Unite the Paradox and CA!

[Sarpistic]

these 2 companies must work together and should combine the campaign of paradox games and the battles of total war series... that would be make an amazing RTS...

-CA should only focus on battle graphics, AI's etc
-Paradox should focus on the campaign

imagine the whole detailed diplomacy etc with epic battles..

i know it's a dream for RTS players, but this is our only solution to get a legendary RTS game like GTA of Rockstar...

it's not impossible, let's keep dreaming.

More like combine their extreme dlc price policy. Wait, its already basically the same, huge money for not a lot of content.

[feillyne]

No. Let them rot.

This is the message to their upper management.

[parent child bowl]

No, thanks. I don't want Total War battles in EU5 and I don't want EU5 mechanics in Total War games.

[Hieronymous]

I have always dreamed of this. Im more of a paradox guy, though. 20 bucks for a few extra units in battles?

No way.

20 bucks for an additional column on the spreadsheet?

Heck yes!

I've had exams that took less research than 'casual' Paradox games so I'm morbidly curious what CA/Paradox could cook up

[Tommytools]

Paradox? No thank you. All they would do is wreck the game.

I loved Stellaris, bought every DLC, played it to death. Hours upon hours of MP with friends. Then they removed FTL variety and turned the game into boring space roads (probably because the PvPers couldn't handle variety, just like in this game), which meant I lost interest entirely, as did all my friends I played MP with.

I loved Surviving Mars, then they canned the original developer. They replaced them with some...thing that couldn't even make a single functional DLC for the game. They even broke the original game due to updates that came with that DLC. To this day the game is buggier than it ever was, if they had left it alone it would have remained a decent game and I'd still play it on a regular basis.

I won't even go into Paradox's DLC policies. CA has a much better track record in that regard (far from perfect, but miles better than Paradox over the last two decades).

I'd personally want this. Total War games suffer from playing tall in almost all their titles, but in Warhammer, all you can do is paint the map no matter who you play. It gets extremely boring extremely fast.

[AkumulatoR]

Oh yeah, let us take this almost dying horse (that represents CA) and infect it with turbo super aids. What could go wrong?

[art_loots]

The fact paradox admitted their DLC policy was through the roof and made the DLC subscribtion model tells you what ou need to know about paradox it's policy. i do like some of the games but damn their policy is bad.
will still say their core design is still good without error's. something CA can learn from

[Andartan]

Wow, so fresh and original idea

[Darklight]

Paradox can make some decent campaign mechanics but there is no way a combination of the two companies would result in anything good.

[Dr. Uncredible]

Hard no there, if merging companies into colossal supercorporations actaully made anything better we´d be living in a golden age right now, instead prices are going up and quality down on pretty much every commodity you could name.

Yeah that was the day Stellaris died for me too - never touched it again and did never buy another Paradox game.

@Topic
Sure, why not - WH3 was the last title i bought from CA anyways so I dont care.
