I think it will be full of bugs and lack of features, that reminds me of Stronghold 3 release but the case here is even worse, not even one gameplay video, or even screenshot of how the UI looks like.
I hope I am wrong though...

Nothing could be as bad as Stronghold 3, remember the Knights on invisible horses and the bears that could{magically}climb ladders.

Yes I remember those, and how there was no Skirmish mode and how multiplayer never worked, was a nightmare for me as I was super hyped for it before the release, I just hope that this experience wont happen again with Cossacks 3 release or at least not as bad.
Anyway, 9 hours left,  I dont think they have time to show any gameplay before release, lets wait and see.

Rather excited about this release. Really hope the amount of bugs etc. remain limited. I was a great fan of the original and this one looks solid!

Not sure what to think about initial feedback, seems all over the place....haven't found any actual game video yet, that might help me make up my mind.

Waiting for a groghead feedback.
Pulled the trigger on Oriental Empries just now.

Looks disappointing to me. Cannons without crews? Environment that isn't animated and is not destructible? Poor AI? Really seems to be Cossacks 1 with higher res graphics. I'm going to hold off for now.

Same here, I think it should be named Cossacks HD edition/ remake.

Even though not that expensive, might turn out to be a game that I'll wait until goes on sale for a few dollars if even then.  Nothing I have seen or heard since yesterday is making me rush out to purchases, besides my normal impulsive nature:)

It should be because that's exactly what it is.

But it wasn't marketed as a gfx update with some Coss1 things taken out and some extra campaigns and missions, right? Am I misremembering?  :-\ There were supposed to be gameplay improvements.
