Well it's been out since the 4th, I bought it today straight after school and installing it now.
I just want to know who else is getting it, and then maybe have a battle or two ^^

Empire: Total War is focused on exploration, economics, politics, religion, the founding of colonies and, ultimately, conquest. The game is set in the early modern period, spanning from 1700 to the early 1800s, allowing players to lead a variety of contemporary factions to dominate Europe, North Africa, the Americas and the Indies.

I GO THTE GAME IAND ITS AWESOME. LAGGY YET AWESOME. AND YES I RESERVED AND PLAYED IT ON THE 4TH. anyways, ill consider myself a smart noob as i know people who flank and take precautions. the thing is im jsut not used to the lag as for me i act so fast like in a fps that whenever it lags it "owns" my attension span and so forth. i live in US california and u know ur timezones i hope. if u have msn messenger or yahoo messenger lets meet up. o.o

>.> with every update the game gets worse... crashes when selecting fleets in particular... all I want is to conquer the last continent resisting me (N.-America). It seems like the programmers put in a piece of code to prevent Prussia from ever being able to attack N.-America with three navies consisting of 12 heavy third rates each...

lol, ur playing prussia to? i played to the point where im like hilter, i control france all the way to the territories of poland. =), totally love the german army, funny thing, in ww2 games i rock playing as the germans o.o. They give horrible updates, what we need is performance updates, like seriously, it lags that i have to put all my settings on low.

as to your statement, nvr got that far, the comps probably hate u and have banded together to see your death o.o.

I have conquered India and Europe, America is my best source of income and the last bastion that stands against me... no lag for me... just crashing and now the game won't even start...

(I'm in school and bored)

ah, of ya i forgot that u live in germany, stupid international date line -_-. Nice, conquering both of them, o.o, what i would do is like offer a bunch of regions for one in america then declare war on them and retake the regions o.o, that would be funny o.o.

tell me your steam username or nick so that I can add you...
