  • Fracking awesome. Just played through the tutorial and two historical battles of the demo and I have to say, I am impressed. The sea battle especially was visually astonishing, I'm surprised my computer survived it without exploding. Anyway, a great game for anyone interested in 1800th century warfare and a MUST-BUY for any and all Total War fans. WebOnion out.

  • damn it.

    They said februari 4th to me when I asked in a local game shop two weeks ago.

    Stupid fucks... Imagine the irritation when I noticed that I have to wait another full month for this epic game... fuuuuu-

  • this is the best new feature of all total war games since shogun and it is even well done, sweet!

    finally total war goes directx10 - nice!

  • Anybody know what countries you can be in this game??? I know that England, East India Trading Company, French and Americans are in, but who else???

  • sweden, spain, prussia and zulu i think

  • dont forget aztecs mays and apaches

  • British i will lead you to victory.

     Get the guns

  • dang it comes out in 2009 though

  • i neeeeeddd this game

  • wasn't much point of that comment.

  • Long LIve the Total War Games! And Empire Total war will be its golden age! hahahah!

    *March of the British Granadiers Plays*

    To victory!

  • game design is definetly an art form

  • i been waited this game for 10 long year since shogun finally this gonna come i think i just sh324t myself :) i love the musket and poweder and i forget bloody hell from peopel blown up to peices

  • i have been a fan of the series since the first medieval and every one has been great.

    i cant wait for empire

  • OHH YEAH!! its gona rock!!

  • indeed but they always end up where they dont belong....like this vid.

    good upload btw

  • why do these shitty comments plague every video?

  • FUCK all that historical TALK. EMPIRE TOTAL WAE IS GONNA FUCKING OWN. The total war games never cease to amaze me X)

  • so read some books and learn,just becouse u are well from UK and are a jew and just babling about this becouse u are an nasjonalist and belifer in your religion. i dont hate or have anything negative about jews or the UK, i just get mad when foolsjust talking shit

  • actually the british empire with it huge resources should be able to defeat the axis powers before it becomes too strong but it is the incapable generals of the empire that cause it to fall. if it is the jews who lead the war, the war will be over before it is even call world war 2. see the 6 day war how a huge army of the arabs got defeated by israel in just 6 days.

  • lol u fool. that was a fiffernet time, and the "huge" resoucse was comming from Canada and Norway, and norway was taking so fast so then that source was cut.And the jews didnt do a shit under ww2, and if they gt the chance the would probleby not take it

  • it is the incapable generals of the empire that caused it to fall. if it is the jews who lead the war, it will be different. the jews were humilated in ww2, and these prove their anger if they were made generals. the jews were a very smart race but rebellious too but against the nazis, they will proved useful. but after the war, it is harder to get rid of them.

  • so the overall conclusion is the incapable generals of the empire that caused it to fall. a good general will know how to continue its resources from all over the world to keep coming to its aid. the british failed to produce one great generals. maybe if britian is not racist and set equality at that time, they can produce some really good general from some race they conquered.

  • @assass55

    u are a fool. u do not know what a capable general can do. britan at that time is so rich, all it needs to do is how to make its resources keep coming. the royal navy should know how to counter the submarines of the germans fast if it has a capable general. the empire is so huge and powerful but fragile at the hands of incapable rulers and generals.

  • lol well first it was racistic in Europe that time and still is,so that u can't change lol, and when u say England was / is so power full why did they allmost lose the war,, it was 1 small desision the the germans took wrong, and that was to wait a half year to atack, and thats pure luck,and montgomery and so on was good generals,just not good tactisians, and u can't denie that if it havent been for the norwegian merchant fleet England would not be capeble to win over the axisthat importantfight

  • plz u guys need to understand no empire so huge can last forever. the british empire is the largest empire the world has ever seen but it has so many races and religions. world war 2 is the one that defeated the empire. if one major power like usa fight against british empire alone for resources gathering, it is asking for death. usa is lucky it got ww2 to help it, or the british empire will always be the one calling the shots.

  • omg you ppl are going to fight over this. The ally powers won the war the axis powers lost. Is that better?

  • Well this is related to the video,

    Yes because of USA it was only a matter of time before we won the war but just because things were bad for the UK didn't mean we were losing.

