    Encountered a CHEATER in Ranked MM in DE, how to report?

    Posted: 16 Mar 2020 01:35 AM PDT

    As title says. Played vs this guy in Ranked ladder BF game just now, the way he played felt like a total noob so I was not really playing serious and just experimented with some builds. He clicked up to FC in 12 mins, with not taking a single boar and towards end of the game he spammed me with GENGHIS KHAN HERO UNIT. Like wtf?

    I went through the replay, turns out hes a noob just getting tributes from gaia the whole game and can create hero units IN A RANKED GAME???

    Please advise on how I can report him, as I did not see any option to do so. I have the rec if anybody wants to see this bullshit.

    So mad that I cant even play a ranked game in peace now.

    Heres the replay file download link: https://drive.google.com/open?id=13sgjfkc0HtDYn-hNin9I2Km5faXJWfQ7

    Kindly assist reporting this to the devs. 100% RANKED MM GAME

    Build order simulator - Alpha 1

    Posted: 16 Mar 2020 05:19 AM PDT

    I made a post a while ago about an idea I had for a build order simulator program. Now I have a basic implementation ready for testing and feedback. Initially the plan was to make it as a mobile app, but the UI requires a big screen to get a better overview of the build. So now the app exists as a web app and a standalone windows program. The web app is very slow at the moment, so I recommend the windows version.

    Download Links and Tutorial: https://github.com/RilleP/aoe_build_sim

    Web app: https://rillep.github.io/aoe_build_sim/

    Thanks for testing!

    Consistent Disconnects March 16th

    Posted: 16 Mar 2020 06:33 AM PDT

    So I'm playing in the lobby between work shifts, and I've been in about 9 games today and the vast majority of them have been ruined by constant disconnecting team mates. And it's always team mates and not enemy team members (probably just my lot in life though 🤷‍♂️).

    Is this happening for others today as frequently as I'm seeing it?

    HC3 Civ League (now with Show Matches): the rise of Khmer, the fall of Britons, the Slide of Celts

    HC3 Civ League (now with Show Matches): the rise of Khmer, the fall of Britons, the Slide of Celts

    Earlier in the qualifiers Britons were looking good; now they have a net Civ Disadvantage with three straight losses to Khmer on their favored map, Hideout. Khmer with their strong scorpions and super boom are as counterpick as it gets, denying the archer heavy civ any opportunities with strong cavalry and stronger economy. Britons can boom, but nothing on par with Khmer Fast Feudal into Fast Castle. And Briton archers have more range; but so do Khmer scorpions. Khmer even displayed a Fast Imp into Ballita Elephant cut, totally dominating this matchup.

    https://preview.redd.it/yddhosh7dym41.png?width=986&format=png&auto=webp&s=83a840e817a4499d808c59896208751be93f1b0a

    In other news, Chinese still remain at the top - with a singular win over Celts, who are now sliding downwards to become the worst performing civ. Celts took two losses with no wins, and they also lost to Japanese on High Tide, thanks to a lack of strength on the water. They did make it messy on land but in the end Japanese are too strong on hybrid maps.

    Indians have regained their small Civ Advantage with a win over Slavs - again on map Slopes, the only map they are picked on (because of the Shore Fish). As for Slavs, they are a bit more flexible, also appearing on map Gold Rush, but one loss to Khmer, then one near defeat to Saracens until an epic misplay by the Saracen pilot lost all the XBows (a connection drop might be the reason), leading to an instant resignation. Slavs despite their tremendous economy have struggled to collect results - checked every turn by Indians and Khmer, both civs with good ecos, too.

    Two new civs have joined the Civ League, Saracens and Koreans. Koreans are a very surprising pick, but the pilot was Hera, 2nd best player in the world, cruising to a dominating mastapiece win on map Cup with Turtle Ships backed by Trush.

    How alive is the multiplayer community of the HD (2013) version?

    Posted: 16 Mar 2020 06:46 AM PDT

    I was thinking about buying the game on steam, but i'm not sure if there's still enough people playing this version, since DE came out. Unfortunately, my pc can't handle the DE. So, is it still worth buying the HD one? Will it take forever to find matches?

    New player. Need help with Build Orders

    Posted: 16 Mar 2020 06:57 AM PDT

    Hey guys. New aoe2 player here. After playing sc2 for close to 10 years and after the huge letdown that was warcraft reforged i decided to pick up aoe2. So far i've been doing fine on ladder. 5 wins 2 losses 1150 elo so far but most of my wins come from purely macro because other players have trouble constantly making workers and spending their money so i usually just overrun them at one point despite coming out worse from dark/feudal age.

    Now I despite watching build order videos on the opener and also watching lots of viper videos trying to see how he opens i feel like there are some crucial mistakes that im making (not just a feeling, fact). Sometimes i randomly have a food shortage at around the 13th-14th villager and feel like im not managing my resources proplerly and also think im getting farms too early (maybe too little hunting and too many wood vils although i thought 4 was okay early).

    I would really appreciate if some high lvl players could add me on steam and show me a clean opening build order and what to watch out for as well as perhaps some more advanced build orders such as scout rush, man at arms rush or double archer rush. Feel like i would be getting my wins much more easily and smoothly if i got my early game was solid.

    Thanks in advance!

    UHD DLC, what does it do?

    Posted: 16 Mar 2020 08:28 AM PDT

    Is this just in general better graphics for the game? Or is it just higher texture pack?

    Playing smoothly with 6GB RAM?

    Posted: 16 Mar 2020 08:26 AM PDT

    Hello. I want to return to the aoe2, but as I can see everyone is playing Definitive version now. Before I buy the game, I am wondering if my laptop can provide smooth gameplay. All the specs are good (more than recomended) except for memory. I only have 6GB of RAM.

    Will the game run smooth?

    Thank you!

    What the COVID-19 response can teach us about AoE2

    Posted: 15 Mar 2020 08:46 PM PDT

    Scenario:

    Covid-19 = enemy units

    • Make sure you wall up early. You will likely have a hole. Any enemy units that get in will need to be quarantined within a trap. You have to have a decent reaction time to be able to pull off a trap. If you haven't invested into a strong pandemic response team, make sure you wall early!
    • If you are team-walled (European Union), make sure that your teammates tell you if they have enemies in their base.
    • You need to scout to know how many resources you need to spend defending yourself and if you have to temporary stop booming to protect your existing economy. This means locking gates so your teammates trade carts don't let the enemy in.
    • Make sure your allies don't take all the sheep (toilet paper) or boars (hand sanitizer) on the map.
    • And make sure your villagers get loom once it become available. Anti-loomers are the worst.
