After having sold over 25 million titles in the space of 13 years, the famous series of games real time strategy Age of Empires is evolving and changing today MMO. Taking up the heart of Age of Empires II: The Age of Kings and putting it in a persistent online world with developers of Supreme Commander and Dungeon Siege who attempt to give a fillip to the saga.
The first surprise at the outset: the title takes a cartoon aesthetic to Team Fortress 2! In reality, the choice of developers is not innocent. For besides the fact it is very pleasant, this style is not graphics-intensive resources and should help ensure that the game runs smoothly on any type of computers, including the less powerful. If adventure unfolds so today in a persistent world, the fact remains that the goal is still to build an empire and expand it over time. But before you do this, we must first choose a civilization, Greek or Egyptian (others should be available later), and then create a Capital that represents your HQ. It will live 24 out of 24, even if you are not logged online, since other players can visit at any time to make purchases in your shops and even to trade with you.
This is part of the social aspect as desired by the developers (you can even communicate with other players by sending emails). In reality, the way you develop your capital depends on your progress later in the game and the destiny of your people. This is obviously through it as you develop your economy and your technologies before your influence spread to the world and from its conquest. Moreover, it is important to personalize and customize this capital with multiple pavilions study. These are used to train counselors and to create equipment particularly useful to reinforce your units. Among the pavilions available, we can already identify in September to know the flags of architects, riders, hunting and craftsmen used to develop buildings respectively, mounted units, archers, and finally the villagers, fishing boats and carts. Also among the military academies and engineering relevant to the development of infantry and siege weapon and some boats. Finally, the great temple, in turn, can train priests.
