While the game might not be in a perfect state and bugs like the C: Nuke are outright stupid, the game is still in a much better state than RE. On Re, maps are fucked, Otto and Iro are stupid, spain and dutch are unplayable, you still have the ftj and other connectivity issues you always had, cheaters are abundant, etc.

TAD never was a perfect game, we just got used to many of its quirks or alleviated them by playing on EP. I think it is quite fair to say that DE is far superior to RE.

edit: also thanks kaiser and all the others who are sacrificing free-time to give the devs feedback and hopefully make the game better

So you really think RE with no anti cheat, terrible balance, terrible maps, all the bugs we know, is more playable than current DE? Sure DE has some bugs and issues RE doesn't have, but much less than the other way around

In short, yes. Things like balance really donā€™t matter that much to the vast majority of players especially when you often canā€™t even launch a fair team game due to multiple bugs, people crashing, or teams being completely imba.

It's not true balance doesn't matter. Even players at the lowest level will complain about stuff like insta unkillable cuirs or 20 range goons. I don't mean the balance has to be as good as EP, but there are clearly way too many broken mechanics on RE.
Same goes for having at least one player with absolutely no hunt in 99% of your 3v3s on e.g GP.
Or the FTJ and OOS issues, and cheaters. Or just the servers straight up dying for half an hour lol. Sure DE has its fair amount of crashes and bugs, and I hope they'll be fixed soon, but we're forgetting a bit too quickly about what we used to get on legacy.

yeah but balance is not the same at all levels. Check the oficial forums. Noone there complains or care about inca dock BB, swe midgame eco or spain bowpike fi. This morning I read a few balance threads there, and people were complaining about axe riders having too much siege or how meteor hammers should have +50hp.


I agree that broken mechanics should be fixed asap, but that is only possible if the game has a balance team that actually knows the game.

I played some RE games the past few days and they were more enjoyable than any I've had on DE so far. And I didn't say anything about broken units, I said balance which isn't exclusive to broken stuff.

I hope to enjoy DE when it stops being a steaming pile.

The TC radius which denies buildings near it actually stays for like 10-15 s or even more after you get it down ,I came to know this when i wanted to build trading post ...once on Jailed's stream not sure if this is intended feature this needs to be fixed .

Next is the Advanced Scouts card for Warchief civs ,in DE you can train scouts from WC after you send so for Sioux it's kinda broken ,especially in team games ,you hide your explorer and make scouts kinda like delayed chasqui rush ,even in 1v1 it's lame af and when i watched Fitzbro stream i saw Viev1 win with it lol.I just want to know if this was again intended or not because in legacy/EP it just allowed you to train from TCs only & i having dilemma writing a Scout rush guide because of this ,if it's legit and doesn't get changed worth doing it for fun lol.

I feel like the news feature on the main title screen is a little forgotten and out of date

At least RE can run on almost any pc and, as a bonus feature, it does not erase your personal data.
Whenever I play legacy AOE3, I use EP to avoid those specific issues you mention. I think it is better than playing a blurry, buggy, memory leaking DE.

im still just so frustrated by lag and disconnecting. I've played like 100 games now and i swear half of my losses are just because I disconnect so often. On RE if I disconnected, it was because my internet had stopped working. On DE, I can disconnect and then immediately open up netflix and twitch and everything plays just fine. I can even go and play other games like rocket league with no problem. Not perfect ping, but no problem playing games. I swear to god this is some problem with how the game is optimized and not an issue with my own personal internet.

That's weird, I rarely disconnect at all on DE. I only experienced disconnection issues in team games at launch.

not sure if these are mentioned:

1. warships are often not attackable, very annoying when using cannons/ships special attack I just dont manage to click on the enemy boats.
2. when I press 'p' to train pike quite often it puts 2 in queue, sometimes just 1. can be annoying when you just wanna queue 1 but you queue 2 or when you train from 2 barackes and after 3 times pressing p you have 3 in queue in one and 6 in the other. not sure if it's a bug or my keyboard?
3. maybe i'm just wrong with this one, but I feel like maps repeat more than they should? so lets say I just played a game on mongolia, I feel like for my next game it's like 50% loading mongolia again. it doesn't feel completely random what map you're getting, some days I get new england 5 times in a row sometimes I don't see the map at all etc.
