Original AOE3 better than DE?
Original AOE3 is better than DE. Since this is a clear fact and cannot be reasoned against by a rational human being, please do not post so as to argue. Only respond to the poll and state WHY you think original AOE3 is infinitely superior.
Death to gendarme-spammers.

Re: Original AOE3 better than DE?
EP was just better in everything but network.
I love DE because I can just login, go into QS and find a game, but every change from DE is a downgrade.

Re: Original AOE3 better than DE?
RE is worse in almost every regard. There are some things on ep which are better though.

Team games take >7 mins to get a game and when u do get one it's fucked by bugs DE is fucking dog shit for team games. Some poeple cant even play the game => damn dog shit game
Re: Original AOE3 better than DE?
Tbh getting a game seems to me to be a timezone problem, when the EU and US are awake I get a game in under 1 min, when they go to sleep it takes 4 min +rsy wrote:Team games take >7 mins to get a game and when u do get one it's fucked by bugs DE is fucking dog shit for team games.

Re: Original AOE3 better than DE?
I couldn't even join half the games in RE. Using VPNs and stuff would make my game lag like crazy, and I would be kicked every time. So DE is a clear cut win for me. Long wait times is only an issue of playerbase size. And it's already better than RE, where you host a game and wait for half an hour.

Re: Original AOE3 better than DE?
Do you not remember how shit team games were? You were either one of the top 10 guys and got to play with the big boys with Hazza etc or you had to wait for Jailed to Stream and play laggy 4v4s half the time, if you didn't want to do that you'd have to go on RE and play on 3v3 Deccan vs some guys who are 5-10 pr lower than you with a smurf needed to not get kicked. De has some shit things but getting games at least for the average player is 10x better on DE than EP or RE.rsy wrote:Team games take >7 mins to get a game and when u do get one it's fucked by bugs DE is fucking dog shit for team games.

Also some people can't play the game = some people are still running pentium 4s from 2001 doesn't mean the game is bad.

@Riotcoke or you'd get teamed with ollie9999 and he'd insist that his FF merc strat was OP
Re: Original AOE3 better than DE?
god the 3v3 RE Deccan meta. It was swings and roundabouts of rushes, complete stomps, some decent games or w8ing around for people to show up and argue about balancing PR.

Re: Original AOE3 better than DE?
I miss the days of regular AOE 3 and EP patch games. We had so much control then, it was good times. Amazing UI and dedicated fan base.
I tried to watch a TR stream at late night, took over 25 mins for him to get a game. He won in under 3 mins because the skill gap was so big. (german vs swede, swede lost) had seen similar start times on other streams as well.
You can actually lose your hard drive! insane~
100 other reasons why...
Not even sure what was actually improved upon except maybe unit pathing, and the choice to make some un-used cards more attractive such as adding yield, and infinite spahi card.

51% agreeing RE better than DE is a wakeup call. The rest 49% are irrational so should take their opinion with a grain of salt. I called it!
Fine line to something great is a strange change.

Re: Original AOE3 better than DE?
As someone that got into the game only last year, the qs on DE alone is worth it IMO. I find games in a couple of minutes, every time.
Back on RE, as Riotcoke said, finding games was an unnecessary hassle and getting kicked out of lobbies was as sure as Sunday. Also, EP for my rank, was surely out of the equation.
Do I face performance issues/crashes for my more than capable gaming laptop? Yes indeed, which is a very frustrating experience to say the least. But with the release of frequent patches, and a few workarounds, I feel pretty optimistic about the state of the game and continue to hope that all will be great again!

It depends you could argue EP maybe better.
But RE is definitely not

Re: Original AOE3 better than DE?
If you have a shite pc yes, if you have a recent pc with a decent gpu this isn't the case. The old game was terribly optimised I'd get around 100-150 fps on DE I get around 200 on max settings but most importantly it's far more smooth, the only problem with DE in terms of performance is the memory leak which again if you have a modern system with 16GB of ram and you restart your game after every match it's fine.Challenger_Marco wrote:Original AOE3 is better in performance than DE

Where is the option 'its better but way worse than it reasonably should have been'
Re: Original AOE3 better than DE?
So why players don't come back on original AOE if DE suck?
