In reality claiming that modding will split the community without actually knowing how mods will be used in game is irrelevant. If we do not know how mods are implemented into the game then we have no way of knowing how they will affect ranked games or regular games or if modding will even be considered a 3rd type of game that is not ranked or normal mode. For all we know if they implement a system good enough they can eventually have a voting system using steam's workshop and add mod contributions from the game into the official game on steam and dispatch them as updates to the entire community so you always need to have the latest version to play forcing everyone to have the same version.
I think some mods will work as they have in the past a clan will like a particular type of gameplay and make a mod that reflects that gameplay. It will be open to the community of course, but they will split the community just as they have in the past but no more than being in a clan or not wanting to play certain types of gameplay.
It's hard to go past Marche de la Garde Consulaire and de la Victoire est en Nous. Maybe the era is slightly late for Cossacks 3.
Is no one else concerned the fact that there is no game-play videos yet and release is less than 2 months? Sorry, but I have been here since day 1, and pictures mean nothing to me anymore.... My .02
They will show gameplays when it will be possible to preorder the game. My guess is in about 2 weeks because they said preorder will be available a month before the game releases.
"There will be also a lot of gameplay videos near game release, so you could see how it plays before you can buy it" - Official Cossacks 3 on Facebook. So you will see gameplay and still be able to preorder it. They just want to show a finished game, not a work-in-progress one ; that's why they refused to do the Steam Early Access and it's a good thing in my opinion.
im glad they dont show unfinished product look at games like DayZ standalone so much hype and now ghost servers H1Z1 was supposed to be free to play i was so hyped for this and then bam pay 20$ for each part of the game together same game that was supposed to be F2P cost 40$ i can go on and on and on but you get the point and here i know they do what they can to make best game not wasting any time for stupid movies or gameplays im really glad
Every building in Cossacks 3 has its own historical prototype. Prussian townhall - Charlottenburg Palace in Berlin. https://www.instagram.com/cossacks3/
Many of them but not all. Eg. Turkey hasn't historical buildings. I believe it will be develop in future.
