As usual, @real_tabasco_sauce talking some sense

Change for the sake of change is useless. 0 A.D. is already unique in other ways.

If you want to be aggressive, you can be aggressive with CS army. However, you shouldn't be allowed to mass OP army and stay aggressive. OP army is a late game army. This has nothing to do with the build. If you want OP units, you'd have to build an OP building.

I agree 100%. This will also need to be adjusted for the AI, and it will allow it to use the champions earlier (as soon as it builds a Fort). The change is good for historical accuracy. Most soldiers were pretty average and 80% of them had lower-tier equipment. Elite soldiers were kept as a part of separate battalions/legions. Also, new players will adjust better to the gameplay, as the mental image will be: 1) Barracks/Stables are used for citizen soldiers, 2) Forts and other special buildings train champions. I support this for Release 28.

The meat food icon is how the food is being represented in other similar, historical RTS games.

100% this. Looks perfect.

If you want the best graphics, play with the settings options. Keep everything on "High". I would advise to keep Shadows on Medium, unless you really have good specs. Playing on massive maps with high graphics settings is a good way to play the slide shows game, at least.

Nah, makes no sense. I guess we can boost a female gather rate of minerals by 0.05 points per second. The point is not in the removal of CS concept, the point is to promote diverse and viable strategies.

This is a great suggestion, and it's not the first time I see it proposed. I wouldn't make it 30 seconds, 10 seconds is already enough. 15 seconds max.

Yes.

Some of the comments: "We have not decided on a set number. We are aiming for a beta in late 2012 or early 2013." "We're hoping to include an easier version of the AI with Alpha 13. Glad you like the game so far." "Thanks, but sorry, we will not have people on the walls, only garrisonned in towers and other buildings. (We thought about it initially, but found out it would take too much time to implement.)" (commenting on a beta timeline) "Hopefully within a year. The number of large features left is steadily dropping " In conclusion, the game was set to have a lot less features before the beta release. I've installed it to try and see if I can beat the supposedly tough AI. If I like this release, I will keep it and move on. Hopefully you guys release a final version soon.

Filter by compatible replays. Those 2 are for solo play. Borg played multi player. Please see the FAQ for the forum.

@Ludwik, if you still don't see them after going into the Replays section in game, move all subfolders into the "0.27.0" folder.

@Ludwik, that is a link to the forum thread. You need to go to a post in that thread and download the ZIP files. Once you do that, place them in your replays folder inside a separate folder. The subfolder's name should relate to the game (who fought, is it a team game, free for all or 1v1, etc.). Then, in game, you go to Single Player -> Replays There, you should find your replay.

They should be. Smaller army for the player is both easier to control and means less lag when moving it. The AI doesn't know how to keep its army alive, so smaller armies are also easier to destroy.

@Seleucids see, I told you that slingers are OP.

Sabaton - Templars

The game balance. The Romans already have a Siege Catapult, giving them the Onager for free as well would be too imbalanced.

To make the cool Romans even cooler, of course. I love suddenly having 150 elite units on the map.

@Ludwik Replays for the latest release (alpha 27) are here: https://wildfiregames.com/forum/forum/489-alpha-27/ To watch these replays, you must download them, and place them in the "replays" directory. On Windows, this directory is at: Documents/My Games/0ad/replays

I'm not sure why should we make "Very Easy" easier when we already have a difficulty "Sandox". Which is what Very Easy will become if we nerf it even further. I don't think Very Easy reaches the City phase, but if it does, that should maybe be corrected.

Hello @Ludwik, welcome to the forums! The game is naturally competitive, as there are currently no official campaigns available. So, the only way to enjoy the single player is matches against the AI. Many players, myself included, consider the current AI lacking after learning the basics of the game. Believe me, you will want a greater challenge once you get more familiar with the game. My advice would be to watch some games on Youtube and reduce the game's speed at the start. Depending on your experience with other RTS games, you should quickly start winning against even the Medium AI We also have the Game Replays section, where you can dowload some of my and other players games.

@real_tabasco_sauce An bare-chested Axeman that deals hack and crush damage? You couldn't be more generic than that, but they are barbarians, after all.

Thank you for the invitation, but I barely have enough time to play SP as much as I want to.
