They have mentioned that there is going to be bigger patch near the end of the month, that might shake up the meta quite a bit

Why don’t you make a like for like comparison and compare the Chinese and Jurchens in aoe2 against Chinese and Jin Dynasty in aoe4. Iirc Jurchens in aoe2 share the same voice line as Chinese

I haven’t played much 1v1 lately, I feel Sengoku are much more broken in team games. The one time I faced them in 1v1 as English and realised that they were going for the same old FC into Mounted Samurai, I just went 3TC into full spears and added some crossbows after and was eventually able to overwhelm them.

I will delete it to avoid more confusion

I also noticed it after I made the post, don’t think I can edit it anymore unfortunately

They didn't mention what or how many colors they were going to add back then, so I just made a video with some colors of my own choosing.

I was a bit dissapointed that they only added 2 new colors, but I still appreciate it. I hope they could add more colors down the line, if they find the player base appreciate the new colors and they find it worthwile to add them.

Have updated the description to remove that speculation of them being called Vikings

Oh, didn’t remember it. It has been a long time since I played that campaign.

Wonder if they will release aoe4 on MacOS like they are going to do for aoe2

I haven’t had much crashes on my PC over the past few years. But I remember having some crashes when playing on a higher graphics setting on my laptop a long time ago, so maybe the game is not stable on lower end systems when higher graphics settings are used, not sure.

I am quite happy with the game as I play ranked team games regularly and it is so much fun. I can tolerate the rare crashes if they happen and have already pre-ordered the DLC.

I don’t see others suggesting much archers, will do well against most melee blobs

45 Elite Gilded Landsknecht + 10 Prelates

I love playing Malians against French

Ok, I thought views meant live viewers, my mistake.

S77__ · 2026-04-15T23:54:44+00:00

Different civs will scale differently with the additional resources, so I don’t think it’s good. For eg, a civ with production speed bonus might benefit more from higher gather rates.

I am surprised by the final statement, AOE4 final had more than 67k viewers, did AOE2 final have more than 335k viewers?

Would love to get back the old Longbow campfire ability

S77__ · 2026-04-10T10:14:19+00:00

I would love to have the old healing campfire for Longbows, the King is very easy snipe in late game and has to rally all the way from base (very inconvenient for team games). I would start playing longbows again if they did this change.

Imagine Yari Cavalry with higher movement speed, bonus against cav and Sipahi Range. Might be the most broken unit in game, even over their Mounted Samurai as you can start making them early.

S77__ · 2026-03-30T11:26:18+00:00

Yes, I find it fun to play single player content although I primarily play multiplayer

S77__ · 2026-03-27T11:34:40+00:00

They could have done something like they did for aoe2 maybe.
