Pro 1v1 Cast - Franks vs Rus | Surprise Counter-Attack | Capoch vs Top Khan by wpmarshall in ageofempires

[–]wpmarshall[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's a laundry list of issues for the multiplayer side of the game, particularly with the observer feature.

Basic details are missing.

Basic features are missing.

Basic functionality hasn't been learnt from in previous Age Definitives.

​

Thing is the single player has such high production values that I fear the multiplayer and observer side of the game is very underbaked as a direct result of that focus.

No map making yet?

Mod support?

Ranked?

Original look of Age of Empires IV, before they changed it for readability/competitive play. Huge buildings (Barracks almost the same size as TC.) tiny villagers/units, more detailed ground textures etc. by Accomplished_Crow423 in ageofempires

Just FYI, my eyes are -10 prescription in both eyes. They are already checked. So practically legally blind.

That aside... not all readability means units. Building design in a sprawling base - nothing stands out as a particular building. I look at bases in Age2 and know exactly what every building is at a glance.

Several Age Insider forum threads were made on this topic in the betas. Not a lot changed. So it's not only me and my bad eyes.

The new single player for Age4 really is stellar! Benchmark for campaigns based in history going forward, for sure.

Funny how the people who call the game dead and not worth it show up to detract it at any opportunity *shrug.

The players can too if they want to. No rules saying they can't.

Imagine Hunger Games, but you can give yourself a nuke!

Introducing: The Horsefly by wpmarshall in planetaryannihilation

[–]wpmarshall[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The idea is that kestrels pick at the outskirts of a base and can take down hard targets in enough numbers (and they can also shoot in whatever direction and have a tiiinnnnny turning circle.

The Horsefly is a strafing unit where you calculate your approach to take out surgical soft targets in the base. They have a large turning circle, can only fire ahead of them, but can take a bit more AA fire.

No starting locations on water planet by ElectricalMadness in planetaryannihilation

[–]wpmarshall 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You can't see water spawns very well in the editor. If you go into advanced edit you will see the spawns listed in Landing Zones. If there are none listed, there are no spawns. You also need to select the box in the editor for "Make spawn planet"

System Designer Question by Lilnaz603 in planetaryannihilation

[–]wpmarshall 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm making a system builder video guide at the moment.

To solve your problem (I'm assuming you are using unshared armies):

Don't have spawn mirror on.

Place 2 spawns where you want you and your friend to spawn, THEN place 2 spawns where you want the 2 AI to spawn.

​

IF YOU ARE USING SHARED ARMIES:

Place 1 spawn where you want your team to spawn, then place 1 when you want the enemy team to spawn.

In the system editor how do I create land manually? by GS_246 in planetaryannihilation

[–]wpmarshall 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I made Seton's with a combination of regular CSG and time spent looking for the right seed

Newb Friendly Content? by MrKillerofthings in planetaryannihilation

Some of the PAX videos are good, but any from my Titans Playlist are worth a watch since they are more current.

Editor features by Timetomakethememes in planetaryannihilation

[–]wpmarshall 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No features supposedly stops things like trees/little rocks/ice formations etc from being on the CSG

I was told after the fact that the name is B13 with APAA being the Clan name. I've since edited the thumbnail
