Lion.Kanzen Posted March 2, 2014 Report Share Posted March 2, 2014 First of all, for praise: This is awesome! As a longtime player of Empire Earth (by the same folks as AoE), I found the gameplay and interface so intuitive you could have tricked me into thinking it was a beta version of EE. Plus the music is great and the graphics are impressive, and there are a few neat features that EE never had. I LOVE that you can make soldiers do work. That said, I have a couple suggestions based on what I like about EE.1) Command groups. You select a bunch of units, assign them a designation with a number key, and when you press that key, all of those units are simultaneously selected. 2) Paused micromanagement. Some people might consider this cheating. Sue me. You pause the game, give orders, unpause it, and they are carried out. 3) I've read various things about an attack-move command, but I came to the tenuous conclusion that it wasn't implemented yet. If it has been, I do apologize. 4) This is a pretty bold suggestion, but I can dream: Use this engine and the experience from this game to make a stone-space age civilization/rts like Empire Earth! God I would love that. I would help, if, you know, I knew how to program beyond "hello world." I will be making a donation to the project when I get paid again though.Keep up the epic work! Finding this game has made me very excited!This can be possibly but is needed the game is finish and bring many modders and fans. Something like to 7-20 to team focused in a era.

If it has been, I do apologize. Ctrl+right click for the attack move. You can read the tutorial (learn to play) for other hotkeys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ridergr Posted March 2, 2014 Report Share Posted March 2, 2014 Great game! I play for a few days but it looks great!Some suggestions (perhaps they allready told but its a long topic!!!) rec game abilityspectator modePlayers score and perhaps age in gamefriend list and pm in game lobby Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stan` Posted March 2, 2014 Report Share Posted March 2, 2014 Spectator mode would be nice. Some people like to watch others to see how to play.About recording would that be possible without too much lag ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
feneur Posted March 2, 2014 Report Share Posted March 2, 2014 Spectator mode would be nice. Some people like to watch others to see how to play.About recording would that be possible without too much lag ?Recording more or less works already, there might be a few things needed for proper replayability (I don't think e.g. camera movements etc are recorded), but generally that part works.The big thing though is to actually make it possible to play it back, the existing code just plays it back automatically without anything being displayed. So it's not as if it works as-is, but the recording part works. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sanderd17 Posted March 2, 2014 Report Share Posted March 2, 2014 There is a patch to display recordings, but it's very hacky. It's like you're in a normal game, the units just move automatically (by recorded commands). So you can influence the recording and see something different, which isn't really a wanted feature.Before it gets included, the patch needs some work done on it (and maybe a gui, but that's optional for the first version).

Lion.Kanzen Posted March 7, 2014 Report Share Posted March 7, 2014 (edited) I new a new idea how play with mini factions without create new civilization or faction, can be like AOE III : Warchiefts.Wikipedia explain the new feature in AOE 3 Revolutions[edit]A sample revolution screen where the player (German civilization) decides whether to pick Bolívar (Peru) or San Martín (Argentina), and their respective bonuses.European colonies have a new option open to them in the Industrial age; instead of advancing to the Imperial age, they can revolt from the home nation and found their own country. The initial cost of revolting is cheaper than advancing to the Imperial age but the nation's economy will stagnate because all settlers will turn into militia and no new ones can be built (except Coureur des Bois from a Cree Village). Resources can continue to be delivered from pre-constructed ships, tributed resources, trading posts, factories and for the Dutch, banks.The chief advantage of a revolution is one-time military boost when all settlers turn into militia suddenly giving the player a large army. When a revolution is initiated, a choice is presented between two historical revolutionary leaders, each with a unit specific bonus. The player can no longer receive home city shipments but instead can draw from a "Revolutionary Deck" of four cards, three which may be re-played an infinite number of times providing unit caps are not exceeded. Three new units are available only through a revolution; the Ironclad, the Gatling Gun, and Colonial Militia. If the map has water, the new nation can receive two Ironclads which are hybrid Frigate/Monitors. Four Gatling Guns can be delivered which are similar to the Portuguese Organ Gun but fire much faster and do more damage. Sixteen Colonial Militia can be delivered in a shipment which are hybrid Musketeer/Skirmish units. Finally a Fort Wagon can be sent which will unpack into a fort. A new nation may not upgrade units to Imperial Age.Now how I propose this p gameplay in our game. Like a new phase but like separatist state like Pontos, Like gallo Roman Empire, Like Palmyrans Empire, with late Romans and Seleucid can be nice. Example: You chosse to be seleucid or rebel satrapy with same units, wonders and bonus, but with own emblem, heroes and elite units. Same to Athens and Siracuse. Or Other rebel factions.For now the list are from Seleucid and Hellenistic Faction that join into a rebellion agaistn their masters.Seleucid: Bactria, Pontos, early Parthians, PergamonAthens: Siracuse.(colony)Late Romans: Palmyra, Gallo-Roman Empire. Britano-Romans (crisis from third century) 0A.D p2 Parthians:Sassanids, Armenians.Goths:Ostrogoths.Advantages.This can be good to specialize troops.

All loves minifactions is a alternative to be an Empire.This.

Lion.Kanzen Posted March 7, 2014 Report Share Posted March 7, 2014 Agreed. I could do it Be can have 3 official version of 0 A.D.Empires Ascendents.Empires Besieged.And... Some with extra stuff. Something like platinum edition. A very large version with lot of stuff.In the pack can have several eye candy stuff , extra gameplay, wallpaper and those digital merchandise option. Obviously for free.But you know the download can be a large file. That's why I called platinum Version. And can be a Tribute for all.Can be like or more than Forgotten Empires or other extra content like DLC that are common in this age of gaming.

And Enrique is working alone those days.Is important add more gameplay, the people are curious to try new things that are based in old and traditional ones.The fan art is important, we represent history with this. We show that humans were legends in human history.To bring more be need create legends and fun time.

Thorfinn the Shallow Minded Posted March 8, 2014 Report Share Posted March 8, 2014 One thing that could be done is to make the blacksmith a feasible drop off site for metal ores. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mythos_Ruler Posted March 8, 2014 Report Share Posted March 8, 2014 One thing that could be done is to make the blacksmith a feasible drop off site for metal ores. I can see why you'd want this from a semi-realistic point of view. But from a gameplay point of view, I think it would be better to keep the buildings as separate as possible. As focused in their tasks and uses as we can. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lion.Kanzen Posted March 8, 2014 Report Share Posted March 8, 2014 It's possibly have the building system from AoM. If you try to drop a building over other structure the system try to snap it more close that can it's possibly , that make more easily place building near others. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lion.Kanzen Posted March 10, 2014 Report Share Posted March 10, 2014 The Ai improves his survivor tactics but for some reason after his 3third attack all units do nothing except few females builder.Sometimes UnitAi don't do anything even be closing or near from an enemy buildings.Other bugs is when you select a bunch of units and accidentally a siege tower and try the units garrison inside the siege tower.
