When repairing unlocked pallisade gate with vils, they might go more closer to the center of the gate which make them vunerlerble to enemy melee units. Lcoking gate will help viliagers to stay on safe side of the gate.

Locking gates can be used to verify if there are not any gaps in the wall.

[@AgeofNoob]

Niche use case, but fair point! Gaps in walls are much tougher to happen in AoE4 than they did in AoE2

[@soythelubu5389]

How about gaps in age 3 walls? Those were so comiclly comon no body use them

[@weredraco]

Good way to check if you walled to a wood line and the opponent used a vil to cut the tree instead of attacking the wall, thereby bypassing your walls without alerting you to their attack.

[@JimCullen]

I believe the gate locking is useful for preventing units from getting kited outside, or preventing villagers from going outside to chase resources once they're finished with their current woodline/gold pile.

[@TheArmchairHistorian]

You may want to lock your gate if you don't want your merchants taking a shortcut through one of your open gates. That's the only thing I can think of though.

[@Ipherix]

I believe merchant payload is calculated as the crow flies, that is, a straight line from pickup to dropoff. Making obstacles just makes it take longer to get the same amount of resources. My info might be dated though. It's stated at about 1:10 in this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rKDdq4yfia2CY7c

[@AgeofNoob]

Good to see you here Armchair Historian! A fan of your videos my friend. As far as I know - and as Max Ross mentioned - the trip taken doesn't matter; only the distance between the two trading structures. :)

[@HallsteinI]

​@@AgeofNoob I guess it might be useful for 'traffic shaping' for lack of a better term. Maybe you want your merchants to take a path that's safer and away from enemy attack.

Didn't expect to see you here, would be interesting if you cover the stories in the campaign I'm hour future videos if you hadn't already

[@iyziejane]

Locking gates can be useful to stop AI teammates from building in your town. Also in a human game with diplomacy, you may not want your ally to be able to enter your gate while friendly and then turn on you once their units are inside.

[@tubebrocoli]

there's one extra caveat with placing the gates the wrong way: you gain nothing from it if you have stone towers on the walls, since those need to be pointing where you want to fire and also have stairs down to their back anyway

[@con_boy]

It's usually better to make two or even three towers in a u shape section. Effectively a mini square inside ur wall. I know it's lame but I use stone walls quite a lot as the English if it's late game imperial, cos we have very little else. Walls and longbows. I build frixkkn motorways round the map sometimes. So u get kind of inventive

[@Choco-sk2gj]

@@con_boy Can you explain the U Shape thing a bit more please? Is that purely for a defensive thing where you have 3 towers in a U shape , one bottom, one left part of U and one right part of U so they have to come near a choke point of sorts? Sry may be a dumb question just curious how it works

[@con_boy]

@@Choco-sk2gj I do it in their base in imperial, I play English, I make like spaghetti noodle patterns into their base, usually with a castle at start and usually near the market if they are trading.. I don't do it every game but I do it if its pop200 sort of stalemate.. we're both maxed out trading pushes. Every time I do it it works.. I make like sky motorways for longbow blobs and use towers both sides cos they do boiling oil plus springald and can be built from top of wall ... I do it when I have about 3 or 4 relics and if I have 32 farms with emplacements.. you don't need hardly anyone on gold cos u can amass 10k food in minutes and just trade but you're also on 1k gold per min passive anyway.. no vills.. anyway back to walls .. cos I twist and turn them and make junctions I ended up putting towers both sides cos I have like huge amounts of stone.. and I can spare like 20 villagers in a pull cos I don't really need them (I.e. don't just delete them, since English don't really need huge vills on gold, just wall the hell out of the enemy base and let them die being useful) but what you found is by twisting and turning and towering both left and right and putting longbows on the walls you can do insane damage and as part of this I realised 3 towers with boiling oil is INCREDIBLY hard to seige down.. I.e. just close the loop ans make a square of wall and tower the edges.. with 20 or 30 vills it goes up crazy fast and its very very quick motorway building. You can cross the screen in like almost a minute.. you need a gazillion in stone but as I say, some civs don't need many on gold

@@con_boy Ty for the info. I really enjoy the wall building gameplay as well. Really fun mechanic especially since you can put people up the ramparts. I tried the lane thing as well an sometimes found that if you build the first section, then a gate, you can then put your villager on the top of the rampart and they'll continue building the lane but from the top of the wall as they keep progressing.

