And to add to all this pile of ****, every single online game consist of cavalry charge at the beginning, its so f***** repetitive, and battles barely last for more than 5 minutes. WTF? You can even recruit units that cost less and completely decimate more expensive units of the same kind. Tagmeta cav can kill them without losing more than 15 soldiers. They have ele, which cost 1/4 (!!!!!) of ur army but barely do anything. WTF? Sassanids are also so bad its quite unbelievable considering they were a powerhouse back then. But no!! Their cav is so bad they cant even compete with other faction's cavs. Known for their cav power you would expect them to have a strong cavalry advantage. You would think the huns are good but no they are useless. Every single F***** faction have the same exact unit roster. Quick battles are filled with droppers and wannabees. The battles barely last any time giving u no real tactics to finish off. You need to survive to win and not conquer the entire world!! However, if you are gonna buy it for the online games and quick battles then you are at the wrong game. I would say its not true, so many new features, slick ui, and a brand new way of playing total wars. I would say If you are buying the game to play the campaign then its a must have. If you are buying the game to play the campaign then its a must have. It can be very difficult and frustrating at times but overall we did enjoy playing Total War: Attila.
There are some technical difficulties and we had trouble getting the game to run smoothly as its such a large game but as soon as we got past this, it was a great, fun game and definitely the addition to this brilliant series that we’ve been waiting for. Even though Creative Assembly have worked on their menus to shorten and simplify them, they are still quite complicated and can be frustrating at times. The life like battles are thrilling, there are quite a few menus and screens, which take a while to get used to. It’s now possible for horde tribes to survive out on the road without having to have a static base. With this new add on comes some cool new abilities. Trouble comes in many forms, bad weather, court intrigues, diplomatic crises with others and plagues, all of which makes surviving a struggle. With the chosen tribe,the player must try survive and profit from the collapse of order. Total War: Attila focuses on the fall of the empire, the player chooses from a selection of tribes, each tribe representing different campaigns, which means each tribe offers their own challenges and advantages for the player.
Total War: Attila is what Rome II should have been, with its dynamic gameplay, this add on is so much more compelling. Total War: Attila takes you back to the Dark ages, way back to 395AD. Total War: Attila takes you back to the Dark Sega’s Creative Assembly has added another great addition to its Total War strategy game series. Sega’s Creative Assembly has added another great addition to its Total War strategy game series. This is my first ever review I felt motivated to write, go figure. Also I dont understand why 39 people (at the moment of writing this pulled the score down when I haven't read a single negative review from those who played it. Them battles are the most cinematic I've seen from a TW game yet. This is not a dlc or expansion this is a standalone TW game that happens to be in Europe. also you won't really have time to use battle animations, but I'm sure that some people will come and say how easy it is for them and unlike "random other rts from the rose tinted past". Battles do not feel like a chore as I had to use more tactics in just my first few than in half a campaign for rome. Game is generally harder than rome 2, think shogun 2. This is same for your enemies need to finish them utterly or they'll come back suddenly.
Your troops will fight to the end if they get a moments rest after each time they break thus making the roman chess board formations useful. Other random points: Boat battles are fun finally really fun. neighbours readily do diplomacy with you and attack you in the back and they generally use every option thats aviable to the player. As for the campaign it hasn't been out that long but already I can see a lot of quality changes. Sadly you'll have to wait for the blood dlc because ratings and what not, but it already is brutal. Its makes rome look like sims, and the whole coloring is like those visceral nineties medieval movies with spit and blood. The burning buildings in the sight of the setting sun and the general carnage are an amazing up from rome two. I couldn't stop giggling while I lost my first battle it was amazing fire arrows raining people dieing in the ditches while Norsemen chopped at each other in a boat battle.
