Warhamerfags are the biggest corpo cocksuckers this side of the industry. They keep defending this company's retardation and make excuses for them all because they see their favourite BLINGY OF BLONGOFUCK character on their shelf get animated in a total war game. Fucking loathsome shiteaters to the last that rotted the company by abetting their worst practices.
>>722548920dis nigga crying about some literal whos online KWAB!
>>722548920I love TWW but am highly critical of CA. They are fucking retarded for not investing what would be a relatively minimal amount of resources to push out a DLC every 3 months that would basically print money. It is an IP they could easily milk for another 5 years but are doing everything they can to strangle it despite being their only lifeline at the moment.
>>722549165You as in YOU YOURSELF have to understand that the Wamham rot runs deep. The fucking GAME DESIGN of every other Total War game is fucking Wamham at this point. STOP SLOPPING SHIT YOU FUCK
>>722548920>some factions AI outright doesn't work for more than half a year and counting>CA shills pretend this is somehow acceptableFantasoy manchildren ruined this company
>>722549497The rot started before TWW blew up. CA lost whatever personnel actually understood game design and had technical knowledge to make a better engine etc. The problem isn't TWW itself, it is their designers are quantifiably retarded and the game succeeded in spite of them not because of them. At this point only CA Sophia have the ability to unfuck things from a technical perspective, but they are still slaved to the retards making the shitty overall bad game design decisions.
>>722549687Literally nobody is saying that. The current shitshow is BECAUSE people are saying it's unacceptable. Why are the fuck are you pretending it's the opposite?
>>722549840>the Bulgarians are the only people left to rely onWe're doomed.
>>722550161UK with its diversity and inclusion was doomed long time ago. TWWH40k will be dogshite, I'm 100% sure od it.>>722549687History fags coping hard like always, meanwhile twwh3 is more popular than all history games combined.
>>722550534>popularity = goodPopularity through Warhammer has ruined Total War. They tapped into the Stockholm'ed playerbase of GW that will always fork over money and defend their corporate overlords just to buy the next overpriced model.
>>722549993if it wasn't for legend bringing attention to it no one would have cared, the proof is how long this has been going on for>>722550534>its popular therefore its good!kill yourself you braindead zoomer
>>722550775Total War has been bad since Empire. Shogun 2 and Attila were brief bright spots, but CA has been on a downward spiral for the better part of a decade. "But muh fantasy ruined TW" is extremely disingenuous, they just did Warhammer when they were at their most greedy.
>>722551178And I'm saying I can forgive 10 Empires and 5 Napoleons rather than what happened when they shifted to Warhammer. It rotted their philosophy inside and out where that's the only thing they know how to make now, even the non-Wamham games are basically shitty versions of the Wamham games.
>>722551250The rot started with Empire, continued with Rome 2, and became readily apparent with Warhammer. It's a straight line down and you insist on one data point. Rome 2 in particular did infinitely more damage to the franchise than Warhammer ever did, simply due to the various mechanical changes.
>>722548920They're obsessed with their toys and will defend any company that animates their toys to the death. They love eating shit.
Can I argue too? I don't really know anything about the current situation though
>>722551452>afraid of arguing from a position of ignorance>on /v/
>>722551347Empire was a buggy mess but it was trying to be ambitious. It just missed the mark. The great sin of CA is not going back and fixing it like at all and instead opted to just release a new game that's basically Empire 2-1.>>722551372I have never seen people defend something as retarded as BLOOD PACKS and literally make excuses for the company as to why they need to resell you fucking blood damage.
>>722551523Like EVERYONE knows why Blood Packs exist. But the wamham retards created this fucking myth that it's to lower the age rating and CA just adopted the fucking lie. Everytime somebody repeats the lie, they are always wamham retards.
>>722548920Can't wait for the next Rome 2 reskin!
>>722550534>History fags coping hard like always, meanwhile twwh3 is more popular than all history games combined.If you and the retarded exec's at CA would remove head from ass. CA could have printed money with a real advancement in their game-play by adding just even a SEMBLANCE of grand strategy, cash would have been printed from us "history fags". CA burned the fans that made them a name before it was common in gameland.