[@sephirothbahamut245]

With locked walls the enemy can't bait your units to go outside

[@xatel_3914]

There is already Stand ground for that "V" command

[@cybersteel8]

You would lock your gates so your own units don't go outside and fight, I guess. I don't know if you noticed, but the gate has a little door behind the gate that is the entrance to the adjacent wall. Rotate the camera and zoom in, you'll see the little door. This little door is also visible on the other side of the wall TOWER. That means that if you place your wall towers facing inwards, the door is facing outwards, and thus enemy units can walk up onto your walls too. If your tower is facing outwards (the correct way) then your units can use the door from inside your base to get up on the wall and fire down. Might be worth making a short about because the little door is the indicator here and the logic applies to both.

[@AgeofNoob]

I will be making a video about the Wall Towers as well - stay tuned! :)

[@evansteer9038]

So the direction for a pallesade gate is so units can go through the little tower doors? That's awesome.

[@NemicoSurami]

You forgot to mention that if you have a backwards gate and a forward stone tower, infantry can run right through the wall by going up the wall and down the tower stairs.

[@NeinStein]

Or another gate nearby facing the other direction.

[@Zyhmet]

locking gate: In the campaign I had a few games where I locked the gates so my new units wouldnt rally through the enemy base to my waypoint. Locking all gates was simpler than shift queuing the waypoints

[@cognitivedisability9864]

Lol i had on auto subtitles: apperantly you are playing 'Edge of Vampires' 🤣

[@semi59o]

If you have two stone gates on different direction at the same wall, then your walls will be literally useless against enemy infantry.

[@EgnachHelton]

Not quite. You can build a gate normally then behind it build a gate the other way around and connect the walls. This way enemy units cannot climb into your wall without siege tower and those who did via siege tower cannot get inside the inner wall.

[@alexanderschulz2100]

@@EgnachHelton exact

[@evansteer9038]

I feel you guys are actually both correct in my perspective. I feel one of you is saying build a circle wall with two opposing gates, one at opposing sides of the circle, not allowing any infantry penetration. But the other perspective is that if you have a straight wall with one gate inward and one outward, yes. Infantry can enter one gate, walk along the wall and exit the other gate into the enemy town. Making the wall effectively useless.

[@AleksanderDrako]

I though it would work more like in Stronghold games. - Gates auto-lock for when enemy is too close. (in this case, maybe auto-open for your units) - When opened, anyone can enter. - Walking on top of gatehouse by enemy gives them control over the gate. Your units and/or allies recaptures the gate to the owner.

[@gabrielbaieel8073]

It would make total sense... i mean they are in The walls but can open The door? Wfk This mechanic would bring a new level of invade operations.

[@felixmann20]

Had a game yesterday where my mate was sieging down a ram from on top of stone walls with 2 vills. The ram retreated, the vills went out the gate and got massacred. Would have been great to lock the gate :)

[@Lucius_Chiaraviglio]

One thing not shown here, but strongly implied: Don't build a stone wall that has both a gate facing out and a gate facing in!

Don't the towers you build have a stair case units can go down thus making it so they can go up an inward gate and down the tower staircase?

Quick tip: duble wall with 2 gates pointing in different directions and you have the bonuses of each

The locked gates works for your allies. Locked gates means your allies (human or computer A.I) cannot enter them but unlocked lets them walk through it freely. So if you want to troll and lock your mates in, GG LOL

Thank you for the recapping and summarizing at the end for those of us with short term memory, ADHD, dyslexia or other learning disabilities.

[@letswaveabook3183]

what you could do is something what was called a killing field for medieval castles. Namely have an outer wall and upon entering trough the outer gate, you would end up in a small walled area, where there was a second gate. If the outher gate is pointed outwards, your opponent can't mount the wall without siege tower in AoE4 and if then the inner gate is pointed inwards, the enemy can not get in the town once they are on the walls.

[@astrid2432]

best strategy: making two layers of stone wall, one with facing in your town and the other to the enemy.

[@TheHotrod03]

[@adamjohnsonstudio7910]

1. There are lots of times when I don't want an AI ally to path through a certain way or attack yet. 2. A certain route can be temporarily made unsafe for trade units and created units headed to their rally point. Locking gates can be a good way to redirect traffic Also, you didn't cover wall towers. Like gates, the side you put them on makes a difference and they are used to man walls, though I don't know what all enemy units can do

Main reason why you need locked doors : To keep your Teammates inside your walls, so they have to stay.

