I would like to ask anyone who reads this to help answering questions from new players on Steam. We all know how fast people tend to leave when something doesn't work or when something is bugged. Based on experience, the AoE3 Steam forums will explode coming weeks, so it would be nice if we could do this together!

Well well well- I was going to wait until American Samoa but hell, 8$? Might as well get it now. I imagine I will suck until I get a computer mouse.. By suck I mean still own Captains and below =) Pappa Smurf comin to town! See you soon.- M3RL1N_

Oh! Do I need to download any patches to play multiplayer proper online? Like this patch on the top of my screen call "Download the lastest ESOC patch!"?

Thanks for help- much love from Nepal

You do not need to download any patches, steam version already includes latest patches. Esoc patch is a fan patch.

Fan patch, yet highly recommended at a decent (~pr20) level.

Also in treaty there is no meta so they don t need to watch pro recs.
On top of that watching a treaty game isn't even interesting.

I just hope DE is not going to implement all of the EP changes. Right now it is a big clusterfuck.

What do the media team and new players have in common? :P

Imo helping newer players is not the responsibility for a couple of people, but it's a job for us all since we are all part of this community and want more people to play and stay.

AoM is also on sale, which I took advantage of. Now I have to learn how to play that haha. Do you guys know a good youtube, twitch, or forum that would help with learning build orders and such?

Well, as a media team, you should operate around other AoE3-related sites, like Twitch and Youtube, which as far as I know you already do, but also something like Reddit, Steam, official AoE forums. Get to werk, Dutchies! :coin: :coin: :coin:

Yeah pretty much. Though I am on Twitch, Youtube, Twitter, Steam, here and the official AoE forums already. That's pretty much all except Reddit. Reddit is something I don't have much experience with tbh.

But imo it's not our job to fix (tech) problems, mainly because we don't really have the knowledge for all problems. That's why we need everyone! :kinggreen:

Yeah, I noticed that, you're personally doing a good job! Indeed, it seems some of the problems mentioned on Steam are technically related, I didn't realise that.
Also, I always reply to noob Reddit questions and try to explain the beginners the basics of the game! :pop:

I love Reddit.

Musketeer9529 is the moderator over at the /aoe3 subreddit but he isn't terribly active there. It would be nice to have full ESOC/Reddit integration (with a stickied post on the top of the subreddit linking this website) but that would be up to musketeer which he may not want to do.
