Re: Change needed for African units (IMO)

I agree. Ethiopia is already unique enough, don't have to get fancier and messing around with units too much. Devs got a bit carried away tbh yes that's exactly his, the best example are gascenya, they are unique but at the same time a very classic skirm it's perfect, they could have made for examp...

Re: Why does the pistolero suck?

there's been some old Lakota RE times where lakota would send 10 pistoleros to hold age II abus/jan. apart from that they are bad. they get picked up too easily, have a horrible firing animation and take a million pop space.

no desert warrior should cost 5 pop. they outclass every single outlaw unit in the game.

Re: Spice trade for Aztecs

they are the jack-of-all-trades nowadays, just like france. don't expect them to win you games bc of the MU (though age I dock is really good sometimes). on the other hand: if you win with them you know you did your job and that is satisfiying.^^

Re: Units stop walking

Probably the worst bug the game currently has Shift click is more annoying to me because it seems to only work when you are looking at the action. If you shift click and move the camera away the action often doesn't happen. So it's either a house, a trading post or a military building that is not b...

Re: Haudenosaunee voices

the least they could've done would have been letting the voice actor make 30ish samples, dunno how that got past the devs.

Re: Predicting the next CIV's house

why not? place it in base and after queuing your vills creep it forward. thats just a super agressive mini blockhouse. even if it just works like a chinese village with say less hp or so. could be a good anti raiding technique tooo. seems pretty fun if it only has like 1 or 2 speed.

Re: Predicting the next CIV's house

idk give that civ regular houses and water houses so they cant be destroyed by land units. if its just a gimmick and they do fine on land maps too, why not?

Re: If you need any more proof that port + peru needs to be nerfed

maybe we are, maybe both of us simply have a different perception. from a viewers perspective, i feel like that games are won differently today and the focus has shifted. i (and probably a lot of retired players) am surprised what mistakes dont get punished anymore bc theres other ways to win the ga...

Re: If you need any more proof that port + peru needs to be nerfed

It's partly due to the toxic streamers that we have nowadays. Try to find a stream where the streamer scouts their opponent's strategy/base. You won't find one and this is teaching bad habits to the viewers. I'm not sure if you are joking, but this is actually what I've observed as well. Even in to...

Re: my rant/whine about team games, stream sniping and more

Stream sniping is just going to happen when you stream and have viewers, so you just have to decide if it’s worth it. Fortunately there are several very easy solutions to this, the easiest and most effective one being clicking the button that says “end stream”. If a friend wants to watch you play s...

on how QS chooses maps now

i've discussed that in twitch chat a few times but on DE it seems that QS simply chooses any map completely at random. this creates the possibility to play the same map twice in a row or even smth like 5x yukon (or any other map) while only playing 10 games that day. i don't play DE rn but as a view...
