@lakecityransom5 жыл бұрын
As Nate said, when the AI detects you are too weak it will just zerg rush for the kill. Getting an early army and eco booming well is key. You can't just sit around and boom until imperial though as the computer will begin throwing everything at you nonstop. It will just outplay you in micro spam, especially with a monk conversion death ball. If game goes into deadlock and imperial age, you'll have to castle/tower/wall creep and use trash units, siege catapults, and defensive monks for healing/conversions to overcome their blobs of spam. Then you need to immediately counter attacks with unit reinforcing as the CPU base has nothing but a castle or two aside from standing armies. They will likely control forward gold, relics and have trade carts between the AI so you can only abuse their stupidity. Also I think resources set to low really messes up their efficiency, they went too far forward early and he abused them with archers.

@youmukonpaku31687 жыл бұрын
Depends on the unique unit. Longbows, turtle ships, conquistadors, catapharacts, jannisaries, and samurai are all generally worth it, in my experience; even then, Jannies and Samurai are pretty situational and conquistadors are only useful because Spanish archers are laughable.
@maxmustsleep7 жыл бұрын
the easiest answer would be that you usually need to get to the castle age and build a castle to recrute them, which is a lot of cost and a lot of time to get there. You would have to have a long game, or a strong enough economy to build several castles to build many special units in a reasonable time. So i'm guessing, and from what i've heard most games end at an earlier point making them not a viable option in a large amout of games. It is true though that there are some very strong special units, like the conquistadores, longbow archers, plumed archers, or mangudai and weaker ones like axe throwers

Nice video and thanks especially for the good commends / explanations for why you did what. Btw. what I like the most about the Barbarian AI, is not necessarily that it is more challenging, but it is more human like. It may try to steal your boar, kill your weak villager with its scout, might fight back with its vills if it thinks it can beat you, gather from sheep pretty effectively, scout with sheep (although not as good as a human player), lure deer with its scout, but especially I think it adapts its counter units better to what you throw at the AI. With Userpatch 1.5 AI scripters even work on impressive drush micro and archer-micro vs mangonals.

Just a quick tip to improve your Dark Age timing: Don't "over force drop" the food. The time you lose when force dropping can make you not have the 50 food when you need to click to make your next vill. That is what happened several times during your dark age. If you start quickly collecting food, the vills will reach 10 food and drop on the town center around 9x% of the villager production for every villager cycle. I know that waiting for them to automatically drop can see dangerous or even give you the chills to force drop just ot make sure. Don't do that! Force drop continuously can make your efficiency drop significantly (at least in the beginning when those seconds really make a difference). If you force drop, those small seconds will build up and you will end up having to force drop every time, which will make you lose food and villager production time (not to mention that it open up the possibility to collect 49 food and have to start a new ship, which costs more time). If you really need to force drop food, you can pick up 1 or two villagers (not all the 6-7 on the sheep/boar) to even out the 50 food, therefore, you would not lose the dropping time of all them but only for a couple of vills which turns out will allow you to not to force drop every time.

I find the AI (on hardest) very vulnerable to Trushing. Especially if you build a tower close to the TC. It garrisons and ungarrisons all villagers in an endless loop until the villagers are all dead. For some reason the TC only garrisons the villagers and attacks your tower if you attack the TC, not if you attack the villagers around the TC. I actually consider that a bug in the AI, since it get stuck in a loop of garrisoning it's villagers 'cause it's being attacked and ungarrisoning them 'cause it needs resources. You should definitely check that out.

Hey man. Enjoying your videos a lot. Have a couple of ideas to do a research on. First - which I now just did - how to place towers, and about their radius (and about all ranged units in general) - how tiles are calculated. I figured that tower with 8 range shoots the target which is st 12 o'clock, and three tiles to the left at that range and three tiles to the right - that's theoretical, because I haven't had time to study it in practice, just on graphics. Towers which has +3 range in that theory hut the target in 11 radius located at 12 o'clock, and four tiles to the left and four tiles to the right. Its probably that if radius covers more than a half of the tile, it hits the target there, and if radius doesn't cover more than a half of a tile - it skips he target. But that's theory, would be really cool to see it in one of your videos. Second thing is more elaborate, and while I was writing about towers I came to think that's its irrelevant. thanks so much for ur quality content!

I love this guy and his random comments. It's like my type of humor, to talk seriously about something and then you add some wacky comment that comes from nowhere.

He probably means that he’s probably more interested in game mechanics than actually playing the game hence he said ”as a player”

Motivated me to re-install AoE II, and I've lost twice to standard AI now... thanks a lot, SPIRIT.

Very cool. I could never be any good at this game, I'm always watch things build and techs research, trying to keep everything alive and at 100%. Easiest AI is sort of my speed.
