As the title suggest; I would like to ask if it is possible to see a demo gameplay of the inquisitor soldiers being included in a siege or an all out war.  

 

In Pax Prime last year, the fort in Ferelden was being attacked but there was no sign of active soldier AIs fighting off the enemy factions.

 

This year, it was highlighted over and over that supporting your inquisition is really important because of consequences but there was no footage of such that could prove this other wise.  

 

What I'm afraid of is probably what happened with mass effect 3 and their galaxy preparedness system.  I just don't want to have a number going up and that would be enough that I was "ready" for battle.

 

 So for the next gameplay trailer or probably a demo (maker hopefully) it it possible to showcase the inquisition fighting as an army taking a fort or something with that "fist shaped battering ram" (Mike Laidlaw).

 

Since I have some ideas how I'm hoping the inquisitor is fighting with the troops:

 

 

or this:

Those are some terrible examples. Dragon age is not an RTS of any form. I love the total war series, and I loved the Kingdom Under Fire series, but both rely on mechanics and tropes that dragon age just doesn't lend itself well too. At least not with the direction we were shown at E3.

 

Unless you just mean fighting alongside large numbers of troops. That is probably more likely.

In the Crestwood (or what ever the name of the town was) demo from PAX Prime (or East maybe?) our Inquisitor comes on his men after a fight they had, they are wounded and you have the option to send those still in fighting shape to the village, the keep or have them stay with the wounded. Then as you walk towards the village you see the Red Templar fighting the villages, and you see them besieging the keep, fighting your men, so it seems that you will see your men fighting if you come across them while they are. Also in the E3 demo you see mages and Templar fighting and you can intervene, it seems the they have designed a dynamic world, so if your soldiers are on patrol in an area it is possible you can watch them engage enemies, but I doubt we'll see anything like a RTS mode.

I think they already said no RTS element at all.

Real Time Strategy

I think they would have to look at it like multiplayer, if it can be added to the game without impacting the single player story then fine. It should not be FORCED onto the player. I personally don't go for strategy games as a genre because don't have the patience and don't enjoy that type of game

Dragon age is an action rpg not a rts, making it so would possibly hurt the core and existing fanbase. I don't necessarily believe a feature like that could be added without impacting single player campaign, and if it wasn't tied to the campaign it's inclusion would be redundant a waste of valuble resources.

 

The only way it could work would be to use the quests you send your agents on 'behind the scenes'. Instead of it being behind the scenes you could play those quests in rts mode or whatever, i also suggested this in a different thread about multiplayer options.

Rts isn't something that this game would lend itself to very well. But would it be so super difficult to have a couple inquisitorial soldiers accompany you on a mission where you encounter an above usual number of enemies? Like keep it balanced, but would throwing in some NPC soldiers battling near you in some sections be so hard?

[adorkable-panda]

i would not want some rts war scenes. it's not very dragon age-y for me and is too wide of a scale. What I would like to see though would be something akin to Saint's Row where you could have gang members, or in this case, inquisition soldiers be walking around miscallaneously and fighting off enemies that appear and in certain battles will come to your aid and back you up if there are a lot of enemies and the environment lends itself to a wider scale battle like the defense of redliffe or the battle on the hills in DA2

In the first one couldn't you call in armies to fight with you? Why can't they just do that again?

Because it was somewhat lame?

It was less "call your armies to fight for you" and more "summon two or three NPCs of X unit type to fight." They'd replace each other as they fell, but it was hardly the selling you were commanding an army.

I'd like armies to play an indirect, but visible role in the game. Like how SO many players of ME3 envisioned if they had provided the extinct dinosaur DNA for Krogan mounts, they would see their Krogan armies charging forth on them. I understand why such a thing is difficult to implement, but something like it (scenes where as the Inquisitor fights, we see forces fighting adjacently in a separate conflict that reflect who our allies are) would be very cool.

Thats strange when i summoned my dwarf allies to fight the dragon, there were at least 10 out. It felt like a swarm lol.

I imagine you'll have troops patrolling an area in which you have previously claimed (via a keep)

If they come across other factions such as the red templars they will most likely engage.

 

Based on bits and pieces the dev's have said in interviews, the idea is that you can walk into an area and see a group of mages and templars already fighting.

 

In regards to ME3 War Assets, when I got back to earth I was so looking forward to seeing the rachni, krogan, aria's forces fight in the cutscenes but nope generic human soldiers. Alas something I thought would of been great was missed. Made collecting all the support tie down to an external number count which in all honesty was extremely lame.

 

As long as the inquisition army soldiers actually has a physical presence, i'm happy, looking forward to sieging a keep/castle by battering ram 

 

Trojan War Horse anyone?
