Thanks for the feedback on the beta thread.

There will be a small patch by Friday addressing the following issues:

-Fixing late game AI expansion and worker spam
-Looking in to the ally crash bug
-Minimap Preview and possibly new HD Loading Screen

Ok I fixed it, you are supposed to type the player number not the color. It will crash if you type -ally blue instead of player 2 so I just fixed the quest to inform users the proper way of allying players.

Also I'm trying to get widgitizer to work properly to reduce map loading time, but it keeps screwing up some tooltips.

Looks interesting will test it and leave a review later.

Here is my review:


Age of War review:

BAD:

  • The Monk heal ability heals 0 hitpoint. And he continuely cast it to himself.


GOOD:
  • Lots of imported stuffs like units/building/icons you even have a imported tree and tiles.
  • Lots of upgrades that makes the game more fun.
  • AI supported.
  • Features like the squad captain is amazing, it reminds me of Samurai Warriors somehow.
  • Game also have lots of game mode, which is amazing for a RTS style of map.
  • The game is very balanced and well made.
  • The layout of the terrain is well balanced.
  • Tooltips are well-made, really gives lots of informations on the units being trained.


SUGGESTION:
  • A small suggestion, try to add flowers and other no-path doodads, it won't hurt you on the filesize bro.
  • Also find a better loading-screen, the low-quality animated loading screen that you're using doesn't fit the high quality gameplay of your map.
  • Mind increasing the goldmine' gold capacity? This map can be fun even you play it for 2 hours with you friend or with the ai. But the goldmine can't support that kind of long game.


My Rating: 5/5 and +rep

My notes: A well made map, that Reaper51 gives a lot of time to make. Good Job, and I'm hoping for future updates.

Well AI's are really good, as if you were fighting players but the problem is, they don't build walls and gates

Although sometimes, I get bored of the map though, but still great job!

ughh!!!! this map is crazy right now in the server i play , we need 6 player version now! xd

Unlikely that I'm going to update the map for 6 players.

Completely new terrains would be needed along with new game modes and triggers for battalions to make it available for 6 players (Which is the max possible).

Also tell me about the gate bug, or send me the replay.

What server are you playing on, I wanna join too : D

Not only if you forget to add the space, also if you type another word other than 1-4, it crashes (i.e. -ally alec, -ally josh)

Give a helpful reply please, a mistype leading to crash isn't justifiable by saying, "you're an idiot, type properly", a crash is a crash and it should be fixed. Saying what you just said is complete bullshit. Its the same as saying "don't play my map coz it has bugs." learn to actually do something about the bugs in YOUR map instead of giving rude stupid comments to your audience.

Can't, you gotta learn how to type properly :D

Are you serious bro? The guy was trying to help, yet you say "Hey Ocelot, learn how to type properly, before I try to fix that bug". So if there was this bug reported by some guy who types like this "i haz gotten a maj0r bugz", but it's true, you won't fix it? Now that's just not cool. You say he's gotta learn how to type properly, yet you typed your triggers wrongly creating this bug, I suggest you learn how to type better as well.

The trigger uses an integer since its needed to ally both the player and his computer counterpart.
Long story short; if you end up tying it wrong, it crashes idk why.
So for now just type the right way till I get it fixed.

EDIT

I got a terrainer working on a 6 player version of this map!

wow so much negative replies, dude you gotta fix your own crashes and don't rely on others adjusting to your game

Don't be insulting. If you can't type something as simple of this properly, you are really incompetent.

I can fix it. It's just returning an invalid player like Mech said, which crashes the game, the same would happen in my map, if you were player 4 on a 2 player map.
