Yes I think it is.
How does that seem fair to you?
Yes I think it is.
I dont think those are "game features" which people talked about. Besides, steam has better social features than voobly in certain aspects, just that those are not tailor made for aoe. (Eg. voice chat / watching POV)there were features that are now gone
people still live, people still play (people still complain)
And its indeed bad when tourneys changed from invitations only to qualifiers with seedings based on ladder elo, unless there are specific map elo.(not to mention being able to play the map you want, because apparently thats a bad thing, somehow...)
Spanning even back to beta and maybe before? And how does it correspond to for example this?
T90 seems very toxic, ungrateful, and frankly, entitled in that twitter thread. Doesn't he know that the devs are pouring their hearts and souls into this game? Shameful.I'd wish words weren't so readily taken for granted (as they come rather easy) and rather were scrutinised in relation to reality - if it was really true about the great level of contact and great care they take to fix everything reported from that closed group (and I know such a contact exists, it was also already questioned before for another reason, and that was possible foreknowledge of balance changes as in regard to tournament preparation and practice), then why and how exactly do we have the state of the game we do half a year after release? With many, many of the issues not being new at all? Spanning even back to beta and maybe before? And how does it correspond to for example this?
Simply even if it's fully true that way, it's quite obviously not nearly enough.
I also wish people weren't so willing to forgive and forget for one good word. Because that's how we got into this situation in the first place.
To be completely fair, I think the only time I've seen a top player say that was during the Rise of Rajas beta, in one version where their pierce armor was bugged and set to 0 instead of 2 without anyone noticing. Turns out having effectively 0 pierce armor does make you feel like the unit needs a buff.I've heard about in the past, and it involved "expert players" telling the devs that originally balanced Arambai were too weak and needed to be boosted (lol)
but then you make 10 of them by min 22 and realize you can hit and run and kill 40 knightsTo be completely fair, I think the only time I've seen a top player say that was during the Rise of Rajas beta, in one version where their pierce armor was bugged and set to 0 instead of 2 without anyone noticing.

Oh yeah for sure, they were still very deadly. But it was beta testing, and having witnessed a few betas, it's really hard to properly assess the strength of a unit when the whole civ is new and you can't play too many games in the first place, even if you are Viper or Tatoh.but then you make 10 of them by min 22 and realize you can hit and run and kill 40 knights
- Do pros have any influence on the balance changes?

Everyone saying you cannot play without a certain feature anymore sound a bit silly to me.
For years and years you played perfectly fine without. You just used the feature for half a year, I'm pretty sure that within another half a year you get used to not having it again.
right, thats literally what I said and the only other option. there is not a single thing in between. yup, i want everyone to go back to aokYea lets go back to age of kings where vills stand idle after campsites are built, they dont drop off resources when building farms and when tasked to make walls with 2+ vills they don't split evenly and all go for the same tile. xDDDD
Update Light Grid Terrain to include the "LEAVES" Terrain, Make small walls work on all Kind of Walls + WK wallsI am curious, what are the "flaws" we must fix, everyone is talking about?

For these reasons, i quitted the game long ago.
Angry Austrian is angryThen why are you still writing enraged, dubious and conspirationist essays about it? Give yourself some closure and move on with your life. Your heart and body will thank you in a few years. This level of anger is just unhealthy.

Auto scout:
How is it a troll? Say your starting sc is somehow still alive minute 18 but has like less than 5hp. Why not let it auto scout? Early on it's super inefficient to use it as it struggles to find 8 sheep and the enemy and loves to scout corners and edges of map so manual scouting is better as intended. But mid game its perfectly viable. Especially since in feudal age the scout cavalry does move faster. Has more LOS and auto scout sort of becomes justified. I don't see why it's considered a troll when it helps finds extra res + relics.
I do not remmeber not being able to play on voobly due to some "random patch". But I am unable to play now just as I was unable to play during february and some other months. Lets not mention stuff like units walking through buildings, telelporting, etc.Yeah. This romancing of how the game was is annoying. It's as if before DE everything was flawless. Some players still refuse to aknowledge multiqueue as the "standard" way of playing the game. Ahh the good old times of reseeding every farm and having seizures from switching between 20 military buildings.