    Its was pretty likely that Russia would have taken over much more of Europe without the USA but Britain, due to the RAF was not going to be invaded any time soon. The end would have been slower but the result would have most likely have been the same.

  • incase anyone is reading this who finds me offensive I dont hate americans I find many of them to be great people and yes im from the UK but sometimes when I hear the redkneck "we baled you outta 2world wars crap" it pisses me off since its always one point of view when im told that only one nation suffered (US) when it was many more hell even germany suffered too much in the end so this is me saying my apologise

  • daniel goes to lidl every day to buy his rations

  • hey does anyone know if i can play this with vista?

  • well we all know of all the countries in scandinavia sweden was the msot succesfully one get your facts.

  • a question i can play rome total war on everything highest setting with no lag at all will i be able to play this game on pretty good settings? i want too atleast be able too play with huge army will i be able too do that, thats why i like total war series pls answer:P

  • god... it's more real than the reality itself

  • holy crap that looks good :D :D :D

    can't wait. finally a good strategy game from the pre napoleonic - napolionic period :D

  • Finally a game got the redcoats uniforms right, what a relief.

    Can't wait to squash any rebellion those farmers with pitch forks try to launch!

    This game looks awesome.

  • Stop all this stuff...

    ¡ VIVA ESPAÑA!

  • i hope you can play as denmark in this game, because denmark had the worlds 2nd biggest navy in 1590's to late 1700's xD

  • ur dum maybe ur confusin ireland with scotland see ireland is a independant country northern ireland however is occupied by the british oh also since im from ireland im celtish not british.

  • lol americans are such asses

    accept it your mongrels of other cultures

    its why youy make such a hash of everything

    and the irish bloke just probably dsoesnt know where ireland

  • im looking to buy a new pc mainly for this can someone tell me what i should get,how much memory,video card etc?

  • maybe next time they will do a world war 2 total war...'cause you can see how the games evolved on with the time...so...who knows!?

  • no revolutionary war.

  • I have been waiting since medieval total war for naval battles!

  • srry when i wrote that i was tired and i was on a PS3 it was hard to type what i said was

    all u r sayin britan was fabulous then how did some farmers in the bushes with hunting rifles beat the most desiplened and largest army in the world. also we beat the largest armada ever assembled with rowboats that had canons put on them.

  • If you type up Empire Total War on Wikipedia, look at the picture, more specifically, the rating. It's a TBC placed over an M rating. Does that mean this game could be rated M?

  • do anyone think i can run this game with my computer? this is not showing off i just want this game to run properly on my computer :)

    AMD 9500 quad 2.0 ghz, 3gb ram, gt8800 512 mb

  • Its AMAZING! how these days nobody can believe how britain shaped most of the world we have today I mean some of our mistakes are clearly noted for example USA lol joking

  • can anyone honestly think of a single weakness the brittish empire had?

    we had amazing infantry and the worlds best navy

    france prepare to be owned AGAIN

  • greed

  • hide yourself on your island british pussy ;)

  • LOL our island was practically a fortress its why we were never drug down by a bunch of pussies

  • acctually if it wasnt for american support britan would have lost during WWII even if u were beatin the germans in the air britan would not have surrvived an all out invasion even though the island was well fortified germany would have blown right through. also remember the normandy coast seemed to be an unbeatable fortress and see what happened we plowed right through them.

  • Yeah we english, canadian, scottish, welsh, indian and american you moron

  • i no but america took the brunt of the invasion on utah and omaha i no you all had a great deal fighting but if america wasnt there you might not have won or atleast would have taken heavy loses k.

  • so that means we did nothing for the whole war because thats how it sounds I could'nt call being bombed all night and then shooting down german pilots in the day doing nothing granted the US did send supplies but isn't that what allies do? and today most allies wage war together was'nt intirely the same back then was it pearl harbour made the "sleeping giant" wake up

  • no im saying you guys did alot all im sayin is that if it wasnt for america you wouldnt have won the war i dont see y u got to make it sound worse than it is thats all im sayin k.

  • so having our homes bombed day and nyt makes it swnd worse WTF is wrong with u is 9/11 the only attack you guys treat with such seriousness and importance to the world because its not the only thing that swnds bad ok jeez americans some r brilliant people and then you meet the fucking retards

  • um i didnt say anything about 9/11 but we dont treat like the most important thing. lattly we been talkin about since its the anniversarry on thursday also wat does swnd mean.

