Pa pazi, ako se naviknes na neke nedostatke igra je ok :)

Doduse ostajem pri davno izrecenoj konstataciji da je prvi Rome najbolji TW ikada, narocito kada se igra recimo EB mod :)

E sada, ako te zanima na sta igra trenutno lici, imas ovde linkove (zvanican TW forum, voljeni RUR-e oprosti) za gledanje, pa uzivaj:

mogu reci da je sada igra dobra.Da su sacekali nekoliko meseci da izbace igru ne bi imali onakav fijasko.Ono sto jos zelimda vidim poboljsanu diplomatiju i da konacno ubace one battle govore pred pocetak bitke.Mislim ima voice ali ocu onako cinematic da bude kao u kecu.

[rebro]

Хвала људи, послушао сам вас и пикам је ево већ недељу дана. С обзиром да сам очекивао трагичну игру, пријатно сам се изненадио. АИ је у борбама за сада само једном испао баш дегенеричан, у дипломатији има мало више проблема али реално кад је у овом серијалу па била лепо одрађена дипломатија. Највећа разлика у односу на дан кад је изашла је у оптимизацији колико видим, немам неку звер од компјутера, а игра клизи и изгледа лепо. Поморске битке на које сви кукају на форумима су мени до јаја, различитост јединица након Шогуна 2 немогућa итд. Углавном ето, ако неком неким чудом значи и ја саветујем да се да друга шанса игри иако фали доста ствари које би морале да буде ту.

[Azdaja]

i sta na kraju skinuti od modova?

jel konacno ispeglano sve, mogao bih da pocnem lagano.

[Faramir]

Pa pazi, zahvaljujuci svim ovim patchevima igra je skroz drugacija od onoga na sta je licila kada je izbacena na trziste. Ovo naravno govorim u sasvim pozitivnom smislu, mislim da je sada poprilicno igrivija, a i poprilican broj besplatno ubacenih novih naroda je odradio svoje :)

Sto se samih modova tice nemam pojma sta da ti preporucim, igram standardnu verziju :)

Elem, ako ti se igra makar malo ne dopadne, preporucujem ti da skines Medieval Total War II + Kingdoms ekspanziju i da instaliras na njega Europa Barbarorum mod http://www.europabarbarorum.com/ - poprilicno je zabavan i mislim da ce ti fino biti za igranje :)

[Azdaja]

Hvala Carinjo,

ME 2 sam prostudirao medjutim za EB mod nemam pojma, bacicu se na citanje. :)

[Sting]

Eb je najjaci mod koji sam ikada igrao, za bilo koju igru! Ako gotivish istoriju i taj period bice ti dobar preko svake mere, mada malo u pocetku moze da bude konfuzan. Procitaj uputstvo i forum prvo :).

[Faramir]

EB je verovatno najbolji mod za anticki svet, baziran na Total War igrama :) Mozda i najbolji mod na svim igrama :)

Meni je prvi deo EB-a, onaj koji radi na RTW I, nesto ubedljivo najbolje i najlagodnije za igranje na sta sam naleteo :)

Sto se tice ovog EBII za MTWII , mislim da jos uvek postoje neki bugovi, obzirom da je relativno skoro izbacen, ali tako je bilo i sa prvim delom, ispeglace vrlo uskoro sa fixevima sta god da ne stima :) U svakom slucaju mislim da je vredno makar da se pokusa igranje ovog moda :D

Edited November 22, 2014 by tzarinho

[Sting]

Za drugi si u pravu. Ja cu sacekati da izadje josh 5-6 verzija pa cu tek onda krenuti. A ovaj prvi je vec ispeglan i manje vishe nema kriticnih bugova.

[Faramir]

Dakle narode, divni ljudi iz CA nam za dan 16. meseca dvanaestog, ove godine, donose sledece:

Wrath of Sparta campaign pack



Divna kampanja koja nam donosi priliku da iskusimo cari onoga sto je u istoriji, nesavrsenoj kakva jeste, a opet divnoj, koju sa postovanjem izucavamo, nazvano Peloponeski rat !



Igra pocninje 432. godine p. n. e. - donosi nam 22 provincije, sa ukupno 78 teritorija, svaki krug ce, zbog manjeg vremenskog okvira za kampanju trajati mesec dana, a samu kampanju cemo moci da iskusimo kao jedna od cetiri nacije : Sparta ( o/ ), Atina, Korint i Beotijska liga (Teba) :)

Idemo ovako:

Sparta





Atina





Korint





Beotijska liga





Par slika iz same kampanje:





U igru ce biti ukljucen novi Tech Tree, a pored gore pomenutih naroda u igri ce kao jako prisutan faktor biti ukljucena i Persija, sto se moze primetiti na slici koju okacih negde tamo gore a koja prikazuje mapu :)

E sada, cena svega ovoga na steamu ce biti - oko 15e, mada mislim da se moze uzeti i za 13.5 e pre nego sto sam DLC izadje :)

A epizoda Rally Pointa koja govori o svemu ovome sto sam sada ja otkucao je evo, bas ova:
