Re: Cav Boxes Need Fixed: An Exploit That Turned Into A Feature

That should also be "fixed". Again not that it's really exploitable but just due to it looking stupid.

Re: feedback on de suggestions

1. Healing is now both a flat amount and % based, auto upgrades when aging, and now works at a greatly reduced rate in combat. Healer classes such as priests, medicine men, and surgeons no longer have a melee attack. Instead when grouped with an army they will stay at the back of the formation and ...

Its for the best. Anyone can check to see how they implemented this?

Are "infantry boxes" also affected?

Re: Cav Boxes Need Fixed: An Exploit That Turned Into A Feature

Pretty easy to stop.

Looks stupid from a game design stand point. DE would be best off reworking the formations and "fixing" this silly looking mechanic.

The game would probably benefit from its removal in long run.

Re: just get rid of walls...

Comparing AOE2 walls to AOE3???

Does AOM competitive scene have a wall problem?

I know for a fact they had different costs for segments and pillars. That would be the cleanest solution imo.

Seems fine. Klamath being a clone is the only total disappointing one.

I guess they are different after you research the 25% tech but still disappointing to see base stat clone units.

Re: Bug Fixes for the ESOC Patch

I personally think it was intentional anyway. Agra also does ranged and not siege damage And yeah there surely are better ways to buff the fort, if we even want to Eh, Agra was a copy and paste job of the Euro fort.

Re: Bug Fixes for the ESOC Patch

Worth noting things like this. It's an oddity as it's hard to say if it was done intentionally or not by ES.

Wether it's worth changing is really up to the current patch team. I don't have much of an opinion on wether it's changed or not.

232. FortFrontier (Euro Fort) only does "Ranged" damage despite having a cannon attack. All other buildings with a land cannon attack perform "Siege" damage. (Debatable Change. Would make shipment more viable. Balance Implications) Lol... can't believe I never noticed this. Guess...

Re: EP9: PORTUGUESE

Hmm, is it rounding up in game then? Should test it and see if the game is reading that second digit.

I'm guessing he data mined the guide. I plan on going through each proto entry an add building hp to the bottom. That way mistakes like that won't happen.

Why is that?
