bought it all on steam over xmas.. Already had the base game when it came out. All the other content came to 10 bux... I'd wait for another sale, I have not seen a release for gold either.

So, is the upcoming Shogun 2 Gold Edition (EU version) worth buying? I don't care about the extra clans and units, so: are the 2 additional campaigns any good? Or should I just buy the base game for 1/3 price, at a bargain of EUR 10?

Just get vanilla + Blood Pack, Sengoku Jidai + Saints and Heroes and you're good to go;
The gold edition is total overkill for casual total war players like me.. Even if i'd start playing it now i wont be done with it until Rome 2 comes out.
Plus from what i've read Rise of the Samurai is slower, harder, it has lesser unit diversity, samurai units are rare.. and the gameplay in Fall of the Samurai is different with the gunpowder units relying more on positioning and timing and less on flanking and charging the enemy. Noobish opinion though, i've yet to start playing this game seriously.. and i love total war.. Sad

Well, I've spent hundreds of hours with Rome and Medieval 2 each. Around 60-70 with Empire. Plus I really loved the first Shogun game.

I'm going to get the gold edition once I have saved up enough money to buy a decent VGA. And I hope it is soon because I'm itching for some samurai action.

I am not able to find the latest patch for this game.

Total.War.Shogun.2.Fall.of.the.Samurai-SKIDROW is somewhat up to date but I doubt Darthmod will work as intended unless I have the latest patch installed. Under what name is it released?

I only played the vanilla at the time when it came out but would really like to try out both of the additional campaigns and Darthmod before Rome II comes along.

5918 is the current build if that's helpful.
v1.1.0 build 5918.363609 is the complete string, I checked it a minute ago. Don't know if there's a scene/p2p release.

Thanks, the 5918 build number helped me out but only so that I could find out that there is no crack for the latest patch. The gold edition has been released but only in physical format. I guess crackers are waiting for the digital version, those lazy sods Razz.

It would seem you can run patch 21 or maybe 22 with Darthmod 4.4 but I think I'm going to wait and hope that there will be a scene release of the Gold Edition or something so that I can run the latest Darthmod.

The way I see it, every life is a pile of good things and bad things. The good things don’t always soften the bad things, but vice versa, the bad things don’t always spoil the good things and make them unimportant.

so, finally got this in the last sale (this now completes my total war collection .. except shogun 1 and medieval 1 obviously).

But ...

Now i installed darth mod (that was a nobrainer thing to do imho).

But the game is freaking unfair lol.

I mean, i start and one clan after another declares war on me. I get attacked by several clans with full stacks and i hardly have the gold to upkeed 3/4 stacked army lol.

And they just keep coming and coming (i can't even move away from my castle without getting attacked the same round rofl).

Is this freaking normal or am i missing something ?

I don't knwo how far you have gotten but one of the big complaints about this game was the realm split that occurs, which basically makes the whole map attack you when you get too powerful, even your allies get a big reduction in how much they like you and may attack you. Although I do believe there are some mods to remove this.

Why was darth mod a nobrainer? Especially since you find it unfair ? I remember him at one time replacing the advizor icon with darth vader Rolling Eyes so i never tried mods from that guy ever since

figured it out. I tried to build my first armies with too many too expansive units. Basically all you have to do, is make stacks full of the cheapest available units and you'll be fine rofl.

But playing this, i can't wait for rome 2 Smile

I wouldn't use darthmod anymore, it's simply too depreciated, particularly for the original Shogun 2.
It also trivializes diplomacy to the point where it's effortless to maintain relations with every clan on the map.

The battle changes aren't too bad, but the strategic changes just have problems everywhere.

yeah i tried vanilla as well and didn't see much difference (in the big picture). But using stacks of cheap ass "lance" unities seems to solve the issue. Just don't try to build armies woth too many special units (like archers and sword samurai) and you get past the initial stage just fine Smile


But still ... worst TW game ever. DO WANT rome2 Smile

A small 25 MB update downloaded, from what I can tell it just added the launcher used in Rome 2, I guess the other Total War games will get that too then?

Also a 1.5 update beta is available unless someone just made a mistake and copied it from Rome 2. Razz

How do I remove the unit cap for hero units in Custom Battle mode?

Why did they even include the "1 per army" limitation in a mode like that... I can't wrap my mind around it.

I appreciate any help and advice on how to uncap the heroes. Smile

Try looking on the TWC forums for an answer, I suppose.

Tried, alas I couldn't find it there. Weird. I thought this would be one of the first things for someone to 'fix'.
