Alekusu Posted January 16, 2015 Report Share Posted January 16, 2015 Hey guys,I'd like to know the best timing of other players to reach the 300 pop limit. I did a few tests against the IA in really easy difficulty so it doesn't attack me.I reached 300 population with the britons in 16min with 60 women / 240 soldiers (infantry only)What's your timing ?(please give the time when you reach 300, with the number of women and tell if it's infantry only or infantry/cavalry mix)I just want to know if I can make it quicker or not.thx !

Gussebb Posted January 16, 2015 Report Share Posted January 16, 2015 16 min sounds extremely quick. do you even get to new age too? what is your build? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alekusu Posted January 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2015 (edited) Yes I get to phase 2. My build order at the beginning is classic, some women on wood, then later transition to farms.Before phasing, I have 12 farms (60 womens) and it is enough to produce from 3 barracks and CC batches of 10 soldiers.I also have 15 soldiers on stone to make slingers, 10 soldiers on metal for upgrades, a market to trade my extra wood to food.If I new how to record a video, I would put it here to show you. If someone knows a good way/software for me to record a video while playing I'll do it. I'm on a mac by the way Edited January 16, 2015 by Alekusu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gussebb Posted January 16, 2015 Report Share Posted January 16, 2015 i dont think i can beat 16 min yet xD. would be nice if there was like a build order page on the 0ad wiki. - and Fraps is really good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

niektb Posted January 16, 2015 Report Share Posted January 16, 2015 I think I would go with OBS. In my experience that works much better than Fraps. https://obsproject.com 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alekusu Posted January 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2015 enjoy !A few things, I didn't focus on managing my deposit stock for wood, and I think I could do it faster. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iNcog Posted January 17, 2015 Report Share Posted January 17, 2015 (edited) I might steal that build of yours, heheh.Edit: here's my 300: http://i.imgur.com/NdLTehQ.pngprobably ~30 soldiers, 1 cav and all villagers after thatfirst try though, so lots of room for improvement Edited January 17, 2015 by iNcog Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

niektb Posted January 17, 2015 Report Share Posted January 17, 2015 Does it also differ with the Civilization you use? Are some civilizations more suited for mass unit production than others? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iNcog Posted January 17, 2015 Report Share Posted January 17, 2015 When you say villagers do you mean female villagers ? 270 female villagers ?yeapso useless for combat, unlike your max outthen again i just used houses. made like one rax and made 10 units out of it, xDi used iberians which i got from random, i wouldn't have been able to max out as fast with, say, romans because i did a house boom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alekusu Posted January 18, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2015 (edited) Does it also differ with the Civilization you use? Are some civilizations more suited for mass unit production than others?Ptolemes can mass unit faster.Any civ that have some units than doesn't cost wood (like slingers) or food (like ptolemes archers) are in my opinion more suited for mass unit production. Because that means it will cost stone or metal and these two ressources are really easy to manage (a mine doesn't move) and you can have a better balance between all the ressources.But, with good micro and practice, I think I can probably get the same result (300pop at 16min with 60women) with any civ.
