    You are misunderstanding the Attack Moves at 25:45.
    Aggressive stance means that units will chase enemy units. Defensive stance means units will chase enemy units only a bit. Hold ground means units will not chase enemy units. These are totally separate behaviors from Attack Move.
    Attack move behaves exactly like in Starcraft or in Warcraft 3, the only difference is that you toggle it by pressing SPACE+clicking instead of A+clicking.
    The reason your units are getting stuck at 26:30 is because the fog is blocking the road until you kill the manticore.

    Honestly I rebound three or four keys and then it was fine, undeniably it feels a bit counterintuitive to have space as a-move, but I wouldn't regard rebinding a key as a deal breaker in and of itself. Construction is a grid layout, same as AoE4, and not how AoM worked. Control groups are standard. It's all reasonably normal.

    I can't believe Grubby got filtered by attack move. It's especially bizarre that he thought the stances had anything to do with attack moving, since stances aren't particularly rare in RTS, and he played both AOE2 for a while and AOE4 for quite some time, both of which have stances. It's even more wild that no one in chat corrected him.

      Space+Left click works just fine as well. Just when you press Space, the text that you can now press right click to attackmove tells you how to "confirm" the attackmove

    • @ikosaeder20
      @ikosaeder20 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      Alt + right click is *attack move,* simple and useful. Always has been in AoM, I'm glad they kept it.
      Yes there is also space by default (or whatever you want to bind) to enter *attack mode,* so you an activate it with next mouse click. Why make your life more complicated?

      @1InVader1 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@gongal to be fair that's most people and a while a lot of RTS have "intuitive" control schemes, they are ineffective once you start playing at a higher level: e.g. think selection and contedxtual move order both being on LMB in Red Alert 2. Then for RA3 they changed it so that LMB is selections and RMB is contextual order, but then the cancel/confirm is flipped again and camera movement is also on RMB, so if you edge-pan the camera and try to get units moving at the same time it registers as an edge-pan.
      There's good reason Blizzard/DoTA controls are the standard at the very least for the mouse. Keyboard, I'd argue Red Alert 3 does best.

    Hotkeys with norse are very weird, militar units can build, so you have 2 different menus, the militar positions and the build one, and "A" changes between them. Also villagers can turn into berserks and "A" transforms them, so you have to change those 2 hotkeys before changing Attack move from space (default) to A. Then everything will work alright.

      The Norse are honestly the biggest victims of lack of the build button. I've complained a couple times already how badly this affects Norse micro. Sure hope it gets fixed. There's 0 benefit to not having the build button. If I have to make one extra press to build something, chances are my build order will hit the exact same timing. But if I have to do an extra button press to issue combat commands - well now I may have just lost the game

  • @cubandarknez
    @cubandarknez 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

    Hope grubby gives this another try down the line, this game has such great flavor! I think the default keybindings are really subpar, but only took me like 15 minutes to set up the things I needed to get started, and since the hotkeys have a search function I could find the other things I needed to change after a few skirmish games. I do think the QoL is nowhere near the current standard for RTS (likely as a result of the engine), and there are clear implementation issues with pathing jankiness and units getting stuck. However, as a fan of the setting it is still tons of fun for me, and it lends itself to some of the most enjoyable team matches with distinct civilizations, and kick ass myth units + god powers. If they actually get villager automation to work properly, this will be a great casual RTS to enjoy 3v3 / 4v4 on for years to come.

      @cubandarknez 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@ikosaeder20 There's a few things that show the age of the engine in terms of how smart the unit AI can be, and then there are some limitations on hotkey customization. It's nothing major, just small things that have improved over the years, primarily through SC2's contributions, but also a few other titles. Personally for me one of the more annoying things is the units slowing down so much for the slowest unit in the group, wish there was a setting to turn that off or a stance that ignored that.

    • @ikosaeder20
      @ikosaeder20 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      @@cubandarknez Thanks, I get your points. I had really high hopes for the new AI, now I am kind of dashed. The hotkeys are fine imo, you can still create a user.con for custom hotkeys - though the default bindings *force* you to do something about them, really bad UX.
      I think they used the AoE3DE engine instead of AoE4 because the latter would no longer support most of the physics and mechanics of AoM. An act from necessity, so to speak. Better this way around than losing all resemblance with the OG.
      Hm, I actually prefer to be slowed down to the speed of the slowest unit. And I like that when one unit is attacked in melee, the whole formation gets slowed down slightly. Forces more micro to split your army. But it's a really peculiar mechanic.

    Ancient languages only in cutscenes would get old fast. Easier to localize, I guess. You say it’d be more immersive, but would Arkantos really speak to Amanra in Ancient Greek, while she replies to him in ancient Egyptian (or Nubian for that matter)? Makes no sense.

      @@MultiReptilian But keys can be changed and you can't expect two different games to have same exact layouts beyond basic commands. Most of these pros drilled the same game into their minds for 10+ years and when they try something different they simply can't or don't wish to adjust. They get hung up on tiny differences and write off the entire thing. They also jump into the game without actually looking at anything and expect the hotkeys to be exact same as in their prefered rts.
      I genuenly want to know if I'm missing something here or if it's just people who don't care about these games and simply play them once or twice for views and then go back to their rts of choice.

      ​​@@vexienroeYep, gravitas sums it up best. New Athena sounds like just another average person that has bumped into Arkantos socially... . Having said that, it is maybe better that they didnt try for the more powerful 'gravitas' with the new VA; I've seen a few projects recently where a new actor tries to replicate the tone of an older performance, and it rarely matches up. Not everyone can pull it off. Shame they couldn't just keep the original voices really.
