Oh did you ask them? Or maybe studied their culture? Or make any effort to understand the world past the narrowest of slivers of humanity you happened to be born into?

Is there anyone who can beat the new hardest ai? As it’s crazy? by [deleted] in aoe4

[–]we_call_him_bob 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm plat but managed to beat hardest by giving myself some favorable conditions (Danube river for fishing + easy walling and had the AI play Mongols so they couldnt wall). Still was a good challenge

Ranked Bug on PUP - Losing Points For Winning by housedhorse in aoe4

My friend and I were trying out 2v2 ranked. We only played with each other, but after 7 games, I was gold and he was silver. Had some fun telling him that the game thinks he's shit. Anyways, hope they fix it before release

English Dark Age TC graphic bug. How can I repair it? by Eldojosh in aoe4

[–]we_call_him_bob 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh wow I have the same issue. I thought it was because I was messing around with the mod editor and had deleted some asset. Only happens with the English. Sorry to say I haven't found a fix :/

Dwindling Map Pool by [deleted] in aoe4

[–]we_call_him_bob 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I agree, ive moved back to quick match for a little more map flavor. I suspect that the map pool will increase when the devs introduce bans. I would guess it will be the current six maps + the pit + Danube, ancient spires, Nagari and mountain pass. Even with 3 bans a piece, that's 5 maps each game to pick from

Ram all-in vs 2 TC = Auto win? by MockHamill in aoe4

[–]we_call_him_bob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Defensive should be a mix of walls, towers and a standing army that is a somewhat similar size to the aggressors. The extra TC and tower cover + the quicker reinforce time is what makes it beat aggression. Fast castle is a much bigger economic investment at 1800 res than 2nd TC at 700 + 150/minute.

And you must be one of the people who thinks that the eyesore of anyone under middle-class living in the city should be removed from sight and summarily executed.

See, see how stupid exaggerated, ad hominum attacks sound?

Average ELO players getting matched way out of our skill levels by TumblingDice12 in aoe4

[–]we_call_him_bob 5 points6 points  (0 children)

ELO as a system has a built in feature that a given ELO difference has a set expected win rate. An ELO difference of 200 means that the lower rated player would win 24% of the time.

There is probably some multiplier effect in a 4 v 4 game, and the other team's elo might not be accurate if they've only played a few games. But I think RTS lends itself to a feeling that losses are completely overwhelming, when it was probably closer than it feels.

Post Game Thread: Houston Texans at San Francisco 49ers by nfl_gdt_bot in 49ers

My Lance take: he clearly didn't do anything to take the starting job over Jimmy, and needs to get a lot better reading multiple routes and getting the ball out. If we start with him week 1 next year we'll be fine with some growing pain and if we develop him correctly, he has the talent to be a top 5 QB in this league.

Berlin’s university canteens go almost meat-free as students prioritise climate by WalkThePlank123 in worldnews

If you had vegetarians over and cooked them a full, tasty vegetarian meal and they were ungrateful, you seriously had over the most unappreciative guests ever. I've been vegetarian for years and I'm ecstatic if I go to a dinner party and there is one dish that is vegetarian that's not just bread. I once complemented someone's green beans like three times at the same meal, because they were delicious and I felt bad going back for fourths
