    Pinned threads for major tournaments

    Posted: 05 Mar 2021 02:12 AM PST

    Keeping it short. Am I the only one who would like to see pinned threads for major tournaments here?

    E.g. from today to Sunday there is Hidden Cup 4 decider matches and I see no threads about it. Having a pinned thread for it would generate discussion.

    Help Wanted for CaptureAge Scientific Research <3

    Posted: 05 Mar 2021 05:08 AM PST

    I'm doing a little private side project that will still improve CaptureAge. (It's a scheme to use my private time to still work on CA.)

    For this I'm looking for people to watch a short video and fill out a questionnaire for about 10-15 minutes in total. The goal is to gather your opinion and experience. The results will influence the priorities for this project and help made decisions. The final outcome of this research should benefit all Age of Empires 2 viewers and casters directly or indirectly.

    New Podcast

    Posted: 05 Mar 2021 01:40 AM PST

    I've started a new podcast-type format for Age content. This is just the first one and I am hoping it can be something that grows in time to include guests etc. Have a look and let me know how you think it can be improved or anything you think should be included in the future. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hxVzXNImPiY

    Thy has Viper fallen in the rankings?

    Posted: 05 Mar 2021 01:52 AM PST

    Has he just not been active lately?

    Bonus question: Why do some players have multiple accounts? MBL has seemingly three accounts in top 10. I suspect he could have had 1st place if he had concentrated his efforts in just one.

    PS: I obviously mistyped "Why" in the title. Although it sounds somewhat medieval, so I'm not even mad.

    What is the best use for Burgundians' 'eco upgrades can be researched 1 age before' bonus?

    Posted: 05 Mar 2021 06:50 AM PST

    I have only ever used it for getting wood upgrades on the way to next ages, but I don't think it really provides that much value that way. But if I research say two man saw in feudal I feel like my castle time is delayed hugely. What is the most optimal way to use this bonus?

    PS I was really hoping that SOTL would do a video about this 11

    Civilization 1v1 Performance Statistics - Electric Boogaloo

    Posted: 04 Mar 2021 04:36 PM PST

    Since my previous thread on civilization performance statistics I have taken into account many of the different suggestions and comments that were provided and have now produced a more involved analysis of the topic using a significantly larger dataset. This analysis can be found here:

    https://gowerc.github.io/aoecps/outputs/report.html

    ​

    Full code can be found here:

    Performance test issues

    Posted: 05 Mar 2021 08:09 AM PST

    Hello guys, did any of you encounter an issue where the performance test won't even start and then crashes the game? I am curious because I can pass the test on my study laptop but it crashes on my desktop which has more horsepower so to speak.

    Smurfing

    Posted: 05 Mar 2021 07:46 AM PST

    Hey any veteran noobs have tips on how to avoid smurfs in unranked play? I got stomped in ranked so I've been in unranked "noob only" games but on occasion there is most definitely a smurf with double the score of everyone else in the game that stomps everyone. Any tips on how to spot these players before the game starts?

    First ranked game

    Posted: 04 Mar 2021 01:29 PM PST

    Just finished my first ranked game. To be honest, I was terrible in the battlefield, but my eco was best. I think I bored to my opponent to death.

    I managed to use almost all gold from the map and the battle was at the center. He was launching towards me skirms and archers non stop, but somewhat I was able to hold my position.

    It was fun but my heart was bumping all the time. I played random civ and got Aztecs and he got Mayans. I think if he had had cavalry, he would have destroyed me.

    What's your ELO and what's your APM?

    Posted: 04 Mar 2021 05:08 PM PST

    Yes, we all know that APM is not all and it's not even the perfect metric to measure playing speed, but it's what we all can easily determine. (If you don't know how, here is one option: https://www.desktopapm.com/ )

    I'd really like to have some numbers just thrown in here to get an idea of how much ELO and APM is connected and also how much APM fluctuates on a certain ELO-level and what the APM-levels are in general.

    I think the most important number is something like your "upper plateau", as in some phases you will play slower bc there's less to do and sometimes you just click a lot bc of microing. So what would be cool, if you can post:

    • ELO
    • Average APM
    • Highest consistent APM
    • Peak APM

    If we get enough data, I'll do a little vizualisation of it and post it! (Send your friends to contribute. :-) )

    Hi All,

    ​

    I was looking for an in game TC idle time tracker MOD but I was not able to find anything here. As I have some experience in development i was thinking to build it myself. Do you know where I can find the correct documentation to start building a MOD?

    Thanks
