Re: RIP thebritish

1. I did not just join the forum. I helped building it.
2. Complaining about too strict moderation and right after random-referencing longbows, sushi or whatsoever is exactly why stricter moderation is absolutely necessary in this kindergarden.

Okay, everyone now said goodbye and Dr. Legend may feel free to come back when he feels like. =) I support locking this thread now. Anything else will hardly be constructive, but just pointless sushitalk and flame attempts.

Re: Revolt: Episode 9 - Moderation (with Divine Fire!)

The episode was quite an entertaining listen. Can't wait for the next episode (consider me a fan) - Have you considered adding it to a real podcast feed like for iOS App Store and other platforms? I'd love to listen to these on my long ways to and from work. Sadly I can't download them from soundclo...

Re: See ya

The mods are doing a good job. This forum has been dominated way too long by toxic trolls who don't give a duck about the things they say. Mistakes from users and mods are only human. Frequent mistakes though, especially of the same kind, are either intended or an indicator of incapability and ignor...

@Durokan notification That's from the days when we set up the forum.

Re: Better background layout?

If you look closely you can see that these are all pre-release graphics. They're also renderings, so not the authentic look of the game. As I said, you want something "more historical" and others want a realistic, competitive scene from the game. All these scenes neither fulfill these crit...

All I intended to feature with this scene are graphics that are characteristic for AoE3. Before you evilch...

Re: RTS-Santuary?

The point is not everybody knows RTSSanct and it's no longer an appealing place to go. I particularly doubt newer players know about the treasures and the thing is, they should. If we're being brutally honest, the records have become the only reason to go there. What you call cannibalism is what I c...

Re: RTS-Santuary?

Thanks for answer, ZutaZuta. How about we transfer it to ESOC right away and offer people to download them in respectable quantities? Having them available right at the most popular AoE3 place would certainly be beneficial for the community. Community growth and durability can also be linked to the ...

lol, this thread. Why are you making these weird experiments? Just look into the game files. Here's the code for Russians that proves Halberdiers, Musks and Strelets (in game files they have different base stats) were intentionally nerfed: <Effect type ='Data' amount ='0.75' subtype ='Cost' resource...

Re: why are some players not good anymore?

Just curious btw: Do you guys think these 'legendary' best players of the early days of AoE3 (iamgrunt, StarSky, Parfait, Phoenix, ..) understood and mastered the game itself better than the best players nowadays? Have the old winning strats of grunt & others become obsolete/average nowadays or ...

Re: EP 1.2: A balance update

Just from scanning this discussion thread one gets the impression perspectives can still be rather contrary on the same matter, which makes me wonder whether people either have become so good at this game over the years that nothing's really left but discussing cosmetical changes or if the game is s...

Re: RTS-Santuary?

Tbh, I've wondered the same what's gonna be the fate of RTSSanct. Zuta is an admin there, has he said anything about it somewhere? I don't know anything, but would really like to know. I agree on saving the useful resources btw, these things are essential to keep a scene alive.

Re: Archery

You can also just add: <perfectaccuracy>1</perfectaccuracy> This overwrites both accuracy and accuracyreductionfactor. The instantballistics tag is technically not the same as accuracy, but just means to inflict damage instantly in case of an accurate shot. The game determines before the animation w...

Re: Hotkeys file

I'm very sure there are more hotkey mods. Maybe not super popular, but afaic top players have been fiddling around with hotkey mods and special key binding sets (at least that should be common). Could anyone tell me which key bindings are popular and which hotkey mods would be most appreciated? :)