  • its sound its text language but you wouldnt know that clearly and u all do its all u guys fucking declare war about these days all that shite about where were u when the towers fell well i was at school and i had no idea it was important until i was older incase and republicans watching care

  • hey we had every right to invade alfganistan but bush is a fucking moron he wanted to fininsh what his dad started in iraqanother thing republicans are gay all they care about is getting rich off of cooperations our country sucks right now because bush is presidant hopefully when obomas elected all that will change.

  • I admit fighting the taliban was the good decision but invading iraq was pointless it has resulted in even more hate towards western people because we seem to invade people at will for no cause even iran seems to be on the line of war because they make nuclear reactors

  • LOL! American? It was Canada that had to send thousands of troops over to Britain. It was the Canadians and British pilots that shot down the thousands of German war planes. America had little to do with The Battle For Britain.

  • no duh since canda was a british common welth it was pretty much one of th only sections of british teritorys that wasnt under siege. but i mean in the war over all america sent the most supplies even though our convoys were bein blown to shit by u-boats we kept sending materials to save your asses aight.

  • all u r sayin britan was flalous then how then how did some americans in the bushes the most desiplened and largest army in the world. also we beat the largest navy in the world with basiclly cargo ships.

  • but the fact we are a tiny little island and we conquored a quateer of the world is one of the greatest achievements EVER

    and how could we get support to our men in america if they were fighting across the atlantic

    it would have taken us months to get there

    you only beat us because you hid and fought a guerilla war and like it or not we made america and you all have brtish descndants

  • nope im irish so uh fuck u and give back north ireland u english bastard.

  • wtf i can't wait that long!

  • damn i cant wait for this i soo much want to play it i cant belive im going to play this in febuary 2009(almost half year from now :P)

  • i better be allowed to exterminate native americans, enslave africans, drug the entire nation of china, subdue the middle east, and instigate civil wars in foreign places. just like the good ol white devil that i am.

  • i want a more complex alliance system and a more complex relationships between the various states (much more complex that in medieval 2, but it's progress), like if you have weak relations to your allies, they may bail you when you're declaring war upon someone. i want major and important events to be triggered automatically. my dream would be if the rome total war series had more depth and were more complex, because when i'm playing some total war game i feel i'm just an isolated state with no

  • what i've always felt have been lacking in the total war series is the part of being an state, a nation, in the actual era. often it feels so "lifeless" (those who have played the europa universalis series know perhaps what i mean). when i'm a certain nation, i want some of the nation's history to be correct and i want important historically events being trigged automatically in as you play the game.

  • you rauding- i completely agree.

  • Couldn't help but notice the gun ports were open when they hadnt seen the enemy yet.

    looks tres cool though.

  • this is gonna be a game an a half..maybe even two thirds.

  • its gonna be the best pc game ever but the naval battles arent such an inovation i mean empire glory have naval battles with all that shit that this game its going to have

  • Can't wait to play as Prussia!!!

  • I LOVE total war

  • Wow..... this will be completely stunning.... i can't wait!

  • im astart savin for new componets so it runs like a dream, unless they make it so only supercomputers can run it. *cough crysis cough*

  • lol! too right mate:P

  • OMFG IS THIS REAL?

    I CAN'T WAIT

    (i wouldnt have seen this video without your jawsus comment XD)

  • Thanks LeShizzle

  • AND DAVID!

  • Finally naval battles =) Can't wait ^^

  • ugghh wanna play it

  • So what the fuck? I read some sites and forums...there is two release dates. Is it November 08 or February 09?

  • It is coming out next year

  • I see. Thanks!

  • i hope a WWI or modern war.

  • they might have done but look at company of heroes they basically nailed that area

  • couldnt agree more downzymcfc4. and i dont think total war is of the modern era status. with the huge masses of soldiers i would say this is fartherest it would go (with success) huge fan of the the total war series

  • what do u think theyll make after this?

  • Rome:TW 2 according to them iirc.

  • those who think that america is going to kick ass are wrong they didn't relied on soldiers that where trained more on militia's those that wanna control all trade routes on teh see should take the dutch

  • when whil it appear?

