I'm doing surprisingly well in this round of Age 2.
I'm inside the top 20 most of the time, and i dont have a clue how to play
I must be doing something right..
Although, i do think it is a lot easier to land, and AR is non-existant.
This isnt a rant about me constantly getting land raped, however i do think it is easier to do, in Age 2.
I miss the tooltips, and the calculations showing you how much £££ you will get from selling seeds, etc.
17.5% range is nice, as there arent many people playing, and a 30% cap would really restrict decent targets
Defending any id is nice, as its more realistic- in real life you could send defence to a country if they were attacked, and im sure they wouldnt complain
However this could cause problems with 'Super alliances' where over 30 people could technically be allied...
I think the Age 5 score method is fairer, because again, it is more realistic. I know that bush isnt the most realistic of games out there, but it makes for a better experience as false impressions could be given of a companies valuation in Age 2. Then again, its all part of the Age 2 game, right?
In short, bashing is worse, imo. thats my main gripe
I quite enjoy it though. makes a change from Age 5
I havent read any other posts, so this is purely my opinion.
edit: I also dont like the static timer :| i keep thinking its not ticked over, and then i find out i missed the tick all together. Fail on my behalf, but i would like to see the clock like Age 2