>>722551178>they just did Warhammer when they were at their most greedyThe funnier part is that they basically stumbled into it because GW was killing off the IP so they were finally willing to license it out. Only for TWW to blow up and have zero ways to really capitalise on its success.
>>722551250>It rotted their philosophy inside and outThey were already making the same sort of stupid design choices and half assed effort well prior to TWW. The funny part is they actually had to put in more effort for their DLCs for TWW compared to past TWW by virtue of reskinned units/factions no longer being as simple as changing one colour on an existing model. Just look at the DLC shenanigans for Shogun 2 or Rome 2 and tell me with a straight face this sort of low effort wasn't already par for the course.
>>722551827CA and GW, two absolutely retarded self-sabotaging UK companies that are clearly made for each other
They really should just get the game in a good enough state and pull the plug on content, its kinda wild how much they've "supported" WH3 after that initial dogshit launch.
>>72255197840k TW is gonna be fun, now that we're in the "muh Primaris, muh Custodes" era.
>>722551978It was a match made in heaven. Or hell depending on your perspective.
>>722552051>40k TW is gonna be funHERE WE FUCKING GO AGAIN
>>722552113Reading comprehension.
>>722552132Sorry, kneejerk reaction
Unironically thinking that 40k total war is happening is the dumbest thing imaginable.Its never ever ever gonna happen its completely incompatable with total wars gameplay in every way possible
>>722552245CA are capable of making games that aren't just carbon copies of TW. It would obviously have different mechanics but the foundation is more or less the same.
>>722552045If they announced that the game was getting sunsetted after this coming DLC it wouldn't really surprise me. Though they are throwing money away by not at least shitting out a final DLC with Nagash and Thanquol. There is also Dogs of War which they appear to be doing. And they still need to do Monkey King which would probably involve the Cathay Fire Dragon as well. Besides that Boris Toddbringer becoming a proper LL which would be an easy FLC to sneak in somewhere unless they can think of enough Ulric based stuff and faction mechanic to push as a LL DLC. But at that point they will more or less have run their course.
>>722552245I agree but CA definitely wants it, it mostly comes down to whether GW will play ball or not. And that might be hinging upon how well DoW4 does.
>>722552391>NagashHopefully not, the less End Times(proto AoS) the better
>>722552245True they wouldn't touch Warhammer 40k until they at least figured out that gameplay style via a late 19th century-ww1 game....then from there doing a WW2 and early cold war era gameOnce you figured out those mechanics you can now do a 40k
>>722552731Even if they don't make Nagash a regular LL I imagine they will add his faction with Neferata as the LL and the campaign goal will be resurrecting him. The only question is would his model be the good original one, or the shitty AoS one.
>>722552740If CA can pull of something like the Wargame series but for 40k then kudos to them for thinking outside the box, but they don't have the stones nor the brains for that.
>>722553105The Men of War series is the better framework for a 40k game.
>>722553178I say Wargame because its macro-gameplay is something no other RTR/RTS has even replicated. Its like holding down zones in Company of Heroes/ Dawn of War but made more complex and bigger that correlates well with an overworld.Like imagine this gameplay https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IHWxNK6QFJw but with something with a 40k skin on it that's also not just limited to an Earth-like map.
>>722552045>and pull the plug on contentthey only have like what, 1 or 2 DLCs left before this exact thing happens, minus the "leaving the game in a good state" of course, you'll have to pray modders can fix the myriad of issues this game will be left with after they drop support and move onto their new TW game.
>>722553650Realistically once the game is dropped by CA then modders will be able to actually open it up significantly more without risk of future content getting pulled. That was the main deterrent for why so much has been held back by modders as more and more of the technical hurdles have been overcome across the years. Even just from a technical perspective knowing what the finalised code is helps greatly since you generally don't have to worry about CA making code breaking changes with another patch out of nowhere. You are right though, we can only hope that CA at least unfucks it enough to be playable in the final patch so there is something to even work with.
