another rome game broke

just... ridiculous. I cant even start a new campaign.

ya know what, total war series? im done. your ♥♥♥♥ update just crashed the game. I cant load previous saves, and im not uninstalling stuff you put out to fix what you broke. you already charge money on games over and over again in these add-ons. I'll just play empire total war. I didnt get sick of that as fast as romeII. actually, I wont play empire total war. no more of your ♥♥♥♥ games. I'll play skyrim that I modded out of practicality - and that's still more stable than you.

kuwait_crusader try uninstall and reinstalling that should help.

verifying the files also helps.

Same issue here. Ill try to re-install but thats super unprofessional.

I would love to be able to play the game but the game doesn't even load. Never had mods. I was hoping this update would have fixed the load up screeen but it didn't. I've tried all the different things to make this game work. It would eventually work for a few days and then again stop working.

Tried to play the game with the new update, ran glitchy for the first try now won't even start. Uninstalled and reinstalled the game but having the same issue, my money has pretty much been thrown down the drain. Why are we forced to apply updates that break the game???

Cannot play game. Won't start. Got error msg in log of:
rome2_17561_crash_2018_1_5T21_18_49C0.mdmp

repeatedly ater each time trying to start the game

yep i got the same error message

Running fine for me

@Steven - Just because it breaks the game for *you* doesn't mean it does for everyone else, thus perhaps you shouldn't make the assumption that the patch does it for everyone. Also, given that other people aren't having problems playing the game with the new patch, perhaps you should check to see if something *else* broke or if something is causing your game to not work.

That has always been the biggest issue with PC gaming: people always jump to teh conclusion that the problem is *always* the game, they never stop to think that something might've happened after they stopped playing, for example I can't play Rome 2 either right now but it has nothing to do with the patch and more to do with other issues going on with my system.

How can I get DLC`s??

Game wont start and I havent even updated it. Come on TW whats going on?

@Kalshion-**Calm Down**. So lets follow the **facts** here, game worked **before** update--Updated--Game not working **after** update. Same computer, same OS, same ambient temperature, so using **our** logic it's clear that the update is to blame.

But let me know how you go, chears mate :)
