    Janissaries should get their hats back

    Posted: 03 Dec 2020 02:47 AM PST

    For anyone who doesn't know, Janissaries typically wore similar iconic hats as a symbol of their loyalism. https://i.pinimg.com/originals/17/20/ea/1720ea281a7ba7f6b0a7345691c06834.jpg
    AoE2 was originally meant to feature them in these, but they removed them for a ridiculous reason of the testers thinking that the models resembled Ku Klux Klan members.

    Models with the hats still exist in the game even in DE, meaning they could be just easily swapped. https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/ageofempires/images/f/f0/Royal_janissary_aoe2de.png/revision/latest/scale-to-width-down/256?cb=20200410083533

    Any questionable argument the devs/testers once might had with the resemblances are completely irrelevant now anyway with the high quality DE models clearly being indistinguishable.

    I know many people don't like changes, but I think this was something anyone could get quickly used to, would look better ingame, more historically accurate, more in line with the game's original vision, and less disrespectful as the only reason the current ingame model exists is a ridiculous comparison to such a notorious organization.

    Scout vs scout, it matters.

    You can say that I am somewhat of an expert in this game.

    All sources of infinite resources?

    Posted: 03 Dec 2020 12:10 AM PST

    Each game, resources tend to be finite. Trees don't regrow, neither do gold or stone mines or animals to hunt, so the maps have certain limits to the amount of resources you can obtain during a game. But let's say it was an eternal game, and all the finite resources have already run out. What would you say are the few sources of theoretically infinite resources? I have a few in mind:

    1) Relics

    2) Trade

    3) Market (Assuming you can buy resources through relic gold)

    4) Malay Fish Traps

    5) Feitoria

    6) Keshik Attacks

    Did I miss any?

    Berbers Unique Techs

    Posted: 03 Dec 2020 08:30 AM PST

    Hey Guys,

    I enjoyed playing Berbers a lot lately, as I'm kind of a degenerate knight spammer. It's just so easy and satisfying to do 11

    Now I think I never actually researched one of their UTs! Mainly I play Berbers in two ways:
    1. spam knights and kill all as I said, works perfectly on my level (1050 1v1)
    2. go camel archers + camels/other auxiliary unit. (either as plan from the start or as a transition from knights)

    My question now would be if you could give me a little insight of when its correct/good it to research their UTs? Are they even worth it if you are not in a Post-Imp scenario with virtual infinite resources? They both seem very underwhelming on paper, even if they serve very different purposes.

    Thanks, we love this game :)

    How much time do you play per week and do you play single or multiplayer

    Posted: 03 Dec 2020 06:51 AM PST

    I'm interested how much time everyone here plays aoe in the average week, and whether that's skirmish mode, campaign, multiplayer ranked or unranked?

    Personally, I play maybe 3-5 hours per week, so not a lot lately. I've dabbed in ranked, but not being able to spend as much time I always feel rusty and settle for a more relaxing game or two vs the AI. I recently did some campaigns too.

    What's your game time per week and what mode do you play? Optionally post your ELO :)

    (AOE II: DE) How to disallow object ownership in the editor?

    Posted: 03 Dec 2020 05:02 AM PST

    I have a question. I made a map, consisting of walls that have no ownership (Gaia). The issue is that if a player aproaches a wall, it automatically assigns that wall to the player. How do I disallow that?

    Thanks.

    why isn't there a thriving custom scenario section in this game similar to what Warcraft or Starcraft had?

    Posted: 02 Dec 2020 10:56 PM PST

    All the tools are there. Is it due to a low player base?

    EDIT: Seeing a lot of WC3 mentions, but I actually meant WC2. Starcraft had a huge custom scenario lobby though. I remember more custom scenario rooms than actual normal rooms. There was a whole bunch of them and they even had their own lobby. I certainly think aoe2 DE is at least on starcraft's level

    How OP would a bonus that gives you two scouts be?

    Posted: 03 Dec 2020 06:00 AM PST

    To prevent an instant mini-scout rush, the second scout could have no attack, like a king
