I used to love TA, no idea if a TA2 was ever planned?

I just reinstalled it under XP sp1 and it works without a problem!
I tried it under win2k and it bleated about the direct x version all the time, and crashed to desktop and stuff.
Back playing it now.

I heard that TA2 was planned for a release in 2004.

oooooo

Cheers Ted! :)

Just reformatted and installed XP instead of win2k so looks like some TA in store.

Ta for the nod about TA2, worse than the Stone Roses for releasing a follow up tsk.

Gurzk. I hassled tons of people into buying it and it turned out I couldn't play it online thanks to my currently unalterable ISDN firewall. Bep.

WIJ = SO VERY WRONG. And also I tried to buy Brood War a bunch of months back and couldn't find it anywhere.

Anyway, TA is better than Starcraft purely for the unit limit and the lack of the "can only select 12 units in one group" nonsense that Blizzard-made games seem to insist on. Though the differences between the sides in Starcraft is much better than in TA.
I'd be good as a game reviewer oh yes!!!!

Race differences own in SC.

AoM is great like that too.

TA2 - Q4 2004. Probably because Cavedog went under. [insert Wij's m00 ascii]

Thoughts on TA Kingdoms anyone? I thought it was a bit p00. :( Did anyone ever see the uber-Gods(tm) at all? Never saw them when playing in a skirmish and could never be arsed with the actual game. Shame really, i remember waiting anxiously for it way back when. :/

Lots of us in [G] have TA but can't seem to organise a good tcp/ip game.

Look us up on irc if you wanna organise us :)

Kingdoms just doesn't seem to appeal. TA was just the best RTS game ever, everything else just pales in comparison.

I wonder if a BWTAL is on the cards?;)

Thinking about it, its a peer-to-peer game, so we could play one ourselves of an afternoon and see how it goes. I think singles and teamplay knockout? I know I'll get my ass whipped unless its a really small map, or I get to play an idiot.;)

Yeah standard tcp/ip affair. Don't think Louster has got his working yet though.

But you know where I am if you wanna play young william :)

Haven't played it in a while, I downloaded loads of stuff for a while ago, but I think I got rid of it all, mainly due to Lack of Spae on my HD the game, with all Mods units etc took nealy 10GB up
