All I cared about in that game was Teal not winning. it's not even for being a bully as ever commie game has one. It was being a liar the whole time and I hate to see that. The whole "Red & Purp attacked me for no reason", I hate it, I hate Teal. So happy when he died.
Technically the colours on the minimap are all primary colours: red, green and blue, cyan in the minimap or aqua in gameplay, magenta, yellow and black or grey in gameplay... so teal is cyan or aqua. That's why I hate teal; it's an imposter on all accounts, lying about its identity from the offset.
If red and purple said so in all chat that teal is trying to king snipe them then i don't think the others would support teal, diplo plays a big role with that many players.
@@gtfogoogle1393 And later on he played grey against the others, to then have a reason to walz grey! Paul really playing those nobility intrigue games!
I have a little pet cockatiel and my favorite thing is watching her happily and excitedly fly up to my friends who are meeting her for the first time and the people who are afraid of birds always get so terrified, but she just flies onto your shoulder and smiles at you
Sharkatzor was actually in the files in the Rise of the Rajas expansion for HD, but wasn't used until DE launched. The cat was named Fluffy and was owned by a Forgotten Empires Developer. (Not sure who.) Sadly, Fluffy died on July 3rd 2023. Much much like Stormy, they shall live on forever in this immortal game.
"Can we get some music for this?" **GMOD body ragdoll slapping sound instead** 19:00 Bro that broke me the out of left field gmod sound got me laughing
The stormy dog has actually appeared in a number of other games, the one off the top of my head is the original Zoo Tycoon used the stormy dog sprite as eye candy that would pass overhead. I think several other games published by Microsoft also used the stormy dog sprites. The original trees in aoe2 also show up all over the place in Microsoft games of the era.
Before T90s guess: 71 elephants. EDIT: Wow, very close to T90s 73. I'm assuming based on runtime this game picks up and elephants get too tricky to multitask. Had that advantage in knowledge. SPOILERS: EDIT 2: Never got that final count haha but sometimes family takes priority. Totally underestimated the lack of resources by the end. On that note, loved the map, but thought more wood was needed. Like an increase in wood percentage and birds, if this turned into a more regular diplo game, they'd been out of resources before the fighting started. Good call on green winning. I think he was the best player, but blue really new what he was doing in terms of a community match. Could you copy/paste some generic instructions to the players on basic communication tips / hot keys? Poor grey, like many others, never stood a chance. Keep up the good work T90.
16:00 - I'm guessing there will only be 3 elephants by the end of the game because players will create a few monks to heal the villagers and keep hunting them.
Ill say 2 lol I think really players will completely ignore the elephants really soon but they may also take military fire from siege so a more likely number would be around 25 haha
Good Game! It was very even in terms of resources so the top players attacking the lower player in the score board was not bad. At least until the part I watch so far, 33:00.
So the reason things spawn more in the middle, if you wonder: Each bird probably has a chance to explode every second. This creates exponential decay. Look up: Exponential distribution. Also, birds fly in a random direction. This means; the closer to the center, the smaller the radius of a circle 360 degrees. That means a smaller area, more resources == more concentration. I'd estimate resource intensity to follow f(x) = c*e^(-dx)/x, with c,d constants. This means the worst place to go is the corners, where you won't get many resources. The best place to TC up is next/near to the center.
"paul has a plan, and ppl comming into the game not knowing what to do loves to follow him, and they just want to survive" d@mn sums all the real world problems right here.
So sad that you missed blue's backdoor castle on red, so much went on red base while you focused on the fight with purple. That's also why red was distracted during the battle. Castle started building around 38:20
Recently stumbled into this channel. Grew up playing aoe and aoe2. Glad to see there’s a big community still out there and would love to jump back in. Any recommendations on PC specs for best play experience?
The main recommendation is to make sure you get Definitive Edition and not HD Edition. They're the same price on Steam, so it's easy to get them mixed up.
the emperor in a barrel is just a renamed trade cart with a few exceptions 1 the cart uses reverse sprites when its full of gold it is empty when its returning to get gold it appears full the emperor cart is not affected by the market upgrade so its just a slower trade cart
I once made a forest nothing map for rise of rome, sadly nobody plays it (farms are enabled in first age, civ list with heavy catapults included in the description)
I want to see another take on this idea. nothing nothing when you build buildings resources spawn around the building is its like a lumber camp mill or mining camp and random other things from the other buildings from units to wild animals
Unsure if its been answered yet, but Emperor in a barrel is Fredrick Barbarossa pickled in a barrel to preserve him, so he could be buried under the Dome of the Rock in Jerusalem. He had waded into a river with his armour on and drowned which led to the crusade disbanding.
Here in Microsoft we also have a Cat riding with Windows flag on a unicorn, its oretty popular internally. I think there is a version of cat riding a dino also
If anybody asks you the 'favourite bird' question ever again, you can either say chickens (technically birds and delocious) or pinguina (technically birds and cute. Don't know about taste.)
bird nothing, more like elephant nothing... I'm also very surprised that in a map called bird nothing there was not one single corner bird for T90 to look at

A sentiment T90 feels about so strong he said it twice within the first 10 minutes.
"If they do explode, it's for a good cause"
-T90, 2023 (a few seconds after)
Ironically, T90s can help with that.
"You won't catch me standing too close to birds." Another priceless quote from our favorite doofus.

