They said the workshop will support about anything. Map textures are incredibly easy to make(they are just PNG files) and things like unit responses or unit designs will also be workshop-able through DAT files(the ones the community have been modding for ever).

I suppose it might be possible to add a AoFE mod into the workshop, but maybe people should ask the devs about that. If it's possible, it'd be amazing.

I just think its sad that they talk about this and that has been updated etc, and I literally can only tell a difference when they specifically point it out.
Limited Edition, lets do some simple addition, $50 for a T-Shirt is just some ignorant bitch shit.

just to note matchmaking games will still have a 200 pop limit.

pop limits up to 500 were for non-mm games only from what i recall.

You can't tell the difference between 1920*1080 and 1280*1024? Difference between a square and a rectangle, back to school eh?

So with 8 players, the total possible pop cap went from 1600 to 4000.

That's a lot of units...

Age of Empire 1 and 2 were the first 2 video games I played. I think I'm going to buy that :D

Edit: 20$ is a little too much imo. 15$ was the most I could see it priced at, and that would be a def buy at 10$.
I wonder what is that multimonitor compatibility about. I have a dual monitor setup so if I could see a huge portion of the map with that it would be pretty sick :D

Must say, the graphical changes are.... minor, to say the least. That's not very impressive unfortunately.


I'm not exactly sure what you were expecting. I just imagined them reworking it a little bit so it looks better on a higher resolution and is doable on present systems.

I always expect HD remakes to use new HD sprites, which is what HD remixes on consoles have historically been all about. On PC though (Baldurs Gate Extended for example), it's basically just a resolution and widescreen fix. It certainly makes it look a bit clearer on modern computers, but I honestly don't feel this is worth calling something a remake over. Of course, there's more changes to this game, like the pop increase, matchmaking and such, but since it's called "HD edition", I feel it's natural to expect a decently big jump in graphics, which just isn't there.

I agree that calling this a HD remake is misleading. That said, the work of redoing all sprites into HD sprites, even if they're derived from 3D assets which they still own, is an insane amount of work that probably can't be considered feasible.

But again, allowing widescreen resolutions and basically just zooming out shouldn't be considered a HD remake, true, true.

Cute, you know exactly what i mean. The fact they had to point out the differences in fire/water means they didn't change much, not to mention they had some lower res widescreen resolutions built into the mother fucker.

That's why they're saying it's been remastered in HD, not remade in HD.

That launch video was pretty well-made, with exactly the right amount of nostalgia produced.

To be honest I am surprised more companies have not stepped up on the "retro" remake trend. It is a way to rehash tired IP in a "cool" way instead of beating dead horses.

A few things are improved, a few things worsened. If they introduce new flaws, they won't be cheered by me for that.

Dunno about this HD remake, but there is a fanmade expansion called Forgotten empires which does some rebalancing and you can find people on gameranger easily enough.

I want to play this game, but I haven't played AOE II in ages. Is there any site that teach you some basic play? I played some AOE1 :ROR recently though(since this game is still huge in Vietnam lol).
