Absolutely wall with buildings! I heard you mention wanting to house wall, which is a very common thing to do in this game, along with most other buildings. It’s not uncommon to make wall of houses, your blacksmith, military buildings, blacksmith, and market, filling in gaps with pallisade. Most buildings are tougher than palisade, and incorporating them not only saves wood, but more importantly villager work time!
Some general tips. If you create unit groups for infantry/cavalry/siege you can easily control a lot more than 60 and also cavalry will move at cavalry speed and so on. Just makes it easier with micro manage tactics when you’re actually fighting. Hold LB and you can select/create different unit groups around the wheel. Also if you garrison units in your battering rams you’ll do more damage, when the ram is destroyed you also get a quick boost to your infantry numbers which can be helpful during a push.
Love this!!! Little tip I found out if you haven't yet. When more than 1 building the same that produces troops/villagers, you can double tap A on one, it will highlight the buildings and you can stack more. So for example, 4 barracks highlighted can stack 60 troops providing you have the resources. And it will spit out 4 at a time as well 😊
60 units is maximum on pc too. it used to be 40 i think on the older versions. shouldn't be a problem though since unit compositions are usually 2 main units + siege. so control group 1 could be like 40 longbows, control group 2 could be 40 halberdiers, and optionally control group 3 could be siege units.
Nice! For much better experience highly suggest to use small trees mod, I heard it's available on xbox too, on PC's everyone use it and get some basic build order :D Enjoy!
incredibly slow starts on this video, been messing around with khmer and can get imp under 22 mins on hand controller, i dont usually bother though i go castle and double pump elephants and go say hello at around 26 mins , thx for the content though
For those wondering since i see it mentioned all the time. Yes, you can have custom priority & unit control groups if you change control UI from standard to advanced.
@@WholesaleJewelleryAustralia when in game pause and go into options. Choose interface, first option in the "in-game interface" section is called interface. By default it will be on standard. As soon as you change you will see the change in the top left corner. This gives the ability for control groups. And when choosing resource priority pre sets now a "Y" option will show up for custom priority.
That’s just how the timer in aoe2 has worked since 1999. Standard playing speed is 1.7x speed (it was 1.5 before de). Why the standard time isn’t made the center-point, idk. But keeping time in-game synced to the game itself is helpful when talking about the timings on certain milestones/builds. Like a sub-20 minute castle age will still be a sub-20 minute castle age no matter what game speed you play on.
You need to build more lumbar camps.. closer to your woodline as the villagers eat away at it. So many inefficiencies. You put a weak wooden wall where you already had a wall of houses. You need to get two TCs pumping out villagers to the max. Not easy on the controller I'm sure. Did well. The worst thing is how late you upgraded villagers efficiency. Also.. the trading between team mates is a constant supply of gold. Do that next time.
The only thing I seen I need to ask about...you was in age 4 yet no wheelbarrow upgrade...how come?? It's best upgrade in game and needs to be done 1st. I seen you did it later. Great video overall maybe see you in PvP sometime.
I played on the steam version but this games 2v2 and 4v4 is so much fucking fun. Nothing is funnier then rushing China in 5 minutes as English and seeing his teammates send over villegers to help lmfao
The timer for ranked goes at roughly 1.7x the speed of real time. The reason for that basically is that it always was like that since 1999 and everyone got used to it^^
Click Right Stick and auto assign villagers to food and wood at the beginning, they will go looking themselves for munitions. Just make sure to build a mill and wood depot.
Mine turned off too. Problem is I was switching up my settings with a controller that had pretty whacky stick drift so random stuff got changed lol. But it seems like it shut off when I changed the interface to advanced.
You have to hold RB, then press the select button (or the one with the two over lapping squares, next to the Xbox button), you can also cycle through different info clicking Left on the D pad

Good game, really need to stop selecting all your units and attacking 1 enemy manually every time. X will send them into attack mode and they will auto attack everything I'm the way. When you select them and move them like you were they stop attacking but are still getting attacked. Taking a lot of unnecessary damage.
Just press Y and let your scout do his job straight away into the match but keep an eye on him if there's no treaty and gor other livestock he comes across, once he is done he'll just stop
Glad to see new faces watching and playing this game from the console edition! Welcome aboard!
I played 3 on pc but sadly had to sell my pc. Playing the hell out of this on console lol.
I love this game I'm new to it
Same new to the game. Am i blind, or is this game a 2v2 and not a 1v1 as the title says?
wololo

