[QUOTE=angelangel;14006932]Busy cooking? *cough* [/QUOTE] Hmmm?
[QUOTE=Keri;14005768][IMG]http://i40.tinypic.com/iqylo6.png[/IMG][/QUOTE] Maybe if you bothered to structure your question in proper English, and not use symbols like a child. Furthermore, I realise how you don't bother to read most of the threads you visit. This makes you seem incredibly idiotic.
[QUOTE=Afrika;14007137]Hmmm?[/QUOTE] I found your ban [I]extremely[/I] humourous.
[QUOTE=The Best;14006751]I'm getting extreme lag during sea battles, is anyone else getting this problem? Land battles work perfectly fine at 30+ FPS, and 1v1 sea battles run at a decent 20-30. The 2v2 sea battles are really taking an FPS toll.[/QUOTE] It could be the water. I heard it's a real FPS killer.
[QUOTE=Rusty Shackleford;14007402]It could be the water. I heard it's a real FPS killer.[/QUOTE] Hmph, it's toned down to medium right now. Anyone else getting this problem?
[QUOTE=angelangel;14007176]I found your ban [I]extremely[/I] humourous.[/QUOTE] Ah I see. I was just being silly. It didn't help that I just watched Apocalypse Now before going on facepunch.
Did you know you can rename your units by right clicking on their card in the campaign map and then clicking on their name? Also, am I the only one that stations at least one militia in farms etc?

Going to rename every single unit now. :) In regards to your question; No, I can't be bothered because it just drains money away.

Fucking hell, those Special Forces boxes get sold out quick. I was going to buy one at Burnaby's Future Shop today and it was gone in the afternoon!
Anyone experiencing a CTD during the grand campaign when the AI is taking their turns? My campaign as Great Britain is now broken because it chronically crashes whenever the Huron takes their turn. It's apparently a very common problem in the community, usually happening after 50-60 turns, and almost always with a Native American tribe.

Especially against Russia, since they love burning everything so much. Helps drain away troops from their armies, and makes for some awesome last-stand type battles if you use elite infantry.
Once campaign multiplayer comes out, we should re-enact world war 2, but in the 18th century!
Unfortunately we are limited to only major powers, which would leave out some key players.
[QUOTE=HolyCrusade;14009653]Unfortunately we are limited to only major powers, which would leave out some key players.[/QUOTE] France, Prussia, Russia, UK is really all we need. Maybe US.

Another thing, I wish this game would actually let you fucking ALT-TAB. This steam browser/steam chat in general in ETW is extremely laggy.
It would probably be easier to enact World War I considering we would have Austria, Prussia, France, England, Russia and the Ottomans.

Noooo! Scott Road just sold out their SF copies!
I love using two lines of 240 line infantry then having them open fire on charging indians.
This game is intense. I find it really hard to get used to naval battles. Land battles consists of me raping the absolute fuck out of the other army, but naval battles are weird to me.
FFFFFUUUUUUUUUUU!!! Empire: Total War keeps crashing because it whores so much memory. Whenever I have the camera over the region of Egypt, I can hear the sounds of ships being spammed 100000 times.

I really like boarding people and getting them to surrender.
Can you play past 1799 or do you get booted out of the campaign?
[QUOTE=tankkiller;14011440]Can you play past 1799 or do you get booted out of the campaign?[/QUOTE] I do believe that you can continue on.
Is the game as awesome as I think it is? I've played rome total war a tiny bit, so how would it compare to that?

I've been wondering, do I get to name my own ships?
Patch next week. [url]http://www.worthplaying.com/article.php?sid=60469[/url] [quote]Empire: Total War will maintain the series 3D battles, grand turn based campaign map and rich historical flavor while for the first time introducing 3D naval combat into the series. The Creative Assembly confirmed it is working on the first patch, scheduled for next week, for its just released RTS, fixing a trade route related issue and improve the game's stability/performance.
