To be honest, it looks like it's going to suck pretty much. Apperently they never visit our forums. Instead of improving gameplay and realism they make it like all other games. It looks like kind of civ city rome or even worse!
Ah well, I was planning to finish my mod anyway.

Sorry, I completely missed that thread!
Here are my first thoughts:
Pros:
- AoE has not been forgotten
- the next game returns to the most interesting age!
- the graphic style means that it won't look dated in years to come
Cons:
- It looks like a Facebook inspired game, which I think removes the competitive-ness of the current AoE series
- It appears that people who play it often are rewarded more (capital cities growing when logged out etc) - anyone play mafia wars vai facebook? Damn this makes it a real time-killer
- Those little cartoon guys killing each other takes the edge of the seriousness!
Note sure on what effect "quests" will have. Depends mostly on whether there is a editor to create your own stories.
TDA - better off locking this thread!