Veteran PC players are going to cause havoc with their mouse and keyboards on the xbox.
I already got a little taste on it...KB&M feels like playing a pro
But you can turn crossplay off
Im glad you play this game as im new to it
Makes me love it even more
Happy to have a new RTS game on console but I’m so bad at this game. Thought I would be good cus I’m good at wars 😭
Build more vills biggest mistake I see is not building enough vills
You’ll get used to it
Play the advanced tutorials a couple times. They made me pretty decent
@@SolitaryLark what do you mean by vills? Like villagers?
@@imbeast90 yeah it’s just an abbreviation
Great seeing more people play. Really cool seeing Xbox gameplay
it's 2v2, not 1v1.
🤣🤣🤣

Aaand all of a sudden I want to play multi-player
I'm only used to the ai
09:13 It's much easier to deselect if you toggle split send/select in settings. Then you won't have to press b all the time
Idk if u know but for ur scout, hit RB, and set a way point path by hitting LT A on the map
Exactly the rb system is a must for a competitive gameplay.
Game time is correlated to game speed, which is probably 1.7.

You guys should play total war warhammer 3 I think you’d like it and it would make for good content
Guy won the first Xbox aoe2 tournament yesterday was on an original decade old Xbox one so it should be quite fine on any Xbox One
did they stream it?
@@lazyreye2471 they sure did, on Twitch. Player was hamrtime and Yodesla casted the whole tournament

Thank you for this will check it out :)
I can’t find this, is it under “unterface” and change it to advanced?
Or is it only editable in-game?
can’t find the option

Its so hard to play a RTS on a console o god the hot keys and the grouping. What xbox is this played on ?
¿Does anybody know if mod Middle Earth can be played on Xbox?
Lmfao I've spectated a game with Xandy92
the time is twice as quick and his commentry still is in sync
ive just got to the point where he says the timer is off

Thanks for playing this game and halo wars. Really appreciate you.
Thank you for enjoying the videos!
Play with mouse/keyboard u will be faster
Great video! But the title says 1 vs. 1
Mmm says 1v1 but you have a team mate I'm confused
This is technically a 2v2 game
How u put name and number to the right i cant ?

how do you turn on auto scout?
With scout selected hold RT - The bottom icon; a compass icon.
Didn't even know I could fuckin AUTO scout on xbox -_- time to learn more
you can auto as well on pc, only the first scout
Im 5 and 5 in ranked 1v1 on xbox. I haven't played a strat game in 20 years, but its been hella fun learning a new ranked meta besides FPS's lol
The only thing I seen I need to ask about...you was in age 4 yet no wheelbarrow upgrade...how come?? It's best upgrade in game and needs to be done 1st. I seen you did it later. Great video overall maybe see you in PvP sometime.
Title says 1v1

Destroy his houses so he can’t….. -I believe the words you’re looking for is “build a resist-once” as a French men would say lol
Don't forget Ballistics in the university in castle agw and to upgrade crossbows to arbalest in imperial.
Take your boars in dark age and it'll speed thing up alot. Lure them to your TC, don't lose a vill. Get loom first until you are confident luring.
This is 2v2 hehe
The amounts of mistakes this guy made in the first 2 mins 😬 I can’t watch.
See ya, Jimmy
Lol how does he have 3 houses.
Just got introduced to Age Of Empires and I gotta say that it's much better than Halo Wars 2 tbh
Also I think the timer is faster because it's auto fast mode on pvp. But I could be wrong lol
Try make your mines have a one tile gap between the stone/gold :) much more efficient
Tell me this is on ps5
hold LT when you are sending your scout with "a" and you can queue their movements
I’m 0-40 so far 😐
😂😂😂😂
@@Latinblood59 got my first win yesterday
@@Stewart1499 congrats! Little by little, man 💪🏽 lol
That was such a poor start and organisation of your villagers 😂
You can hold the left trigger and make your scout go a certain path
Random comment for the TH-cam algorithm. 16:26
hard to watch the first 90 seconds, not going to lie lol
Thanks
You need to rebuild lumber camps for better wood efficiently - if the lumber camp is too far then villagers spend longer walking than chopping
Vous préférez les commandes classique ou avancée a la manette ? j'hésite beaucoup
that achievement thingy scared the living crap out of me
eww, gross
One word of advice…. HUNS
I think people forgot that ae2 was also on ps2
Como les sale los nombres de cada uno arriba del mapa???
Need to change the title to 2v2 not 1v1 lol
Hey guys, I've played about 20 games and still can't find my rank. Can someone explain this to me please 🙏🏽
AOE2 doesn't do rank, it instead has a number (ELO) which is your rank
@TeamRespawn yes I understand that but where do I find my elo. I've played so many and don't have a score yet
Your fast and good.