So the direction of palisade gate is the first ever pure decoration thing in the series.

[@Marth667]

That is certainly one way to put it 😅

[@ArawnOfAnnwn]

More like the designers just used the same Gate code for both types of walls. It just doesn't serve a purpose for palisades since you can't mount them, but it saves dev time to just use the same code for both.

[@ArawnOfAnnwn]

Btw, there's plenty of purely decorative things in the series. Map terrains feature a lot of purely visual stuff (that has no gameplay impact) for instance. Like little shrubs and rocks and stuff. There's even mods to remove it in previous games, used by some pros.

[@AgeofNoob]

OR it could be a bug, not sure tbh. Since it's a part of the game, they could introduce a patch where palisade gate directions might matter in the future.. :)

[@TonysRacing600]

I could imaging that you could man Palisade gates in the future as the seem to have little arrow slits visually (or that feature was planned during development but scrapped)

[@bobxbaker]

something i've been thinking about regarding walls, when and where do you really want to build walls? for example walls keep cavalry and other raiding units out, but outposts are pretty good for saving your villagers and also adds a static form of defense that can fire back which walls don't do on their own, so i don't know which is really more beneficial than the other. the other thing is walling next to forests or around forests, if you wall next to some trees you don't need to build as long of a wall, but that means you don't want to chop at those trees either later because it would ruin your wall. and what do you do, do you make a rudimentary walling close around your base and then wall in new sections for further building expansions later on? or do you wall further away from your base so you have room to expand within but make it more difficult simply because you made the wall too far away and way too big to defend several points of the walls at the same time? i'm really not sure, but i'm gonna try walling the unit producing buildings and farms and let wood and gold and stone be protected by outposts and keeps because it feels like those things can protect themselves without the need of a wall, sure the villagers will be more prone to raiding but that's just how it is gonna be in some cases, but some key walls in some chokes could help i guess in some instances if there are good opportunities for that. but yeah, walls, they are obviously useful, but when and where?

[@Ennocb]

Securing a backwards woodline from raids. You don't need to fully wall around, just deny certain paths to redirect foes to where your defenses/units are. Delhi used to wall sacred sites with military units early on maintain control for a little longer. I have used short wall segments to sneakily deny/reroute enemy trade in the late game to starve them of gold while applying pressure.

[@weredraco]

While very common, the only issue with walling to a wood line these days is that players are now cutting the trees down to bypass your walls without alerting you, sneaking their army past your defences rather quickly...

[@Echolaliaxu]

Make two layers, outer gate faces inward, inner gate faces outward. This way, you can render siege towers useless for double the stone cost... Only to see your opponent break your walls down with trebuchets and bombards.

[@RockZerr]

strange thought the whole time i thought enemys can go through atleast from the inside out. Hopefully they change that at some point because this would make much more sense and make building gates the wrong direction useless.

[@WaIdfritzchen]

I use locked gates to manage the pathing of my units in lategame towards waypoints, so they don't run near enemy castles etc

[@Grothgerek]

0:55 I'm not sure if his is a bug, or intended. Because if the idea is, that you can't build gates without walls, then building gates on top of a nonexisting wall (and then deleting the sections) would result in a gate without walls.

[@AgeofNoob]

But there's an easy solution to that - if you delete the nearby wall foundations, the gate foundation should auto-delete itself as well. This is much more intuitive than have to instruct your villagers twice every time you want to build a wall section with a gate on it. :)

[@kskers9816]

Thank you so much for the explanation, i got so confused by the directions. The game doesnt even tell you anything for some reason

[@AgeofNoob]

Glad you found it useful my friend! And yeah, we have to test many things ourselves to find out the hidden details and mechanics unfortunately..

[@hookedonphones1681]

Locking stops your military from leaving the walls. Otherwise they will pursue beyond the walls to continue attacking. Locking allows for intelligent unit pathing, pathing you wouldn’t get by standing ground.

[@MarcRitzMD]

I wish it could somehow be used to trap enemies inside your walls for an ambush sort of situation.

