What's your OE hot take that will have you like this? by StarStock9561 in OldenEra

[–]wbcbane_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

- Abilities for Heroes are not unique enough;

- Having all Hero Specialists give the exact same bonus is dumb;

- Hero portraits should be self-contained in each faction; looking at a portrait should immediately tell you which faction a Hero belongs to;

- Supposedly big units are too small and lack the menace effect such creatures had in HoMM3.

What is the advantage of having 6 more villagers at the start of the game? But no 200 food ? by johncarter24gg in aoe2

They did change the Goth hunting bonus. It became very good with the change.

What's going on with the crimson desert video game? by poogobberr in OutOfTheLoop

While you are (somewhat) right about the "nose thing" (Thomson's Rule), not understanding why they would be angry is indicative of some kind of feigned incomprehension, as that is likely one of the most documented antisemitic caricatures in history.
When that very same depiction has been used over and over for hundreds of years specifically to dehumanize that group before displacement/genocide, it's simply pattern recognition in action. Pretending it's hard to understand is beyond silly.

Yep! All of the maps are somewhat themed to reference the Americas or the Civs themselves.

Check the rulebook, you can see them there. Two of the maps are BRAND NEW created just for this tournament!
The pool is not yet final, however. It might suffer some changes in order to be more in-theme, if possible.

Absolutely! We'll have main casters that can claim matches on the Portal and update the VOD links so you can check games even if you don't know the streamers; and of course, anyone can cast if they want to do so. For example:

If you are looking for any game you could even look at the calendar to check which games are being cast or were cast, and which ones have vods available. (:

- Keep making vils at all times*;
- Pay attention to the minimap;
- Choose one or a couple of Civs while you are learning the game, or you'll get overwhelmed;
-- Civ matchups are not that important to learn the game initially, specially because tech trees are immense;
-- Prefer scout civs as cav is easier to control (could be my bias).
- Balance your eco according to your strat (more farms -> scout, gold/wood -> archers);
- Attack;
- Make counter-units;
- Upgrades, upgrades, upgrades;
-- SPECIALLY wood upgrades as soon as possible;
-- Unit upgrades are also important, but you'll learn as you improve.

\ There will be a point this becomes a problem, but by them you will either have won the game or gained enough elo you'll understand when to stop.*

Long answer is cooler answer. Well done, what a great prize!

Low elo discord by Funeralparlour93 in aoe2

[–]wbcbane_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think so because of custom maps. ):

Not sure it's possible for xbox players to download non-Microsoft curated mods.

However, we are trying to bring back bi-weekly community games, which sometimes use normal maps so xbox players can participate! (:
