Age of Empires III
The continued Books of History
Well hello peoples of AOE FANS
Im proud to say that im a great FAN too and i may have a few ideas, This is including idea's of fellow Knights
TERRAIN(NATURE)
(trees)
As one person said i do agree with the idea of trees in the options of jungle and then dense jungle but can only walk through jungle but not dense as it is too thick to walk through.(logical thinking right!)
(water)
water should have the option of random events such as tropical hurricanes(natural disaters such as volcanoes or tornadoes in american land)
and different water effects such as frozen lakes and WATERFALLS for cliffs!
(growth!)
this is another idea from another source said that maybe we could have growth in trees such as an optional forrester that plants little wee trees and then takes years for em to grow..
(im sick of bare grounds)
(time)
AOE III should have a time frame to day and night
can either have arcade time(traditional no time)
or realistic time say one min equals a day, but his time frame could destroy! the game all together!
(mines)
there is an option in AOK called shaft mining where it supposly says that villigers no longer collect from the surface that they build shafts and ladders and baskets.
THAT i wanna actually see!
(birth)
there should be natures birth for sheep and deer so that you can optionally breed you own cattle such as sheep or cow!
this could also apply to human birth maybe there could be a mating season for both animals and humans!
i reckon that one would be absolutly great!
BUILDINGS(civilisations)
(shapes)
Building will probally retain there old look but me personally i would like to see different building shapes in random order or selection for each type of building kinda like the wonders have different heights and sizes...
oh and yes i would love to see ranches with silos and little wee house that need 3-5 viligers to occupy for food.
(optional upgrade building or make histroical)
i would love to see where when you upgrade you could optionlally choose for your selected buildings to retain historical shapes, bit like a wonder!
UNITS
(cost)
with the idea of unit stats modified i dont agree but if it were to happen! it should be that if you were to create a unit you could modify it stats but the cost would be higher,
this could come into the fact of making commanders and ranks such as generals leaders and scouts
(civillsation)
villigers are so weak they should have the option of when they are attacked that they can rush to the nearest barrack or milintary building and recieve what ever weapon is available.
this option of AT ARMS should be a costly research option and logically you are paying for the training of each villager!
SKY
As for the matter of the sky it should be there as ther may be a 3-d engine and when you zoom in you can see the sky.
this is where the engines should come from!
3-D Engine to 2-D Engine views
the engines should be like a scroll option on you mouse when you zoom in you can see up but when you zoom out to birds eye view it would look like the classical view of AOE!
CONCLUSION!
if ensemble studio's does any of these things it should become a total smash hit and become a forever lasting classical for the years to come and thus all children to come will see that this SAGA will continue on forever
AS THE BOOKS OF HISTORY IS ADDED EACH AGE!
