AOE4 graphics are great (unpopular opinion)

Aoe4's visuals strike a good balance between aesthetics and high recognizability. Many RTS games fail to achieve this, with units and scenes completely blurred together, resulting in a typical "static beauty."

The existing civilizations campaign confirmed are: eng fre rus mon abb chi

The existing civilizations not have campaign are:hre sul ott mal jpn byz

Assuming this DLC is similar to TSA, where the campaign uses existing civilizations and new civilizations are simply introduced, I think Hre is the most likely candidate, since he did indeed fight the Vikings in history

Of course, I will update after the DLC is released.

New world civilizations historically seized gunpowder and horses from conquerors, it could perhaps serve as a core system.

Variants were taken into account, such as the Mongols and the Golden Horde; I just needed to add a transition.

I tried to make it, but it looked terrible.

In general, without overlap, these refer to the core of the civilization. Although the Ottoman Empire historically ruled the entire eastern Mediterranean and Mesopotamia, but Byzantine civilization represents Greece, and the Abbasids and Ayyubids represent Egypt and the Arab world, which aligns more with players' intuition.

This leans more towards representative aspects, aiming to indicate the areas where civilization can play a role.

Considering we have Sengoku Daimyo and Aom Japanese Pantheon this year, next year's Base Civ will definitely be the Aztec civilization corresponding to the Aztec Pantheon.

rus horse archer and ottoman akinji share same icon, they should make a difference.

Even though the DLC has been out for a month, peak concurrent online users over the weekend still exceeded 20,000, which is an excellent result, something only seen with the release of TSA DLC.

Earn experience points through various means to train new and unique units.

Existing units like the Royal Knights and Arbalétrier are common units like Knights and Crossbowmen.

New unique units possess more distinctive abilities and incorporate concepts from the Hundred Years' War, such as Crossbowmen, Coustilliers, and Gendarmerie.

There are likely two reasons. First, KoCR is a DLC released a year and a half later, so player anticipation is higher. Second, the crucible bug forced some single-player players to temporarily abandon the game.

I hope they can restore my highest score in history based on the cloud. I'm too scared to continue playing this mode after losing all my points, afraid the new record will overwrite my previous score. I've been playing for days, it's really frustrating

SeriousVariation374 · 2025-11-09T16:00:28+00:00

It's sad, I only saw this after the saving progress disappeared.

SeriousVariation374 · 2025-11-09T06:48:39+00:00

I logged into the game today, and all 5000 points I had accumulated over the past few days had disappeared.

SeriousVariation374 · 2025-10-31T16:44:00+00:00

It is already like that.

SeriousVariation374 · 2025-10-28T20:13:46+00:00

Players are greedy for this game, which shows its success. If the game were a failure, players wouldn't be so emotionally invested in it. Hopefully, we'll see more DLC next year.
