As I said, this is PRE-ALPHA footage but for what it is I think the game has come a long LONG way since the first trailer a few months ago. Graphics also have already seen a major improvement since this livestream video so the dev team is making tons of progress. What do you think of the game so far? For more check out the links below!

I am really looking forward to this release.
@TheArmchairHistorian8 күн бұрын
Thanks so much for the coverage Terminator! For anyone watching just keep in mind this is a PRE-ALPHA preview, with plenty of UI and graphics placeholders (missing smoke, particles, color-correction, etc). I think you guys will be really happy with the next gameplay stream we do which will feature a lot of leaps forward in visuals and gameplay. AI and battle graphics have seen a huge jump in progress too, we'll likely dedicate an entire development log to that progress in about a month.

I really think you've gotta update those graphics, it's what total war achieved with medieval 1. I play a lot of Noita so I know it's not all about graphics and more about gameplay but these battles look too basic. Great work so far but it's gotta become more immersive ❤

Anyway to portray a battalion without having that long continuous battle line? It will be more aesthetically pleasing if they moved by segments instead of one continuous line. I know its not possible to portray a real battalion size unit which is 1000 men in 4-6 companies but i like how ultimate general civil war has portrayed brigades by dividing them into 2 to 4 segments depending on the number of men in it.

I’ve been following this game’s development, Griff does many livestreams. His head is absolutely in the right place here, balancing playability with history. What makes this game most impressive is its focus on customization. No one has done that with historical strategy to any serious degree. You might also want to check out Bonaparte. It’s a TBS focused on the French Revolution. It also focuses on history-as-personal expression, but on a societal instead of an army scale. Gunpowder warfare fans are eating good for the first time in about 15 years-and we have indies to thank for it!

ngl its sad to see that total war has slowly lost its identity but its good to see that a lot of total war contesters have started to grow and get more popular

And add a north american map
@ostrowulf7 күн бұрын
I think there are enough differences in the North American theatre that having it as a later DLC or a sequal makes sense. If it was a bigger budget game I would agree with you, but in this case I would rather he stayed smaller foccused for now. As for Spain, sure, that idea works for me.

Unfortunately no multiplayer is planned yet, but it's not out of the question for sequels or post-release updates if we're fortunate enough.

Its a pre-alpha. The graphics will improve
@TheArmchairHistorian8 күн бұрын
A very large chunk of what you're seeing are just placeholders. Battles are missing smoke, a realistic grass texture, blood/dead bodies, post-processing effects, color correction, particle effects, etc. The preview is a very raw early look at pre-alpha, something game studios never normally share because of how rough they look. We are just going for a very transparent and open development this time around, which is why we're willing to show off even the rougher parts of the game. You will see some pretty large graphical leaps just within a month or two.
