@@Wisdomisgood448 there is no excuse for total war not being able to have realistic army and battle sizes. It's such a shame that no one has came in to sweep up the market. I cant imagine a playing a total war style game set in the napoleonic age with battles of 100k plus men over realistic battlefield sizes. It can be done.

What an astonishing technology. Some ideas for the future, imagine PvP, where both sides can spend a certain amount of points to buy units of their choice and lead your army to victory through the tactical and strategical decision like formation, defend/attack location, etc. And in the end, having different factions who have different units and powers. Think of it, as our all beloved classic Heroes of Might and Magic III, gathering resources, building out castles, and buying units but next level battles where you can have all your army units physically on screen, 100K dragons, 500K archers, and so on. You're simply just getting started and the foundation you've built has an enormous potential curve.

Truly amazing. Along with the gaming implications like Total War, UEBS2 can be to recreate historical battles true to scale. Imagine battles like Cannae, Leipzig, Waterloo, Hastings, Yorktown, Thermopylae, Alexander's Campaign, etc. all accurately portrayed. Hopefully the final game would come with a robust map making and control systems so timelines of these battles can be programmed. We can then have a better idea of the scale of these history-making conflicts.

You can already do this in UEBS1, just spawn 2 armies on top of eachother! However, if 2 armies are running at eachother, a frontline is almost impossible to avoid. For them to spread out and fight among eachother, would require the AI to run past thousands of enemies ignoring them.

Here is something to consider adding, knockback. Such as, if a soldier is hit in shoulder, they actually react to it instead of just continuing to run.

This is crazy. Good devs actually optimizing the game. Also on UEBS 1 I'm having problems loading some maps like war torn. I start up a game even with only like 500 units, and it won't get past the loading screen. Anyone know how to fix.(also my gpu is a 1660 ti).

is there a chance for units to have and be able to switch between ranged and melee modes? also maybe units set to defend having a small perimeter they can move in to engage enemy, because otherwise standing units are always at a disadvantage

GPU Memory Plays A Big Role In Max Units GPU is by far the greatest factor in performance in UEBS2. The great news is, performance completely scales with the power of the GPU, but there is one important factor at play. GPU memory. If you max out the memory of your GPU, unfortunately performance can suddenly go from playable, to completely unplayable. This is because each AI runs on the GPU, therefore it's properties must be present on the memory. We have worked very hard to optimize and keep memory down, but I'll try to give you a good idea of the numbers of units you can expect in memory numbers. Keep in mind, these numbers will likely change closer to release. 3-4 gigs Cards - Max recommended units: 100 - 500k(These cards CAN reach 1 million but you risk stutters and slow downs). 6 - 8 Gig cards - Max recommended units: 1 - 4 million. 10 - 16 Gig cards - Max recommended units: 4 - 10 million. 20 - 24 gig cards - Max recommended units: 10 - 16 million. (Estimation since we do not own any card over 16gigs).

Brilliant

The best part about UEBS 1 was making armies fight in places with chokepoints so the bodies piled up, or setting a group of uber units to stand still while tens of thousands came in from all around. 60K was the most the game could comfortably handle without lagging so I stuck with that but now I am definitely looking forward to UEBS 2 coming out

Or even Napoleonic era battles, though I am guessing that would require a bit more work due to firing mechanics and marching in formation etc. It's very impressive!

Absurd.. can you imagine this combined with total war AND mount and blade all in one game.. I would cry

I can't wait till this becomes the standard, no more unit caps at 10k with lags like *total war series as much as I like the games. In the next few years technology will have advanced so much that anything less than displayed here will be considered below standard. Simple copy paste redundant legacy code for the same old functionality won't cut it any more, this change of mind and together with emerging new technology we can do what was once thought unbelievable and make it an exciting reality.

With the new overhaul will we see even more customization and/or mod support for custom characters? The capabilities that already exist are great I’m just curious. Definitely looking forward to the release of this (:

I have a few questions... Will we be able to save replays of our battles? Can we save the battles themselves so we can play them again at a later time? Are we gonna have really really big castles? Can we have really really big units? Like, Godzilla sized units? How complex can the unit ai really get? Could they have an optional stat for morale, where if they take enough damage or witness enough death around them they would retreat? Can we set different formations instead of having just squares and rectangles? Can we have units move in formation where they all move slower but in unison and never break from a certain shape unless they have to for, let's say, a hallway? Could we put archers on a "skirmish" mode like in total war so they don't just stand around while they're getting stabbed? Would that conflict with the pathing of any ai moving behind them? None of these are deal breakers and I realize some of this may be a bit much to ask, but I definitely think they would be very nice improvements to have, should it be possible to implement them. On a final note, that pathing render was a sight to behold. Chef kisses for days, my friend.

I hope more units from more movies appear on this too. Nobody is making units for the game anymore. I've seen some stupid units made while so many like: Soviet, British ww2, North Korean, isis, & Civil War soldiers. Other 40k units like Whiteshields, ogryns, ratlings, Kriegsmen, tyranids, catachans, Orks, bloodaxes, etc Judges, Terminators, Leaf ninja, Frieza force, One Piece Marines, saibamen, etc still havent been made for this game.
