Title: Age of Empires: Definitive Edition (4k)
Post by: Hevar. on June 13, 2017, 01:41:23 am
The classic and beloved game Age of Empires celebrates 20 years this year. Microsoft is celebrating the release of a Definite Edition where the original was updated and improved. It gets better graphics in 4K where it is also possible to zoom out much more than before. The game also gets updated and improved gameplay as well as a newly recorded soundtrack.

Age of Empires is being fully remastered. You can sign up for the beta at http://www.ageofempires.com.

Holy shit, I've been waiting for this for so long.
I'm done with AoE 3 where u can't even control your army correctly.
I think the best one was Age of Empires 2 Conquerors Edition. Really love this game :D

And that soundtrack at the mainmenu  :app: :app:

Yeah indeed, they already released a HD-version, why the fuck release a 4k-version that probably will cost 20-30$

Well, it's great that they've decided to polish and remaster such a game. Too bad it's mostly visuals and has not improved the strategy gameplay part that much, just zoom levels and Xbox multiplayer...

According to the Microsoft Store, the pre-order price is $19.99. So, don't worry! So far, I know the link on the Microsoft Store, only.

It seems that the game's release was postponed, because, the development team wants to give the returning and new Age of Empires players a proper experience. You can read more here (https://www.ageofempires.com/news/age-empires-de-release-update/).
Quote from: Age of Empires: Definitive Edition Team
The challenge of re-releasing a classic is just that: it's a classic and it deserves to be treated with careful reverence.
Quote from: Age of Empires: Definitive Edition Team
So, the challenge is to recreate the experience not as it actually was but as we all remember it.
Quote from: Age of Empires: Definitive Edition Team
To that end, rather than a final release of Age of Empires: Definitive Edition on October 19, we will instead be inviting thousands more players from the community into our closed beta between now and launch to allow for more in-depth testing across single player campaign, multiplayer balance, fine-tuning the lobby, etc.
We don't have a final release date to share quite yet, but are targeting early 2018.
Too long; didn't read: Age of Empires: Definitive Edition was postponed in order to make the best playing experience possible for players. If you want to help, you can join the closed beta and send feedback to the developers. It's called the Age of Empires Insider Program (https://www.ageofempires.com/age-insider-information/). (You'll need an Xbox Live account, though)

No idea, I think it will be in 2019, but imagine having different timeframe like 1600-1945 or 400 BC - 400 AC... it'll be awesome.

Another cancerthing they added, great

This is the "better version", 4K-textures etc

serious why is this game only on Windows store? it should be buyable on Steam also why so much negative review ? is it so bad?
Title: Re: Age of Empires: Definitive Edition (4k)
Post by: Vitorrio on April 04, 2018, 11:37:18 am
Also, why so much negative review? Is it so bad?
I read some of the negative reviews and they are related to the game not wanting to start. From what I have seen, Microsoft has been working on fixing these bugs and we will just have to see if they are able to fix them.
Too long, didn’t read: Those who gave negative reviews are annoyed by having to reinstall the game in order to play it properly (it has 17 GB).
Serious why is this game only on Windows store?
What did you really expect from Microsoft Studios?
Title: Re: Age of Empires: Definitive Edition (4k)
Post by: Hevar. on April 04, 2018, 12:41:02 pm
Well all other AoE games are on steam?

I mean like a remaster of AOE2, not a remaster of AOE1.
