God, I forgot how much the AI sucked if you formed a defensive line (I usually have archers, slingers and catapults behind a defensive line of Spears with swords and axes covering the flanks). They usually just throw themselves at you and end up routing like the fucking plebs that they are.

Then I'll just have my mounted cavalry mop up the rest

AI was never amazing when you're defending/sieging . On the field they're not as bad, but obviously won't do as well as real people.

It makes me long for the combat of Medieval 2, where the AI actually changed tactics according to how you play.

...and it makes me fear for medieval 3 of they continue using their current engine.

They're using this engine for Warhammer I believe.

Well some bad news. I was about to update this because of my new i5 and all that, but for some reason the game crashes on me each and every time I try to load it. Checked the mods, unticked some things, did everything I could. I still get met with a crash.

So I guess I'm calling a halt to it here. We can at least take solace in the fact we took over 3/4th's of Great Britain I suppose.

I might do the same thing with Fallout 4 down the line once everyone plays it and got it out of their system, but for now I'll have to end it. Kind of a bummer, but I suppose the updates were getting sparse anyway.

This is what happens when you don't play as vikings.

Clearly a sign from the Lord on high that you are unworthy.

BURN THE WITCH!

Luciana · October 20, 2015, 08:21:20 PM

It's whatever. I'm just doing Ostrogoths now since they can recruit Roman soldiers AND have phalanx. Clearly an OP faction.

I won't be updating though.
