[poll] Cosmetic DLC

Or the militia line that is so awkward on the Far East, especially on Japan.

yes you would, and you’ll pay more than just $10 as they continue to make cosmetic DLC and you’ll keep paying. its a good way for them to make money and get supported

Like any hobby, it has a price. For sure that I will pay to see my game as I like it.
But hobbies are optional, I don’t understand people that are complaining, if they don’t afford a hobby and this is affecting their life, just quit it!
There are tons of hobbies for everyone out there.

you dont understand them because you didnt read the points they mentioned. also becareful what you wish for as it might not turn out what you wanted

I would love for them to add Toltec ruins, statues and such to the scenario editor.

if they introduce these cosmetic changes they will mess up the game even more.

Says you. Speak for yourself.

Cosmetic DLC containing completely new Architecture Sets (Northern European, Iberian, Balkan, Caucasian, Nomadic, Andean, Chinese etc.) and completely new regional models of all civil and military units (all units remodeled to match world regions) - I WANT IT!!!

no, no. I didn’t mean that different unit skins will be detrimental in themselves… i meant that they will probably create more bugs, specially with pathing.

I’m just trying to make an ancient city. Imagine a Rome with Bronze, Iron, Dark, Feudal, Castle and Imperial age age buildings. Like most of the cities in the scenarios, they are mostly contemporary buildings with some Feudal age buildings. Also by adding more ruins (besides the few we have) it also gives it that immersive feeling.

No they won’t, graphics don’t affect anything related to code or pathing, it’s purely a visual thing that can be easily configured with the Advanced Genie Editor.

No they won’t. Graphical changes have nothing to do with pathing.

New graphics will have no impact on whether units walk where you want them to.

gee three people have corrected me, that must mean i’m wrong. seriously now, i’m just too fearful, like, they touch something, and something else is affected. it seems that in the latest update they somehow messed up with the bandwith and i’m having lag spikes every match; this rarely happened before.

technically speaking changing some aspect of graphic could potentially cause pathing issue. since no one really knows how the codes are connected we are all assuming from our experience, and that in the reverse order

the experience is that changing graphic (via genie editor) is simply a stored value that game reads and that in itself doesn’t affect pathing (assuming that behavior itself isn’t changed due to other new features), but it may have been broken at some point after adding said features, and they addressed it because it is bluntly obvious and likely the first thing they see and once fixed, game reads graphic entry value properly again so we dont ever see it being broken.

however if they were to add in new features that touch on less used graphical effect, then it can happen if they dont catch it and players will eventually notice it. or if they were to add in new graphical related features it could potentially break graphic related stuff too

I really hope for an improvement in dark age. The viasual is very strange and generic. Some civs can be improve too like Huns and Mongols. This architecture is very strange. Universits and Monastery can be unic building too.

I think the number off buildings can be improve. Like add seat of government or others stuffs. And naval stuffs needs an improve, is very boring naval battles.

An interesting DLC would be Fall Of Rome, IT WOULD MIX the Ancient world (Post 4th century BC) and Late Middle Ages cultures (Until ± 8th century). These civs don’t fit well into Age 1 or Age 2

i understood it perfectly, thanks for backing me up

I’ve said it before but it looks very primitive. Now we know that the ā€œdark ageā€ was mainly a Western European thing but I think the dark age should should represent the rough period of each civilization. I also think ages should be longer in gameplay cus currently it’s just a quick race to the imperial age.
