| KOTD4 Recap and thanks for your support Posted: 19 Dec 2021 02:48 AM PST Hello guys this is MembTV, i still have my old main nickname from the zone times, i just wanted to tell you that i made a recap of my experience on aoezone and i will copy paste here, so there we go!!! " Hello everyone i just wanted to say that King of the Desert 4 has been the most amazing experience i have done on my "own", i say on my own because it was many people doing a great job as you all can imagine. I really believe that been a huge event that we all needed, me as a age of empires content creator but mostly as i age of empires 2 LOVER, i think with the budget we had, we just got the best experience possible. There has been so many epic moments and really crazy series, i believe the gameplay has been very very high, and even with those people thinking that aoe4 made some others not get their best gameplay i just dont think that is truth, is just that those people that been prepare ALOT it paid off. Hope the tournament was as great experience as it was for me and my team, we worked so hard and tried bring the most competitive and professional tournament BUT with the most fun possible as well. WE brought as much people as possible to cocast and participate so thanks so much to all of them, if you check in liquipedia you guys can see how many people we involved, and we basically involved as much as we could bring and they wanted. Only small bad moment was during the semifinal that sadly we got technical problems since the company i contract lost their 2 providers, which is unlikely to happen but oh boy, german internet ay ay ay but i think i manage to recover and in final day i controlled everything on my own, with some help of course, from the crazy guys that help me chrazini, rorarimbo and my mods. Being said that i want to also be transparent completly and tell you what this KOTD4 in numbers has been and here we go. Sponsors: Microsoft - 50k Total prize pool will be 77.500 As you can imagine we have got alot expenses since i tried to make a professional event, and that cost ALOT, some people didn´t even ask me money but i will also pay them for their job. So expenses are going to production team, administration, graphics, overlays, 3 video promos and a long etc etc. Sponsors are very happy with the event and they think it has been a great event. Hope everyone has enjoyed and will try to keep bringing more AoE2 events as soon as possible. Memb. " I want specifically to add for reddit users, that i dont read forums so much, but during this event im aware that you guys been really supportive towards the tournament and to my person, which is always great to see, because not gonna lie back in the days this forum wasn´t so nice towards me, but after so much hard work and people knowing me a little bit more seems things has changed, thanks for being so cool with me but for me the most important is that you guys has enjoyed ALOT with King of the Desert 4. Thanks again, and hope we will enjoy future projects in the future. [link] [comments] | ||

| Why are people so salty after getting lamed on Arabia? Posted: 19 Dec 2021 01:46 PM PST Why don't people who do this not pick Arena or Island or hideout where that is (nearly) impossible? Is Arabia not all about the aggression? Pro's also did it a lot in KOTD4. Btw I fail half my lames because I'm mid level and not a pro. And also a lot of people don't get salty. I feel that 33% gets salty. [link] [comments] | ||

