Retitled: "AoE2:DE's Multiplayer will be server-based" - Cysion

[Elvaenor]

DE has 4 different speeds, I think they are 1.0 1.5 1.7 and 2.0, each with different names.

True but he also said that the default for multi-player will be 1.7 right?

They said that they want DE to feel familiar when you first jump in so I assume so.

 

using technology from AoE4, for example "Relic Link" (anti-cheat-tool, allows player profiles, similar to Battle.net)

I wonder what this "anti-cheat tool" is doing all of a sudden and how well it is working.

Seems like some people were maybe a little quick to discredit doubts about the pathfinding 11

Funny how even in 2021, pro players cite pathfinding issues as a reason for not using melee units, while former microsoft sycophant/current microsoft employee Zak "Bobomb" Robinson belittled BlackAdder for the crime of recognizing early on how **** the pathfinding was, to the applause of aoezone users.

If anyone thinks the game still has pathfinding issues, DE was like this from release -> more than 6 months after release:

Now the pathing seems better but it makes me laugh how Microsoft employees like ZeroEmpires, Robo or Nili always defend their employer's products :D

Yeah I lost a healthy amount of respect for him when I saw that.

That's what they are employed for. Establish yourself within the community first and then shill for corporate overlords

Seems our little community is not free of greed
Zak, Nili , T90 , Viper , Robo

I like to pretend they are building a future for their children, but that old creeping doubt in the back of my mind says other things occasionally

For real, does Zak's cringetacular posting on page 4 not bother anyone who liked this? It's flamboyant negativity in obvious service of personal bias. That is the sort of toxic contribution everyone in the community always complains about. Is it okay coming from him because he works for Microsoft and made some YouTube videos people liked?

Was actually curious and checked it out but tbh, considering other things on here, it doesn’t bother me a whole lot (wouldn’t put a like there myself).

What actually bothers me on this site, is how in “drama topics”, there’s posts specifically being written in such a way that they are the equivalent to a middle finger to another user and how a lot flock towards that stuff. Then it’s basically a battle of who’s giving the bigger and badder flip off (more likes).

It's more tasteful in its level of transgression, if you will.

Yeah I have noticed this too but always struggled to put words to it. Think you have a good way of describing it. Sometimes it is actually necessary to call people out in this way but they do far too often devolve into like elementary school friend groups that are in a popularity war with each other.

Perhaps you should do a little more digging