  • I would have preferred a new Dark Ages or Samurai game....

  • There is a Samurai type Total War its called ShoGun

  • That was one of the earlier ones made. old as crap game, but still good

  • i have it. it s good

  • yea, that was the first one right?

  • " WOW " It's a ship, thats amazing.

    Can't wait to play ;-)

  • yeah great!

  • People have probably answered this question already but does anybody know when the release date is. I thought it was this winter 2008 but then i went onto sega and it said winter 2009!! Anyone got any ideas?

  • 6th of Feb next year ;)

  • finally they do a game on guns! i got rome and medieval2 but in medieval2 the gunners r kinda dumb lol. so hope it's gonna be great!

  • why not longer! by the way this looks alot like the opening scene for master and commander. the midshipman spots a ship throught his telescope by going left and right but unlike this he calls for the captain. jus looking at this gets me excited! btw the game is coming out january or febuary 2009. jus looked at the wesite for the details :(

  • i wish it was longer

  • I just got a hard on

  • Judging from what i seen in other clips and traielrs....my computer will most definatly explode or melt when installing this!!!

  • cant wait till it comes out XD

  • Does anyone know if you can play Holland as a faction?

    They were one of the greatest empires in the 17th or 18th century.

  • cant wait..Sweden will rule the world when i get my hands on EmpireTW hehe

  • I will play as Sweden to :P

  • Yeah we ruled under the 1600 century so now i will take us further into 1700-1800 =D

  • requirements and release date for europe?

  • They are showing off naval battles more because it is a new thing to the Total War Series.

  • Thats why its called a teaser. Ottoman Empire and Spain are going to be massive but erroding like the Britons in Medieval 2 expansion. Britain, France and Russia will be the emerging darlings.

  • If i can play medieval 2 total war . Do you think that my computer is going to be able to take Empire:total war???

  • most likely

  • If that was the ingame graphics... God Bless my PC... lol

  • in this game, as a european power will i be able to enslave africans and exterminate indigenous peoples from around the world, and perhpas sell drugs to the chinese against their will?

  • The map is Americas and to India so no china and about the slaves, i heard its going to present but not complete to not offend people (just wait for the mods lol)

  • it would not be offensive- so long as it is not glorified and realistically depicts the brutality of the slave trade. i think people will appreciate it, just like people appreciate a movie which gratuitisly depicts crime against humanity in history- such as the movie "The Pianist" or "Schnidlers List" or "Roots".

  • I think it's safe to say that if i buy that game for my computer my pc will implode

    i need a new one methinks

  • I've been on the ETW forums, looks like this is just teh first of a few teasers, but it's not the final trailer. Ad yeah it does look like a rip off of Age of Empires, in the movies at least, the graphics are supposed to be a lot better than AOE.

  • sound like AOE III rip-off.

  • i have played AOE3 since it first came out and i do not see how it sounds like aoe. please explain.

  • Everytime I feel unintelligent, I just remmember that there really are people in this world who are actually dummber then a doorknob.

  • KillTV is right, people have been ripping off AOE3 all the time, even History ripped it off back in the time of the american colonisation, that entire point in history was just a cheap knock-off of the allmighty originality that is aoe3, and whats with the medieval period? that was clearly taken entirely from aoe2, why can't history come up with it's own ideas rather than copying them from games that haven't even been invented yet?

  • What are you talking about? Stop raping the English language. Have you ever played a Total War game? Obviously not, Age of Empires and the Total War series are two COMPLETELY different games.

  • I agree Age of Empires is nothing like Total War games. They are both good though but in different ways.

  • Personally, I liked Total War more, no offense to AoE fans.

  • The expansion probably has something to do with napoleon ;) without expansion in the end of the game u can hire him to your artillery unit in corsica. But yah its probably expansion.. theres always expansions! thats how they make more money.

  • yeah the graphics are gonna be amazing. I think a lot of people are gonna have to upgrade there pc's. I know i will. better start saving :)

  • the system requirements are going to be so high for this game

  • i found sum amazing stuff out bout this game on wikipedia. just type in empire total war and all will be revealed bout this game :D

  • i pray that they have the good old fashiond land battles on empire total war and that the entire game isnt focused around ships else the game will be absolutely horrible i hope that in the next trailer it shows ground battles and the seige of some city.

