My apologies. I didn't realise your opinions had a shelf-life.

My opinions tend to stay true for a long time, but bumping threads from 4 months ago usually means I end up wondering how drunk I must have been the night before to have forgotten posting.

... Lotm bumped the thread.

Bumping old threads instead of starting new ones on the same topic - conservation of threads

[DrSpike]

Yes, but try to be more selective in future.

Slightly confused over this, and wonder if anyone here can shed some light on this:

http://www.paradoxplaza.com/index.ph...395&Itemid=228

http://www.taleworlds.com/index.html

Ok so why do neither sites mention the other? And a check in the forums of both didn't provide any new info. This is the same game right? I'm guessing Taleworlds have made an agreement with Paradox to pubish(in europe especialy?), and it's not out yet but on the Paradox site they have set a date for release(and are taking money now for it it looks like?) September 2008.

Anyone know whats going on? If this is going to be 'finished' and sold in september it will be a new PC game to add to my to buy list for this year

My vague impression is that yes, this is 1.0 and Paradox is publishing it, globally. I assume they will have to take down the site with the beta releases.

Good for them, hope they do well - and good for Paradox, still one of my favorite publishers.

Ok - I finally got around to buying this. Any tips on starting out?

[El_Cid]

how is it? did you buy it through Paradox? what version number do you get etc?

Sorry for all the questions, this is one game i would consider buying having played the demo a fair bit awhile back.

Hmmm as for your question i seem to remember buying and selling goods was a waste of time, just concentrate on the combat and getting good at it(use the trainer/contest fight event in the starting town).

I bought it through Gamersgate (and slipped Vae Victus into the same order) and patched it up to 1.011. So far I'm enjoying the game; I've recruited about 10 men and we're travelling the countryside beating up on looters and avoiding pretty much everyone else. I just started doing quests for some of the Swadian nobility, too.

I'm still getting used to combat. I never like using the mouse to control my view, so that's taking some time to figure out.
