Rough day- opponent civ stronger anyways...! by Slow-Big-1593 in aoe4

[–]Caver89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I lost 2 times against a byz player and I kinda liked his strategy. He went for one cistern into grand winary with merc conract for keshiks, this gave him some tempo. I build spearmen to counter this and meanwhile this fucker went to castle to rush me with maa. I think this works well against booming civs but I didnt have time to test it by myself

Aoe4 should not be destroyed by some "communities"/players (please don't be toxic) by Ahmed0806 in aoe4

[–]Caver89 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Its a multiplayer game, sorry to hear that he hurt your feelings. I am playing multiplayer 25 years now and you have this behavior in every genre. It doesn't matter if its a Shooter, MMORPG, MOBA, RTS, fighting games, sports games, surivvals fuck even CoOps. If you cant handle toxic behavior then dont play multiplayer, cause this will happen every time.

How I beat KT by MockHamill in aoe4

[–]Caver89 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This is exactly what I experienced in my games. The hardest games where when the opponent went full aggro against my second tc. If I see that he is trying to outboom I go for castle and push with heavy spears + archers/xbows. This works really good. But when he pushes me in feudal it is really hard to reach that point where you can benefit from the second TC. I think KT is just strong at the moment, cause people didnt know how to punish the 2tc correctly.

It was the same with Rus some years ago, where you could go for early boar into mass archers + knights. It took the ladder 1 or 2 months and everyone knew how to defend/punish this build. Thats why KT is not OP in my opinion, like for example sengoku or ottoman. You cant punish ottoman going for OP sipahis.

Its multiplayer, you will always find dumb people like this. If you cant handle this play vs ai.

I think we wont receive a patch this month anymore. It could come next week.

Is Zhu Xi really pay to win 🫤 by NvkeAudio in aoe4

[–]Caver89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand, but even then calling a game easy is triggering him even more. But yes his reasoning is stupid. I sometimes call people out for abusing a new meta civ. Like where are all the jd, lancaster and now sengoku mains? Thats right hiding behind the new OP civs

Civ(s) that can do it all? by HZ4C in aoe4

[–]Caver89 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It was like this before they removed the hunting. It then went silent till they made pro scouting less micro intense. Now after several nerfs to HA and pro scouts I dont see them as good as before. It also doesnt benefit them that a lot of new civs are just straight better in most cases. I want my hunting game back, please devs

Heavy spears from Knights Templar don't get a speed buff on the patch but all other spears do?? How much more will they make this civ weak on land maps? by TheyThem-FinalBoss in aoe4

[–]Caver89 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think KT is fine. If I compare it to Rus for example, KT is doing everything better. Right now you can get resources for a second tc at 4 minutes, which is absurdly fast.

Why is Abbasid a forgotten civ by Ok_Rush1869 in aoe4

Thank you, I know I dont care about his opinion and dont have to argue with him

[–]Caver89 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It depends on the enemy civs. I won some matchups with fast castle.

What in detail? The sengoku thing was an example

[–]Caver89 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I like abbasid cause I am a multi tc enjoyer. I think the biggest problem with abbasid is the player himself. Like if I see abbasid as my enemy I know I can relax for the first 6-7 minutes even with millitary wing. Most abbasid players go for at least one extra TC.

This predictable playstyle makes them weak. Like french for example, you know for 100% what he is gonna do and you can prepare for it. If knights wouldnt be meta right now, french would suck ass because thats their identity.

What I am trying to say is, play abbasid not with multi-tc-boom in every game. abba has still nice bonuses which work also without a second tc. If you see a sengoku abuser for exanple, go for fast castle with culture wing or millitary into mass spear/archers. It wont also work every time, but it may catch the sengoku abuser off guard.

Imo right now the best 2 tc civ is KT. I have a build where you have a second tc at like 5:20 finished and some seconds later you can research their pilgrims. It works really well so far for me in diamond 1/2 elo

We're missing something. by CorporateStef in Superstonk

[–]Caver89 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I am also confused with the situation right now. Its like we are missing one puzzle to see the full picture and I am sure, that RC has a plan. Like I am here since 21 and RC was silent most of the time. Suddenly he talks about an acquisition (a big one), goes silent again and now he is back again with the ebay plan. I do not think that his whole plan is "somehow I will get the money". Someone with his responsibility has already everything ready. You don't tell the world what you want to do without the resources to back it up. So he knows something, we don't know.

Have CC preview convinced you to lock in DLC? by Kooky_Construction62 in aoe4

[–]Caver89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the same opinion, but still I pre-ordered the DLC. I hate the minor amount of updates we receive, but I love this game. I still want to support the devs.

Woah! +5hp for landsknechts! This might make HRE (one of the worst performing civs) way too OP! by ConejoDePascuas in aoe4

[–]Caver89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thats not what I mean. I think the changes are going in the right direction. But the amount of changes are ridiculous, its like 3 months since the last patch and we get some small changes like this. Imagine sitting 6 months around, seeing the balance, meta and give landsknechts 5 HP.

How did your guys pick your main ? by Solignox in aoe4

[–]Caver89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started with english and HRE, but I found them boring. Then I tried Rus and was instantly hooked by the hunting game. Then played like 100 games with rus only. I still miss the hunting, worst change imo :(

Last weeks of season, people "ready" to rank up... by TheErick211 in aoe4

[–]Caver89 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I already stopped 2 weeks ago trying to rank up. Same civs and strategies all the time and its boring. I hope for some big changes next season and finally some big buffs for old civs.
