So... when is it going to become an official update?
Aka, DEI being owned by CA and becoming integral to the game.
Only if CA makes a definitive edition of sorts
>>2162876Don't give them ideas.
Why would you want that?
>>2162867Hopefully never ever. Both dei and radious were without exception pure grade A milspec dogshit.
>>2162911Well, they're greedy and full of bad ideas
>>2162972Because vanilla R2 still shit after 12 years.I just want something good (for once) to happen to that game.At this point, it's going to be 2035 and there will be no R2 remaster+ yet.
>>2163571Aren't you already using the mod? What difference does it make if they turn this polished turd official?
>>2163830>Aren't you already using the mod? No. >What difference does it make if they turn this polished turd official?I just want to see the Workshop burn.
>>2162986What do you not like about it?
>>2163571Paypig retard
I like some of DEI's ideas, but not others. Pops in particular punishes conquest in a way that means your progress will be really slow.
>>2166711>PopsPops is one of the few good things the mod does. It's a fun system trying to manage pops to get the troops you want.The only downside is that it doesn't affect AI and the UI for it is clunky but thats more of a fault of R2 being not so mod friendly. Wish the games had a proper pop system where both the AI and player had to manage it for economic and military reasons.
>>2166578Arrogant and retarded developers.Lot of tiny useless modifiers.Non-intuitive logistic system.Pathetic combat balance based on 41 units army.Pathetic stratmap balance based on le vision.
>>2166578>deiLots of overlapping systems that usually don't works as advertised. Paradox school of design to punish you for map painting in a game where you only get to map paint, and likewise mostly ignorable after a point. Battles take gorillion + 1 year and sieges especially are even more of a slog. The AI isn't improved it's simply cheating more. Weaponized self-felation especially with the naming conventions, and don't get me wrong I don't mind some of it but I'd rather not have to learn bastardized scythian or play with google translate. AOR mechanics are usually well done but I already have those from mods with less baggage.>radiousOutright retardation with garrisons and usually a shitload of redundant low effort kitbash new units. Obnoxiously overshilled for how little it actually does.
>>2166884>DEIUnderstandable. The lack of localization to English is annoying. I had to download a mod for that as well. Have you tried some of the submods that make the combat faster, or is it not to your liking even with them?What mods do you like for Rome 2 instead ?
>>2166937Honestly I just have a personal bash of assorted mods, cannibalized dlc or parts of mods that I keep around for whenever I get the itch to play again.
>>2166817The problem with pops is the game isn't designed for it and there's no way to reinforce an army other than to crawl back to your home territory, letting the enemy retake whatever it wants. And if the enemy takes your territory, all your pops go bye bye.If the game was built around it it'd be fine, but it isn't so it sucks.
We must destroy DEI. It is destroying enterprises and all forms of media and shitting up society all over the world.
start by killing yourself
>>2166711i love that the pop system forces you to include shitter peasant units into your armies like proper auxiliaries
>>2167201>proper auxiliaries>actual citizenAnon...
>>2166884>Battles take gorillion + 1 year and sieges especially are even more of a slogPicrel was 6 in-game hours, i.e. 1h real time in afk mode.But regular battles isn't that badhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jqm3aUy8j-ohttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M_Vfw_waQoU
>>2166947Mah nigga. I did something like that, got the GC on the Imperator Augustus map mod, tweaked the Population (People of Rome) mod to work with all units, did some changes to victory conditions, added a mod called Greek Reforms to give upgradeable units to the Hellenic factions, added some other qol stuff, and good reskins. I like it.Honestly, the only thing I miss from DEI is changing capitals and selling regions.
