Age of Empires and Age of Mythology Series

[Zygurt 12]

Ditto. So you all don't think I'm a slacker.

[Decroxx 815]

I never thought you were a slacker, I only thought you were a jerk

[Mr Spontaneous 143]

Planning on purchasing, expecting some epic RtD multiplayer matches when its released!

[Penchamus 411]

It will be crazy!

[MasterShrive 2,015]

I can't wait for the politics.

[Vulcan 98]

Rule #1: never EVER trust shrives in AoE. ie. never get involved in an alliance with him, never give him time to build a vast economic machine and never assume he has been defeated.

[MasterShrive 2,015]

Hey! I resent most of those comments. Except the last one.

 

This is going to be real interesting.

[Decroxx 815]

Don't trust Shirves. Check.

I'm good to go.

[Nath 98]

Funnily enough I'd trust him as an ally, but maybe thats cause im shit at it and i dont think he'd be that mean.

[MasterShrive 2,015]

All you have to do is bring home the elephants little brother. Then the world shall tremble.

[Blueberry 444]

Who else is going to run away with one villager and force everyone to search for him before victory is declared.

[MasterShrive 2,015]

That one villager can always turn in to much, much more.

[Phobos 1,209]

What was the max multiplayer's in a game? 8?

[MasterShrive 2,015]

Correct. With a max 200 pop cap. I assume that won't be changed.

 

AoM could allow 12, but it only had two map sizes which made it quite crowded. Harder to make a comeback in AoM as well because you can't just build a TC anywhere you want and there is a limit on houses available. Still very good fun though (and actually my preference to AoEII).

[Blueberry 444]

For me, AoE1 was the best. Having said that, i seem to be the only one who enjoyed AoE3.

[MasterShrive 2,015]

I think the setting didn't go well with me in AoE3. I did like some innovations, but not so much others.

 

I like the original (first game I was ever given, I've got the Gold Edition on my shelf still) but no gates was annoying though, lol.

[Phobos 1,209]

Well i picked it up, look forward to a weekend night doing this!?

[MasterShrive 2,015]

I'll be playing upon release if all goes to plan.

[Decroxx 815]

I'll be playing upon release sometime in the next 30 years if all goes to plan.

Fix'd.

[Mr Spontaneous 143]

So I recently figured out how to play Age of Mythology online. Here is the process:

 

1) go to http://www.voobly.com/ and download the client.

2) register on the vooby site.

3) run the client and log in

4) double click the AoM: TT lobby

5) it will update something

6) If the game is not installed at the default location (mine wasnt) it will run a diagnostic tool begin the diagnostic and apply fix by selecting the location of aomx.exe

7) click this to link then latest download the latest patch (1.03): http://www.voobly.com/games/view/Age-of-Mythology-The-Titans

8 ) run the patcher

9) try and enter a game again

10) revel in the awesomeness

[Phobos 1,209]

11) Wait for the Steam HD release with all it's perks

[Mr Spontaneous 143]

Age of mythology isnt on steam

[Penchamus 411]

Sponty and myself have tried and tested this. It works fine and has little to no lag.

[bprc 1,441]

Sponty, neither was AoEII before the HD release

[Mr Spontaneous 143]

I havnt heard of any plans for AoM HD on steam though. As AMAZING as that would be!
