Re: Rough stagecoach - villie conversion

It depends on the map. It's between something like between 2.7 and 3.5 vills/TP.

Re: Age of Empires III: Definitive Edition — Small Update 18493

It's QOL change, which is a good thing imo. You want to make the game harder in interesting ways, like quicker game, or units with spells, not just stuffs you have to spam 1000 times to get used to it. In think sc2 managed to do that very well, they made every possible QOL change, but the game is st...

Re: 3v3 Tournament Hosted by RøyaL Clan

2 pr25 is a lot tbh. A pr40 can probably defeat 2 pr20, maybe pr22 but not higher. Also it depends on their strategy, if they both go for an all in rush you probably can't hold.

Re: The level of play is much higher now than in 2005-2010

Ye it was 1.25f/s (it got buffed on DE), so it's not even 2 unupgraded vills. 2.5 vill food trickle would be really good in some situations.

Re: The level of play is much higher now than in 2005-2010

No, they've just learnt the game. If you learn math stuffs at school instead of figuring it out yourself, does it mean that you're a bot ? The bot is the person who applies a math method they have learnt without understanding the concept, which in the UK at least you can do more or less up to end o...

Re: The level of play is much higher now than in 2005-2010

it’s just ‘easier’ to learn the most efficient builds. As soon as the game moves beyond that point the skill level returns to what it’s always been. It's more than just build orders, it's also general game understanding, plans, unit compositions and timings. It's easier to learn and improve at the ...

It's super ez to respond to this question because we have a solid indicator, called piroshiki :P . I don't think his level have change during those 15 years. At his peak he was pr 35, consistently lt co, what is his ranked right now? Pr isn't a solid indicator however. We all know that pr has dropp...

Re: The level of play is much higher now than in 2005-2010

I think main difference is that the current Build Orders and Strategies are superior than the old ones ,it's much more refined and perfect ,ppl who came back from those days will be simply outclassed in these 2 factors even though their micro etc is on the same level.The micro ,treasures ,scouting ...

Re: The level of play is much higher now than in 2005-2010

"The level of play is much higher now than in 2005-2010" Samwise12 disagreed with this notion a while ago. Even on RE (before DE), most pr 25 or so players mostly used hotkeys, control groups, microed okay-ish (more than a-move), mostly used decent builds. In contrast, "back in the d...

Re: The level of play is much higher now than in 2005-2010

They're better strategically for sure, because strategy evolves with time. As a result, the current players know more about the game than the old pro. As for mechanics, there are 2-3 exceptions (H2O, grunt, Sam), but overall today's players are much better mechanically.

Re: 3v3 Tournament Hosted by RøyaL Clan

Yes, 3 pr40 would of course stomp 3 pr25. At pr25, people mismacro and don't get constant unit batch, and they don't really micro.

Yup, that's 2 different game. I'm top 15 in team right now, and I almost nevet get out from top 25-30 since the launch of DE. I don't think it makes a lot of sense to talk about "top X" in team, because it depends too much on activity. I've played with you, and you're a good player, but t...

Re: 3v3 Tournament Hosted by RøyaL Clan

1v1s 2v2s and 3v3s are very different games. Being good in 1v1 doesn't guarantee being good in 3v3, and vice versa. I've consistently lost to pr 20s in 1v1, but have also consistently beaten pr 40s in 3v3s. That being said, it is funny how the weaker captains keep winning their games. The balance s...
