>reddit are perfectly happy with being unpaid beta testers

Wew lad keep posting those bugs.

I wouldn't expect a crack until the complete edition of TWII a year from now.

thanks for letting us know, based redditbro

Didn't CA literally say that the original plan was to release a opt-in beta first and then do the full ME release once the kinks were ironed out?

Why didn't they just do that?

So people keep saying but when asked for proof none is ever provided.

because they enjoy angry comments filling up their reddit and facebook walls

But they basically did that.

Probs because they shot themselves in the foot with the whole weeks not months thing.

>wood elf melee units all have the ranged version of the forest buff (Forest Stalker) instead of the melee one (Forest Strider)
god damn it ca

what are my wardancers supposed to do with +50% accuracy

It makes no difference either way

>The Vortex campaign, with its dedicated narrative, unique features, mechanics and flavour, is a big project in its own right. The Combined Campaign will be truly vast. Each requires significant playtesting and balancing. This being the most complex Total War campaign we will have released to date, we’d like to plan have a short period of open beta testing just before we release it, this requires WARHAMMER II to be out and for players to be familiar with all the new races and features.
>we’d like to plan have a short period of open beta testing just before we release it

Yet they never told anyone that it would be a beta just before it came out, it was not listed on Steam as a beta either.

>turn 140
>finally defeated all the chaos fucking shits and secured Naggaroth as Malekith
>sail across to Ulthuan to check it out
>Half of it is already a chaos infested shithole with Morathi controlling most of it

MOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM

just from glaing over the TW reddit, I don't think that's the case. everyone and their mothers are criticizing CA for lack of polish and abundance of bugs in ME

Can't decide between Mom and Malekith. which one has better campaign?

>Spookiest time of the year
>Still no tomb kangz

Wtf CA fix your shit.

That's literally what I'm saying.

They SHOULD have put it out as a beta initially, there's a big difference between saying "This is a beta and needs additional fixing to be ready, you can play it if you want to help us fix the issues" and "This is the full release, please come play it"

This week seems like a pretty opportune moment to at least tease tomb kangs

I like Mom a lot more.

Malekith gets bogged down in fighting pre-DLC Norscans which is the least fun thing in the universe.

I'd be considerably less salty if ME was an opt in thing. It'd be so easy for them to excuse the bugs whilst still making it available to everyone who wants to play it.

Definitely Mommy

one day...

>no Ancient Empires
>no Fall of the Eagles update
>Mortal Empires is shit

What the fuck am I supposed to play

Why are Dreadfus so perfect?
>KILL KILL KILL!
>LET THEM KNOW DEATH'S TOUCH!
>IF YOU CHEAT ON ME I'LL MAKE YOU EAT YOUR OWN TESTICLES!

>Playing Mommy in coop ME campaign
>Have 1/4th the slaves i should have because of the FUCKING post-battle bug
>Don't want to restart the campaign because we were already hours and hours in by the time we noticed and found out it was a bug

I'm going to play the Queek campaign in ME and I'm wondering, just how shit is the typical Skaven unit? Do they play like an army of goblins or are they not quite that useless?

They fixed the beastmen map
It's not green anymore

Just fucking play and find out you retard

We just need to find some dying kids and soon we'll have like 10 vampire LLs.

Just don't reply retard.

Then why are they making huge threads full of the bugs and obeying Grace who asked them to do so. The only small rebellion is when she asked them to post on the TW forums instead as the Devs are there (more evidence that Grace is just a PR whore and has nothing to do with the actual makers of the game) and they apologetically refuse because the TW forums are not as good as reddit.

Skaven infantry is mostly worse than other factions equivalents, although they're definitely not that bad with some veterancy and a few upgrades. You mostly use their specialised units to do the real damage whilst your infantry distract the enemy.

What bug?

Also the performance is good

So... tell me user.
What will you do with all those chariots?

We arr going to need another meme for when they get anncounced.

They should really seperate Spell and Magic Resistance. Afaik in the tabletop resistance to spells didn't give a unit resistance to magical melee or ranged attacks, yet in the game the dwarfs have a 20 - 25% magic resist which not only resists spells (ie; it's intended function to make the dwarfs less vulnerable to spells that'd otherwise ruin the lines they rely on) but negates a considerably part of magical melee/ranged attacks aswell. This is especially noticable in WE vs Dwarf matchups, with the WEs main form of ranged AP being Starfire Shafts for either Glade Guard or Deepwood Scouts; AP arrows attached to magical ranged attacks.

