    Dealing with a counter to your counter?

    Posted: 12 Jan 2020 08:02 AM PST

    Howdy.

    A big problem for me I've realized is what to do when I get countered, after countering my opponent.

    I was playing Arabia 1v1 Aztecs vs. Persians. I had a rough start so opted to hang out a bit, but got some good scouting in and saw he was making M@A in Feudal. Kinda a weird choice, but I said "Okay, I'll make some archers and deal with the rush.

    He rushed, it was a little sloppy, but the archers prevailed.

    Beautiful! So I've already committed a bit to archers, might as well continue and push eco with them.

    So I do, get up to castle, get xbow, and push his eco - taking out an in-construction castle and moving the line toward his front-of-base.

    And then he makes skirms. No problem! I'll switch to eagles - it was my long-term strat any-

    oh fuck he already had M@A and now he has Champs.

    GG

    What was my mistake here? Was it committing to Eagles, even though I knew he already had the infantry line upgraded? Or, otherwise, what should I do when he starts a push with his counter-deathball? It's too late to get a new tech tree going - did I just get out played? Should have gone for Jag - Skirm or some comp like that after knowing he would counter my xbows?

    Definitive Edition vs HD Edition

    Posted: 12 Jan 2020 07:15 AM PST

    Hi all,

    So I'm just getting back into AoE2 - I played a load of the HD version 2/3 years ago and loved it. I've now seen there is a 'Definitive Edition'.

    My question is - outside of the stated changes and differences between the two - how does DE play in comparison to HD? Is it worth the upgrade for the new Civs and AI or is it just mainly a graphical upgrade?

    Me and friends used to basically just play as a team vs. AI if that helps?

    Thanks!

    Same Map, Same Position, Same Zoom. Mod or No Mods?

    Same Map, Same Position, Same Zoom. Mod or No Mods?

    Hmm, I can't decide which is better.

    I might need some help on this one.

    Do you prefer 1 or 2?

    AoE2DE Windows edition hotkeys issues (in-game + Logitech)

    Posted: 12 Jan 2020 09:03 AM PST

    Hello everyone,

    Me and some friends bought yesterday AoE2DE on the Windows Store.

    But thing is, our hotkeys are reset everytime we reload the game, and also I'm a Logitech G502 mouse user and I just can't get the Logitech Software to create a profile for this game. (Being an AZERTY user, default hotkeys are just unplayable)

    I tried to search for a config file or something in the game folder but found nothing (no ".hki" file as I saw on several forums). Could be a temporary solution if I found it but having to copy-paste a config file everytime I reload the game isn't really a good solution of course...

    And so, about the Logitech issue, when I try to link the executable to a profile (so, to make the profile work within the game), Windows just tells me I ain't got access to the file ("not the owner" or something like that - I'm a French user so I ain't got the specific translation for that error message).

    I already dealt with "security" issues with files in the past but I always managed to change the file's ownership and authorizations (total control), but this time I can't change that even tho I'm like super administrator and everything, I really don't understand.

    So well, if someone could help me to fix those things, I would really appreciate that because I just won't keep playing long with those issues.

    Thanks in advance !

    Build Order: Arena > Fast Castle

    Posted: 12 Jan 2020 02:38 AM PST

    Is there a specific build order for a Fast Castle on Arena? I've been able to get to Fast Castle by about 16 mins, but I'm wondering if there is a build to achieve this even more quickly?

    MODS not working on DE

    Posted: 12 Jan 2020 08:12 AM PST

    Hi everyone!

    I bought DE when it came out, and since then i couldn't enable the small tree mod.

    I know how to subscribe/download the mod, but when i do these steps, theres a red "!" On the mod selection page.

    I wrote on the official forum and found some other players with the same issue, but it has been weeks and nothing is fixed :(

    I only want my small trees !!

    Am i the only one with this issue? Can somebody help?

    [2.2] Color Fix not working, any ideas?

    Posted: 12 Jan 2020 07:02 AM PST

    I've got the CD version of the game updated to forgotten empires 2.2 (I think that's as high as you can get without steam?). I'm encountering a strange issue where some of the colors are messed up.

    This is not the common issue where grass becomes red, water becomes purple, etc. Only very few colors are shifted. I think it seems like only the first few colors of the palette are shifted, because all the player colors are shifted one step. Player 8 is white, 7 is purple, etc. Player 3 is dark red. Player 1 and 2 are both dark blue. Most of the other colors look fine. Grass looks like it has some snow sprinkled on it.

    The game is definitely playable on a non-competitive level, but it can be hard to see some thing like relics on the minimap for instance. So I've been trying to fix it. I've tried:

    • FixAoFE.exe
    • DirectDrawFix
    • Killing explorer.exe
    • Updating nvidia drivers
    • Disabling visual themes, running on xp sp2 compatibility mode, with 256 colors, etc.

    Nothing seems to make a difference.

    The strange thing is, when copy pasted across, the exact same installation runs fine on my laptop.

    I'm wondering if I've applied too many fixes at once, that the directdrawfix was unnecessary with the FE version and that I need to remove the registry modifications it has done. Does anyone know what I need to modify in the registry to "uninstall" directdrawfix?

    Does anyone have any other ideas as to why this could be happening?

    Fast Castle on Migration - BUILD ORDER

    Posted: 12 Jan 2020 06:35 AM PST

    A couple of questions

    Posted: 12 Jan 2020 05:51 AM PST

    Hi guys I convinced a few of my friends to get the Definitive Edition when it goes on sale (hopefully sometime soon) and this has led me to the following 2 questions

    Are the Microsoft Store and Steam version 100% compatible (mods, scenarios and whatnot)?

    What would be good places to watch for this game to go on sale (as it might not on Steam any time soon) ideally someplace where theres a chance to get it for 15 euros or less?

    Thanks in advance!

    When does the Lithuanian Relic Bonus matter?

    Posted: 11 Jan 2020 12:51 PM PST

    Does anyone have/know of a breakdown of when the Lithuanian relic bonus matters? (As in when haveing one more relic would make a matchup between knight/paladin/Leitis/E_Leitis kills units in an integer # fewer swings?

    If not I'll run tests myself tonight.
