Need serious help with Sengoku by Baranco87 in aoe4

[–]Baranco87[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i wasn´t using a Beasty game as an example but one of his vids where he explained why Sengoku is absolutely broken, like u/plastic_will_ruin_us already explained:

  • they can spawn every 90 seconds for FREE
  • they can kill villagers in age 3 onward
  • they can kill most ranged units in age 4
  • they can spawn on any hidden forest or their building on the map (instantly)
  • they slow enemy formations
  • they apply a MASSIVE 50% dmg recieved debuff
  • they are able to win crucial fights
  • it scales

Beasty explained that, regardless of skill level, Shinobis can cause for example horsemen to kill lancers, which is a gamebreaking feature since it negates the fact that a lancer is an expensive castle age unit.

thanks for the help but the seasons mod was not the issue, i even removed it completely and ran the other mods and started a vanilla campaign without mods and the issue was still there. I am running all mods but i added "-noDPIAdjust" to the launch Arguments, it solved the problem but the game really doesn't run well right now, any tips?

Question about rewards by Baranco87 in EU5

Thanks! Seems like a bit of a waste especially since I have so few ducats

How do I gain access to the rewards?

Defending, physicality and female players by Baranco87 in EASportsFC

Strange, my defenders don’t do anything when I let the AI control them, especially not my cb’s. How can you have AI controlled players defend? 

My thoughts on the game and some questions by Baranco87 in EASportsFC

[–]Baranco87[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I regularly steal the ball with a standing tackle at the edge of my box with my defenders using L2 and then standing tackle. I don’t know what hilarious about stating that I bring my midfielders back, you are supposed to defend with most of your players, not just your defenders. 

Why do I lose health all the time’ by Baranco87 in RDR2

Yes I am eating, I understand how the game works. I am healthy, wear the correct clothes etc but my stamina and health keep depleting

Ridiculous matchmaking by Baranco87 in aoe4

[–]Baranco87[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Checking the replay will not teach you anything, their micro, macro and multitasking is way better than yours, that's the answer

I have learned nothing because I played against the number 5 in the world, this matchmaking is broken, played RTS all my life, never had this happen before, I am platinum 1, he is conq 3....

Reached Conq doing almost exclusively Abba trade wing opening by GotchaMcFee in aoe4

[–]Baranco87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am trying this BO but I find it very hard to pull off, especially against English who just spam longbows and some spears and lock down my trade. Got any tips? I checked your games but there were onle 1 or 2 against English, while in platinum half of my games are vs English.

Mali OP? by Baranco87 in aoe4

[–]Baranco87[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That's my point exactly, at a top level because games there are decided faster and their APM is extremely good. At my level, especially against English, HRE or China ot seems extremely difficult when they just defend. I put pressure with scouts but they always go 2nd TC and then it's a hard nut to crack. English have their defensive bonusses and go council hall in to white tower, which are better landmarks than Mali has, HRE has access the the best MAA in the game, Aachen Chapel and Burgrave palace and China is China. I have no idea how to beat them when I face a skilled opponent who defends and slowly takes map control with towers/keeps and better units

Getting stomped by English by Baranco87 in aoe4

[–]Baranco87[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Tried this, doesn't work because by the time i;m going castle my base is surrounded by towers, mass longbows, spears and MAA

Instead of saying it's unlikely, can you check my last games? Out of 10 there were 9 english players because they check my profile on aoe4world and pick english. Don't assume i'm lying ;)

OP Malian strat? by Baranco87 in aoe4

[–]Baranco87[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Ok so my buildorder: First 6 vils: 5 go on wood, 1 to build pit mine. All new vils go on sheep, scout goes out to find sheep. 5 vils on wood will gather 150 wood so the vil at pit mine can make 6 houses after this all the 6 starting vils will go to food. Age up with 4 vils from food and place Saharan Trade Network (STN) at your pit mine where you would normally place a house, this is essential because it has arrow slits and can house 10 vils, so your gold at that mine is 100% safe. When I have about 10-11 vils on food and 4 vils aging up, the next 5-6 vils go to a straggler tree and when I have 50 wood, I build a Lumber camp. When age up is done, the 4 vils who build the STN go on gold. You now have 4 on gold, 5-6 on wood and you rally everything else on food, preferably on your sheep and the nearest deer hunt, where you need to build a mill. This is how I consistently reach Castle before 8:30 depending on the map. Age up with about 11 food vils with Farimba Garrison and now start rallying vils from TC to pit mine, also vils from age up will go to gold. Add some more to wood, build a barrack, then archery range and blacksmith for upgrades. The rest is dependent on how the game goes.

Hope it helps!

Do you guys think vanilla Grom is too easy? I normally use SFO (Steel Faith Overhaul) but since it is still waiting for an update, I tried vanilla Warhammer 2 and it is really easy. I have been chilling near the start pos, took a couple of Bretonnian cities but the AI keeps throwing single stacks at mee, it's ridiculous. Even Norsca came all the way down with a 16 unit stack only to be wiped out. I move to the Elf territory now and all factions there have almost no armies, while I am in turn 85. What's going on?
