I wonder if we'll get a "Suez Portage" to connect the major bodies of water in some way or if the indian ocean and the atlantic/mediterranean seas will remain completely separate beasts. (Problem with the latter is that they used to say that the AI can't work out separate sea areas, which is why the east coast of Africa has no boats at all)

It looks like their are seazones, so I assumed that the reason must be that boats will work there. But who knows.

If you hold the Aztec Empire title in ck2, will you gain control of their land in the Americas in eu4 if you use the converter? Screenshots I've seen suggest that they're the same country, but thought I'd ask here first before I tried it myself.

not really interested in playing india, but the free changes and map expansion would make a revisit worthwhile.

Anyone else pick this up? I feel like it is more of the same, just in India. The Indian portraits freak me out. Maybe I haven't found the differences yet.

Yeah was not in a rush to get this. Maybe when it's 2$ on a steam sale.

I have played too much CK2 anyway, not much fun anymore. Getting from count to king is fun, but once you get that it's way too easy.

They release so much of RoI anyway in their usual patches that I'd just skip it and technically play it anyway, the biggest draw for me is the map expansion and that's already bundled in.

For people who play CK2 on and off this patch breaks save compatibility, although who needs an excuse to start again? Time to carve out a nice little Persian empire without having to resort to european expansion.

Yeah, the expanded map means the save just couldn't be mapped meaningfully to the new world. Because of this the 2.0.4 version will be available indefinitely through the beta tab on Steam.

Amazingly this fucking DLC & Patch broke a lot of shit, so you actually get a worse game after this DLC is released.

And I've discovered that if you have a stand-alone client, ha-ha, fuck you.

I bought it from Gamersgate, where I'd purchased the original game and all the expansions and DLC to date. All you get is a Steam code. Better go buy it all again on Steam, loser! Ohhhhh, I see.

From what I heard, you were supposed to get a steam key for each piece of DLC too. If you didn't you should contact Gamersgate support about that.

Had the base game and it's DLC's through Gamersgate as well and they added a separate "DLC collection" item in my games section with a steam code after the move to Steam, easy to miss if you're not looking for it.
Do believe there were a few of the DLC's I still had to add seperately after it but everything I owned was moved over just fine. Or take Cironians advice if it's not there, either way no need to re-purchase any that you had.

So basically I should just stay the fuck away from this until they've patched up some shit?

If you switch to the new beta patch on Steam, it's mostly fine. Muslims are a bit OP once more due to new mechanics, but otherwise no big problems.

Under no circumstances play the non-beta patch version though, that one's one of the most buggy releases they put out in a long while.

Gamersgate's customer support got me Steam codes, and I should be happy and grateful, but at the moment I'm annoyed by the fact that I had to get them all by scrolling through their dodgy game library UI, selecting each one infividually, clicking "show serial key," and then cut and pasting each into Steam's series of "activate product code" popups.

I did this 22 times, for the game and every piece of DLC. -_-

Wow this game must be still hella popular for them to still be miliking it. It's inferior AI to even EU IV becomes apparent once you reach a rank of (stable) kingdom unfortunately. From count to king it can be fun but after that easy mode. Pdox needs to work on an engine upgrade.

I've only got 46 hours but I lost my last save games when my hard drive crashed last month, so I'll have to start over at some point. Did they ever fix the wonkiness that the Rajas DLC added?

Same here. I've skipped the Raja dlc so far (maybe next sale) but I'm really looking forward to spending too many hours in the game again once the Charlemagne dlc is released.

Just looked and I have 519 hours.

I tried Raja's out, thought it added nothing to the game and haven't been back. Still having fun with the Old Gods expansion. Recently became Emperor of Scandinavia that encompassed all of Scandinavia, a good chunk of northern Russia, all the British Isles, and Holland. The only Christian kingdom left with any power is France. Playing with Gavelkind really sucks early on.

I have 362  Ohhhhh, I see., I think the whales are inflating this one.

What wonkiness did RoI add? The new dlc looks like a huge waste of time, Old Gods and Legacy of Rome still the only DLC's worth buying.
