New P'dox affiliated release - For The Glory

[Tamas]

Hmm, never tried EU2. Maybe this could be the incentive to try it out.

Who the fuck are you?

Didn't figure you for a fan of Walking With Dinosaurs, Tamas.

that game is so not about that.

[KRonn]

This looks pretty good, I may get it. I haven't played EU2 in a long time, and haven't yet played EU3, and this looks to be a good revision or version of EU2, much enhanced.   

[Josquius]

Where is t'beta sign up thingy?
I've been thinking of reinstalling EU2 anyway....

[Camerus]

I notice it is now available for pre-order on GG.  Has anyone ordered it yet?

Also:  what's with the super-powered rebels?   

[garbon]

Also:  what's with the super-powered rebels?  

Say what? Rebels are the same except that they can now perform assaults and disappear at the end of the month if in a province without revoltrisk and they have insufficient numbers to siege.

[Camerus]

I thought rebels' tech level was automatically set to that of the highest military tech country in the world.

[garbon]

No, that was a mistake via a translation of french to english.

[Camerus]

That's a relief.   

Now, does GG allow purchases and downloads from the glorious Maoist republic?

[Maladict]

I never thought I'd play EU2 again, even though I never really got into EU3.
I was really enjoying it, until it crashed.
(vanilla) map sucks, though.

[Camerus]

I'm DLing it now.   

[Fate]

how long until they release the sexytime map? (for agceep)

[Seen]

Thats a very silent release or should I have been subscribed to the Paradox newsletter?

And isnt your income tied to this Garbon, shouldnt you be promoting? 

[garbon]

Silent in what way?

[Seen]

In that I browse paradox fora daily and missed it  And even when I googled 'for the glory' it wasnt in the hits. I had to go ALL the way to gamersgate

And as long as you're online you could maybe answer the question I just asked in the mp part of FtG fora:

"But since you're trying out MP, is a rehost needed when someone drops? I read it has support for over 32 people. As you and me know in old eu2 that would be impossible so was wondering how FtG got around this problem."

[garbon]

It's the second hit on American google and then several hits after that. And its been a hit for quite sometime if you put quotes around it. I even got an promotional e-mail from Susana about it, although I'm not quite sure why.

I don't really know a lot about that. I'm not involved greatly on the PR side (well I suppose I generated most of the screen shots for the gaming sites) nor has mp ever been my focus. That said, the one thing I do know, which I posted a little earlier was that updating the code (which is why it doesn't work on Win '98) kicked some kinks out and helped mp become more stable without hamachi.
