Revolting cities returning to original faction and not rebels

[chwillie01]

After downloading the new version of Medieval 2 total war (version 1.52), if i conquer a new city and it revolts it returns to the previously owned faction. For example if im playing as the moors and i capture palermo, if palermo revolts it returns to sicily instead of becoming a rebel city. anyone know how to fix this and make the city become a rebel city? please help

"Fix it"? I prefer it this way! :D I hope this is how it works in my game. :D

Nothing wrong in a sense of national identity. I guess that's what they did to the game?

When did this happen? This so called update?

I played britannia campaign as England, Cardiff always revolt and it's turn to rebel settlement. But I think I have seen England's city in Ireland revolt to Ireland's settlement. May be it's depend on King's authority value of shadow faction.

I don't remember the last time I've had a city revolt..

Makes more sense to me...

I don't know why you're complaining. Just don't let the buggers be unhappy for more than one turn of roiting. It helped me as the Byzantines when the Mongols took Antioch.

Hasn't this always been a thing? I have more experiences with the other Total War games (this is my most recent one), but I thought the rebels returning to their original factions has been a thing since Rome.

I did see it on Rome 1 while the faction was still alive, and yes in Empire upwards the original nation can come back as rebels, yet it was strangely never in Medieval 2 from what I know. But it also isn't just you conquer a home province and they can come back. As I said in my previous post, I had taken Antioch as the Byzantines around turn 20, and due to the amount of time it had been occupied it must have got some kind of Byzantine cultural stamp so when the Mongols invaded and took it there was a Loyalist revolt after two turns. Quite handy, seeming though no one wants the ---ing Mongols to take root and breed (in the game, no offence meant to real life Mongolians)
