Computer Game - Napoleon: Total War

[Sir Wellington]

Hello folks,

I was on Facebook this morning when I got the news of an upcoming release of a new game called, "Napoleon: Total War"

I was thrilled, and I bet everyone here is also!

This thread will be updated constantly.

This belongs in the Culture and Multimedia section.

However, I mine as well comment on it while I am here. I think everyone agreed that after the great success of Empire: Total War and the time period and approach they used, Napoleon was only a matter of time. What I did not expect however was that the next full game in the series would be Napoleon. I figured they would make it an expansion on Empire. I am also surprised that they have already released a few screenshots and a video when the game won't be released for a year and a half. Still, it looks really cool. Hopefully by that time my computer will be upgraded sufficiently seeing how I can barely run Empire as it is.

No it doesn't.

Look at the topics below. Empire: Total War is there.

Anywho, I like the look of it. Only problem is Empire: Total War is hard to run on my PC with my graphics card (I need to update) so the models don't show up well from far away. So this game is gonna be even harder to play!

Same as you. =.=

But I'm reallly looking for the game!

[Captain Blackmoor]

Hehe, it seems to be the lucky pick with the brand new game pc here.

I can play Empire: Total war on the highest graphics, and it is awesome. No doubt Napoleon: Total War will be even more awesome...

Looks intresting, though it was obvious this was going to turn up at some stage. Sadly as someone with just a laptop the chances of me playing it any time soon are nil.

I have a laptop and play Empire: Total War.

These first pics make it seem like Napoleon didn't do much to distinguish himself from previous Total War games. Although I'm sure they added more content. Too soon for this game in my opinion, even just to announce it.

Well, Napoleon: Total War is out now. I'll try to pick it up in the weekend and give it a go.

It's a lot of fun, I must say! There are a lot of interesting things happening in there that provides for a very good playing experience! I'd recommend it

[Emperor Claudius Rome]

I wish I could by it, but I'm ordering the Imperial Flagship tonight!

Either LEGO or NTW

This really just reminds me of Empire Total war but set more in Europe I suppose.

[Fordo]

It's been quite brilliant so far, I've been all the French campaigns and battles besides Waterloo, which is tricky. I can't wait to start doing the British, Austrian, Prussian, and Russian campaigns.

I am a huge fan of the Total War Series. Especially Rome Total War and Midevil. But Empire just failed. So hopefully Napolean will redeem the total war franchise for me.

If anyone's interested, the N:TW demo came out a couple of weeks ago. I've just got around to playing it now. There's only a land tutorial and one historical land battle (no naval battles unfortunately), so there isn't much to do. The historical battle (The Battle of Ligny) is very fun though, the map is nice and spread out, but is still packed with plenty of details.

The demo can be downloaded here.

I got this game one month ago and im hooked! A great buy even if you don't like strategy games.

[curtisrlee]

Those French look nice

[Captain Becker]

The game looks cool indeed, but the reason why i wont gonna get it is at i have to buy it, i dont like to spend any money for PC games if i havent must. and i like mostly Online games where i can play whit another human. But the game is indeed amazing

There is an online multi-player component with Napoleon Total War, where you can play battles against a human opponent or entire campaigns.
