  • This is MASSIVE Total War News. Never had I thought we'd hear of a Total War Star Wars game, but here we are. The reason I am so certain this is the real deal, is because this news is reported and corroborated by several outlets with their own sources, Dualshockers, Tom Henderson (Insider Gaming), and veteran members of the Total War Center. They all say the same thing - Total War Star Wars is in development, and is likely to be Creative Assembly's next flagship title. I'd like to stress that journalists like Tom Henderson is no Sunday leaker - he leaks and reports on things that actually come true in all or the vast majority of cases, and takes this stuff very seriously.
    Sources:
    Dualshockers: www.dualshockers.com/total-wa...
    Insider Gaming: insider-gaming.com/total-war-...
    Total War Center: www.twcenter.net/forums/showt...
    In other words, even though there's always a chance these rumors may not be true, the amount of sources here, and importantly - where the sources come from and who they are - really do lead me to believe that a Total War Star Wars, Warhammer 40K and World War 1 are in the works and are planned for release within the next 1-5 years depending.
    But what do you think? Do you agree with my reasoning or do you for some reason not trust these sources? Let me know in the comments, and make sure to leave a like and subscribe to the channel!

      What are you talking about? They made another historical title fairly recently (Pharaoh) and last time I checked, WWI is very much a historical period. I'm quite interested in a WWI game, it could introduce a ton of new interesting mechanics. Why do so many people think that non historical titles mean that the historical ones are somehow dead? The historical side of Total War hasn't really changed in size or output that much. It just didn't grow as much as other parts did, because it doesn't make as much money.

      It's the only 1 that could be adapted but the caveating involved to make it plausible would quickly stick it into the realms of fantastical alternate history before it even began. All the historical titles have the scope to be alternate history in that you can go in different directions but they all start in a historically grounded place prior to. This wouldn't be possible with WW1 unless they made it really saga-like hyper focused on a very specific region and time period within WW1.

How many dev teams do they have? Did they open a portal to the warp for infinite resources? It would believable if they were only developing 40K and Star Wars.
    I think that Total War is going to abandon historical entirely. It's not making them money and they haven't had a success with historical since 2018 with 3K, which they proceeded to foul up during its DLC cycle. 40K, LOTR, Star Wars, etc. all these are easy winners that even CA can't mess up and promise years of DLC income, which is a logical step forward from TW Warhammer.

    The fact that Total War is not developing is solely the fault of CA. They have a lot to grow in terms of mechanics, but they just make the same game with slightly different textures. They have not been able to bring the fleet to mind, to make it a significant part of the gameplay, so that players need to use it for a comfortable game and at the same time make naval battles interesting enough in themselves. They did not bring to mind the sieges, which still very vaguely resemble what actually happened, it is necessary to introduce a greater importance of various engineering structures in them, it is necessary to create a siege camp so that the besiegers do not stand in an open field, it is necessary to increase the importance of walls, which are now almost useless, it is necessary to remove pocket ladders, add moats, shafts, the need to overcome them and so on. Sieges can generally be made such a mini-game inside the game. The main troops are also not all right, there is no supply in the game and I can send my army from Crimea to Britain without having a single transshipment base along the way, which should not be the case. The hiring of armies itself could be radically reworked, because now in the game any army of any most barbaric state is in fact regular, although in fact various forms of militia fought mainly in the centuries before the 18th century, this could lead to a bunch of interesting situations when, for example, you can't fight for too long because your the troops will simply disperse, as they need to harvest crops, and much more. I don't even touch on the topic of domestic politics and economics, there is boundless space there, there would be a desire, but there is none. There is a desire to sell players a twenty-year-old game in a new wrapper. It's so frustrating to realize what huge opportunities CA is missing out on because of its greed.

    It makes me sad that there won't be another Three Kingdoms. Its an interesting time period, and 3k had some of the best features I've seen in any total war game to date. The campaign map experience was unmatched(personally), except for the map design. The UI was exceptional and I really hope it can be used in more TW games. The UI made the game feel much more realistic, with resources like supplies, for cities and armies.
    The army system was super interesting, as it only makes sense that armies that have fought under a general would remain(somewhat) loyal to that general.

The meta will just be tanks and you beat the game just like real life, you can’t expect me to use cavalry, on every front it was a meat grinder war of attrition.

  • @atomicLord97
    @atomicLord97 Місяць тому +2

    Considering how WWI was fought, I feel a WWI total war is the most realistic one CA could develop and release to satisfy the community. I mean it was massive infantry pushes and tank pushes n thanks to WHTW we have seen steam tanks, why not slap some A7V's or some Saint-Chamond tanks down. Empire and napoleon gave us a system for regiments taking cover behind barricades, in buildings, and on fort walls for the ranged units so applying that to a trench line would be easy. the trickiest part would be figuring out the WWI styled artillery which ranged from 37mm to 420mm. WWI would be the one I expect to be best received and easiest to make. 40k would be the second most likely one given total war warhammer's... "success?" perhaps persistent is a better term. 40k has a mix of tanks, melee units, and ranged units, siege units, monsters, but considering that some ships (especially in the Imperium) have guns on them bigger than a super star destroyer? I doubt there would be naval combat, it would most likely be locked to a single planet like the battle of Kronus featured once already in Dawn of war Dark Crusade meaning we would get chaos, space marines, imperial guard, tau, orks, necrons, and eldar to play around with. Star wars though? I haven't a clue how they would work that one into a total war styled game. Maybe planets will function like settlments and you would be able to build fleets and train armies from them? blockading a planet instead of besieging it and landing an army to invade and take said planet? That would work for making a truely massive Starwars total war aswell as a 40k total war. I see em releasing 40k total war first, as warhammer is ca's thing at the moment, then starwars, cause fantasy has been ca's thing for awhile, and finally WWI. Ideally I'd say they should release WWI total war first, then starwars, and finally warhammer.

