Re: Age of Empires III: Definitive Edition – Update 13.12327
I'm suprised teepees were buffed to 12.5% but they did nothing about Great Hunter:
It's basically a 20% buff right now, but the issue is that Age 2 slots are saved for crucial cards. Right now, Furrier, an AGE 1 card feels much more attractive than Great Hunter.
FURRIER
Overall I enjoy this patch. I'm curious about how much Siege Dance was nerfed.

game is dogass. took me two seconds reading the patch notes before this game to realize it overbuffs africa/hausa
opponent didnt even play well, never put his tbs on free stagecoach, stacked 1kc in the final fight
if he waited 5 seconds to send berbers he'd receive equiv. 9.1 vills instead of 6.5 (at 5:45 min)

Didn't expect that they added a 200 wood start. Aggresive war hut start may be the meta.
What I don't like is that every patch they do a lot of change on teepees, FORCING us to spam that shit. Several Lakota units have been nerfed, and you have to build teepees to overcome them.

lol hausa could already do the TP strat but now they removed the 4v card. The new nat post mechanic is wacky and not a good idea anway.callentournies wrote: ↑24 Jun 2022, 01:24game is dogass. took me two seconds reading the patch notes before this game to realize it overbuffs africa/hausa

On one hand you have a point, on the other you can easily get a 20% eco boost by going Teepee + Hunting dogs from minute 1.

Kinda yeah, I mean you get a free TP so you age early and then you get to spam shipments. Basically they fucked the eco options and buffed the all in options, so the civ is gonna be more broken than before.

TPs are cheaper (100f 100w), don't require a builder (build by themselves), and trickle XP. By every metric it's buffed.Garja wrote: ↑24 Jun 2022, 02:46lol hausa could already do the TP strat but now they removed the 4v card.

Re: Age of Empires III: Definitive Edition – Update 13.12327
Every strat that includes nat posts is buffed, but hausa could already do that fairly efficiently with the travois+explorer card which is now useless. So now they still get the same amount of vills but no 4v card. Other civs can just send 5v+4v which is a more efficient boom than the berber card and take just enough nat posts they need.

Re: Age of Empires III: Definitive Edition – Update 13.12327
I'm not understanding. Now the strat requires 1 less card (2nd hero) and they're sending 9.1 equiv vills in berbers. How is that less efficient than sending 5v 4v? You get more vills sooner because TPs are cheaper and build by themselves.Garja wrote: ↑24 Jun 2022, 17:01Every strat that includes nat posts is buffed, but hausa could already do that fairly efficiently with the travois+explorer card which is now useless.

And nat xp trickles fast, we already know that when it was meta to build 7 tps on every map on EP. XP is so good in aoe3. XP is even better with DE powercreep.
Minor civ balance is itself busted because the units are strong or something but also they just give free big buttons that recharge???? Granting magyar huss and 4 musk... for fuckn free on top of getting berber vills, xp, and units that cost influence from TPs (free stagecoach). Every few minutes.
Saying "every strat that includes nat posts is buffed" doesn't discount that hausa's is benefitted most, because it was already meta, now it's just meta+.
I know you said that africa civs were overnerfed so nothing is going to change your mind.

90 percent of the games i'm playing now are versus ethopians going tower outlaws. This is beyond boring now.

Re: Age of Empires III: Definitive Edition – Update 13.12327
It was kynesie strat more so than "meta". You get a good amount of vills (that changes from map to map) but you're forced into a specific strat. 9v (at best) alone don't give a real competitive advantage otherwise any civ would be excited to send 5+4v or the equivalent, but in practice it doesn't happen too often. I didn't even have the Berber card in my decks, except for the specific TP strat one. 4v more standard and more usable (altho the design of the civ just pushes for sending crates instead).callentournies wrote: ↑24 Jun 2022, 19:08I'm not understanding.

I know you said that africa civs were overnerfed so nothing is going to change your mind.
As for the "2nd hero card" it was a way for Hausa to have synergy with a card that has potentially other benefits later in the game. Now you can send the 3v card instead but you lose the advantage of having an "atp" card for the specific strat against civs that don't have that option. Either way it's not that relevant because the TPs are only slightly chepaer now (-60f basically) and any civ benefits from that. Hausa didn't even have the problem of building TPs in a short time span (because of the 2 explorers) so if anything the change benefits other ATP civs more, because they only have one explorer to work with (Spain can now build TPs with dogs for example).
Idk which civ benefits the most from the tp change. You know, building a billion tps just to have a decent vill card isn't exactly OP or anything. I'd rather just build the one or two I need for units/tech and ship 5v (and 4v if it's any useful in the MU).
As for the xp trickle, nat posts already used to do that (and influence for African civs), what is different now?
New nats are indeed sort of busted, intentionally. They usually have some outstanding stat plus the new promotion mechanic. Devs are obviously trying to funnel players into using them on regular basis (which I don't like). If anything it helps the most the civs that don't have great units to work with or, obviously, civs that have ups for nats and can build a strat around that.
For example, at release I thought Italians would benefit a lot from making cav nats whenever possible as none of the standard units is one you want to bring to the 3rd age (except from the pavisier but it's akward to semi FF with only a RI unit), and despite having free houses you're capped at how many you can make in early age2. I guess now with refined builds the assesment is slightly different and maybe a musk or huss semi FF into switching to better units is viable or sort of.
Anyway, African civs usually have their own nat from the respective age up and have great standard units too. I wouldn't (and actually never did) bother making nat post units with Hausa or Ethiopia.
Oh btw Hausa now has an xp penalty like India, but with a clearly worse card bonus. It's definetely worse than before and I really don't understand people complaining about them or Ethiopia.
Best civs now are the classic ones like Brits, China, Inca, India, etc.

You don't play the game and come to me with this idea.
any good player who uses africans will win 80 90% of matches.
Kaiser would become invincible.
all you need is a good macro, produce the necessary amount of units and attack, if you need to go to 3fortress and guarantee the game anyway.
Kaiser sucks
