On Tropico, why do you need army bases. Do you battle other people? |

@Florinthus: Looks like you have similar taste in games to me! I agree that EUIII can be pretty slow, but it's rather good when you get into it. |

I know what you mean. I got my machine at the end of last summer, and it's hardly good enough for Shogun II's bad settings. It kinda disappoints me, along with a lack of mod tools. I like EU III because i like alternate history, and I've heard it described as the ultimate what if game. I love it Also, in tropico, you can be invaded by the US or USSR, but army bases are usually used to fight rebels and dissidents Edited by Florinthus, Jun 30 2011, 05:20 PM.

I'd get Shogun II if it would run on my computer. PC games are reaching the event horizon where my laptop can't handle them. Which alliance were you in, Arkiania? I was in the ODN waaay back in the day--in fact when I first joined up we just lost the Citrus War to the NPO. I saw some crazy times. |

Well I tried out the EUIII demo again and I did enjoy it more the second time through, and Chronicles is only $20 on Steam... And Art, I know your pain. That's why I've stopped keeping track of upcoming games |

Well personally prefer anything like Real Time Strategy or 3D ultra violence or blood and gore. Basically anything I can kill people in in the most brutal or cruel fashion. I wonder if I should be concerned over that, lol. |

Well after buying EUIII Chronicles on Steam I've found out that I can't run Divine Wind because I have a pile of manure for a graphics card (Steam has the wrong system requirements up), and I can't install only Heir to the Throne because of the way Steam installs things... Waiting on Steam support to get back to me on that. |

@drake2 Bummer mate, the maps in dw are very nice, which does require a better graphics card. When I downloaded it from steam it took the game about an hour and a half to download. I think it's only about a gigabyte right? You can download mods like MEIOU for HTTT that really change it for the better. That's why I recommend EU III over saw Shogun II, mainly because the graphics aren't so important, and secondly because the files are text based, so it's easy to mod yourself. I can custom make the game to my preferences easily. but no, in Shogun I can't, unless i understand binary. I'm kind of surprised though that your machine can't run DW, is it an older computer, or does the Graphics card need a replacement? |
