#AGE OF EMPIRES 2 VS 3 UPDATE#
On the whole, this is an excellent update which I believe will please lapsed players looking to return to an old favorite, as well as new players who are curious about a genuine classic.Īge of Empires 2: Definitive Edition is out now on Windows PC. AI enemies are less likely to feel like they’re cheating, or worse, to behave self-destructively.ĪI has come a long way in the last two decades, and Definitive Edition’s improvements in this area really show. Path-finding is much better too units generally go where I want them to go. Perhaps it’s this change that I like the most or, to put it another way, it was the AI’s limitations that I liked the least in the 2013 re-release of Age of Empires 2. In single-player mode, the game’s AI has been spruced up. Online play has also seen a lot of user interface improvements as well as a switch to server-based contests. The transition to playing real humans is now much smoother. Now, the transition from AI to human enemies is eased with a specific tutorial called Art of War, that can save a lot of dismal defeats online. Age of Empires III: Definitive Edition needs a Radeon HD 5570 1024MB graphics card to play on low settings, with a Core i3-2105 3.1GHz or Phenom II X4 955 processor to reach the minimum specs. There’s a bunch of hard lessons to learn about common strategies. Playing online is a totally different experience than playing computer-controlled opponents, almost to the point of being a different game. Transition to online play is now much easier