>click on Phoenix Guard
>no sound
Fucking CA, cutting corners hoping we won't notice.

Daily reminder that Morathi had to put Malekith in bedrest after she pulled him out of some chaos dimension when Teclis btfo'd him.

>Tomb Kings still not fixed
>Tomb Kings roster still incomplete
There will always be something to whine about.

chorfs
we will be stuck with chorfs

There are three funny factions (well, more like 5, but its three races).
Greenskins, Beastmen and WoC. All other factions are boring AF.

>never actually played WH2 but I think Im right.

idk about you guys but i like fighting meme stacks

In coop campaigns that post-battle choices don't work, the menu where you choose whether you ransom the captive for money, kill them for XPs or take them as slaves

No matter what faction you are it will ALWAYS choose the 'Ransom captives' choice, which not only means you can't get slaves when playing as Dark Elves, it also means that no matter what faction you play you will basically have a permanent -5% casualty replenishment.

First time seeing AI mannfred on a Dragon

She has to do that every time he does something stupid and gets horribly injured.

The AI can send flying units outside of the walls right? That should be interesting.

Are CA fucking *SEXIST* or something?!

What is wrong with reporting bugs?

>The AI can send flying units outside of the walls right? That should be interesting.
I am defending as Helf tho

This is 6th stack am killing in 3 turns. I fucking locked in Marienburg. What to do?

You shouldn't upgrade your Helf walls to level 4 because level 3 walls provide a better garrison.

Some scary shit right there. I got Helman GHOST.

When they release a game / update in this state and know they can get away with it because all the drones will just report the bugs for free to them then it encourages them to do it again, why even bother with Beta tests when you can release absolute shite and then just read the threads for the bugs to fix. They should've clearly stated that it was an open Beta, it's an absolute mess with key elements of the game well and truly broken.

>Araby still not announced

Accompanied by memri images.

It is an opt-in thing. You manually have to download it, it's not automatic. I didn't download that shit and this is how my quick battle selection looks like.

That said, they really should clarify that it's early access content in your $120+ game though.

>having the little hammer next to his province or city doesn't annoy him
I am happy you don't suffer as I do, user, but your suggestion isn't an option

Yes, again the difference is clear. Reddit plebs are happy being unpaid beta tester cucks, whereas we patricians know a game must be 100% perfect and unflawed IMMEDIATELY upon release.

...

It annoys me, but nowhere near enough to trade three units of Seaguard for four of White Lions.

Because a magazine said it would be out 26th October and rather than issue a correction some exec demanded they just go with that. Everyone was clamoring for an ASAP release too.

Grace is a community manager m8. No shit she's not making the game.

I want to fuck Grace.

Keep killing stacks and use the money to get your provinces built up quick, pick up the anti Norsca and anti Chaos techs after you get the confederation ones for Artois, Bordeleau and Lyonesse. Once you have walls and can afford a second army send Louen on a mission to burn down Norsca.

I agree with this.

...

Yeah no shit indeed but she has stated before that they all practically work in the same room together a few desks away from each other. A clear lie.

Why, though?

>crooked moon mutinous gits STILL camp K8P with 2 stacks and a full garrison

Sure is fun when you can't afford even a single full stack.

>MORE POWER! MORE

just use schemes lmao

I'm a really lonely man.

Don't play Leon Le Cuck

Fucks just doesnt want conf. Both almost 200+ rep.

The dwarfs will wreck them for you sometimes.

You can beat those stacks easily as Belegar, Skarsnik can use lightning strike OR lots of gobbos.

Really triggers me that killing Mannlet ASAP as Vlad or Izzy uses up one of my trait slots with a trait completely useless for me.

First time I've ever run out a 60 minute battle timer in WH. Literally ran out of stuff to shoot with.

She's just like an average British girl dude. You could get that, you don't have to get all hung up on some internet PR person.

How the shit fuck

> ulta unit size
> half army range
> manlents

How did they even manage to fit inside the settlement.

...

>only 2 stacks

Lmao I’ve got at least three there right now. This will be “fun”

With considerable difficulty. Also Jewish Runemaster.

>AoS

No.

>using battle timer
You better post some screenshots of that battle.
