Remember Field of Glory Empires? There's going to be a "final patch" in near future that will adress the remaining issues and give the game a final layer of polish. Glad to see that it's actually happening>what is thisPretty cool grand strategy game that lets you take control of an ancient nation and lead it to glory. It has pretty detailed economy and nation building and is definitely a much better grand strategy game than anything Paracuck could come up with. The Decadence system it uses is also really clever because it solves the issue of "map painting" - if you mindlessly expand without thinking, your nation will crumble quickly BUT if you actually pay attention to your empire, develop its economy and invest in it's culture, it just might last longer than some of your rivalsAlso try out Fields of Glory Kingdoms, it's Crusader Kings but actually good
Buy an ad, and write it better wow you suck
>>2161285Sorry for liking a videogame, won't do that again
>>2161285>reeee this is vic 3!!!
>>2161333Isn't* fuck I ruined my own digits
>>2161264Great news. Does that mean all development will cease after this patch? Was hoping there would be more campaigns than grand and the Greek one
>>2161409Think they're still focusing on new content for Kingdoms. Empires hasn't gotten a patch in years, but there's still a big enough core community and cult following that the devs figured they'd do another patch for it
>>2161601Indeed, I'm part of that community. That's quite thoughful of the devs, usually a game that old and with a "sequel" out gets abandoned. Kingdoms is good as well but ancients strategy and tactics are right up my alley.
>>2161264Nice. What issues they are going to fix? Haven't played the game yet
>>2162245Apparently they are bringing the building browser from Kingdoms, essentially allowing you to choose what to build rather than rely entirely on rng
>>2162261Nah kingdoms building browser is worse>>2161264the problem with kingdoms is how every match plays the same because the legacy system, i feel like they fucked up a lot of things on kingdoms, but empire is solid
>>2162305> kingdoms building browser is worsehow so
>>2162325because while it offers more options, you have pick one or be stuck with all of the garbage options, unlike empires where you just reroll and be done with it
>>2162495You can pay authority and pick something else than the free garbage options. How much authority? Depends on the building. Those gradual fortress enhancements are always free.
>>2161264>game advertises itself as total war competitor>buy game>um actually to have fights you need to buy a different game and do a clunky save load bullshitDropped instantly and never looked back. I could understand the CK3 mod where you fought battles in Bannerlord, that was cool because direct control and it was just a mod but this shit is just a scam.
>>2162630They gave away Field of Glory 2 for free two months ago
>>2162564yeah but the extra options in the building browser are shit most of the time, thats what im saying, it would be much better if you could reroll buildings, even if it cost authority instead of that shitty browser
>>2162630>game advertises itself as total war competitorthis never happened
>>2162261>Apparently they are bringing the building browser from KingdomsThis is just the searchable browser, I don't think they are trying to implement the authority buying system since authority doesn't even exist in Empires and they would have to work out an entirely new system
>>2164518Legacy points maybe?
>>2161264>It has pretty detailed economy and nation buildingAfter playing the game, this is a blatant lie
>>2161264
is the patch up already?they promised it like few years ago and i lost interest i even ignored kingdoms because of their laziness
>>2168180nope, even the beta hasn't started yet. frog dev timelines please understand
>>2168462fuck these retards, back then I was getting into modding it and noticed that it need some extra care, wanted make my own fan patch and share but I get info that they plan release final patch, so I waited, waited and lose interestchanged PC in meantime, not sure where the patch files are and forgot how to mod it anyway
Ageod is just one Philippe now. The more senior Philippe left and founded a new studio that focuses on releasing more games and at a faster pace than Ageod ever did.https://store.steampowered.com/developer/sgs/
>>2168778Thibaut had already left a year before Empires released iircalso damn those are some gnarly UIs, they make AGEOD look polished
