functional place of exchange, this isnt RuneScape get outta here KappaFeudal Age represents the first time your civilization is in a real society rather than a nomadic state so to not have a functional place of exchange then is absurd. If it's such a problem for certain civs to be able to sell or buy resources in the Feudal Age maybe the problem is with those civs rather than the market itself.
idk to me aoe2 is pretty uninteresting without the story aspectfunctional place of exchange, this isnt RuneScape get outta here Kappa
I agree. As someone who has played previous versions of this game, they made many changes to the balance, but not the market. In earlier forms of aoc, the market abuse was generally not as strong, ie fuedal age buildings, towers, and walls were stronger and maps were different too. In my view it should be punished for neglecting your economy and abusing the market as the game originally was not designed for this. The market price should be adjusted overall nerfing it totally in fuedal.This will be my first answer to this topic here.
I play this game been like 14 years, and like 8 competing on the big events, this is not a frustration because i “lost some games”, like you said. I say that because sometimes I win games that I shouldnt and I lose games that I shouldnt after some better or worse start on the early feudal. You just know something is broken after you get to see it.
Also, what I am saying is not to remove market trading, just puting it to castle age instead of feudal age. This is the same when team games were played before, everyone was just slinging because there was no really counter for that. What was made? Changing coinage from feudal to castle (and in some tournaments you would get coinage on imp only). Balance changes are part of the game and forums are made to discuss things, my main point here.
Your answer is very disrespectful, you should respect the opinion from someone that knows way more than you and is way better than you. There are good ways to answer (like every post before yours is).
