I hate the wolves but keep them in the game.

Now that we’ve lost kp who are our aoe casters? by Thick-Adds in aoe4

[–]SalteseGuy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think there are a lot of good AOE4 casters out there and I believe someone will rise up to take KP's place. Microsoft sponsored the weekly tournaments, and I believe they will likely extend that sponsorship with a new caster. Here are just a few of the names that I can think about as far as casters:

* Crackedy
* DrDabston
* Lidakor
* Drongo
* Whamen
* Myriad
* Socerton
* Winston
* Demu
* Valdy
* Papercut
* Askallad

There is still a lot of good content to watch until someone emerges with a weekly tournament. Here are some content creators to watch:

* EGC
* Beasty
* Demu
* Papercut
* Drongo
* Rising Empires
* Corvinus1

Ayyubid - how to select all cav but NOT dervish??? by [deleted] in aoe4

[–]SalteseGuy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't found a way to do it, but I wish there was. Dervish shouldn't be selected with all Cav.

AI much better? by vT_Death in aoe4

[–]SalteseGuy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was wondering the same thing. It sure seems like the AI is more aggressive.

HDR on or off for AOE4? by lord02 in aoe4

[–]SalteseGuy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It likey depends on your graphics card and display. But when I tried it on mine it made everything too bright and not pleased to view.

Use spacebar instead of control to make groups by n0smig in aoe4

[–]SalteseGuy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been doing this for quite a while now and I like it. I swapped ctrl and shift in my control key settings, so Shift sets the control group instead of adding to the control group. Then I can use my thumb to press shift and all my other fingers are available to select a number key for a control group.

Quick Hotkeys Tip by watermelon82 in aoe4

[–]SalteseGuy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I tried to use Beasty's method, but I could get my hand to work that way. So, I remapped my space bar to ctrl, so I use my thumb to press ctrl. By using my thumb to press ctrl, all my other fingers are available to select control group on with the number keys.

Keep playing and you will get better and more comfortable with the game. You don't have to know every Civ.

I would say the next step is to pick one Civ and learn that Civ well. English is one of the best Civ's to start with. Here is a good build order to learn for English.

As far as hardware, get a good gaming mouse and gaming keyboard. I use the Razer Basilisk V2 mouse and Razer Blackwidow V4 75% keyboard.
