>>253765me
>>253766>>253769>>254362Noice. It's a bit of a ways off but how about Sunday?
>>252372Whenever I try to play this game I just get raped by faggots who spam castles out the ass. What is the ACTUAL counter to this shit?
>>254571Sure.>>254592As in, castle drops? Be proactive and take initiative, dont let them land castles infront of your base, have army in the battlefield to contest the castles and kill villagers, do not be afraid to pull vills to build a fast tower to deny the castle.Alternatively, get a castle of your own.
>>254607It's more like they just turtle up and become impossible to penetrate. I don't know how to advance through the ages quickly enough and I'm unsure of what strikes a fair balance between building an army and ramping up my farm.
>>254608>It's more like they just turtle up and become impossible to penetrate.You have 2 options, go ham in rams, petards (if possible) with fuckloads of cavalry and infantry. Or play his game and try to keep up with the boom.>I don't know how to advance through the ages quickly enough and I'm unsure of what strikes a fair balance between building an army and ramping up my farm.If this is the case then I'm afraid it was an unbalanced match, if you cannot win whatsoever then you're simply not good enough, not being despective, you may have faced a guy with a couple hundred of hours and a lot more skills and knowledge.If this is the case, practice, practice and more practice, it's the good ol' remedy, train against the AIs or low ELO players by making lobbies.
anyone from euroland?
I may or may not host tonitet. celtfag

Epic, simply epic.
Grey AI was truly the MVP that game.Wonder if microsoft can code a "move middle" script. Would be kind of cool, y'know? As a joke, I mean.I think it'd be pretty funny.

So for the events do you have to do one like every few hours or something? I did one of the challenges and now it says next challenge in 7 hours and when I try to complete the terms of the challenges for the rewards it's not giving me credit
>>272003>literally tells you to wait X hours>heyyy guise is there like a wait time or somethin between events????You are a nice reflection of the braindead idiot that enjoys playing this garbage game.

How are Burgundians fair? Can we expect to see them nerfed? I'm not bitching about them, I play them and Huns and just feel like I'm being carried when I play Burgundians and I want to get ready to get knocked down a peg if that's what is coming the Burgundians way lmao.>Fast castle into Coustillier, Castle drop if unpressured, castle defense if pressured, if feudal or dark pressured just make the counter to hold em off and move the vils instead of taking them off stuff>Basic micro makes Coustillier's fucking unstoppable against even their supposed counters like Camels and Pikes, as long as you hit and run and dip out (preferably into castle safety) until the recharge it doesn't even matter if you micro individual units to get charges off>Keep booming, 2-3 TC boom depending on coustilliers while they keep the enemy busy>Imp>Upgrade coustillier and push the advantage>By this point if the enemy has let me get here unburdened I 95% have them by the balls and simply lack the man power to push the victory, I'm still in a good position even with pressure, though>Flemish revolution>I now have an army of 120 or so that literally nothing is going to stop short of mass onager behind fortified walls, and I'm probably already in the enemy base at this point>Even if I use flemish revolution to push back an offense, on a tiny map there's no way he can prep shit before my masses march into his base>Trebs in Imp if I really need siegeI literally feel like I cannot lose like this, at least not at this Elo (800, fucked about in multi for too long before I actually learned build orders lol)Am I correct in assuming Burgundians are fucking broken? Are they just broken in this skill bracket? Are they gonna launch me out of the hundreds and into the skill range where players can deal with it or am I getting smacked with the nerf bat? I literally can't imagine how you counter the enemy suddenly having 120-140 army when you have like 20-60
>>278517what game is this
>>278517I'd say you're just facing enemies that dont have the courage, and/or dont know how to pressure early.At higher ELOs, your strategy can easily be undone by extremely aggressive strats.
>>278729So this is just gonna take me straight to the ELO where people can deal with it?Should I ride the Flemish train to mid level elo town or should I focus on diversifying my strategy repertoire at this elo?
>>278739You're focusing on the wrong things.>should I focus on diversifying my strategy repertoire at this elo?Yes, but let me clarify, your whole post is based if all things goes according to your plans, you forget the fact almost all civs have 'the ideal plan', but the problem is that when the enemy throws a wrench into your plans and you're forced to answer and adapt. Anybody can follow a strategy and/or build order, but applying it in real competitive games is an entire different matter, and -nobody- will let you take control of the game unpunished, or if they do and you get away with it, they were bad players to begin with.You can follow any strategy or plan you want, that you actually are successfull with it, it's another matter.
>>278746I guess I just don't get how this doesn't go according to plan, then. Cause outside of a clincher rush that ends the game in dark or feudal I really don't see how I can't get the ball rolling on thisIm sure I will, I'm just genuinely not good enough at the game yet to understand how to counter my own strategy lmfao
>>279006I can see mass arbalests with halbs, or cavalry archers with camels fucking up late game. Burgundian army comp with Coustelliers.We can always do a match to test it out
>>278517They aren’t broken at 1500elo, though stomp on arena with a safe boom into gunpowder
>>279052I'd be down for that
>>280765I'm avaliable right now
>>280774sure in like an hour or something
>>252372Do any of you play the HD edition? My PC can't run Definitive. I can also play the original game on Voobly.
>>280853>My PC can't run Definitive
>>280853I actually do have HD and Definitive. I suck at the game though so It won't be much of a match.

Reminder for everybody: Do not fight into chokepoints against SOfags, hope you get hussars, bombard cannons and actively use staggered formation
Also get creative
holy shit, that game was tightwest taking the center, then east coming back, losing it but keeping their base just barely, returning for the center, and then the flanks catching them out, Norf, then Souf--then the counterflank--then the deadlock, but then pushing back the flanksgood fucking game, lads
>Flemish Revolution>Game keeps going and now I have to rebuild my economy
>>282313that was a brilliant fucking pushif the map was just a bit smaller we wouldn't have had the time to rebuild our defenses and you would've just walked on in
>>282313>Flemish Revolution>map has natural choke points and there is a SOfag behind wallsI don't know what you expected to happen lmao
>>282321Haha panic button go brrrrrrrrr
>>282321>>282323In hindsight, though, I would have saved it for pushing a flank
>>282326Man Tatar trebs with +3 range is fucking great
games rarely happen now because people got bored of getting shat on by the gaymastersimple as
mfw I bought the remaster but I only play the old HD edition because my friends have toaster PCs

The map "Arena."Six armies clashed on this one map, each refusing to back down. Each convinced it was in the right.From beneath the rice of Korea came the Siege Onagers; ancient machines bent on eradicating all life.But another evil had its eyes on the cube. From the depths of Japan the forces of the Shogun arrived to enforce their claim.
To oppose these fearsome powers-- --the cube's rulers in the Malay Empire sent their cheap soldiers and sophisticated low income housing into the fray
And last came the other 3 players. Finest and most uncompromising of /vm/ commanders. Seeing a map beset by neighbors and walls, they disregarded the hill to murder each other.The koth match had begun. It could only end with the total victory of one of these factions and the moral victory of all others.

I've been wondering, would it be a good idea to try to turn this into more of a general RTS LFG thread? There's a couple others I'd like to try to throw into the mix to see if we could get games for and doubt they would hold up super well on their own. But if that's too much of a clash of things I'm okay with not shoving them in here.In particular I'd like to try out some Broodwar and DoW2 Elite Mod but I could be dragged into CoH2 every now and then.TWWH2 matches never.
>>291999Yeah why not.Also I'm down to play Brood War
>>292006Sounds good, any other thoughts from anyone else?
>>292844I'm on the fence about this one, because I came here for aoe2 games. However I'm willing to give it a try to see how it goes
