Damn that looks nice...It'd be 20x better if it was an action game though.

It's truly a next gen total war - some parts even looked near cgi at times. Before I was a bit skeptical tbh about CA's choice to focus so much time on naval battles but this video has totally changed my mind.

Looks ok. I don't get what's all the excitment, I don't see anything revolutionary... Looks like yet another strategy game to me :S Higher end graphics but not worth the OMGWTFBBQ IMO (judging just by the trailer).

Yeah, I saw this on rockpapershotgun. Looks good, but then again, so do most games in trailers. The good news is that there is still a lot of development time left.

I realize it was actual gameplay. I'm always a bit worried about getting hyped for a game and then being dissapointed, so I try and keep my expectations realistic. It has the potential to be one of the best games of 2009, I'll say that much.

True :) Pure Epic win...

That pirate game I dont know about, since I dont play mmo, but thanks for the suggestion :)

Other than that, Act of War:High Treason ( from 2006) still have to this day the best naval battles ever on strategy game imo

If anyone wants to know how it looks like :roll: :D here is a link

I really hope they increase the AI turn speed (also allow you to do more in one turn). That's easily the most annoying part of the Total War series.

How many Total War games have you played?

I'm curious how a TBS/RTS Hybrid featuring naval warfare looks like "yet another strategy game"

Well, I played Rome Total War and liked it quite a bit at the time... I dunno, I guess I'm not a big enough connoisseur in strategy games to fully appreciate the trailer :P I'll admit strategy isn't my favorite genre. Oh well, still looks interesting, I just wish I could see what all the hype is. Maybe I'll read up on it. Is there supposed to be anything else exciting about this other than graphics, detail, and lots of water? :S As far as gameplay goes, I mean.

What kind of specs u guys think we will need to run at the settings in that video? I can max Med 2 on my E6750 @ 2.66GHz, 8800GTS 640MB, and 4GB PC6400... but this looks a lot better than Med 2 as well as a lot more graphically demanding... Should I start seeing an HD4870x2, 8GB of DDR3, and QX9650 OC'ed to 4Ghz as my PC of Feb 09? Or will it run max on something less? Thoughts, ideas, hypothesis's?

It looks awesome. Now I'm just hoping that my PC doesn't explode trying to run it.

I haven't seen any videos of Empire yet, and I'm not going to watch any (I'm saving myself for my wedding night), but I would like to point out to all of you, if you aren't aware, that the Total War games are amongst the best looking of all time, Medieval II is arguably the second best looking game after Crysis, and Creative Assembly has forgotten more about making games than most developers will ever learn.

CA makes excellent - and excellent looking - games and they really don't have the mainstream support they deserve. I hope everyone impressed by this video will be buying a few dozen copies of Empire early next year to support one of the PC's greatest and most loyal developers.
