I was wondering, games after 1997 had units walk closer to each other to form groups when you tell them where to go. but here in age of empires 1 DE units stay the same format they were. so I pick 5 soldiers and tell them to go somewhere and they will keep the same distance from each other, they won't group together closer while moving to the location.

is there a way to fix this?

Hello there,

Okay to start, I have no tech-y experience whatsoever so I'm desperate for help on how to fix the definitive edition, I just want to play AoE but I just can't wrap my head around what's wrong with it and how to fix it. I can start the game through Steam and it pops up and it plays through the intro vids and opens to the main menu, the problems start then, when I open the drop down menus some of the background images disappear and they blend over each other and sometimes i'm left with complete black screens, and then when I try and run a skirmish the game crashes. What does that mean?!

I'm playing on a Dell Laptop, 64bit Windows 11, using an Intel R Pentium silver N5030 CPU processor, using a DirectX12 driver(?), and that's about it really?

Any help would be amazing, cheers folks

Yesterday I asked what the best beginner Civ is, due to the many great answers I got, I now want you to rank ALL Civilizations by your own preferences. And if you want you can explain in a sentence or two why you think about that Civ the way you do. Have fun I’m looking forward to your rankings 🥳

What are the best Civs to begin with ?

xarena.vn, https://ala-play.com/ free

https://ego-play.com/, https://gplay.vn/trangchu paid

ego and gplay have many players

gplay has a special tournament for non-professional gamers

My fiancee and I tried to play together but within 20 minutes we get out of sync errors.

We tried 6 different games and always we got that out of sync error.

Anyone got a solution?

I've AoE II D.E., and AoE II Conquerors. Both in PC, but the last one by Voobly. I don't really play ranked, and I'm pretty chill. If someone want to play, I speak Spanish, French and a little bit of English. Send me a message ! :)

Any tips for this one? By the time I get to the tool age, red immediately hits bronze and starts massacring me with chariot archers. I try to rush but my fast is never fast enough. Also when I try to convert the chariots my priest just dies. Playing on standard.

As in i have it in my librairy but when i click install it says erro: cannot gain acess to nécessary files or some shit?

How can i play let alone install it.

Sure ive not been using steam for a year or so

I've watched the pro scene in AoE 1 and it seems quite micro intensive. Is the game actually more difficult than the other Age games? Is the skill cap higher in AoE 1?

Is there a way to make the menu in the DE look like the original game? I already found a sound replacer. I would also like to see the original campaign animations again. Why did they not remaster those?

Hi guys, I've been trying to find it, but it seems to have completely gone. If anyone know where to find it, or still have it in your PC, please share.

Thank you so much!