    For more recent players trying to understand older ones comments about recent historical games being "not historical" (I'm somewhat in the middle): it's not specifically about the historical accuracy itself but about their old formula:
    - armies not requiring commander to be able to move and fight
    - units without hp with kill chance calculated depending on different factors
    - sieges that actually work and are intense with defense structures being meaningful
    - technologies actually unlocking new units and buildings
    - unit formations
    - deeper strategy systems like proper population, growth
    Etc.
    CA made a lot of small changes with each new game that combined into Total War formula drifting further and further from what attracted original fans of the series

    Personally I'm wondering about a few things;
    How much a Warhammer 40K Total War will differ itself from the Dawn of War series (or whether that's old enough that we need not worry)?
    What trilogies will feature in a Star Wars Total War and how you'd transition between them (perhaps an event causes the Republic, then later Empire, to fall and your clan then chooses loyalties between the successors)?
    How will a World War One Total War deal with the Firepower Revolution and the shift in urban combat from Wall and Street Fighting to Barricade and House to House fighting?
    As the big block units of previous Total War games would be shredded by machine guns more than they were against the Gatling Guns in Fall of the Samurai as rapid fire weapons are more ubiquitous by 1914 and even rifle infantry have a far faster rate of fire than previous eras with British Rifle Infantry in 1914 being trained to fire 15 aimed shots a minute as a base line (with some being able to manage up to 42 in the Mad Minute competitions) not to mention the range of artillery in the first world war and the increased size of the battlefield compared to previous conflicts.

    Example of this, look at battlefront 1 from EA. when we all head EA was making a new battlefront, how many of us thought it'd be like the og battlefront? how many people thought "omg we're getting a battlefield set in star wars?!" it was so hyped, and then it came out and it was hardly like battlefield. It was similar, but not it, and it feels like they dumbed it super down so that new players (as star wars is huge, it's going to bring people who've never played battlefield, or in the previous case, RTS/Total wars before) could jump in and understand the game easily. Even battlefront 2, it feels (although not AS much) dumbed down from something like battlefield which it is obviously trying to replicate without full diving into a battlefield experience.
    I want the game to keep its total war feel, but seeing as whenever it comes to huge IP's like Star Wars , I'm extremely afraid that Total War Star Wars will come out looking like a saga or worst

    Honestly, I hopeful for these games, they could be a fun new twist, especially the idea of space and ground combat and really love the idea of a WW1 TW but it does worry me that they may stick to things I have hated the most about prior games like unkillable faction leaders and makes me worry they are drifting so far from the classic original style that made it great that we will end up seeing TW become something unrecognizable from what I originally loved and abandon any chance for the desperately requested Medieval 3 and Empire 2.

    I would love a Victorian era total war but with the main story/campaign focusing on the U.S. Civil War. Then of course I would want this map to include the whole entire world or at least most of it. I think the main focus for the grand campaign should include building an empire or trying to keep your empire alive depending on who you play as. If HOI4 can have a map of the entire world then Total War can as well. This will of course will need them to bring back navy combat but even better than before with the introduction of iron clads while some navy’s around the world were still using wooden frigates

    Total War battles are based around formations fighting each other as one unit. The invention of the machine gun necessitated the breakup of those formations otherwise you'd have an absolute blood bath on your hands. Soldiers in the First World War and especially WW2 and beyond are not going to pack together in groups of 100-200 and shoot at each other like men did in the 18th century. Land Battles in WW1 and certainly in 40k also absolutely dwarf nearly anything from the Ancient and Medieval eras. Maybe they can make it work but I think the battle mechanics will have to be totally reworked.

    My worry about the World War I total war is that it’ll just become a game of numbers. in previous games you could be out numbered 3 to 1 but as long as you were smart about it and you some clever maneuvers to outflank your opponents you could win most battles. World War I however, I can’t really picture how that would work the technologies just to advance. I just hope that these next few titles aren’t as cartoony as the last few ones.

    I think the biggest concern I have is the attitude that CA has had. The biggest of which being the statement regarding the potential lifetime of the Star Wars TW has to “attract a large audience pool and have a long DLC plan” it just screams that it will be a shell of a game filled with of issues that you have to spend hundreds of dollars in dlc just to make it a playable experience

    I dont know how to feel about the Star Wars one. I dont think Creative Assembly will properly overhaul the battle and battlemap system for this game. I am still interested to see where this goes. Maybe I will be wrong, I hope.

    I understand they want a hero inspired play style, but experience soldiers are heroes too, just not invincible lol
