Informal poll of the wise heads of AoEZone.
In each of the following situations how do you think AoE2 would be affected? (Worse off, the same, better off)
Feel free to explain why.
1) AoE4 was never announced, and therefore never created and released.
2) AoE4 was released in the same state but a few years earlier (say 2018/19).
3) AoE4 is released in the same state but a few years later (2023/24).
4) AoE4 is released in a better state but a few years later (2023/24).
What do you mean by "0 eco" gameplay?Frost Giant's game will probably be like Immortals aka Starcraft 2 clones so I don't see them competiting with AoE. Premade maps with 0 eco gameplay doesn't have any appeal to me. Also graphics will probably be weird alien stuff unlike AoE games.
AoE3 colloseum scenario style 11What do you mean by "0 eco" gameplay?
all you need is just create workers. everything is always next to your base and you can forget them. in aoe you need explore resources that are spread around map and not around your HQ, make lumber camps instead of you base next to resources, multiple resources instead of 2 that you need to gather in any situation. etc.What do you mean by "0 eco" gameplay?
man, don't take things literally. point is It's nowhere as complex as in aoe. 2 resource types with res next to HQ tells it already. it's much more about military than ecoJust create workers 4Head.
Oh but also saturate properly, assign the right amount of workers based on your strategy, take new bases, build new supply structures and military buildings, utilize mules/chrono boost, all while dealing with nonstop military pressure.
all you say, there is in age2. and in age 2 you have 2 more resources, plus sometimes water, plus animals that can screw you at the begining.Just create workers 4Head.

SC2 is easier to manage in terms of eco balance.i watch some SC2 games on youtube.
i know is faster paced, but like tempires said, you have only 2 resources, you know where the resources are. i watched that in the gas resource, you can only put 3 workers if you are zerg, dont know the others. you dont have to bring the boar, and the boar dont attack you because there is no boar, you dont have to push the deers, and so many other things. maps are way simplier than aoe2. in fact, dont know why there are diferent maps because are all the same. the resources are in the same point.

the only thing for me, is the military presure, but i see some games that the pressure was not a lot. was similar to an aoe2 game in castel imperial.
sc2 pros do well in rts games in general. aoe2 pros mostly do well only in aoe2. (viper being the exception ofc).SC2 is easier to manage in terms of eco balance.
Otherwise, it's more punishing of your mistakes in terms of army management. You slip up, you lose your entire army and gg. AOE2 has more venues for making comebacks.
All in all, both games have a high skill ceiling. One difference is that SC2 pros are all generally younger than the AOE2 pros.
And Hera, Capoch, Running, Daut, and a host of other players who have been competitive in other RTS gamessc2 pros do well in rts games in general. aoe2 pros mostly do well only in aoe2. (viper being the exception ofc).

It's "0 eco" in some ways relative to AoE2 but not others seems like a fair conclusion. I agree it feels a little more simplistic in terms of in-game mechanics but at the same time it requires many of the same management skills.man, don't take things literally. point is It's nowhere as complex as in aoe. 2 resource types with res next to HQ tells it already. it's much more about military than eco
One of these games has a 125.000 $ tournament going on right now 11...

think SC2 is like EW. that thing you say of the army, in EW happens a lot.SC2 is easier to manage in terms of eco balance.

They aren't taking in consideration the beast of all streaming platforms "facebook gaming"What about twitch gamepass, have you taken that into consideration
please dont forget age 2 HDIs there any reason other than Marketing to splurge another 300k on aoe4 (glad aoe2 gets something as well) while its clear that the game has bottomed out and even the recent patches are not bringing the crowd back for aoe4
if you add to the age HD the people that play in voobly, it can tie the age4 numbersplease dont forget age 2 HD

Read his post from yesterday, i doubt nothing has changed in one day from asking https://www.aoezone.net/threads/new-redbull-wololoo-coming.181744/page-15#post-782211@MaSmOrRa what happened to your video? I keep coming to this thread when it is updated and leaving empty handed... What did you make him say, did he reveal how Gates put chips into Corona vaccines? They seem to have a lot of things to say compated to our standard Mou video this time.
