Who else is stoked for Shogun 2?

Been really looking forward to this game lately. Ive played the series since medieval 1 so not only is the setting entirely new for me, it looks like its going to be putting the series back on track of being absolutely awesome. Empire, and Napoleon were meh, but all the TW games before them are among my favorites of all time, and Shogun 2 looks like it just might be my favorite as I like the setting better than the others.

*Raises hand* Empire was a let down in manys ways, next to its excellent aspects, Napoleon was pretty damn good.... But I cannot wait for Shogun.

i am so stocked!! probs wont have enough money to buy it on release so i guess ill wait till it goes on sale:D

Heres a few vids you guys (probably havent seen yet) unfortunately (unless ovcourse your german) are in german but they really show off some good gameplay. And all in HD :P

There was another that showed off samurai musketeers with deployable fences infront of them, but I cant find the video ATM.

Edit: NVM thats in the first vid.

It looks excellent. I love their change of direction.

[QUOTE="XxspritexX"][QUOTE="flipin_jackass"]*puts hands up* I haven't played that kind of RTS on PC since, well, Shogun. I saw a gameplay video a few of Shogun 2 months back and it's looking good so far. I'm looking forward to the release.flipin_jackass

Go buy and play Rome. You are seriously missing out on one of the best games ever made.

Very excited

If they can make decent AI this will such an amazing game.

Me me!...but I put all the money that I was gonna put down for it (50 bucks) towards The Witcher 2 Collector's Edition after buying GT5 :P

I'll be honest, I've never played a Total War game. I'm hyped for the graphics, gameplay videos, and the fact that massive medieval/old japanese armies going at it sounds purely f'ing awesome.

I am, so much so that I hope they fix the AI

canot wait

Man I hope Shogun can cleanse the horrible taste in my mouth that Napoleon and Empire brought. That's how much im stoked for it. XxspritexX

Am I the only one that really liked Empire? What were peoples main gripes about it?

Im stoked, I was kinda letdown by Empire/Napoleon but thats maybe because im not too interested in those Eras, but Im a big Samurai fan!

My only consistant disappointment with Creative Assembly is their lack of mod tools.

I cant believe they're even bothering with implementing their single/multiplayer hybrid and combined naval/land battles before making some friggin mod tools. I dont think all that many people even care about these two features.

Creative Assembly really could make an amazing game if they spent 3-6 more months polishing their games. I'm tired of them selling me unfinished products.
