Mahasamatman posted:So far the game is having a lot of issues for me at 2560x1440. It launches in 1920x1080. I can swap to my resolution but it drifts up the screen a little bit (mouse cursor is slightly off too.) If I set it to "window" it drifts even more. Setting it back to fullscreen works until I hit a loading screen or change focus. Cut scenes also seem to gently caress it up. weird, same. for me even setting the UI scale back to 100% didn't fix it (though dear god the 200% scaling looks AWFUL). fullscreen is fine but borderless is never quite the right resolution, which is annoying in a game that you tend to tab out of as much as TWWH. apparently -popupwindow in the Steam exe args improves it? haven't tried yet. i have no idea why that arg appears to fix so many games misbehaving in borderless--you'd think by this point devs would have figured that problem out and included whatever magic it works by default Coquito Ergo Sum posted:The game has a funny idea of "low" advisor frequency. i dearly wish there was a faction-specific hit+new wh3 stuff setting. every turn i'm flummoxed as to why i can move my army until i realize the advisor desperately needs to teach me what attrition is bonus points for him telling me about how i needed to move my army out of dangerous terrain to stop attrition, when my ogre army was out of meat and doing cannibalism. he never explained how the meat mechanic and the consequences of running out worked.

am i misunderstanding the camera settings or are they just bugged for your faction i have own faction hero movement set to "off" but the slaaneshi cultists ive sent off into the void to wind down their cult counter and make a new one in some far corner of the map insist on grabbing the camera to show me them walking along their 15-move dash to gently caress knows where

Slaanesh highlights how annoying the new minor settlement maps are. So much speed to maneuver! Enjoy everyone clumping together and awkwardly squeezing past each other in a 3-fiend-wide street. Also you have to fight all of them since it's the difference between taking basically no damage as you clown car your way to the capture point and losing half your health in close victory autoresolve, which takes like 5 turns to replenish. Great fun in field battles though. I am still annoyed that setting your own faction hero camera to off somehow just doesn't work, and the game insists on showing your cultists traipse across the map on the way to their next cult target.

drat Dirty Ape posted:I mean, I'm pro union but streamers and content creators are generally self employed so I don't see how a union can benefit them much. His complaints mostly just have to do with certain aspects of the gameplay that he doesn't like. I guess they could all band up and boycott streaming CA until they..... fix the chaos realms or whatever. beaten but the model would not be UAW contracting with Ford or w/e, it'd be SAG-AFTRA. it's not collective bargaining with a single employer but rather a professional association that sets standards for how various engagements are conducted and compensated which obligates it members to uphold those standards or be ejected. such an org would make sense but wouldn't address anything i've seen total war people complain about--you can set a requirement that early access for marketing requires a set fee schedule for guild members or whatever, but a "game must be good for content creation out the gate" requirement makes no sense because it's subjective and incredibly complex. you can easily pay $X more because dollars are fungible; you cannot magically add 30 arbitrary gameplay quality units to a game you could conceivably add a "no review embargo" guild rule but it seems pretty ludicrous because idk what influencers would really gain from it--worst case you don't like the game and just no comment any viewer requests for opinions. people that are truly on the fence about buying will just wait til after review embargoes end anyway

the change to clear chaos realm traits if you get a soul helps a lot, but not enough. parking your lord in a settlement with no indication of progress (because it was, and still is, random) or even if you're in the right place to cure it was loving bullshit. needing to hire heroes or dirvert lords to close rifts still sucks post-patch TWWH3 story campaign isn't as bad as it was at launch but i still won't miss it once i have IE

Ra Ra Rasputin posted:Problem with Hero's as agents is you need some high tier buildings in multiple cities to up your capacity and you know who has lots of growth and a grudge specifically against the player? the AI. god yeah my current kislev game feels like it has 25 of every chaos faction's heroes wandering around my territory, but at least all they're apparently doing is justifying the ongoing existence of all the churches i built to win the court/orthodoxy competition. still annoying visual noise i really wish there was an AI cockiness slider to appease the "i don't want the AI to make bad matchup decisions!" crowd while letting the rest of us enjoy not-siege battles. 3K armies sallying all the time was good--all they really lost was like 1-2 turns of attrition before they'd decisively lose autoresolve, so who cares. doubly so when you lack a block army hero (wtf, that should be mandatory, who needs hinder replenishment or assault unit?)

SirFozzie posted:Nearly a thousand decades ago fantasy became a reality in a forum never seen before: Settra's Kitchen Stadium, a giant cooking arena. The motivation for spending his fortune to create Kitchen Stadium was to encounter new original cuisines which could be called true artistic creations. To realize his dream, he secretly started choosing the top chefs of various styles of cooking, and he named his men the Iron Chefs: the invincible men of culinary skills. Iron Chef Empire is Belthasar Gelt. Iron Chef Asur is the Mage Lord Teclis. Iron Chef Cathay is Zhao Ming. And Grimgor Ironhide is Iron Chef Greenskin. Kitchen Stadium is the arena where Iron Chefs await the challenges of master chefs from around the world. Both the Iron Chef and challenger have one hour to tackle, kill and serve the theme ingredient of the day. Using all their senses, skill, creativity, they are to prepare artistic dishes never tasted before. And if ever a challenger wins over the Iron Chef, he or she will gain the people's ovation and fame forever. If not, their soul is condemned to serve Settra in eternity. doesn't matter, just like irl nobody will ever choose to fight against

vaginite posted:Unrelated man I wish there was a way to auto build heroes, like set up a template build order for a standard one because in IE going for the cataclysm wins I end up with 20 stacks of guys and spend most of my time allocating skill points to build the same hero the same way 100 times. the button on the top left of the skill page auto-assigns skill points. most heroes i turn it on after a while, especially non-spellcasters where it usually matters gently caress all. it's not a template but the order you get the melee def/weapon strength/melee attack/leadership aura points in probably doesnt matter that much.

TaintedBalance posted:Hero spam loving sucks, and relatedly, your allies spotting your ambushes also sucks. Only hostiles should be able to pull you out of ambush stance. I feel like a good half of the time, ambush stance is completely useless because of heroes and the like, which is clearly not the intent. I guess this is two points in one: heroes need some major updating on both skills and campaign AI use of them, and ambush stance (stances in general?) needs an overhaul. poo poo's a mess. why the heck does the AI run so many non-embedded heros anyway? it doesn't seem like they even do anything most of the time other than flock around player armies when you're at war. actually using their non-embedded abilities seems really rare sure, there's a scouting advantage, but you don't need multiple for that, and it's not of much use when you have no lords around to take advantage of the info
