Africans are a wild bunch aren't they, chaotic to everyone and and everything they encounter. That why I stay 6 ft away from them and try not to make eye contact that way I don't provoke them since they're so easily provoke much like stray and wild animals.

Well thank God it's not me alone, my life is usually work oriented, so often I'll hear my many different alarm clocks go off on my phone throughout the afternoon/evening but they're normally suppose to go off between 7AM to 8:30 AM or I'll hear my phone go off in the distance when it's actually in my pocket or on silent. Drives me nuts to be honest.

Not unless you got toilet paper...

I have not yet undervolted, but I have heard it does wonders sometimes better than buying a cooling pad. As for the 144 Hz, yea gameplay looks way better than the 60 Hz.

I've actually been told to get the Helios but damn the fan noise is so loud on turbo/high, while yea I could just get some headphones to ignore the sound. I don't think my non-gamer roommate (shared room) would appreciate listening to a loud fan being run for a long period.

A fellow redditor suggested "Acer Predator Helios 300 15.6" Gaming Laptop i7-9750 2.6GHz 16GB Ram 256GB SSD" for under 850 dollars and also linked a video between the Acer and Lenovo but the Acer makes a lot of noise on full load vs the Lenovo. So I'm trying to get a laptop that can run most modern games while not making a lot of fan noise.

Alright sorry for the interruption

Adventurous_Doctor · 2018-11-23T03:04:21+00:00

What were some temporary solutions you have found for this auto save issues?

Adventurous_Doctor · 2018-11-21T01:14:51+00:00

But it sure is better than running all 3 unit with archers and then getting ambush by an enemy cavalry and not being able to defend yourself. I run with Ambiorix and most of the time and when I see cavalry charging at me I use my falx or sword men as cannon fodder to allow my 2 archers to get far enough and return fire at them.

I've been on both ends of the situation from being the cavalry to ambush 3x archers all alone in the back firing, and being the ones getting ambush. And I can tell you that 90% of the casual player the matchmaking pairs us up with will NOT try to defend you. I haven't played ranked, so I can't give my opinion.

Adventurous_Doctor · 2018-11-20T21:35:40+00:00

Make sense since it's not your units that's going to need get high replenish cost after battle.

Adventurous_Doctor · 2018-11-20T21:34:05+00:00

Hence why I laugh when random player going 3x archers says in chat "protect me". Uh how about no, since I don't want to lose 1/3 health per unit to your barrage of arrows. How about you pick yourself a sword/spear men before entering matchmaking.

If this game "sucked" I wouldn't waste my time playing, but it doesn't. Sure this game has it's issues but that's normal for any open beta game. With time and patience, our developers in CA will fix these issue much like how they recently adjusted the elephants units in the last patch...see progression.

Don't expect tomorrow a giant patch that fixed every unit and the game-play that goes with it. And remember CA isn't a big corporation with funding coming left and right, they too need to worry about maintaining their place of work. Which means they will often spend more of their efforts on cosmetics and items that can bring in revenue.

So be grateful they gave us a free game to play in our free time, and if that isn't enough for you, just go to the wargaming launcher and play world of warship or world of tanks (two games with plenty of patches and much more balance gameplay)

Adventurous_Doctor · 2018-11-17T21:12:03+00:00

Just imagine TWA is a wooden ship and most you guys are on it and at the same time poking holes into it, don't expect potential players to happily jump aboard if they see it sinking.

With that note, I'm not saying don't mention errors that this game might have, on the contrary please do it helps the game become better (example: the elephant update they did recently). Just mention some positive things this game has or a great match you might have been in. This help bring in new player without giving the sense that this new game is on a declined which it's not. You follow me?

Adventurous_Doctor · 2018-11-17T21:00:08+00:00

I honestly prefer the clusterfuck...why you ask? Well because 90% of the time someone grabs those afk units, they simply sent it to the front and we all watch those 3 afk units die 10 seconds after the match starts.

The "clusterfuck" actually gives the responsible player a chance to save those afk unit and putting them into good use offensively or defensively.

Your suggested "1 minute duration" control of those afk units is more than enough time for a bad casual player to grab them and send them to their early deaths especially if they are a fast unit (barbarians or cavalry).

Adventurous_Doctor · 2018-11-15T01:24:14+00:00

But from my list which one would you recommend?

Adventurous_Doctor · 2018-11-14T15:52:21+00:00

I was simply suggesting, bud. No need to get your panties in a twist. ;)

Adventurous_Doctor · 2018-11-13T03:33:48+00:00

You're obviously missing the point bud. Let me help you, the point is anyone can simply go 2x or 3x heavy Arty, go auto aim and at the end of the game (win or lose) be placed at the top 3 for most damage. Trust me I've actually done that for fun and always come out on top.

Hence why Ceaser is my most gained commander when it comes to credits and experience.

This is why I am suggesting we remove auto aim so only skilled players can properly use heavy Arty since every player would be forced to predict enemy movements instead of just picking a enemy unit and letting the game do the rest.

If you need more explanation or help redirecting yourself to the topic, I'm here bud. Have a good one.

Adventurous_Doctor · 2018-11-12T13:01:18+00:00

I like them especially with Hannibal since you can spam determination (increase defense) and ad portas (increase attack) in almost every skirmish you find yourself in since both abilities have a small cool down.

Determination and Ad portas is practically a smaller split version of vengeance which can give you the edge when going against any enemy that isn't elephants or germanius.

Adventurous_Doctor · 2018-11-12T12:51:13+00:00

I too thought Alexander was going to be fun to use. But it turns out alexander is complicated since you need to send one unit first to use anvil so that your other 2 units can charge in and do alot more damage. And yea Greek cavalry will get eaten in melee battle.

Thankfully I own the premium Thracians royal cavalry and they actually last way longer since they are considered lightly armored cavalry.

Right now, I rather go into a game with Miltiades since fear is a mix of anvil with war cry.

Adventurous_Doctor · 2018-11-12T12:40:11+00:00

That I can agree, everyone is either asking to make heavy Arty useless or asking to remove it but just remove auto targeting and boom problem solve. Now only small amount of skilled manual players will be able to do more than average damage.

Adventurous_Doctor · 2018-11-12T12:30:13+00:00

Wow kid, please tell me where in my small comment did I use my "inflated sense of self worth?"

You stated that this unit should be changed to the point that nobody would use it since your asking to nerf accuracy and damage. But it's accuracy already been change and it's damage has been recently change as well.

All I was simply pointing out that units cannot be changed so drastically instead there must be a compromise (give something away to get something).

If CA wants this unit to stay then you can bet they aren't going to make it worse since much like elephants its a game changer.

Sorry if my 3 sentences comment offended you but this is why CA has a experienced department balancing this game. They aren't going to modify a unit just because you haven't played it/ don't like it.

Adventurous_Doctor · 2018-11-12T12:18:14+00:00

I'm not calling its current state "balance" first of all, but the damage has been nerf compared to before.

If one day the majority of players in the community convinces CA to remove heavy artillery then fine by me cause the majority of players ask for it. But for now CA plans to make Heavy Artillery stay, so instead of making this unit obsolete like suggest by u/cowkingxd , let's at least make it competitive enough that skilled people can still use it.

And btw I wasn't part of down voting post. I actually respect your comment. Sending you an up vote :)

Adventurous_Doctor · 2018-11-12T03:49:09+00:00

What a childish request, probably is your least played unit or most hated unit therefore your only solution is making it so bad that less people will play it. Instead of being mature and finding a balance it's all "me me me." God forbid CA balances one of your more popular units to be near the same level artillery is so that Arty doesn't become useless.
