    Home Unlabelled Age of Empires II Noob here. 10 months ago, I had posted about how I finally succeeded at beating the AI in Hard. Today, I finally beat the Extreme AI. I am exalted. I am particularly proud of myself as I played only a few games (may be 3-4) in Extreme to finally beat the AI. Felt like showing off to the community.

    AoE2 basic unit counter

    Posted: 01 Sep 2021 10:31 AM PDT

    How would you handle this situation?

    Posted: 02 Sep 2021 07:08 AM PDT

    A year and a half ago I started playing online with some friends. Before that, I only used to play against the AI and I was not very good at it, I could only handle moderate and sometimes hard. My friends were at about the same level as me, so the games were balanced and fun. Except, we had this one friend who was a veteran from the old Age of Empires 2 The Conquerors and he always destroyed me (or anyone at his path)

    So, about a year ago I started to train and get better. I watched guides, learnt build orders and started playing ranked, managing to achieve 1050 elo and to beat extreme AI (although sometimes if I don't execute my build order flawlessly, I lose)

    The last time I played against my veteran friend, I destroyed him easily in less than 15 minutes. Everyone in the group was very impressed and I was very happy about myself.

    BUT now I see sometimes they are playing and they don't invite me anymore. I talked about it with one of them and she told literally this: "I'm sorry, but the thing is you are too good for us, it is going to be unfair for the team that does not have you"

    I was a bit upset but I also understood, however it really sucks to be excluded for being too good. I don't even play on ranked anymore and I don't practice or anything, I have been playing campaigns and sometimes against AI because I'm afraid of improving even more but, to be honest, I really miss ranking.

    What would you do guys?

    Bridges in AoE2?

    Posted: 02 Sep 2021 12:52 AM PDT

    I was watching some documentaries on Napoleon and one of his battles, he got his engineers to make bridges to cross a bunch of small land masses on a river.

    The enemy army then started sending barges full of heavy debris to smash his bridges and block reinforcements from across the river.

    I thought it was pretty neat, imagine trying to cross the river on a bridge in aoe2 and someone comes in with a demo ship lmao

    Should walls create a fog of war?

    Posted: 01 Sep 2021 01:55 PM PDT

    In the game today, you are able to see a number of tiles "inside" an enemy wall when you have a unit beside it. What kind of impact on the game would there be if this vision was not granted?

    I come from a starcraft background and it would be similar to how starcraft handles ledges. You cannot see what is up on the ledges unless you have a unit up on the ledge, a flying unit, or an enemy unit/building fires. I think this would be super interesting for age to adopt for the walls in age. Considering defense is very meta right now, there would need to be other compensation elsewhere against the wall (more wall nerfs). Would there need to be a new unit that grants sight behind the wall?

    What are the meta openings for 3v3 games on Arabia/Runestones?

    Posted: 02 Sep 2021 08:25 AM PDT

    So we're 3 roughly 1100 1v1 (1800 TG) players and are having some debate about what should be considered meta for 3v3s (specifically semi open maps like new Arabia/ Runestones).

    We know that it has been standard for a long time for archers on the flanks and cavalry in the pocket but I haven't been able to find much high quality 3v3s to understand the specific openings.

    Is it preferable to open MaA to try and disrupt your opposite flank? Or do you end up too behind in archer numbers?

    Should the pocket go scouts or FC? (we've recently been preferring scouts). If scouts is this standard 20 pop or do you go up a bit later for better eco?

    Are there any other alterations to build orders that are useful in team games?

    Have people had success with some more 'off meta strategies'?
