They only made sci-fi and modern warfare RTSes until now.

Is there even a gaming company that has made historical rts games?

Wouldn't surprise me to be 90% based on aoc, outside of this website people dont want a aoe4, they want aoe2-2, or Aoc_2.

Why 1492?

The end of reconquista, the beginning of the colonisation of the New World, basically. I'm not entirely a specialist in this topic nor do I know each game event chronologically by heart, by the simplest source possible — the English Wikipedia — confirms.

It'd be appreciated if you shared your sources while presenting such news :smile:

Make sure to get active on the official sub-reddit of AoE4:

https://www.reddit.com/r/aoe4/

Of course, personally I encourage you to familiarise yourself with comments praising our game, setting the facts straight and fighting with stereotypes about AoE3. After that, you can leave a rating — up/down? It's up to you ;)

If Relic are making decisions based on community feedback then AoE4 is totally screwed.
Ensemble Studios were the best because they made the games they wanted to make that were unique. If they listen to those that keep moaning about never liking AoE3 we may as well write it off now.

The original DoW series is the best. Not keen on 2 or 3. 2 is just bad.

Yes, just as most people have said, DoW3 was considered a disaster, but we might have a chance to get away with AOE4 though - according to an interview, the game director for AOE4, Quinn Duffy, was not involved in DoW series.
Q: Have you worked on Dawn of War?
A: Quinn: No, I worked on Homeworld, Impossible Creatures, Company of Heroes 1, Space Marines and Company of Heroes 2.

The transcript of the full interview can be found here: https://forums.ageofempires.com/discuss ... -about-aoe

I hope the info helps cheer up the spirit in this thread. :flowers:

Spacemarine was a really good game. One of the best 3rd person I've played. Thats really because there are no 3rd person games out for PC, but still.

If the same guy that's directing aoe4 also worked on CoH and Homeworld there is hope I guess. I just hope that AoE4 isn't a game where you micro units in squads.
