New screenie on the web

[beezneez]

I personally would have commissioned an historical illustrator along with copious amounts of period illuminations (eg; book of kells), prints and artwork! The feel of a game is just as important as gameplay....IMO

what's paradox, a world renowned museum? how much money and time do you think they have? also, only when you begin will you have historical leaders. then as your dynasty goes through time, their physical traits change (nose, etc.). so they have to be able to change over time, so historical pics go out zee window. and i like the pics and i cant wait to see my knights slicing up heathen pig dogs! :rofl:

I think the paradox illustrator guy (forgot his name) draws great faces.

 

[Nikolai]

Trust me, you're not the only one...

I'm totally aware...

Museum No! Well researched yes!

How much money....loads! at least £90 of mine anyway (well a percentage anyway). Any young aspiring artist would jump at the chance to do such a prestige job.

As i said Its my opinion....and you'll not change it however much you try

Next Screenie

I want to see the British Isles. I already know what France and the Mid-East looks like, now. I want to see the British Isles and Eastern Europe and the HRE.

 

[Quivis]

I want to see Northen or Eastern Europe

 

[Bossemanden]

I see we´re in the "waiting and pleading for next screenshot" mode. Ok I´m in (waiting and pleading for next screenshot).

*SCREENSHOT*

Lovely! As for requests I'd love to see the HRE in political mode, or a shot of a battle in progress! I can't wait to get my hands on this here game...

Looks a bit like COTN's mature and adult cousin.

 

[unmerged(6160)]

We need a screenshot of a family tree!

Ach. I hope that COTN is nothing but a bastardized orphan child left on the street compared to CK.

Great news and a positive to build on, a screenshot from fredrik and a commitment from johan about future screenshots.

Thanks for the positives guys there are still a lot of us who are watching the CK forums from afar and awaiting the game. Im glad to see its progressing foward and in the hands of the Paradox team who can bring it to fruition.

Heres hoping for more positives to come and a successful release.

how about a pic of the black sea area w/ of course, constantinople in there. i know there are a bunch of byzantinophiles on these forums like me after all, the "first crusader" was emperor heraclius, who avenged the razing of jerusalem and took back the true cross after he crushed the heathen persian empire in the mid 600's.

Sounds a bit outside of the scope of the game, neh? 1066-1453 ring any bells?

I think we both want the same thing here Sonny we just disagree on some of the game theology for lack of a better term (refer to our historical sim/fantasy rpg dicussion).

I have largely stayed away from the CK boards after my last foray into the 2 games thread. I was blessed to be enlightened on some of the things it takes to get a game made and how easily a few subtlties can derail the process of months.

Glad to see CK is moving to the front burner now that Victoria is out and patched. Seeing the post from Johan and Fredrik warranted some positive feedback, often I wonder if they realize that all the bitching we do is because we love the games.

 

[unmerged(11313)]

not to be a party pooper, but although we are all glad to see some progress in Crusader Kings, but I'm a bit discouraged by the interface which looks much more limited than Victoria... Map looks a bit dull also..only 3-4 colors for the lands. But regardless of that its nice to see some screenies

Wouldn't it be better if knights were mounted?
