Myth, you're gonna make me exhausted rather quickly if all you're going to do is take one sentence and assume I watched just one Hera game to say that. I've seen many things since 2005/2006. Nothing really has changed deeply as far as ara is concerned. A lot of it is the equivalent of old wine...
Somehow when I saw an alert, I just knew it was from you. Had this little tickle in my soul I couldn't shake off.
For what I mean about the aoc version of arabia, I'll put it in the cute way. 2/10 times or so, you'd spawn in a crater where a meteor landed, like one that ended the dinosaurs. I...
I thought Hearttt said there was one variation of arabia that devs 'got right' in his words. Was two versions before current one? No idea what that one was like, wish I saw it personally.
Arabia was more random in the past with numerous hills among other things. In DE, there's I'd almost say...
Not just you, it isn't completely the same game for me either. I kind of see it more as a different game than the one I loved during my teenage years and early twenties. Some ways it's better, other ways it's worse.
As for what helped, kind of just accepting it way it is and letting old...
If you mean the 13-14 min fc ones, don't know it exactly and I deleted the games I saw of it.
You could dl any Hoang Mongol game from aoe2recs for some weird forward + 17 min fc lancer shenanigans though since it's simple and probably works vs a lot of players. Or if you want to know normal...
Yeah Mongol steppes are so dumb. Once 40 are made, the game literally breaks vs almost all units. Seen 40 knights die vs 40 steppes and 20-25 survive, camels lose, pikes don’t work too, ca/xbow won’t work after awhile. Prisma for example has a really good bo for massing ton of steppes where you...
Don’t really want to get into the Facebook thing that much, but maybe it is pragmatic. What he did is the way of Stoicism though. You can’t control external forces, you only control your mind/reactions to events. I kind of always wondered about Viper since he was always different. Came off like...
Seems like Viper became a Stoic tbh or was into Stoicism. It's such an incredibly practical philosophy in many ways. Some of the ancient Stoics were a fascinating as well.
Yeah, it was definitely in good fun since Viper never acted that way towards anyone else. Most people also knew if you look at the old threads, miss the times. Everyone laughing and looking forward to their next games mainly/only because of their chat. Even the rec posters laughed at it too...
Guessing you've never seen Viper vs 8th wonder games over a period of like 2 years back in 2011/2012? They had some of the most entertaining in-game chats. Had to bookmark some of those too.
Anyway though, no one beats Dreams on aocgroup back in 2007/2008 with his infamous "You must be 2k...
Kind of a bit tired and my brain doesn’t seem to be working at 100% today (so can’t process all that really), but I don’t think castle age cases of market are any real issue. I don’t think I’ve seen any where it really seemed “unfair”. Feudal age cases are a different story. Also because it is...
Yeah market abuse in general looks like a problem. It seems useless to try and break walls with sc + ranged cause you just get walled out from distance as long as someone doesn’t mess up. You basically have to get lucky then opponent has like a 1-2 min quicker castle time maybe. Seen some high...
Almost tempted to post some of the older stuff I came across between Viper and 8th wonder if only it were to make others laugh the way I did (like how people found 8th wonder's arena comment funny). Some of the funniest things I've ever seen. But I dunno if people will see it was them playing...
@Sandyman
Searched whole year of 2013, was interesting. Might be misremembering since some tyrant topics were kicked up, and found this:
https://www.aoezone.net/threads/korea-kkab-vs-daut-serbia.94459/
It's kkab vs Daut, some of the leaked stuff, you can read it yourself. Now I'm 98% sure...
MQ did remove a "skill difference" if you want to call it that. Watched a 1700 vs a 2400 yesterday "macro" on par with him because you can have all buildings selected and press 1 key multiple times to make your army. That would never happen in the past, and was actually a difference of multiple...
