Posted: 15 May 2021 06:13 PM PDT ...And I love it, and I can definitely see the appeal. I mean on one side it just feels less stressful, because all the pressure isn't on you individually like it is in 1v1. And definitely not as stressful as deathmatch or even 1v1 empire wars. If you do screw up (like an occasional idle vil) someone is watching out for you from time to time when they are looking for markets, or scouting relics, scouting the enemy, etc. If you lose, you can shrug it off as a team mistake. Granted it does not feel great if you are the first to crumble and resign, and it sucks a bit more if a teammate resigns at the first instance of a raid. But ultimately it's not all you, even if the elo drops collectively with a loss. But if you win, it's amazing. Even if you aren't the strongest or best on the team, it's still great. To know that collectively the whole team is working with you, and you working with them, all anonymous of each other. Idk, I'm getting sappy, but it's great. Overall it's a nice change of pace. Thanks to all of you within the community. [link] [comments] | ||

(Silly ?) game mechanics idea for tournaments Posted: 16 May 2021 03:59 AM PDT Don't laugh me out please :) I'm mostly doing this for fun. This is probably a stupid idea but I imagined it to be fun ... How would it be if one could mix and match properties of multiple civs. Say one could ask for indian stable + malay archery range + english barracks + aztec seige + magyar castle. Here's how it would go- for each tournament, the organizers price all buildings and bonuses and you could mix and match as much as you like for the amount of money you have. (you and your opponent start with same amount). This would captain's mode itself a 10 minute minigame 11. I'm sure this would be a lot of work btw so never gonna happen but I'm curious what costs and combinations you guys can come up with. [link] [comments] | ||

Why is everyone against picking a CIV? Posted: 15 May 2021 05:40 PM PDT I always assumed that everyone picks the civ they want but apparently they go random civ. Isn't picking civ like picking hero in League of Legends? Why would you pick random civ that you don't know build orders for? [link] [comments] | ||

Posted: 15 May 2021 03:35 PM PDT So Ive noticed that at least lately several players from the VL clan have been using an all visible cheat. Confirmed this by watchin several recs. I think this cheat should be adressed. They go straight to and lame finding boar and sheep straight away and pocket even happend to find their ally sheep on the way to laming the opponent. Kinda ruins the game when they are able to cheat this way. https://aoe2.net/#profile-268076 Feel free to watch his last Arabia team game if you want proof of the cheat. [link] [comments] | ||
Unique Civ music should play the whole game Posted: 16 May 2021 07:42 AM PDT Title says it all. That first 30 seconds playing a game especially as Burgundians has the most awesome sound…. Then it goes away and never comes back! Let's keep it the whole game! [link] [comments] | ||
Posted: 16 May 2021 07:32 AM PDT Finding I'm kicked from a number of online sessions as the few ranked games I played 1v1 at the start didn't go so well. When trying to play normal custom games I find I get kicked because I show as a 'noob' whereas people who haven't played any ranked games so have no elo seem to never get kicked. Is there a way of hiding or resetting I don't want to show I'm better than I am but I just wanna play some games! [link] [comments] | ||

Where are all the custom games? Posted: 16 May 2021 07:02 AM PDT I am a regular player of custom games such as CBA etc but at the moment I can't seem to find any of them in the lobby browser. Like the last week or so I don't think I've seen a single game being hosted. If I look for RM games instead it's not much better I still only see 1 or maybe 2 max at a time. I am almost certain something is wrong my end but I cannot figure out what. Anybody got an idea? [link] [comments] | ||
Can you think of a civ bonus that *sounds* over powered but in practise would not be? Posted: 16 May 2021 06:08 AM PDT I was just reading some comments re the Burgundians before they were released; a majority of comments were lamenting the creation of a civiliation with such strong sounding bonuses (eco techs one age earlier, cavalier in castle age and their unique techs), and yet just a few months later these had to be buffed. So in the spirit of this, could you name a civ bonus that seems very strong on paper but actually in practise wouldnt make much of a difference? My vote would be for; Military buildings can research upgrades during unit creation [link] [comments] | ||

The removal of DM from the ranked queue makes sense. Posted: 15 May 2021 01:58 PM PDT Now, the way that the change had been communicated was poor, however, the decision is logical. People like to make fun of the unlabelled chart; which is fair, unlabelled charts can be used to spread misinformation. However, in this case, the charts aren't misleading. If you check https://aoe2.net/#aoe2de-matches-ongoing, there's genuinely morethan 50 times or so as many ranked RM matches as ranked DM matches. That is in spite of all the publicity that DM will have recently gotten, with the announcement, and DMWC (and the associated "surge of new players" that people have been talking about). I'd imagine it would be considerably less outside of these circumstances. That's a problem. Outside of prime time (when Europe and the US are awake, weekends ideally), this means that you only have about 1 DM game every 4 minutes or so, which means that you're just playing against whoever is available; that defeats the entire point of having a ranked system in the first place. From the perspective of the developer; the ranked DM queue is a dead feature. Removing DM from the ranked queue doesn't mean that you can't play DM anymore. Dedicated DM players can still make their own lobbies; and consolidating all the DM players into unranked will probably be an improvement to that. The ranked queue is prime real estate, in a sense; the main thing it provides, outside of match making, is visibility to new players. But clearly, it's not attracting a lot of players, and will do so even less so if matchmaking is comparably slower/worse to RM. So, the developers can't reliably provide quick balanced matches with the DM ranked queue, and it's failing in attracting new members. That's the 2 primary purposes that the ranked queue has here. Why would they keep it? It makes sense to at least try out and see, if Empire Wars has any more success in that spot. Maybe until the next patch; if it isn't any more successful, they can change it back. [link] [comments] | ||
Playing on my IMac sorry asking again Posted: 16 May 2021 04:34 AM PDT Do you guys still stick a cd in and play like old times? Can you download the game and buy it online or?... I don't really wana spend 2/300£ on a laptop just for the game. I'd really just rather find a way to play with my IMac even if it's 75% as good as playing on a pc [link] [comments] |
