The fact that they had to do this workaround just to 'address' the mongol tc rush, rather than what you would think is a simple number fix is quite worrying. In fact, many of the broken bonuses and inconsistent numbers may indicate a very ugly spaghetti code base. I mean many of the bugs and...

Ok, I have finally learned my lesson after a decade and will never doubt the Viper ever again. By far the strongest and most consistent player in the main event and the true GOAT of Age of Empires. I didn't expect him to get so good so fast. Although, it is quite remarkable to think that he was...

I have never seen such a crazy timeline. The 32k food spike for Slam was hillarious, and the amount of cash Beastyqt made from raiding was mental. There have been some really amazing games of aoe4 like this, and it really shows the potential the game has as a spectacle. Though, I think Mongols...

I mean its for a great cause, but I think it's quite funny that Rus players will be going around the map systematically slaughtering every animal in exsistence in a wwf event.

Lucifron and Vortix have to be the biggest favourites in my opinion. These guys are absolute monsters and have insane levels of talent but are unknown yet to the aoe communities. Marinelord and theMista have a really good shot as well. It's very likely the main event is dominated by former...

Quite a few aom, aoe3 and aoeonline players have rebranded their streams to solely focus on aoe4 content and have already had pretty substantial growth. I have watched a lot of starcraft guys as well and overall they are fairly positive about their experience. Even Kasva mentioned in his stream...

Well one thing I really enjoy is all the aom, aoe3, aoeonline, aoe2 and some 2nd tier starcraft players all up against each other. Makes me really curious about who is going to preform in the upcoming tournaments. Game is growing on me somewhat, although there are many small details I really...

People are rightly upset here, on youtube, reddit etc because they still bought into concepts of community, loyalty to one another and so forth. To see these relationships continuously sidelined for money is upsetting. You can belittle them for being naive in the first place, but disillusionment...

I can't see this being in any way beneficial for the community... the biggest aoe2 content creator and streamer leaving twitch and fading into relative obscurity for a year or two like Viper did. Like Mixer was, facebook gaming is just inferior in all respects, who uses it is a mystery to me...

Its seems to be a common theme for 3d RTS games to look so similar aesthetically and play out with the same deficiencies and limitations. This game and the approach taken with it really reminds me of what Stronghold Crusader 2 attempted to do; reviving the franchise by imitating its most...

The fact this game doesn't have a functional restote system after nearly 2 years and with 100k events like this is really pathetic. Lucky daut wins that game anyway, but that really titled me. Crashing is one thing, but inability to safely recover games for a competitve 'esport' is something...

I have to say Mapu the observer has done such a good job, probably the smoothest camera work I have seen in any event with amazing attention to all important details. I admit that initally the idea of the observer annoyed me and seemed pointless and convoluted, but every event it has gotten...

Maybe I am in the minority but I am really growing tired with the GSL system. Too many repeat matchups in the decider games and unfair/unbalanced routes for certain players/teams. For instance, in the previous redbull Vilese beats mbl, narrowly loses to hera and then mbl again in the decider...

You're right, they should just be deleted. Instead of any real discussion about age of empires, every other thread here is meaningless drama created on misinformation and accusations. And it's always the same few toxic ****-flingers and political ideologues who stir the flames, hijack the...