[@graemes8187]

i think its still more value forcing your enemy to invest in siege towers and spending time pushing them up to your walls

[@Izlandazi]

Hey Dude, thanks for the vid! Although, there is one thing you might consider placing walls inwards. People like to build two or more gates close to each other to get their armies through quicker. If that is the case, you want them all to face the same way. Because as soon as you have two gates close to each other facing different directions, the wall is basically useless against enemy infantry. They can enter through the gate facing inwards, climb the wall and exit the gate facing outwards to get inside the walls.

[@Interprestor]

Locking gates is also useful for guiding the pathing your reinforcements will take. You can of course set shift-rally points but this is time consuming and takes my attention away from the fight where I ideally have reinforcements coming in just behind the actual fighting. Locking gates has proven to be a quicker solution.

[@jaywasd]

So the best way to build a stone wall is a gate facing inward on the main wall and then another small circle of stone wall around that with a gate facing out. That way to get on your wall they have to use a tower but they still won't be able to get into town.

[@MrBardun111]

U can shoot with siege units thru open gate. Not sure if u can with close gate aswel but could be nice mechanic to implement in the game to not alow units shoot each other thru closed gates.

[@michaelcoalson]

Does this mean a gate "airlock" so to speak would be the best play with stone walls? One inward facing gate connected to an outward facing gate on either side? The worst a siege tower could do is deploy units onto your walls, they would not be able to go anywhere other than the airlock you built?

[@crossbowcarrol4408]

If you build a stone tower it will make a door behind the walls on the opposite side that footmen can use to go up and down the walls

[@johnleaver4272]

This is why I use Palisades inside my stone walls

[@Stelphy876]

How about Rams? does a locked gate have more defense or armor against a gate that is facing wrongly? Like if you would ram a gate from the inside, would it go down easier?

[@tavish1658]

6:12 You would then essentially be giving the enemy a free wall to use against you. I don't think that should be recommended, just to prevent siege tower invasions.

[@tb124.gaming]

If you have towers on your wall, than just put your gates “normally”, because enemies can climb in from the towers :)

[@Stormfox93]

Okay, but what if you have a section enclosed by stone walls and have one gate pointing inward and one gate pointing outward. Is the enemy able to move up the walls using the locked gate that is pointing inward and then move down from the walls using the locked gate that is pointing outward?

I had an issue where the stone gate facing inward would not let war elephants through.

[@khalidgagnon8753]

2-rows of walls.... The inner wall has a gate pointing the correct way, the outer wall has a gate facing backwards..... (Such a tactic only useful on choke-point maps, but I digress)

Cost is the reason....

[@khalidgagnon8753]

Also, workers like to take the shortest route: locking a gate ensures they don't go places where they could die.....

[@bdbgh]

Personally I've only fought with the A.I, but walls are weak enough to just send a bunch of rams to knock it down and wreak havoc on the structures inside with the rams. I've never found a situation where it's better to use a siege tower instead of rams so far.

[@AgeofNoob]

Indeed, Siege Towers are quite niche, and most folks would opt for the Rams!

[@IorekMetal]

Well it can be useful in some scenarios, for example, getting silent group or raiders through a distant wall or when all is heavily guarded in one point and you can just storm the walls with your units and then go down from there.

[@HenryElfin]

It's funny how age4 managed to make siege tower even more useless than age2 where it can be a meme strat for arena

[@TonysRacing600]

As soon as you got Arena game modes in Age 4 it will be the same there

[@HenryElfin]

@@TonysRacing600 not really. Siege tower in Age2 gets you to the other side, with archer or janissary rush it's quite useful. Age4, gets you stuck on the wall and probably can't do much until you knock the wall down, might as well just build rams there or you lose all your troops

[@Marth667]

Yet another reason why siege towers should be removed from the game. They're absolutely useless and besides everyone sieges down walls rather then the risky play of siege towers.

[@ArawnOfAnnwn]

How does the game benefit from removing them? Even if they're niche, you're just raining on the plays of the few who use them for no real benefit to anyone else. Also walls themselves aren't meta atm, but that may change in future. And if it does Siege Towers may start seeing some more use than currently. They certainly have a lot more use here than in AoE 2, as there are advantages to getting your ranged units on top of a wall (a mechanic that AoE 2 doesn't have at all).

[@NamelocTheBard]

They really need to give them a mechanic to allow ranged units to fire from them. There's absolutely a purpose, which is delivering infantry quickly to a position where they can harass the defender (which is very effective when you micro properly), but most players (myself included) are much more comfortable with the tried and true method of busting a hole in the wall.

[@SamuraiHonor]
