Gamespot 'vote'

[shaldon]

Some dude has started a thread on Gamespot entitled 'MTW vs EU' - apparently he hasn't heard of the EU series before (Gamespot are giving EU3 some nice publicity with the latest Q&A).

I suggest you all log in to Gamespot and vote! Although MTW is good and I'm playing it until January, the words 'no-brainer' spring to mind!

EDIT - get to the EU3 forum there from the EU3 section on Gamespot, may seem obvious but you never know....

Linky? And do we have to register to vote?

I removed the direct forum link as it's not allowed, I just remembered.

[crazy canuck]

Some fool has started a thread on Gamespot entitled 'MTW vs EU' - apparently he hasn't heard of the EU series before.

Well you're very kind... I only wished to add on to the publicity, and what do I get...

Is this the same A-hole who said EU3 is a poor mans MTW2?

No I'm not that A-hole...

I just want to add that I was about to buy MTW2 but then I found the game that was missing from my life EUROPA UNIVERSALIS...
I've had dreams about a game like this...

o I pledge my self to what is probably the only game that I ever trully needed...

I only regret never being as blessed as you guys, to have experienced the other EU games

 

[Icecold]

Just done my vote for EUIII

All publicity is good publicity etc

Hi guys,

I wanted to say thanks to Negru Voda for starting the thread on Gamespot UK as we want to make sure as many strategy gamers as possible world wide hear about Europa Universalis III . Great to see so many of you getting involved as well!

This is just a friendly reminder to play nice and to keep welcoming all new and interested gamers to the forum as warmly as you normally do! There is bound to be a "few" more appearing as we get closer to release...

Very exciting times ahead!!

Kind regards
Susana Meza

seems times are changing - EU is now challenging MTW - cool ...

altough a challenge between CK and MTW would have been more challenging ... EU wins hands down from MTW

Yeah what a shame that somedy is comparing EU3 with the worst-strategy-game-ever called MTW2 .Ok first MTW was good,I don't know about MTW2 but I'm sure that it's not bad

I've never bought any of that series because the only people who ever say its a better strategic game say so because it has tactical battles. That and it looks terrible from the box.

 

[unmerged(46069)]

I've actually tried the game, and safe to say, its a TACTICAL game with just enough strategy in the middle to keep you occupied till your next TACTICAL battle. Doesn't mean its bad, just means that EU and MTW are totally different in their aim, so whats the point of the vote?

 

[Josephus I]

Negru....I know how you feel. When I first walked into a games store and saw the original EU game on the shelves several years ago, I felt the same way you do. I remember looking at the back of the box and going..."This is the game I would invent if I knew anything about programming."

Now, 5 years later or whatever, I still feel the same. You will like EU.

 

[Negru Voda]

Josephus I, I hear you...

...as for the vote, I guess I wanted to offer some sort of support to the developers...

Obvioulsy the games are different, but this isn't about that...
It's about prestige among games for EUIII (It's nice to have a loyal following, but that wont make you rich)
It's about prestige among gaming communities

And it's all about posting the name of the game on another page... Someone might notice, buy the game (get happier)...
The money goes to paradox, and we get nice games...
One of the most anoying situations is when you have great talented people working, but not enough funding...
One of the best situations is to have talented people workking, and abundant funding

That's how I feel... if you wont help out, it's no problem... I'm sure Paradox is perfectly capaple of selling...

o ...It's for a good cause...

 

[Gaute65]

I think your doing a good job promoting EUIII Negru Vuda. I also think that someone in this thread owns you an apology.

 

[EvilSanta]

There seems to be a lot of EU fanboys there. Good.

M2TW is the best at what it does. And that is massive realtime battles. But campaign in EUII is vastly superior to Medievals, even if it is way older. And EUIII will blow M2TW away when it comes to campaign.

Didnt register but thats what I would have said. I might register there when i have more time.

 

[JoGi]

I prefer EU2/EU3, it feels as if the objective of MTW2 is "Conquer half of Europe in this amount of years, Go!", the battles is the only fun
