This game is crazy! Posted: 16 Apr 2020 05:17 PM PDT Basically I have been playing this game on and off for 18 years but am only now attempting to play online, and more competitive games (I used to build and build with my brothers and then have a huge battle 3.5 hours in). But the difference that mere seconds make in the early game, and the different strategies, and the history and shit. Damn, what a cool game! submitted by /u/brockzbet [link] [comments]

What happens when you convert a transport ship with units inside? Posted: 17 Apr 2020 01:04 AM PDT Do you automatically gain control of the transported units? That would be a great deal. In case not, do the enemy units stay still inside and you can decide whether you deploy them (random island) or if you directly delete the transport ship? This question fully applies to rams, siege towers, buildings and anything that can host population and be converted by monks. submitted by /u/Arturiki [link] [comments]

A thought on elephant archers Posted: 17 Apr 2020 06:58 AM PDT First of all, I'm not a great AoE 2 players, in fact I'm not particularly good at the game, so take everything I say with a huge pinch of salt. ​ The elephant archer is a unit that I've struggling to find a use for. It's kind of slow, rather expensive, has lackluster damage output, and have surprisingly poor range (one less than the arbalest). They have one thing going for them though (apart from looking kind of cool), and that's that they are tanky. Very tanky in fact. But for a backline unit like an archer, high HP and armour are generally not the most important stats (it helps, of course, but generally speaking, dealing a bit more damage is preferable to being able to take a bit more damage, for an archer unit). ​ But is approaching the elephant archer like an archer unit maybe not the right way to do it? Elephant archers have a very similar gold cost to another unit, namely battering rams. Battering rams are often viewed as a bit of an anti-archer unit, you can position them between yourself and the enemy's archer line, and the battering ram will soak up a lot of hits. Could this not be a potential role for the elephant archer? Elephant archers are very archer resistant, and unlike battering rams, they don't want to run away from archers, thus they're a bit less micro intensive. So basically plonk a few elephant archers down between your archers and theirs, and let them soak up the incoming fire. Their ability to shoot back is a nice bonus. They might not be quite as good as battering rams at this job, but they are 60% faster, and thus don't slow you down as much. ​ Would this be an appropriate niche for the elephant archer, or is this just something that would work in the lower skill bracket? submitted by /u/A_Fnord [link] [comments]

If your ELO is high on 1v1, your team ELO should adjust somewhat (if you haven't played any games yet). Posted: 16 Apr 2020 03:55 PM PDT I feel so bad. I'm only a 1150-1200 ELO 1v1 player, which is pretty good but nothing crazy, but I've only just started playing 2v2 and 3v3 on DE and it's so unfair to the people I'm playing, I'm basically inadvertently smurfing. I have single handedly carried my team to wipe out the opponents in multiple games. I feel bad for the 1000 ELO 2v2 players because they're just trying to have fun, but I need to climb the ELO latter to fight people my own size, so I need to win... Maybe if you've gained ELO in 1v1, and you haven't played a 2v2+ yet, your ELO should adjust a bit accordingly so you're not slaughtering lower ELO players and ruining their experience? Just a thought. submitted by /u/NorthVilla [link] [comments]

The game freezes and then speeds up Posted: 17 Apr 2020 06:46 AM PDT Anyone has this problem too? I already losed a vill to a boar because it. 11 Is this a known problem or is just me? By the way, i have a great PC, so isnt a performance problem. Any solution? submitted by /u/LioValiant [link] [comments]

Playing AoE2 on the cloud Posted: 17 Apr 2020 04:01 AM PDT So I'm on a mac and I tried installing VMware in order to try playing AoE2 DE (i tried doing wine and virtualbox, spent like 10 hours with no luck, it was a bit of a nightmare tbh). I noticed there are some new cloud gaming platforms like Nvidia Geforce Now (did not see AoE on there last time i checked), etc. Do any of these have AoE2 so I can connect to the cloud and play it? Really trying to play this cause i'm quarantined and havent touched it in over 10 years! Thanks in advance. submitted by /u/msg_boi [link] [comments]

