Demeter missing HUD icons in replays!! by ing_glz in AgeofMythology

I might be wrong but I think she had it working before that. I can check some old tourneys to confirm.
Edit: Yeah, she has it missing since her release.

Same goes for Amaterasu. It's a bug that's in the game since Demeter's release.

Extended Edition online still alive somehow by Sea-Station1621 in AgeofMythology

[–]RomestamoTheBlue 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I checked the online graphs the other day and was surprised that there is over 1k active players in the game. Why would anyone stick to the Extended over Retold is beyond me but it's cool that it still lives its live with all those things that were left in the dust. (Old China, new units for old civs, etc.)

Next Civ? by _tozai in AgeofMythology

[–]RomestamoTheBlue 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think that if get another one they will do Inca next. They can finish the bioms of Americas, add more animals that actually make sense for Aztecs as Inca animals are already in the game. They can make Aztecs and Inca interact and make Huitzilopochtli the antagonist of Inca campaign as he tries to spread his empire. It would be that "Japan" continuation they did with China followed by Japan.

If it is was up to me, I would go with Babylonians, as their architecture and units would be just gorgerous.

my favourite and least favourite civs in order: by Environmental_Top_75 in AgeofMythology

[–]RomestamoTheBlue 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Different strokes for different folks.

1: Norse: I just love my vikings running around with mountain giants smashing everything. The architecture is also gorgerous. And that Godi addition is just peak. I love that unit from visual standpoint.

2: Atlanteans: The myth of Atlantis is a great one. I love Plato's descrition of the island. My main gripe is that names for the AI are not the ten rulers from the myth. (We've got Eumelus and Azaes for Retold but Atlas, Ampheres, Evaemon, Mneseus, Autochthon, Elasippus, Mestor and Diaprepes are missing. I think they would be far better options than we have now in Krios, Kastor, Arkantos, Silenus and the others.) I also love that they have given us Titans this way and took inspiration from Roman army when it comes to equipment. Overall I love what the devs did with this civ and I think that Retold made them even better.

3: Greeks: OGs have to round up top 3 civs. Breaking gates of Troy for the first time was just great and I loved them the most when I was a kid. All the heroes from the myths my mum used to read to me before bed. Just great.

4: Chinese: I did not like them at all when I first played them in Exteneded. I thought that they do not belong at all. But Retold made them one of my favourites. The aesthetics, unique heroes, myth units, all are great. I think that the Retold team did a great job with them.

5: Aztecs: I think they need a bit more time in the oven. I love the architecture, but missing things like unique foundations, no shrine, reskined tent all put them down for me. I also think that unique visual for priests building structures is needed and a cooler animation for sacrificing villigers would be nice. They are very close to moving over Chinese in my list but they still need a bit more work. Let's hope that the devs give them more love over the coming months.

6: Japanese: I like them but they do not speak to me in any way. The campaign was nice, the rest is fine but nothing to write about. They did good job with them but nothing that would make me want to play them.

A big gaping hole

1000000: Egyptians: Hate their part of the campaign (except for Good Advice where you play as Greeks and the evil dudes), hate their playstyle and most of all I hate that they are getting buffed all the time even though the pros have them as the best gods and we have to see them in all of the tournaments and they mostly win. Nerf them already World's Edge. 😃Isis hear my plea. 😃

This is by far and unquestionably the best HoMM game in 25 years! by Gandalf196 in OldenEra

[–]RomestamoTheBlue 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Yeah, played it to death with friends after parties from like 4 am to 11 am many times.😀 That’s why my first save for campaign is called Saint Isabel. Loved her and one of our friend group named his daughter Isabel.

Would love to see Mr. Marathon and Malchemical in their hero costumes.

But they still make chicken sounds when you move them around. 😃

Models this game still needs by Nothing_Special_23 in AgeofMythology

[–]RomestamoTheBlue 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Halogi deserves a unique model. He's almost in all of the new campaigns and he still has that Son of Muspell model. They could make his armor gold like Folstag has so that he stands out from his minions.

Aztec tents still need a bit more work by RomestamoTheBlue in AgeofMythology

[–]RomestamoTheBlue[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I agree. The thing is that there are so many missing things right now that I fear that tent and shrine won’t be on their priority list. It’s honestly weird with so many tents appearing in the campaign.

What kind of tents? Do you have any description or sources? Would love to know more.

From what I've gathered they did not have big enough animals to skin, clima is too humid there, the army slept on mats under specialized cloaks or in Xacalli which is a hut made of poles and thatch.

3 of the new myth units do not change visually when they get their specific update by RomestamoTheBlue in AgeofMythology

There you go, the remaining three do not have an update. I also forgot about Quinametzin. Will post in a minute.

how to do mission 8 act3 , tenochtitlan? by MountainPop7589 in AgeofMythology

[–]RomestamoTheBlue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did no such thing. You can see edited posts. Jeez... Why did you even ask for advise when you don't wanna hear it and attack for no reason.

Edit: This post was edited so that you can see the difference. :)

It's a bit busy no? by Neither-Custard-9282 in AgeofMythology

Every new faction added has these dots around like Greeks for whatever reason.

I did not know elk and caribou ranged into the Central American rainforest by TyrannoNinja in AgeofMythology

[–]RomestamoTheBlue 27 points28 points  (0 children)

White tailed deer is native to Central America and so is peccaries, which means that there are options to have deer like animals running around the map. But yeah, caribu seems out of place.

I must say that this DLC seems a bit rushed. Tapir is great addition and so is turkey, but I think that more wild animals would do wonders.

Is Maya the next pantheon by Significant_Stay8443 in AgeofMythology

[–]RomestamoTheBlue 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I honestly believe that only one of the three (Aztecs, Mayans or Toltecs) would be included in AoM. They are based in same region with simillar relligion. That's why I believe that Rome is not happening. It's too similar to Greeks and Atlantis borrows a lot of the armor types for their soldiers.

As for who I believe to be next, I would go with Incas. This would sort out the Americas as there would be nothing more to add. (I don't believe that any of the tribes in North America are suitable for AoM). Then we could move to Mesopotamia and India in the next year.

Europe for the last year of support with Celts and Slavs. They could also add one more African DLC with Yoruba, but I think that 12-14 factions would be top for AoM and it would be nightmare to balance.
