📢 We are looking for a Generalist/Concept Artist to join our fully remote #gamedev team! Sounds like you or someone you know? Here's all the info on how to apply: careers.captureage.com RTs always appreciated #hiring

@EGCTV_AOE @BeastyqtSC2 @AgeNoob 🤔

@BeastyqtSC2 @AgeNoob Could be a cool stat to work into AOE4 events. The clock should stop when a player reaches 100 vills (inc. traders) as it could begin to lose relevancy. Wonder if a genius like @abductypus would be interested in thinking on it.

I played some AOE2 but never paid attention to tournaments back then, watching AOE2 Dreamhack now I got a question. Is the "IDL TC" refer to how long TC has been idle aka not producing vills? I've seen multiple games that were 10min long and average idle time was 1m for players.

At RBWL, we were overloaded by compliments🥰. Of all these compliments "You're very receptive to feedback." is by far the best to hear. Keep the feedback flowing!

Red Bull Wololo Legacy was absolutely amazing, the players, the fans, the producers, hosts and casters, and the developers. Everyone is so passionate about Age of Empires.

We're working on some really exciting things!

@JonWooders That sounds tough, what is it?

@abductypus A 7am shot of Spanish Supremacy

I'll be in Heidelberg 27th-30th. If anyone's up for a time-of-day-appropriate-drink, lemme know.

@EGCTV_AOE @redbullgaming The Leenocktopus feels a bit like an interesting boss fight I'd love to get rekt by.

Some absolutely stunning banners for @redbullgaming Wololo: Legacy! This coming weekend, we'll help Red Bull add two more to the gallery via the last Monthly Final (Saturday and Sunday 15 GMT) - twitch.tv/egctv! But for now, comment below your favourite so far!

@hszemi This image out-dates DE >:(

@abductypus 11 the colours made me first think it was a flaming camel

Out of curiosity: would anyone buy this if it were real (and tasty)?

@DonDinardoni Haha, yeah a QR code sounds like a good idea - reminds me a bit about y Graphical Design teacher: BUD(weiser)'s marketing is designed so you can order one while drunk; you're never too far to say "buhd". Though I'm sober till RBW:L, so I doubt I will invest time into this beer.

@abductypus Not a beer drinker, but would give it a shot. Also, QR code instead of Discord URL might be good. Idk if people would still be able to coordinate their motor functions sufficiently well for typing after enough beers to get the courage to apply. 11 Great idea!

@Jexballa Is it 90kg weighing and 300 meter flying?

It's an image almost as old as the Siege Engineers modding discord it self. discord.gg/njAsNuD

@huehuecoyotl22 Sold out in ~5 minutes I believe.

Are the Saturday tickets and 2-day tickets already sold out or not available yet?

@EGCTV_AOE I'm reasonably sure at one point you said you would never get out of silver (which you did), but now you're even plat😎

Over the past year, we have a lot to be grateful to Microsoft for, as they've continued supporting us and our mission to bring more and more people to AOE IV esports. But I'm most thankful that they bumped up the ranked ELO and game me a new badge and internet points ♥️

@T90Official Wait, what's this? This sounds amazing!

🚨 Event Announcement 🚨 $22,500 T90 Titans League Time to shake things up & bring promotion/relegation to AoE2! Let’s go! youtu.be/ch2SzijcnCo

@EGCTV_AOE As a viewer this makes me very happy! I loved watching AoE2's The Resurgence and Terra Nova Duos.

Starting from Week 2 of Road to Red Bull Wololo: Legacy.... Community Maps! Every weekend, starting with the 2nd weekly (11-12 June), we'll introduce at least one new custom community map as we seek to bring the most practical and beautiful maps to the AOE IV pro scene!

@hszemi @CaptureAge You're still not wrong :)

@CaptureAge Oh I know this one! It's "missing texture"

Very good guesses so far, we're impressed from such an abstract mandala-like shape. The number we were looking for here was 3. The full version would look a bit more like this one, albeit with different colors. Here red represents 1 and green represents both 3 and 4.

youtube.com/watch?v=CR2l19… As a developer mostly working on Age of Empires & Natural Language this is 6+ hours of pure concentrated porn.

Just played some Mario Odyssey for the first time. The experience so far is really very masterpiece-promising. I especially love how they took out the harsher punishment for dying in previous 3D Marios and focus on a fun yet challenging experience - it really respects my time.
