    What exactly is the point of giving me onagers as a reward or at the start of a campaign scenario if the AI just flawlessly dodges every single shot I take?

    Posted: 20 Apr 2021 03:30 AM PDT

    This applies to almost every campaign mission. Currently playing barbarossa 4 and the game joyfully grants me access to 5 pristine onagers. Naturally, I try to make use of these units to take out the enemy's beefy cav and archers only to discover it was all in vain. Literally every single shot I take is dodged and an immediate counter attack ensues.

    I've tried this scenario a handful of times and at this point I simply delete the onagers, since they're just there to take up pop.

    This is an issue in skirmish as well. Say I want to practice a strat that involves attacking with onagers. Nope. I'll be playing versus an opponent that micros every individual unit to perfection, dodging every shot. Every resource spent on these units might as well be thrown into the bin.

    I made a browser extension that plays taunts from twitch chat

    Posted: 20 Apr 2021 07:38 AM PDT

    Hey guys, I recently made a browser extension which will take any message on a Age of livestream, then will play the corresponding taunt on your web browser. There's a volume slider, and some configurable options to make sure it doesn't get too annoying. It's completely free, open source, and is on the firefox and chrome webstores, so I hope this isn't considered as advertising. Please give it a try if this sounds like something your interested in, if there's any issues than post a github ticket, or just general features you'd like to see.

    This link will take you to the github page which has the download links,

    https://github.com/blockheads/AOETwitchSounds#download-link

    Again let me know what you think!

    The numbers, Mason, what do they mean?

    AoE2 vs AoE3?

    Posted: 20 Apr 2021 07:23 AM PDT

    I want to pick up one of these games on steam but can't decide. From what I can gather AoE2 has a much bigger following and was much more well recieved & that stands true to this day from what I can tell. Why do so many people like AoE2 over 3? Thanks guys.

    I understand this answer can be long but cliff notes would be totally fine.

    Game crashes in late game. Is it just me?

    Posted: 20 Apr 2021 08:16 AM PDT

    The game has never crashed before, but in the last couple of days, it crashed 3 times. And every time it happened, it happened right after I cleaned up a bunch of army, the moment I knew I was going to win. It's just really frustrating.

    Please tell me I'm not the only unfortunate bastard.

    Anybody dealing with crashes in match making games as of late?

    Posted: 20 Apr 2021 08:09 AM PDT

    A few times recently, my game (or my buddy's game, or both) will crash mid game with no error or anything. Extra sucks that it seems to only happen riiiiight at the perfect moment when everyone is getting imperial and its about to get real. I have also noticed the game getting extremely stuttery and my actions getting delayed from time to time, though not necessarily correlated with the crashes.
    I removed all of my mods, and I am running on a suitably beefy computer (i7 9700K , GTX 1080, game is installed on an m.2 SSD). No other games have this issue, and I didn't have this problem until recently.

    Any stability tips? Anyone else dealing with this?

    Castles get >4 times as strong when you garrison Hand Cannoneers, wasn't aware of that. Looks cool.

    does anyone else schedule things with their friends over text in the most annoying way possible?

    Bug

    Posted: 20 Apr 2021 08:26 AM PDT

    Does anyone remember the Simpsons RPG scenario from the Voobly days? If so, do you think the community would be interested in a South Park RPG for DE?

    Posted: 20 Apr 2021 12:42 AM PDT

    First, I absolutely love playing competitive multiplayer but sometimes I want to chill and play a custom scenario, but nobody seems to play scenarios on DE. Is there a reason for this?

    But anyway, Simpsons RPG was extremely popular and was my favorite scenario. If I were to build a South Park RPG for DE, do you think anyone would even play it? Is it worth my effort?

    Creating a new unit crashes the Scenario Editor

    Posted: 20 Apr 2021 04:27 AM PDT

    I was going to use Advanced Genie Editor 3 to test some units and create new ones, but whenever I create a new unit (or even copy an existing one) the Scenario Editor crashes while opening. What's wrong here?
    Thanks.

    Some new civs are coming in the next DLC

    Posted: 19 Apr 2021 10:46 AM PDT

    At the Fan preview they said "Campaigns and more" stuff coming in the next DLC. They didn't specifically mention that new civs are coming.

    A developer mentioned in a podcast that new civs will be available in the expansion. https://youtu.be/XHTHsUY4MXo?t=1977

    Use Capture Age Engine In-Game

    Posted: 20 Apr 2021 07:39 AM PDT

    Is it possible to use the Capture Age AoE2 engine to play the game? Would be cool to use alternate engines.

    Guys, do you think one of the new campaigns is going to be about this?

    Posted: 20 Apr 2021 03:35 AM PDT

    Third Mongol invasion of Poland - Wikipedia

    I´m making the prediction that both the new factions are going to be about the Poles and the Bohemians and this is going to be the Polish campaign (with the Voivod as the UU): Lezhev II the Black. It would be a great way to represent this faction AND would fit the campaign theme, since Lezhev was a duke and not a king. What do you think?

    Should I play this game or aoe3 becuase aoe3 looks a bit better but aoe2 seems to have a more active reddit

    Posted: 20 Apr 2021 07:08 AM PDT

    I guess my question is which of these games has a bigger and more active community in 2021. Also should I be playing the def version of the games

    Civ Concept - Chimu

    Posted: 20 Apr 2021 12:29 AM PDT

    The Chimu spanned Peru and Ecuador for centuries, until they were absorbed into the Inca Empire. They were known for their architecture and craftsmanship, so this would reflect on their structural defenses. Here, we have solid defense, with average offensive capabilities.

    Infantry and Defensive Civilization

    - University, Guard Tower, and Murder Holes available in Feudal Age.

    - Buildings receive +1/+2 building armor in Castle/Imperial.

    - Units receive no damage from lower elevation during attacks.

    - Eagle Warriors 25% cheaper.

    UT:

    Andes Warrior - Ranged Spearman with bonus vs. cavalry. (They fling spears like a skirmisher, but they don't have the bonus against archers, nor have a minimum range. Their attack rate is the same as generic spearmen. Their range is inferior, about the same range as Throwing Axemen, and the Elites have +1 range. To balance for the range, they have less HP than spearmen).

    UU:

    Castle Age: Stone Masons- Receive 1000 stone.

    Imperial Age: Leadership - Eagle Warriors regenerate.

    Team Bonus: Repairers work 50% faster.

    Unique Building: Pukara - Food deposit site that can also train Andes Warriors. Available in Castle Age onwards. It costs stone to build.

    Absent:

    - All cavalry and gunpowder units

    - Blast Furnace

    - Ring Archer Armor

    - Faith

    - Heated Shot

    - Siege Onager

    - More to be updated, please suggest which units/techs should be disabled

    Feedback is welcome!