What am I missing about Conqs? Posted: 17 Apr 2020 05:55 AM PDT The consensus seems to be that they're very good. Watching pros play they're afraid of the Conqs their enemies have, and go for them quickly as Spanish. I've played with them several times and struggle to hit things. I'll throw 20 Conqs into a woodline full of villagers and kill 2 or 3, where arbalasters or CA would have gotten 5 or 6. I watched 60 of them miss 3 consecutive shots at a villager walking by. They don't seem to take down buildings as quickly as paladins would, even with all 60 firing. In combat I guess they hold their own, but I'd still rather have Mangudai against almost every unit. What am I missing about Conquistadors? submitted by /u/Mystprism [link] [comments]

Website like hltv? Posted: 17 Apr 2020 08:13 AM PDT Is there a website where you can follow the competitive scene with stats and dates and links to the casters streams? submitted by /u/Yourpersonalpilot [link] [comments]

AOE2 HD no sound in game! I have it on the intro logo screen but then silence. I have tried these things: Posted: 17 Apr 2020 08:08 AM PDT Verified integrity of game files Removed the only mod I was using Updated Windows 10 There is no update for DirectX I don't have anything other than realtek integrated speakers Everything is at maximum and nothing seems to be muted. I have no problem with any other games. I have been having this issue but the usual fix was to just restart the game a couple of times but now no matter how many times I try it either crashes to desktop or will get to the in game screen with no audio I have an ASUS rogue with a i7 & 965M submitted by /u/TheHandsomeHodor [link] [comments]

AOE 2 HD - Noob Player Posted: 17 Apr 2020 08:05 AM PDT Hi there, I am new to AOE and I was hoping if there is any new player like me who is willing to have a 2v2 vs the AI. I do not have AOE DE as my computer cannot support that big a game but I have AOE HD. Let me know if anyone is interested Cheers submitted by /u/boldfacebutton7 [link] [comments]

New to the game, is this build order good to start? Posted: 17 Apr 2020 01:39 AM PDT Hey guys I bought the game a week ago and I already love it. To start I watched many tutorials videos and learned how to do a fast castle+knight rush. After sort of mastering the timings for everything, I hopped into a 1v1 game with a friend and learned why this build order isn't the best in 1v1 open maps, I felt really exposed. I started looking a for a new build order and found this one which seems pretty strong in all aspects. What do you guys think? I know build orders aren't everything and that maybe I should focus on other aspects of the game as well but I want to have one really strong build order before doing that. Also, does the meta changes constantly? Will tutorial videos from 2-3 years ago still hold value? Is there a big difference between the HD version and DE? Thanks! submitted by /u/posijab [link] [comments]

Music keeps playing but can't click on anything after clicking "create lobby" Posted: 17 Apr 2020 07:10 AM PDT My friend downloaded the definitive edition and tried joining our online lobbies but was unable to. When he then tried to create his own lobby nothing happened. ​ Any ideas on how to solve this? submitted by /u/nandeyanen1 [link] [comments]

Hard AI difficult as hell. Posted: 17 Apr 2020 06:33 AM PDT Hello guys. I started playing aoe few days ago and I got a 25 hours so far. Before jumping into online matches I wanted to learn the game by playing some games against bots. I did all the 'Art of War' challegenes on silver, one of them even on gold (i was proud as fuck boys). Still, I have the horrible problem with winning against Hard AI on 1v1 match. After smashing few standards without challenge I went into moderate which actually I can win 1v2 or 1v3 since I just outscale the enemy. After it I thought it's good time to start playing "hard" games and I'm just crushed every single game. Even if I can keep up with the score in dark age, or something like that, soon I'm just flooded with enemy units with no chance to comeback. I have done "some" progress and I started building early army as well but with 0 results. If I make army of 10 skirmishers and 10 man-at-arms - all I can afford while also having resources to making it to castle age, he just crush me in economy by outscaling me and crush me military by doing twice as much soldiers, even if I counter him properly by scouting (skirmishers when i see his archery ranges or smth) he still outnumber me and smash my nuts. Even if I make army which can make a kind of resistance, i can stop bot once and then he'll come with more in few minutes while I'm trying to rebuild army, in effect I got again 10-20 soldiers and he comes with 35. ​ I appreciate any help. submitted by /u/kicayy [link] [comments]
