Apomonomenos Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 Now that I learned that there won't be ages in the game like AoM and AoK, I was wondering if a player has to start out building a type of building that leads to unlock another building, or can a player just build a wonder when he just starts?

Villi Posted June 27, 2008 Share Posted June 27, 2008 The game will have tiers in form of "phases", which I imagine will work pretty much the same way as the ages in the "Age of ..." games.One thing I wonder though is if the phases will be global or seperate for each territory.

Justinian Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 From what I know the phases system is ages in disguise... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apomonomenos Posted June 28, 2008 Author Share Posted June 28, 2008 So there will be Ages? Mythos_Ruler told me that there won't be ages. OK, so I kinda asked him, but he only said no, so their might be Ages or "Phases". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 Phases make more sense and it probably will be fairly similar to ages, but then again, what isn't? Without phases or ages games would be less fun and much faster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aeros Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 Try Company of Heroes. Excellent RTS, no ages or phases. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 Try Company of Heroes. Excellent RTS, no ages or phases.Company of Heroes works because of the time period it focuses in on, how resources are acquired, etc... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kimball Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 There are no ages, in that each civilization is 'frozen' in time. There are phases, however, that are based on the size and age of your city rather than the age of your civilization. The larger the city, the more it is capable of.

Justinian Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 So if you have 'x' houses, 'y' military buildings, and you have been around for 'z' time, you can Phase Up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kimball Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 Sort of, except the 'phasing up' is automated. It's not like in AoM where you physically have to buy an advancement upgrade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrEmjeR Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 got that game with my new video card but I never played it. is it realy cool? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Villi Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 (edited) It's excellent.It does have tiers though, they're just not as important as in "age of ..." etc.I'd like to repeat my question; are the phases global or seperate for each territory?

MrEmjeR Posted June 30, 2008 Share Posted June 30, 2008 they are realtive to every building.there are no straight upgrades for ages.by ages upgrade the buildings change in one time to another building. not very realistic. lol we are now disuessing about the proporition between the characteristics of a RPG and the realistic of the game.

Apomonomenos Posted July 1, 2008 Author Share Posted July 1, 2008 Just played it, it's really graphic. But if you play as the Nazis, they have ages.Great, now I'm addicted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cassador_Chris Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 CoH is really realistic. Excellent graphics, excellent sound, fully destructible environment, realistic and strategic combat, etc. etc. Only bad thing about the game was the lack of diversity. You could play as the Germans or the Americans. (or in the expansion, the Germans and the British). It would have been nice to have played with the Japanese and Russians, and it would have been nice to have a greater diversity of landscapes.