  • You´r right. Naval battles seem to be cool, but still prefer the land battles

  • of course they still have land battles, but its ppl with muskets, cannon, and u can garrison buildings and bayonets. this game is gonne be sweet

  • And the point of your video was...?

  • just to get people excited to make more money :D

  • Naval combat is fun, at the moment when both 2 ships turn then "FIRE!"

  • The Total War series needed realistical naval battle like a fish needs water.

  • It reminds my at the movie "Master and Commander", there was also a frigate that came out of nowhere, and there was many fog!

    Thanks for putting this on YouTube!

  • I dont give a flying fuck about naval battles, what about land battles ?

  • amen

  • there r land battles and they luk awesome

  • who gives a fuck about naval battles.. its the land battles i'm worrying about.. too much attention on naval battles.. i was a better land battle.. the old games were kidna lame

  • dude the land battels look sick and if you thought the earlyier games suck then A. your crazy and B. your probably not going to like this gam

  • Uh... How about ragdoll effect on ALL soldiers, with their corpses lying around the whole battle and being thrown around by impacting grenade and cannon shells? Read 'bout what they're doing to land battles and you won't worry no more.

  • Instead of making gay trailers like this one, why don't CA actually focus on making the game. So far ALL of their games had bugs and requiered at least 2-3 patches to be smooth. They always release their games before completing them to meet "deadlines" and earn cash for the holidays.

  • they probably whipped this together in 10 minutes :P

  • im gna love controlling  naval battles:D

  • u so dumb they gonna add full europe america and india 3 continents :)

  • reminds me of master and commander, to bad they are coming out with this instead of Rome 2

  • hmm No napoleon, which mean no imperialism and no industrialization. Napoleon war might mostly shown in Europe and some other area. Im sure if they add Napoleon after American Revolution events it can mess up the campaign. France help American when they fight for revolution. Then France decide to want Revolution and want to overthrow the leader. This spark Reign of terror and French Revolution. When it stop, Napoleon became leader. Napoleon only conquer Europe Territo. (Sorry if I am wrong).

  • yes, you are a bit off with time issues,

    but it could have problem if the split germany into the diferents mini countries that now is germany... for example it will be lovely to see the prussian france war

    and also the russian and prussian conflict.

    in which the other napoleon (there had been 2 napoleons that were emperors of france) would have a tremendous role

  • i just cant imagine america's being a country around napoleon. i want to think all that happened before america for some reason.

  • huh? thomas jefferson bought the lousiana territory from napoleon bonaparte himself.

  • lol.....what!? i was expecting a full blast action packed trailor x.x not a great first impression. but i dont great need first impressions to love total war.

  • I surely hope this means we can actually control and command during naval battles.

  • Obviously, they said this over 100 times... Being able to command naval battles.

  • I hadn't been reading or watching the game. Hadn't even heard of it until yesterday, and then I saw the interview on Gamespot.

  • What a junk, CA dont respect their clients.

  • anybody know what the basic requirements to run this game - on the pc?

  • Preferably Duo-Core, 2GB ram, and a good graphics card, 7+ series.

  • i agree this is basically Master and Commander, was great movie though :)

  • like this

  • its going to be beasting cant wait

  • 43 seconds of absolute waste. How will this micro scene help us to see what ETW is going to be about?! Maybe telescopic vision will be included? Thank you very much CA, that really helped!

  • Theres a boat,

    Theres a man on a boat

    Theres a man on a boat looking through a telescope

    Theres a man on a boat looking through a telescope at another ship

    Theres a man on a boat looking through a telescope at another ship, OMFG, theres another ship!!!!

    Trailer smells...

  • there is meant to be a full one coming out, CA just released this to meet a deadline

  • a full video and not this teaser stuff?

  • they've dun the full one now

  • Hopefully this will be the game that gets CA noticed by the North American gamers. Looks amazing.

  • might not only be in napoleon era. Let see, 180 to 19 century. That Napoleon era, British American War era, and Maybe Imperialist and Industrialization Era. Napoleon havent got to Africa or Far East so I guess it is not only Napoleon.

  • napolon will not be included.
