Guest Paladin Posted October 15, 2001 Posted October 15, 2001 Is it just me or is there more units in Age Of Empires 2.
JEDI_MASTA Posted October 15, 2001 Posted October 15, 2001 thats because in the demo there are only 3 tech levels there will b 4 in the final game:D
Guest crazy_dog Posted October 15, 2001 Posted October 15, 2001 Heh, heh, don't worry, there are more units than in AoK!
JEDI_MASTA Posted October 15, 2001 Posted October 15, 2001 yeah and i think there are more units in the first 3 tech levels than there are in AOK tc:D
Guest EMPIRESPLAYER Posted October 15, 2001 Posted October 15, 2001 isnt there like 50 aside? aslong as there good units and not waste of spaces like AOK's spear men..(OMG THEY WERE BALLS) well be fine:duel:
AoErat Posted October 15, 2001 Posted October 15, 2001 Spearmen were hardly a waste. There are about the same amount of units as in AoK. There are far more unit graphics, however. (each unit has an exact equivalent in every civ, just different gfx)
Eets Posted October 15, 2001 Posted October 15, 2001 In the GB demo, the population limit is set at 75. Once the full version comes out you can set it to whatever you want, up to 200.
Guest God Posted October 15, 2001 Posted October 15, 2001 i think e meant that there were more units avalible in aok including the last level. i think he's right. with out the chemistry units (bombard cannon so on) there wouldn't be. i do think there are less.
darthfergie Posted October 15, 2001 Posted October 15, 2001 1) 300 different types of units 2) All have different enough art and techs to make them unique 3) AoK had one basic art type and the buildings had 4 different art types 4) You have more ground units than AoK and then you have the added bonus of air units that add a whole new depth to the game 5) If you want more just wait till the X-Pac that is sure to come...
DarthTenor Posted October 16, 2001 Posted October 16, 2001 Yeah fergie I agree. I hope there will be an x-pack. But I don't know if it's just me but each civ really has a different feel. I'm not saying that really play all that differently (aside from the 4th level unique techs.) but has a certain feel, I played 2 games today both random and played each civ. With the different art sets I do get a sense of a different feel. For insatance using the rebels equivalant of the strike mech i felt that I had fast speeders that can hover the ground and go enywhere. (not that they can) With the Empire version it just feels different. I don't know why.
Lord JayVizIon Posted October 16, 2001 Posted October 16, 2001 darth tenor, maybe the force is strong in others? anyhow, i agree with aoerat, there are about 300 units total when you talk about graphics, but realistically i think there are the same number of units as is in aok. maybe there are a few more in swgb b/c of the jedi/bounty hunter thing as well as the air units but overall about the same.
Guest Darth_Nixon42 Posted October 16, 2001 Posted October 16, 2001 Maybe, But Lord JayVizIon, i think you'll find each races units different enough, within the graphics and the many upgrades each race will or not get. I bet you could tell the difference with a wookie grunt with (basically) all the up-grades, making them tough and strong. And a nancy boy naboo trooper with little upgrades, thus making him handle like a weaker unit. These are examples of characteristcs displayed in Movies and Books of the starwars genre. So in my opinion, yes it will have many more units than AOK.
Guest WC_heavyarms Posted October 16, 2001 Posted October 16, 2001 Lemme give you a comparison in ways of ships: there were four standard in AoK: Fire ship, galleys, demolition ships, and cannon galleons. There are now at least 5. Each one looks different too. Plus, they didn't need to make the es engine, that is why this is looking SO MUCH BETTER. They had more time for campaigns and making units, that means. There are also TONS you have no seen in the level 4 tech.
Guest EMPIRESPLAYER Posted October 16, 2001 Posted October 16, 2001 also lets not forget the hidden units that r in there somewhere for u to find and also when u build ur own map....the number of extra units in there is also quite large....
Guest Paladin Posted October 21, 2001 Posted October 21, 2001 I posted this thread. I meant including all tech levels in the finished product. Will they add more units besides the ones in the tech trees.
