Little by little, this game is approaching a release-ready state!

The only BO that has worked for me is to get immediate TP, then send 3v -> fast age -> 700w -> forward WH -> big button jag knights -> 6 coyo and hit hard in early age 2. But it depends a lot on the matchup.

@macacoalbino no, it was a joke. They didn't actually publish that.

"We've addressed a critical issue where the game would delete a user's personal files. Now, upon launching, the user's computer will catch fire and possibly explode. Stay tuned for further updates, and happy exploring!"

[mention]u348[/mention] (and other ESOC mods) we need to get the word out quickly to the whole community to stop playing and uninstall. Maybe a notice on the main page? This is nuts. The game is literally destroying people's hard drives. I am uninstalling DE until I know for sure that the problem is...

wololooooo

[mention]u54[/mention] I've experimented with building TP and plaza with the wood crates and fast aging at 12/10 using the 3 vils card. Then the WP is actually dancing (or whatever they do in the plaza now—shopping?) for XP rather than just weakly attacking guardians. Then chop for house, send 700w ...

Honestly, give aztec and inca a (slight/medium) boost and wait and see what happens. Game seems pretty balanced. As an Aztec player, I totally agree. The Jag Knight buff, along with buffs to the Age 2 Coyote card and Age 3 Jag card, push them in the right direction. Their age 2 timing gets even str...

Wow...I am, with all sincerity, very impressed. If this patch is as good as it sounds, I will adjust my Steam review.

Really, really happy with how quickly they've responded to the community.

Most of these issues can probably be fixed over time!! But the problem now is that these issues have hurt the game reputation quite a bit which means that a lot of people wont even try it!! [mention]u8352[/mention] yeah, I really want to be patient and optimistic, too. If you look at my posts on la...

Sadly I wrote a pretty harsh review as well. I requested a refund as well, but so far was denied because I had over 2 hours of game play. At over ten hours logged in I played 6 games. I thought that was a good attempt to give it chances to redeem itself and find a reason to keep playing, Much of th...

Ye, same. It's aoe 3 so I'm going to keep playing some games, but if with another game I'd just return it and ask for a refund. The sad part is that everybody told them that the game was not ready during the betas, and how to fix some issues, but they didn't fix the issues. I'd be genuinely interes...

Just submitted this review of 3DE on Steam: I have been playing Age of Empires games for over 20 years, and AOE3 is my favorite entry in the series. I love how unique the civs are, and how the shipment/deck-building feature adds infinite strategic depth. It's a truly great game, but it has always su...

At least I think so. Or can you access the mod manager without signing into Xbox? I was able to access the mod library in-game without signing in to Xbox. When I restarted the game, the Xbox sign-in window appeared alongside Steam, which was confusing. I just closed the window and restarted the gam...

EAGLEMUT wrote: Yeah, I believe that is required to access any mod, and some other features too. The account is free though.

Wait, so you need to have a Steam login AND an Xbox account for the mod to work at all?

Idk they lose to artillery.

I played sweden last night as India and tried this exact strategy and got ROFLstomped. Couldn't keep up with his eco + endless mercs + artillery + mass caroleans.

I decreased the resolution and put graphic settings on medium, and also adjusted zoom to normal. It runs fine. It's definitely not as sharp as the original, which is disappointing. I don't understand why they optimized the game around the highest settings, when very few ppl are playing it that way.

I also had a frustrating first experience, but I think that was largely due to all the changes. Once I figured out the hotkeys and UI and a couple of other things, I pretty quickly adjusted. I'm hopeful the small bugs and balance issues can be worked out in a patch. I hear you about the matchmaking ...

@Hazza54321 yeah, same problem. I just uninstalled the pre-download and started over. Took the same amount of time.

The game works on my i5-8400 with shared UHD graphics 630, but I have to play it on the lowest settings and it looks awful, much worse than the original AOE3. Can't be ****ed buying a new PC though. I'm playing on Bootcamp on a 2020 Macbook Pro and I'm running into the same issue. I might just pull...

@Diarouga I thought you wanted fixed crates?

Seems like a bad translation. Do we have any native Japanese speakers on ESOC?

[mention]u2379[/mention] subscribed to your channel last night. Great job! Keep the videos coming. You are the content creator that this community needs. Small comment: this video was great, but I think "game-changing" would have been more accurate than "game-breaking". https://w...

It's a small thing, but that map is a cool design, and I appreciate them clarifying when it's actually out across the world.

This would work well if the concerns raised are universally accepted, but you're inevitably gonna have people who disagree with certain points, and some that disagree with others. Posting all this in one thread would create a clusterfuck of a thread, leaving the devs undecided and confused. At the ...
