Still, even if older mods are somehow compartible, they will look very much out of place. __ The OF| [/ ]|¯| [/ ] |ME ______________________________________________________________________________ |__ _ |¯|____|_______________________________________________________________________________ The Relics of Athalën (5.0)|AoK Opus - 100,000+ downloads|StormWind Studios|'I consider the conversion of Basse to be one of the great triumphs of my modding crusade' - Matt LiVecchi |
posted 06-11-19 07:20 AM CT (US) 6 / 18 The graphics are done the same way as the origin, 3D models rendered as 2D sprites. Apparently now though, there are more angles and more frames per angle, so modding in a new unit would be a huge effort. We will have to see though.

But now that seemingly substantial updates and progress is happening, they earned enough credit now so that I will check it out at release. Maybe I will make a writeup on the new campaign, although I can already see it being cakewalk mode for all the people who didnt play AoK for 15+ years now. I dont really care about graphics but they didnt look bad in the trailer. 'Excellent could be any map that has the quality of a ES random map or ES scenario. AoK is an excellent, award winning game.

posted 06-19-19 01:42 PM CT (US) 15 / 18 Does anybody know whether this will be playable on Mac? I really think they should consider it as many people these days use macs a lot more than they did back when the original game was released.

posted 06-19-19 07:48 PM CT (US) 16 / 18 The system requirements are unfortunately quite hefty. Certainly not extreme by modern PC gaming standards, but a lot more restrictive that the HD remake or the CD version are. Part of AoE2's charm has been that everyone pretty much can run it, so I imagine a decent portion of the fanbase will be a bit inconvenienced by this.
