If they make a rome total war 2 make the Egyptians from the Ptolemaic dynasty with greek inspired hoplites, and on the campaign, custom and multiplayer you should be able to have a maximum of 500,000 men, the ability to control your allies, more historically accurate units in army with correct uniform, more cities and factions on campaign map like Epiros, Republic of Rome, replace Thrace with Getae, Kingdom of Bactria, Alexanders' Macedonian Kingdom etc better graphics
@black00dice 500k men would crash and activision is planning out to improve the graphics and animation of the units only a supercomputer can handle that amount of units
@AntonioRules99 Actually, quite a few things can be added/improved. For starters, naval battles to be fought manually rather than forcing you to save before battles that are must-win yet the AI decides that you lose. Change stats for quite e few units, e.g. Germans must NOT be allowed to fight as phalanx because they never actually did that. Introduce Illyrians because they were not subjugated by Rome for quite a while. Make ROMAN missile machines a lot more accurate as they historically were.
@WiseyChelsLegend NAAAAAAAH RTW was an Olympic sport. No point in changing the rules of an Olympic sport. Like who would want to change the rules of basketball now. And nobody plays Rome anymore anyway, even though it was such a perfect game. So whats the point of ruining its legacy?
@WiseyChelsLegend Wow it will be historically inaccurate anyway. They can make the most realistic shooter but it won't be fun to play. They can make Rome the most realistic game and give the Hellenics the standard phalanx and leave only the Macedonians with the Macedonian phalanx and make Roman cav 2 times more expensive and Roman legionaires and Triarii have 2 times more men than Urbans and Praetorians but it won't be a fun game then.
That wouldn't work very well since it was during the 20th century in which the way wars were fought changed drastically. WWI was fought in trenches, WWII was fought in urban environments with automatic weapons and so have all the wars since. The Total War series works so well because they take place in times when troop placement and movement was actually divisive in battles. Modern wars are all about who fires the most bullets at the other side.
@championofgods No, they should have Greece Total War next. Factions: Athens, Sparta, Corinth, Persia, Thebes, Corcyra, and Syracuse. That would be AWESOME!!!!
@Corinthian64 too few different factions on that "greece: total war"... it would not be epic enough... it would work more as a expansion for a Rome 2 like they did with Alexander: Total War...
I swear whenever this track comes up, I quickly get my forces into position and do a full on rush, perfect charging music, especially with massive armies.
@LeeyroyJenkins Better diplomacy too.. I reduce Galia to 2 settlements and they didin't want to become my protectorade.. and excuse my bad english please ^^U
I would love to have rome 2, just pudated graphically and with the new added total war gaming concepts. No changing the core gameplay though.. no other total war has as good gampeplay as Rome.
@kelman221 so true. Only Rome had good gameplay in battles. Medieval 2 was ok, and Empire sucked big time. Dunno about Shogun though, I feel like trying them.
Rome 2? Hmmmm i dont think so theyve done mostly everthing about those times that the general public know about, they cant improve on it. To be honest, i dont want them to
These songs sound absolutely AMAZING on a good speaker system. The bass in it and the beats just add so much suspense during a battle and make the battle itself so intense, especially during momemnts like 1:13. I love to listen to those drums while my roman legions push battering rams up to a gate with the rest of my legions marching behind in testudo formation. IT'S BEAUTIFUL.
rome is the best game ever made... and when i heard this music i felt invincible marching my legions toward the enemy and preparing for an all out attack on their center to cut them to pieces
@ELcapalla2 Come on now. Medieval felt a lot like Rome, except you had castles and more political events like crusades and jihads as well as the Mongol and Timurid invasions.
I think they did a good job on the Campaign. But as far as the battles... yeah, Rome wins ALL the way.
AHHH Memories this Game was when the CA actualy pay attencion to their games and cared about their fans and made games great! Now with Empire wtf is that! Worse Total War Game ever!
@lORDELO2 There is Rome Total War 2. According to a interview with the developer, they say they "were interested" with the idea. Google up for more details
@lORDELO2 i think someone sadi it underneath, shogun 2 release should be March 2011, cant wait, looks fab, obviously not as big at medieval total war or rome total war but more added features
@BrugesFan23 No Rome 2, then every rome total war player is going to play that one and then i have to get a new computer.Just keep it with Shogun 2 :P
@lORDELO2 :) way to percedct the future all your comades where granted Shogun II is already out and now working on Rome II after that there's rumors there going to make WWI and WWII
Yeah, the only way I've found to take them on in that Siege of Sparta historical battle is to hit 'em fast and hard with slingers. They get wasted pretty badly. Otherwise, they're like Greek's version of the Urban Cohort.
Yeah, the historical battles are pretty fun - I played one that the Romans historically lost and I won, and was like "what did these guys do wrong!?". Next I played one that the Romans historically won and I got my ass handed to me thoroughly. :P
the most badass guy was the bear-suit guy (atleast i called him that) the guy who held the sign up in each cohort who had a huge sword with the animal skin on his head lol
I'm talking about a global red revolution that will crush the old capitalist society, the United States which is the whole world for many centuries have oppressed us proletarians with U.S. laws that apply to every country and destroyed our enviroment so they can save profit.
The capitalism must be crushed and out of the ruins will be our global world socialist republic.
The Praetorian Guard should've been more powerful, Urban Cohorts are just a Paramilitary force. Praetorian Guards consisted of the best soldiers from the Legions.
Greek Armoured Hoplites are the best unit in the game, They stand where they stand and IF there phalanx is broken, they can easily beat any foe whit swords aswell!
I wish they were, but Urban Cohorts overpower them.
Even fighting the phalanx head on, the Urban Cohort tends to win. Then taking into account how weak the phalanx is when flanked and its general lack of mobility (in phalanx), the Urban Cohorts win hands down.
@Spoonarithm aye, just happned to me 5 minutes ago. About 2 Sacred Bands and 7 Poienei INfantry engaged my two Urban Cohorts who had like no support, everything else focused on the enemy that was swarming me. When I looked back, all the phank untis were dead, or near dead and routed freeing me to do a counter attack.

@Spoonarithm aye, just happned to me 5 minutes ago. About 2 Sacred Bands and 7 Poienei INfantry engaged my two Urban Cohorts who had like no support, everything else focused on the enemy that was swarming me. When I looked back, all the phank untis were dead, or near dead and routed freeing me to do a counter attack.
