ZeZar Posted February 11, 2004 Report Share Posted February 11, 2004 Well, i just thought about this poll, and why not?I like Highland i think, no, Non water maps, hate water;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oluseyi Posted February 12, 2004 Report Share Posted February 12, 2004 I like small islands. Forces conflict, with nowhere to run. Admittedly, it becomes more of a wargame than a broad RTS/RPG under those circumstances... :samurai: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aeros Posted February 13, 2004 Report Share Posted February 13, 2004 Highlands have been my favorite since Age of Empires Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mythos_Ruler Posted February 14, 2004 Report Share Posted February 14, 2004 The bad thing about sea battles in AOM, is the STRICT paper-rock-scissors warfare. Sea warfare in AOK was a LOT more interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tonto_Icy_Tripod Posted February 14, 2004 Report Share Posted February 14, 2004 I disagree. Sea battles in aok were more of an econ game than actually having the right ships (you only had galleon line units). That said, watermaps were always my favourite, no matter what kind. That goes from aok to aom, spanning a whole 2 games and one x-pack Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZeZar Posted February 14, 2004 Author Report Share Posted February 14, 2004 Well, sea battles is Empires, is really not STRICT paper-rock-scissors warfare! I Promise! Its really cool, though as i said i think, comfusing ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkAngelBGE Posted February 28, 2004 Report Share Posted February 28, 2004 What is so confusing about it ZeZar ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZeZar Posted February 28, 2004 Author Report Share Posted February 28, 2004 Well, first of all. The size. I think when we have huge sea battles, i cant command anything And when sea is included, ships take over for the main consern, ground attacks. Yes, i really dont like naval fights, i really dont know why ... Or at lease i have tryed to explain it here ...!Well, simply because i think its comfusing. And in like team Islands, i cant rush lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mythos_Ruler Posted February 28, 2004 Report Share Posted February 28, 2004 I disagree. Sea battles in aok were more of an econ game than actually having the right ships (you only had galleon line units).AOK had a lot more variety: Galleons, Cannon Galleons, Fireships, Demolishion Ships, Trade Cogs, and the various upgrades to them all.AOM doesn't have trade cogs or demo ships. No water trade and no other "option" (demo ships) besides the paper-rock-scisors of Arrow > Hammer > Siege ship.EDIT: BTW, where did ES pull the "hammer" ship out of? Pretty historically inaccurate.

ZeZar Posted February 28, 2004 Author Report Share Posted February 28, 2004 Pretty historically inaccurate. Lol, yes Well, i guess naval battles in AoK was pretty ok, though i never got to play much, i always played Black forest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cassius Allanus Posted November 26, 2004 Report Share Posted November 26, 2004 A Norwegian not understanding naval warfare Actually, in AoK I love building 20+ Viking elite longships and then going raiding. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cassius Allanus Posted November 26, 2004 Report Share Posted November 26, 2004 Yes, but considering most of what I see that is the most interesting is in older topics, I have to start somewhere :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Argalius Posted November 26, 2004 Report Share Posted November 26, 2004 Yeah that's probably true and besides, this forum isn't very active all the others are but this one isn't. It will probably change when the game comes out though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZeZar Posted November 28, 2004 Author Report Share Posted November 28, 2004 Well, hehe, Scandinavians knows the sea. We (almost) INVENTED fishing. So its not because I'm from Scandinavia. It's simply because i dont like seabattles in RTS- games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cassius Allanus Posted November 29, 2004 Report Share Posted November 29, 2004 Sorry, I didn't intend on offending you. That comment was intended as a bit of a joke. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrazyThumbs Posted November 29, 2004 Report Share Posted November 29, 2004 I like highlands in AoK and in Empires DotMW and some water is good like a river dividing players or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Titus Ultor Posted December 11, 2004 Report Share Posted December 11, 2004 Highlands, by far. I hope 0 A.D. will have some sort of map without anywater whatsoever, though. Like "Plains" in EE. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I_Would_Say Posted December 16, 2004 Report Share Posted December 16, 2004 I don't like maps with resource screws, eg, Argh!!! The enemy has 5 gold piles in his town and I only have 1!!!! Of course, you could have like 5 gold piles and the enemy could only have 1... Then gold screws are good... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dnas Posted December 16, 2004 Report Share Posted December 16, 2004 I'm certain we'll be able to prevent those problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I_Would_Say Posted December 17, 2004 Report Share Posted December 17, 2004 I don't think you can prevent gold screws - randomness is never fair. Unless you are going make every seed map by hand, of course, it is impossible to my knowledge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Titus Ultor Posted December 23, 2004 Report Share Posted December 23, 2004 Can't you set parameters on random maps? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
