Post; Total War ROME


I just found out that this game is being used by the history channel for their new series Decisive Battles. I have Total MEDIEVAL War and it kicks some serious butt.

Anyone played the TW Rome game??

I'm not sure, but I can't wait to get it. Medieval: Total War was awesome!

Yep i got it. Its pretty good, If you have a powerful computer it looks downright ammazing 5000+ men on the screen at once. Ill tell you what the Greeks and Spartans in that game are damn near impossible! If you dont have at least twice as many men they will slaughter you. I never realised how important spearmen really were back then intill I played the game.

I'm downloading the demo right now and I wonder how it will look like on my computer. I guess I'll have to choose minimum settings.

Dude the demo is HORRIBLE. It ran at like 15 fps with 500 guys on the screen. I can get 40 fps with 5000 guys on the screen now. They somehow forgot to add videocard support to it so old vid cards would run just as fast as the newest $500 top of the line cards.

Where did you get those 500 men from? I just had a tutorial and a small battle playing Hannibal in the battle of Trebia.

I played it with the lowest details set, but it still looked amazing. I barely can imagine what it will look like as soon as i have a better CPU.
