age of empires 3 (1 Viewer)

yes, its out tommorow.
i just tried the demo, mmm seems ok but i still prefer the interface of aok. aoe3 seems to of lost half its buildings and units from the 20minute game i played.
the mini map is now on the left side and its annoying , and to get food you have to kill pretty cows :'( they are so cute.

question; do you think you will have to pay to play it online like wow?

after playing the demo i now don't want to buy it. if you buy it leave some feedback for potential buyers like myself. i dunno it seems aok can never be defeated in the series of age of empires and all other strategy games i have played. just my opinion.

i think (or i know ) that the only reason that AOK will remain unrivalled is that the europe/asia landmass contained more compeition and comquering: america was a race between spaniards, british, and indians (to stay alive)

that could also be the reason y a heavy amount of units have been reduced: i dont think persia was shipping elephants to america at the time

the home base thingy also reminds me of the god powers in AOM: not good enough for a guarantee from mee, but still worth a try nonetheless

A warning:

Having played (& finished) the full version (and being big on RTS), it gets surprisingly boring after a while.

similar thing can be said about age of empires 2. its kinda boring playng against the computer. but once u start playing online against real people and form clans and stuff it makes trhe game so much better

I dont care if people say it is bad! i'm getting my tax refund and using part of it to buy this game!

 

[SashatheMan]

i went to an Ebay store in the city and the guy said they are getting the game in on thr 10th. i dotn knwo if its true for other stores. but they didnt have it

campaign isnt the best (was expecting historical stuff)...
though somehow cant be bothered playing this one multiplayer.. just dont feel like it

Yeah, i've been playing retail AOE3 for a few weeks now (thankyou filetopia!)

I think it's fairly awesome, the experience/level based concept is something blizzard has been pwning at for YEARS AND YEARS! AOE3 finally caught on, for a fairly enjoyable game. But it requires fairly massive specs to look really sexy- i love hammering native indians with howitzers! watch those cannonballs rape someone, then roll down a hill into a river and disrupt a passing turtle! ITS AWESOME!

Still..... WoW and Wc3 are the two greatest games of all time (oh and D2 of course). and NOTHING will evre change that. not even FEAR, which is equally koo as AO3.

 

[SashatheMan]

u cant compare fear and aoe3. its totally different genres of games

my friends already play multiplayer for aoe3. i hate campaigns an computer ai in age of empires...really wanted to know multiplayer. my friends are all like 'yeah best game ive played in ages...' blah blah blah they just want me to buy it

AoE III was just boring, I didnt even finish the first campaign before I stopped playing.

 

[The_highwayman]

I think the sims is a fun game, so i dont think boredom will be a problem for me

the sims is possibly the most boring game known to man kind :| ive never played something so dull ever.

 

[Enoch]

the sims has no point...no objective...and u dont gain anything from it...and also its too slow and gay....

That sounds exactly how Age Of Empires III is.
