Rome 2 : Total War

I picked it up and again CA has released an unfinished game. They have already announced that they will be releasing weekly patches for it and released the first patch on Friday and then a Hotfix yesterday to fix the patch. I'd wait if I were you until they get the major bugs fixed which may be a while. CA has said that SEGA made them release it a month before it was ready, but it looks more like 2 or 3 months.

Never got the chance to play Rome 1. From what I read on the forums though, Rome 2 will be a step up once they squish all the bugs. One problem I do see is that other factions always ask for at least 10 % of any cash you have and if you want to offer something less it isn't possible since it only lets you add cash to an offer in increments of 10% of your cash total. It should, let you enter an amount instead of a fixed percentage increase.
