Creators should make a Napoleonic Wars

[historyplayer]

Basically what the title says, Who thinks this game idea would be base, like start small, regulated to Europe.

Been suggested many times and my opinion is no. I'll tell you why:
#1 If their dlc idea sticks, it be easier to firstly make two more dlc for the west and central area.
#2 Going back to Napoleonic Wars would be a game design stepback, worse weapons, less travel, etc.
#3 Even bigger and more detailed map because Europe was more Populated.(lot of work)
#4 Even more countries/factions that would need to be set up properly (lot of work)
#5 What people suggested the American Revolution War makes most sense, since the map is already there.

And even if so, it'll take years for a new game to come out if they ever want to make another. So keep talking about it again and again won't make it happen either. We should be happy for what we have right now.

That's simply ridiculous argument.
It all depends on game design and you can have interesting game simulating people fighting with sticks and stones, while you can also have simplistic design involving modern weapons.

Hopefully this series will gain momentum and devs will go back to Napoleonic Era at some point. I certainly would like to see that.

yup

Napoleon would be epic. and there is a massive void currently. however, a 2 man team cannot handle it well. or it would take years as already stated.

American Revolution seems the most likely second game.


also. the guy back handing the Napoleonic wars then suggesting the American revolution is hilarious to me

hmmmmmmmmm

ok to flesh this out a bit
you could do the 7 years war as a start, just the European sector

then the French Revolution

then the wars against the french republic

and finally the Napoleonic wars

yes the last two mix a bit. but that is perfectly fine

there you go
a road map for maybe 6 to 8 years of games

[Luxiwow]

With almost no financial gain. Those are super niche scenarios, and the 6-8 years you throw into the room are a long time. I'm not hating, but I know a few things about game design and video game market. I like the game and the team, otherwise I wouldn't keep involving myself in this forum. Nothing "hilarious " about it. Mister private profile.

1. Everyone that keeps suggesting there might be more future dlc for this game has not been paying attention to what the devs are saying...

2. I'm not sure the current team could pull off the Napoleonic Wars without seriously limiting the scope, and or limiting it to individual campaigns... but that doesn't mean they won't try. They've already proven that they are very ambitious with their vision for their games. Who knows, maybe they're already planning on expanding the team for the next game.

3. I've seen a few people suggesting the Seven Years War for the next game... Oliver has already made a Seven Years War game. It's old, but go check it out. I really hope they don't turn around and revisit a conflict they've already covered, when there are so many other interesting conflicts to explore

A Future DLC idea would be a either
the revolathorie war or WW1

WWI might be a bit much for awhile, as The Great War: Western Front (a WWI game) just came out recently. Though If they make it with the same scale that GT:CW has, then it would surely do well.

Seven years war, was the first game published by the DEV.

What about the War of the Spanish Succession? Don't forget to include Queen Anne's War; the map is already done.

I am joking. I think we should let the developers focus on fine tuning this game before thinking about other projects. You know how much you hate George RR Martin for losing focus.