| Posted: 19 Dec 2021 03:32 PM PST I wanted to create a Sassanians Civ, but looking into it the Persians covered practically all of past Iranian Empires dating back to Parthia to Safavids. Although their Civ and Civ bonus reflect very little of the Past Empires I wanted to take the approach of designing the Persians around a Cavalry unit the Aswarans (Arabian Knights). Aswarans were known as Heavy Cav Archers or Cataphracts, and there use dates back to the Achaemenid Empire (550bc) and were known as the backbone of the Sassanian Empire. Their Gunpowder use comes form the Safavids which is known as 1 of the 4 gunpowder Empires. PERSIANS Cavalry Civ •Start with +50 food & wood •Town Centres & Docks have 2x hp & work rate increase by 5% per age (Starts in Feudal) These are the original TB of the Persians and I think they reflect the early Powers of the Achaemenid/Parthian Empires. •Aswarans replaces Knight-Line A new version of the Knight, more below. •Parthian Tactics effects all Cavalry Parthian tactics was made famous by Parthian Light Cavalry, a hit and run tactic known as Parthian Shot. (Note* ~ They lose both Chain & Plate Boarding armour in this design). •Heavy Cav Archer Upgrade is Free Persians lack Bracer, but should still be a top tier Cav Archer Civ. This is meant to be an incentive to use them and know you get a good power spike in Imp instead of dying off. If free is OP then Id apply a 70-80% discount to the upgrade. UNIQUE UNITS Aswarans (60food, 75gold) An Heavily Armoured Anti gunpowder/Infantry Knight with similar stats to knights & Cavalier. Normal/Elite HP 100/140 Attack 10/13 Armour 3/3 Pierce 3/4 Attack Speed 1.8 both Speed 1.35 both Bonuses (Gunpowder +4/+5) Notable they have +3/+3p - amour, but with only access to scale barding amour. They have Identical stats to the generic Knight. However they are cheaper to ungraded needing only 1 armour upgrade which makes them a good fast Knight on Arabia maps and they would become known as the Arabian Knight. As they could be fully armours-upon hitting CA. Elite Upgrade cost (665food, 700gold) This is the 2nd power spike of the Aswaran UU having a In-between upgrade of Cavilier/Paladin. For a Fast Paladin style play similar to Burgundians. Parthian Tactic effects the Aswaran an gives it its final armour upgrade while also adding +2 attack vs pikeman. Not as strong as a Paladin so late game if they are looking for power Cavalry they might need to call upon the War Elephants. War Elephant (200food, 95gold) I've Changed the War Elephant to a more Siege type Cavalry Unit. The reason for these changes are now the Persians late game Cav is weaker at raiding and Persians Lack Siege Engineers. And War Elephants don't really see much use. Changes Cost +30food, +10gold Cost 2 population 17 & 21 base attack (up from 15 & 20) 450 & 600hp (same) Double bonus damage to buildings. With Higher DPS to buildings they can fill the role of the Ram. They aren't as Pop efficient any more so massing death balls has an extra cost in late game. But 5-10 should be like 3-5 Rams as a guideline. Parthian Tactic also effects the War Elephant which adds +2 damage vs Pikeman & the Armour. I would add +1/amour in the non elite version and +1/p armour to the Elite to make up for the lack of armour upgrades. UNIQUE TECHS •Mahouts (Increase elephant speed by 30%) •Karmandan (Replaces archer gold cost with wood) Switching these just makes sense as Mahouts is Cheaper and makes Elephants maybe viable in Castle age. TEAM BONUS Heavy Cavalry +2attack vs archers By Heavy Cavalry I mean Knights & Aswarans SUMMARY The Light Cavalry and Camel receive nerfs losing +1/+1p- amour. But gain +4 vs Pikeman. Also I would remove Hussar as maybe Hussar spam would be too strong. I would give them the Steppe Lancer, as it would have lower armour and gives the Persians the status as having a Full Stable again. Lancer would benefit from Parthian Tactics Also. Overall the Cavalry I think gets a buff with fast knights & a Cavaliers/Cataphract Hybrid. They would perform against Halbs similar to Lith 4relic Paladins but with -20hp. It's benefits tho is cheaper Upgrades. Maybe War Elephants would be useful and fill a role of Siege for the Persians, an area I fill they lack. Cav Archer is a viable option with a good power spike coming in Early Imp. However they miss Bracer & Also Only have Light Cav as meat shields. Maybe a few War Elephants as meat shields is a potential. Optional - Take away Heavy Scorpions, but give access to Siege Onager as with no Hussar and weaker Skirms mass Arbs could be a major weakness. They still have Elephants & Elite Aswaran tho. Overall my goals was to recreate the Knight line to make it unique to other Civs & also give the War Elephant more roles. Instead of adding a new Civ, add some additional interesting play styles to a some what boring Civ. [link] [comments] | ||
| What are the main differences in aoe 2 and 4? Is it worth purchasing aoe4? Posted: 19 Dec 2021 09:12 AM PST I have played aoe 1 and 2. The long awaited release of aoe 4 got me thinking. What are the main differences in aoe 4 compared to the prior editions and is it worth purchasing? [link] [comments] | ||
| Converting AoC .mgx format to AoE2HD or AoE2DE .aoe2record format Posted: 19 Dec 2021 03:02 PM PST Hello fellas, as I wrote in the title, I wonder if is there any way to convert .mgx format to .aoe2record format. Thus I can watch our old matches in AoE2DE graphics quality. [link] [comments] | ||

| Is dropping a castle vs AI cheesy? Posted: 19 Dec 2021 10:47 AM PST I tried my luck against 'hardest' AI after I beat the 'hard' AI last week for the first time. I tried an MAA into Archers build that I practiced yesterday. It didn't work perfectly, but it delayed them quite a bit, so I advanced to Castle much faster (even though I was behind a bit in score). There was a choke point on a hill between their base and mine, in the middle of the map, and I placed a castle there. Subsequently, they started running their army into my castle for the rest of the game. I defended the castle with some military, placed a second castle within range, and the game was basically over. Was that a cheesy strat? I think I would have placed that castle there against a human opponent as well (it denied their forward gold too, which was nice), but as I improved through difficulty levels I realized that the AI just doesn't seem to deal well with castles. As a secondary question, what are the differences between hardest and extreme AI? The previous steps were straightforward, each AI makes more military and more vills than before. How much more difficult is extreme vs hardest? [link] [comments] | ||

| Posted: 19 Dec 2021 09:56 AM PST I have been playing the game on and off for more than a decade but only ever the campains. I have recently stumbled upon the Art of war tutorials and some T90 and SotL videos, so I gave it a try. I want to ask if the build orders (dark age build, fast castle, etc) are considered the current "meta" or are they not exactly what the pros do. [link] [comments] | ||

| AoE2 learning resources for young kids? Posted: 19 Dec 2021 08:12 AM PST Similar to this post but for young kids (~7 years): Are there easy training resources for AoE2 that a child can follow? The in-game William Wallace campaign is good but it is not too detailed. A YouTube video is probably going to be difficult to learn from. It would be great if there's a scenario or mod that can teach. Are there any? What would you recommend? [link] [comments] | ||
| What are some must-watch AoE2DE matches? Posted: 18 Dec 2021 04:15 PM PST Hi, I haven't followed this game for too much time, first started watching around Hidden Cup 3 (what a banger!) and thus have missed quite a bit of history. Could anyone point me to some games or matches which are considered "must-watch", similarly to ROX vs SKT 2016 Worlds in LoL, Astralis vs VP 2017 Major in CS:go, Federer vs Nadal 2008 Wimbledon etc.? Ones I would personally put forward are:
Does anyone have any further recommendations? [link] [comments] |
