AOE4 Trailer Released

[duckzilla]

AoE3 already has hero units with the various versions of "explorers". As long as it stays that way or similar, I don't mind hero units.

The hero units in AoE 4 will also be able to do "emotes"

[gibson]

I would hope so. Being able to grind to unlock cosmetic items is crucial for the longevity of a game in 2019.

Go to my emotes thread and explain them to me, Zoomer

This all sounds really good imo.

Also that video jim linkedis reassuring. This game will be great, I feel it.

if you zoom in at 0.47 you can see actual gameplay and how the UI looks, it looks as if it is similar to aoe2 meaning there are no formations like in aoe3

This looks great actually, not cartoony or whatever people say at all

at 1:11 you get a nice glimpse at the minimap and the scale of maps which seem quite a bit larger than what we are used to from aoe3

Huh? Aoe2 also has formations? Possibly more advanced than aoe3's formations.

in aoe 3 when you group musks together they automatically go in a grouped formation / line unlike in aoe2 where units are spread out

I'm confused as to what you're talking about. Units in AoE2 do group up, just like in AoE3.

Honestly? This is all really exciting. I want the game to be released.

I would be interested in knowing what ESOC plans to do with AOE4. We would have to attract all the top level players here somehow.

If you ever tried aeo 2 you will know that aeo 2 has more formations than aeo 3

[Shahpur]

I really liked the patrol formation and the one for spreading units in groups of 2.

I'm so fucking bored of medieval games.
How many medieval games are they going to poop out before everyone gets sick of them lol.

Everyone is playing it so safe today. Marketing and sales deciding what "consumers" want. Bleh. Fuck this predictable shit.

There's no more thirst for exploration, new worlds, new horizons. Same old hackneyed themes, remakes of remakes of same old tested recipes. Brainless content for blank-minded consumers. The nth Terminator instalment, Batman, Batman Returns, Batman Forever, Batman & Robin, Batman Begins, The Dark Knight (hello it's Batman again), The Dark Knight Rises, Batman v Superman, Suicide Squad, Justice League, Joker, Batman with Fries, Batman with Mozzarella, Batman on toast, Batman Microwaved, Batman Sliced in Half Flying Over My House.

Hurrr, raise your swords for emperor Sibelius. Build two pikemen and siege that piece of wall. Fire that trebuchet. My saracens are coming to raid your farms.

What a shit game AOE4 will be. It's like a big kick in the balls. Can't believe that's what we've been waiting for lol

I'm sure i'm not the only one hoping for an AOE3 improvement and was not really hyped for an AOE2 type of AOE. I guess way more people will be happy than upset anyways since AOE2 is way more popular. Oh well I guess AOE3 DE will be my final AOE resting place.

[n0el]

Just because of the timeline?

[fightinfrenchman]

@Dolan Some of the things you listed aren't real products

Why are you dismissing a game you've never played and have no knowledge about aside from what was in a 60 second trailer? Maybe wait for some actual gameplay before you say it's a shit game, yeah?

Dude, even Ensemble got sick of churning out the same old stuff, but these guys from Microsoft haven't. They can't get bored of cashcows.
They just have no vision, just greedy management. Fuck'em.

Things like this make me hate capitalism. Capitalism is great at producing things, but terrible at creating things. Nothing gets created unless it has "market potential". No wonder Hollywood lives off neverending instalments. And Microsoft off neverending AOE2 rehashes. They think consumers are stupid and they're right. Consumers are going to swallow the nth remake of that dreamy story, this time in 4K.

This game looks like everything AOE 2 should have been but technology wasnt there yet. I dont mind if they mix ancient and medieval, it looks like most everything i ever asked for in a Age game. Perfect styles graphics and units and the walls look amazing. Cant want to be playing aoe 4...
