No because neither of those games had good mod tools, the closest thing to an overhaul was probably The Blue and the Gray for ETW. Also if you didn't know, Europa Barbarorum 2 is being developed for Medieval 2.

i changed my mind, am not buying the game on release, ill buy it in a sale deluxe editionwhen all the crappy dlc are out for 8 euros or something and only if there are mods. ETW and Napoleon all have been huge let downs, i just hate this engine. its simply not fit for melee combat.

So I guess... the mods for Empire and Napoleon... are shit. Just like I said earlier. And thus transcends opinion and lands squarely in the jaw of fact.

And yeah, I already downloaded Kingdoms off of Steam as I eagerly await more Roman bad assery. Though at this rate, Rome 2 will be out next year probably.

darthmod DMUC is the best mod for empire, give it a try , he is alteady at release 6.9, thats more relaeses then stainless steel who are at 6.4 for medival 2 ( my favorite med2 mod)

all modders deserve respect nonetheless. Sega fucked them in the butt with the empire engine not getting modding tools, cause they wanted to make 2 more milky pispoor games out of this junk engine and modders werent allowed to get in their way.

I meant melee, cause shogun 2 is all about melee but the demo really killed the hype for me, it looked butt ugly and copy paste , no love whatsoever for the era.

Yes, hence the mods being shit because of TCA being twats and ensuring that any mods out there will be shit.

Also lol

The whorification of TF2 continues. Also I suppose that preorders were very low for the game so they had to rely on their idiot TF2 customers.

Similarly to Crysis 2, DX11 won't be available at launch. It will be patched in 2-4 weeks later.

Well at least this time the initial lack of dx11 will be compensated with solid gameplay, unlike Crysis 2 Cool Face

They are good APIs, from actuals coders I have read very few complains while many praise them. Also many emulators now use DX10+ because it can do more/better/faster stuff and hell now even Carmack has been converted: http://www.nfohump.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=1441290#1441290

But they are hardly ever used (properly), for a couple of reasons, one is consoles, another is the Vista fiasco/FUD campaign..

Now that Win7 has been accepted as a gaming OS and companies have to start to worry about making their graphics engine ready for Xbox 3 and it's DX11+ abilities, you will see more and more engines and games incorporating DX11 features (like Epic did, or like Capcom explained making PC games might not be very profitable for them, but for example by adding DX11 features in Lost Planet 2, they gain experience that will be valuable to them when the next Xbox launches).

Pre-order Shogun 2, unlock Team Fortress 2 goodies

Quote:
Sega has teamed up with Valve and is offering Team Fortress 2 bonuses for those who pre-order Total War: Shogun 2 on Steam.

Getting your money down early will score you the 'Fan 'O War', a Level 5 Gunbai for the Scout, the 'Conniver's Kunai', a Level 1 Kunai for the Spy, 'The Concheror', a Level 5 Sashimono for the Soldier and the 'Half-Zatoichi' and a Level 5 Katana for the Demo Man and Soldier.

The pre-order will also unlock a number of new hats for each class. A samurai topknot for the Heavy, a kabuto helmet for the Demo Man, a geisha hairdo for the Medic and a "terrifying" oni mask for the Spy.


Another derp-worthy news Laughing

Eurogamer review: http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2011-03-11-total-war-shogun-2-review?page=3

It got 9/10, but the scores mean shit now. Basing on what I read in that review I'm glad I didn't preordered it.
