Athanasius Posted June 1, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 1, 2009 (edited) Thank youpersonally I enjoy history and European mythology (haven't gotten round to the other continents ) especially Greek, I favor RTS's above other game types though I prefer RTS's that are from the medieval period backwards. in multiplayer games I am an excellent defender but not so good at attack so I generally build up impregnable defenses but lose because i don't attack the enemy and they have built up massive forces .

feneur Posted June 1, 2009 Report Share Posted June 1, 2009 I recognize that, I haven't played much MultiPlayer, mostly just against the computer. But I do have a tendency to build a lot of defences, sometimes in AoK I've been building towers as a way to attack almost Building towers/castles closer and closer to the enemy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Athanasius Posted June 1, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 1, 2009 For me it was AOM, I get so used to playing the computer that i treat my Multiplayer enemies like the computer which ultimately Causes massive problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Athanasius Posted June 1, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 1, 2009 (edited) I was just wondering (looking at pictures of 0 AD) do you buy units in squads (like RTW) or singular (Like AOE/AOM)- is there going to be a tutorial?

Mythos_Ruler Posted June 1, 2009 Report Share Posted June 1, 2009 The Scenario Design dept, when they get up and running, will make a small tutorial for release when the game comes out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Athanasius Posted June 1, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 1, 2009 (edited) I know this question has been asked hundreds of times before but which year would you expect 0 AD to be completely finished or a beta version released. (2010/11/12? hopefully not 12 though)sorry if I sound a bit preachy but your quote should be "In peace sons bury their fathers. In war fathers bury their sons." shouldn't it?
