I've played it. It's feels like a bigger, better, more complete version of the first one. I was surprised just I much it looked, sounded, and played like the first. But they've made alot of good improvements. I'm still adjusting to the some of the controls they've changed, but it's for the better. Definitely getting the collector's edition when it comes out.

I tried it but the gameplay still doesn't really appeal to me. It feels way better than BFME1 but that isn't really hard to beat.

I do think the controls are a bit retarted. Half of the command require the right mouse button while the other half require the left mouse button. So far I haven't found a way to change it.

I gave myself a porter from each side so I could build everything in the game (ini coding is present in the demo) but Isengard and Mordor models were all missing (except for the porter, which is the same as Goblins). Elven buildings are all present but all unit models are missing and Treebeard refused to move. In the end it can get quite hard to control an invisible force that you build from invisible building

replaceing units makes them invisible is there a new way to model units or do the skeletons make them unrenderble.

model used was a stupid tank that i wanted to test with the battlewagon.

For new units you have to 'recompile' assets.dat. I don't know if the assetcachebuilder from BFME1 works but it is worth a try.
