding. And that is not to say that modding is easy, it is just easier than making a whole new game from scratch.

Great top, but personally I would add the 1100AD mod for Rome 2, because if the tool that you said that could help expand the playable map get to that game it could increase the possibilities for gameplay and storyline. Invasion from nomadic tribes from Africa, Central Asia; Nordic kingdoms invading in Viking style; reconquest of Byzantium land, ext.. and I consider that is a mod that is overshadow for the 1212 mod for the years Thanh as, but 1100 is more early medieval

What they are managing to do, after so many years, with Shogun 2, is impressive; Maybe we will finally have, with all that progress, the Empire 2, the Victoria or the Pike & Shot Total War that we have always wanted, especially with those mechanics that have fascinated us so much since 2011 and that Creative Assambly failed to give us. Hopefully this year they can unlock the edition of Japanese castles, so that we can achieve the result we want with each MOD.