Paulhockey: walzs into purples base with army
Also Paulhockey: Help team purple is attacking me, I'm the victim!!
Honestly, Teal deserved the win for that. The others backing him when he was the one to break the peace was a hilariously bad decision on their end.
*waltzes?

He deserved to win for being a laughable liar? What?

19:15 , masterful edit Hardy
Teal was the biggest liar in the game. He attacked people but claimed that they were attacking him to get everyone on his side.
Easily the best diplo player of the bunch.
Lol sounds like what the people of gaza are doing
@@anything.with.motors do you have special needs?
I guess we can call miss T90 a bird knocking the window at the end for the perfect ending.

Legend says Norvel still playing the game
Can confirm, he's still there living with the last few elephants
birds are resource drones irl too
can confirm. shot a dove this season corn came out

Birds aren't real, they are government agents 👀

Hardy's editing was hilarious this game!
"What's your favorite bird ?
T90: - stormy dog"
I was filled with so much joy the moment Teal died. Such a good payoff
We never saw how many elephants remained at the end of the game 🥲. But hopefully T90 made a speedy run for the door to let in his better half! 😅
Those team-up attacks on Red and Purple were so senseless. I'm glad they held as long as they did. And yellow's snipe was great.
My favorite players were red, purple and yellow.
They stick together till the end ❤
33:50 nothing better than a t90 camel 🐫

35:31 The sudden silence stands out
Teal getting away with lying about being attacked by purp and red is the highlight of this tbh
Shouldn't T90's favourite bird be a chicken? ;]
I’m listening while cooking and I nearly cut my finger off when the rugby went down 😂
When you're crowned Bird Nothing.
33:49 T90 sounds like he's fluent in camel language
Wow, what an amazing snipe from Yellow.

I love this game to bits. Hope it never dies.
Bird nothing is best nothing.
Can't wait for cobra car nothing!
16:20 my guess is about 30 elephants remain at the end, maybe 32 so its not a round number.

33:50 important moment
Haha, love that someone asked about T90 watching AFL. Go Pies.
its clearly a reference to the award winning 2010 film Birdemic:Shock and Terror
Great example why Exploding Kings is necessary

Looks like it's not that high. I would check Steam for the official specs, but googling it also gives useful information.
AoE 2 runs on a potato, as the Steam page for it will show you. For multiplayer, your internet connection ping (not speed) is much more important.
you can play aoe2de on pretty much everything that runs other multiplayer games without problems.
The main recommendation is to make sure you get Definitive Edition and not HD Edition. They're the same price on Steam, so it's easy to get them mixed up.
I'm getting second-hand anxiety watching this 😂I have a lot of respect for these players managing to make it look so smooth.
The legend says Nerval is still sitting in the game
13:50 The shoebill stork
Finally, a map that lets us Bird Up (jingle plays)
Wait did he never say how many elephants were left??? I must have missed it 😭
He didn't! Sadness.
It was at 28 the last time he checked, very close to the end (1:11:50)
Because of fiancee stuff.
T90: "UA-cam will just skip to the end to find out how many elephants are left."
Well played, T90. We can't guess if you never tell us the answer.
Re: 16:34
I think there will be 44 elephants left over at the end of the game.
Birds evolved from dinosaurs, and they know it and lash out at the world in revenge.
16:00 Guessing that there will be more than 10 elephants remaining, but less than 30.
Sir Walrus had the 200 IQ move. Amazing.
Another corner stone moment in all of humanity realising that birds aren't real.
> brid nothing
> take about the dog for 20 minutes

I'm guessing 35 Elephants left standing.
Perfidius Paulhockey!

Bird nothing quickly became Elephant nothing lol

Relic Nothing, when?
Imagine a tournament called Tournament Nothing, using the various nothing maps. 😂
Red and Purple reminded me of the Starks and Tullys in Game of Thrones. Helps red was vikings.
This is the exact kind of wild shenanigans type of game that I think of when I think of community games. Love it!
the emperor in a barrel is just a renamed trade cart with a few exceptions
1 the cart uses reverse sprites when its full of gold it is empty when its returning to get gold it appears full
the emperor cart is not affected by the market upgrade so its just a slower trade cart
Gotta love them map corner buildings. xD
I now hold the incredibly well informed opinion that my cockatoo is smarter than T90.
BIRD UP
I’m guessing 60 elephants left by the end
I once made a forest nothing map for rise of rome, sadly nobody plays it (farms are enabled in first age, civ list with heavy catapults included in the description)
16:42 - I think 51 eles by the end
T90, you clearly never walked near a Indian peafowl. Those things are amazing to watch

Two towncenters at the beginning!? Thats a massive boon!
You are one hundred percent correct about birds, t90.
Dear god, what is this fresh new nothing hell?
ROFL! The ending is special!
Thats how ladder games should work! :D
Good match. I thought Green had it for sure. but Blue's eco just outlasted him

Unsure if its been answered yet, but Emperor in a barrel is Fredrick Barbarossa pickled in a barrel to preserve him, so he could be buried under the Dome of the Rock in Jerusalem. He had waded into a river with his armour on and drowned which led to the crusade disbanding.
