    Extremely instructive, straight to the point video, full of details and proper relativism where it's due.
    The topic was not well enough covered already by others and is not well known by many.
    No time lost on undue editing or self-promotion.
    No solution is presented as a perfect tactic, every shown strategy has its advantages and drawbacks clearly stated, and the extense of those.
    Every information is contextualised.
    Narration is clear, the rythm of information comprises necessary little pauses to digest the most complex concepts before moving to the next sentence.
    Examples are shown.
    This is a very rare and precious video.
    Congratulations are not nearly enough.

    Super interesting video. A good idea is to include checking if your wall is really closed, or if there is a tiny gap in it. To do so, you can take a villager and let it move behind your wall, to see if it is going through it.

    It's a small thing but I had to laugh so hard at 22:54 - looks like you cycle through the hot keys of WONDER, COLLOSEUM, WATER TOWER, ARC DE TRIOMPHE to finally get to the archery range. I know it's possibly an editor thing but man was I confused for a second. Absolutely perfect educational video btw. Much love!

    Very useful video. I reached 1400 peak with no full walls and I could never medium wall either. I only ever did resource walls and hoped I could reach castle age first and build tcs instead of walls to protect my resources.

      @giovannipiantanida2198 2 ปีที่แล้ว +9

      I’m around the same elo (1400, peek 1530) and usually I don’t full wall. But it happens that I get punished for this. Probably the solution is fully walling gradually, because in early castle age full walls are important e.g. vs knights

    This sort of video just really speaks to the high degree of RNG in this game. Having a bad map literally put him behind 150 wood. 150 wood! That's like a civ eco bonus!
    Further, even after walling he wasn't actually safe! Both golds exposed to archer harassment. To wall such that archers wouldn't be able to hit his golds it would have cost even more!

    • @SurvivalistAoE
      @SurvivalistAoE  2 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      This is why you have to decide whether it's even worth it to wall. On those very open maps, just making military/a defensive tower can be better.

    0:30 this is what happened to me everytime, so now i don't wall my base anymore. my opponent walls, that way he falls behind xD I go for resource walls, and towers if needed.

    • @twdsmaguns
      @twdsmaguns 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      i too do not wall completely, or i notice when i wall i tend to lose. if i do wall, i leave huuuge gaps so i don't have to mind the gates and shit

    • @ADCFproductions
      @ADCFproductions 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@twdsmaguns Yeah it's a big choice to make! i rarely leave gaps when walling, but i find i have no resources left to build army ;_; i build the barracks, build the archery range and that's it, 0 wood left! By this point the enemy is coming over with scouts or archers, and i'm just sitting there like an idiot.
      After this point what usually happens is: The enemy sees that he will not get in, so he stops army production and goes to Castle Age instead. Then starts making knights and builds a forward siege workshop and makes mangonels. This happens a lot.
      Now i don't wall at all, maybe just a few tiles to wall the resources. i tend to go for archers 90% of the time, by not walling i can build 2 archery ranges and make archers right away! So with no walls to defend, i have army, which is much better than having walls and no army xD If need be i'll drop a tower or two, no problem.

    How do I make it so my map spawns with resources at the back and many woodlines? Viper seems to have a way to do that.

  • @gamerisdc
    @gamerisdc 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    For those of you who intend to use terrain to wall, do be careful that you check it with a palisade wall or other building first. Once when playing Arabia, I once thought I walled to the left and skipped a section with a cactus, only to find out that the cactus was a decorative tree and not an actual tree, allowing my opponent's scouts to come into my base and do damage. While I did win the game afterwards, I was slowed down significantly in feudal age so do check the walls beforehand.

    There will always be a hole somewhere in my walls. No matter where I build the walls. Right next to a building, next to Woodline, wherever there's a hidden spot that's open somewhere. I'm used to it.

  • @demiserofd
    @demiserofd 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Something people should sometimes consider is, often you can take dramatically more of the map with minuscule increase in resource investment. For example, on an arabia map I just generated, I could cover half my base with 34 palisades, or I could take literally half the map with 39.

    • @SurvivalistAoE
      @SurvivalistAoE  11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      One of the major issues with this is that you can't wall behind walls that are too far away. Walling too big actually makes you less safe in many situations.

    • @demiserofd
      @demiserofd 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@SurvivalistAoE Just as long as you don't end up having to place a dozen houses behind your walls as they send their scouts up and down.
      If you can take a lot of the map with a few extra walls it's a perfect case for a few stone walls imo.

    @pataspatas88 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Super helpful! I have a question, why is that you wall only to near the town center? Is it that if you garrison you make that much of damage?
    I mean if you have enough army you can pass below it and then you are in... Isn't it?

    • @SurvivalistAoE
      @SurvivalistAoE  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Archers die very fast to the tc fire, so you usually don't need to seal your base against them (assuming you can garrison in time). Against scouts they will just run past though.
      By the time the archers player has enough army to run through your tc, you should either have army or be in castle age. You can also do emergency quick walls to prevent your opponent from leaving the tc fire, though this requires some quick thinking.

    Dear Survivalist, I hope I can give you some constructive feedback. The font (I've only watched the first minute so far, maybe it will change later) is a bit hard to read for me on my smartphone. I'm not an expert on these things but maybe the font should be less playful or the contrast higher, maybe thicker borders. As always, thanks for the awesome video! I know it's gonna be good before even watching it :D
