​@@LillyAnarkitty Big difference between knowing his position and cracking a joke vs being egotistical. The reality is Beasty is consitantly the highest ranked AoE4 player in the world, it's not an estimation at this point he is statistically the best. Everyone who has ever looked at AoE4 world knows this. He's got a few options with what he can do with that info. He can, A) Ignore it and pretend it doesnt exist, dont make guides, dont stream, just play. B) Brag about it constantly and tell people to shove it because he clearly knows better. C) Regularly make self deprecating statments about himself during videos to try and downplay his skill/inteligence. D) crack jokes about it while making good content. Arguably only 1 of these is a display of humility. 1 is simply disconnecting from the world amd the other 2 are arguablly two sides of the same coin that is egotism. Just to move the conversation along for us, D is the only real humble solution here. A is disconnected and B and C are both egotistical behaviors, where one is overbearing and the other is manipulative. Now obivously I'm not arguing that Beasty is some perfect human being, no one is. But you're just looking to pick a fight calling him egotistical for his joke that is a handfull of seconds in an hour long video about helping others less skilled than himself get better at something they love and enjoy.

I have benefited greatly from these guides. Besides, it is extremely fun to watch an expert at work.

Just wanna say I love your vids. Thanks for making these. I hope your career keeps going strong Beasty. I followed you in Sc2 for a while and now I'm switching to AoE 4 (cuz that's where my friends are). God Bless.

Thanks for the clarity of thought and helpful guides as always. I used to watch your content a lot as an SC2 player and am now transitioning to playing AoE4. Much love

Great video definitely sending this to my friend who just started playing also your villager count really helps I usually end up with about 80-120 vils as hre depending on relic count and I’ve had plenty of people tell me I make to many workers so very reassuring to hear you say u don’t need big army count as long as u can replenish it

most useful AOE vid on youtube so far besides his "How to Micro". Thanks Beasty!

Incredibly helpful and well presented. Nice work! I would add that people should think about “player attention” as it’s own resource to manage.

The farm one was so helpful. I always placed the mill and shift clicked farms around it and got so annoyed at why my dented vills would just go and lay all the farms together first

Absolutely loved the content, i learned a lot, which is applicable to other RTS as well. (please stop banging your desk though, its picked up by the mic :D:D:D)

the best guide ı ever seen thx

This guide is GOAT and makes me feel pro even though I'm to Intimidated to play XD

one of the things i do is set select all x building hotkeys for example i use CTRL + A for all barracks

does anyone else have the bug where sometimes when you middle click to screen drag, the screen jumps to the cursor location suddenly? anyone know how to fix that?

With regards to relic scooping, if I know I'm going FC but am concerned my opponent might be right behind, should I build two churches?

On your video for rus, you recommended to use pro scouts. Should I remove this from rus build?

Hello Im thinking to buy AoE4 for making customized battles based on The Lord of the Rings and the Hobbit vs IA. Can it be changed units and names of heroes? With the map editor? I would play it on Xbox. Thank you.

anyone know why he hotkets army with 123? plz &thx i see he always does this.

Without you, I could never brag about my skills to my friends

Love u man. The comment with 20 IQ..... pure true!

Ok, its good to have the TC attached on a key other than H, because you can select it and make villagers without getting off the scout. BUT... you can see whats been queued on the left side, you don't need to select the TC to see that you don't have villagers been queued... its show even how much of them will be done... right?

The best way I went about it is to ask yourself this "What military is best for me?" Horsemen, Archers, infantry, siege weapons, or ships! Learn what military you use best first and then learn how to manage your economy. I say learn your military first so that way you can learn how to defend yourself. If you fail to learn how defend yourself, you'll lose before the game even starts! So some Civs have bad early game but good late while others have good early game but bad late game. I've played games where me and my team had bad early games but end up winning late game and vice versa. So learn what military is best for you and then learn from there.

Hey man, thanks for the video My problem with the game is that when i constantly produce military units i get into the habit of using the select all military hotkey, because i dont want to lose the fight because of having idle military units. Unbinding and using the select all idle military units didnt help me that much because it doesnt count newly produced units that are going to the rally point and i cant keep spamming and using it all the time. I am loosing many fights when i dont use the select all military hotkey. The problem with this hotkey is that i cant fight on two fronts and split my units accordingly. Also my strategically placed scouts are selected as well and die because of that. How do break this habit and how can i integrate newly produced units in my army more efficiently? Thanks in advance.

@appledoo

The best thing i can suggest is using control groups, and establishing your production rally points close to the frontline, this works fairly well, and you could of course unbind the select all key

He's using control groups. Ctrl + number sets a control group for that number, meaning when you press that number you select the unit or building you put in that group. So put scout on one number and TC on another, then you can quickly switch between them.

why does he make a tower next to his keep?

One of the main reasons beginners of any RTS game stare at battles is because they lack the game knowledge to judge at a glance if a fight is in their favor

but you can tell when the villager is made in the queue list so doesn't that still make it a waste of energy?

@TockMinecraft

6 ай бұрын

It also helps him keeping a high rythm. High APM isn't necessarily effective APM but it allows a player to multitask easier and commit less mistakes. Try to force yourself to play faster and permamently switching between all your control groups and you'll see what I mean. You'll have a much better reaction time, and there is usually a point where you can clearly see your opponent isn't paying enough attention on whole fronts when you start doing this. Then, when you start being confortable with f.e 3 control groups, you add one more until you really feel you are overwhelmed. You'll eventually reach a limit but If you don't push your limits you'll always be average or slightly better than average. Hope it helps, cheers.

Why is it necessary to spam TC when there’s an icon how many villagers are being produced ???

@Ilandria.

23 күн бұрын

It's only needed when your eco is tight enough that you can only afford to have 1 villager in queue, because you want to add a new one right before the first one completes. Once your eco is good enough that you can afford to have 2 in queue you can just add a new villager whenever you see there's only one remaining. Even then though if you have a good internal sense of time you can afford to check the production buildings MUCH less often than spamming (like once every second or two). A lot of the spamming just comes from keeping your fingers warmed up and playing at a constant pace throughout the game rather than speeding up and slowing down during intense and calm moments. I can't claim that playing at a more measured place at each moment is viable at the highest level of play (since I don't play at that level), but you can go very very far in pretty much any RTS with a conservative amount of APM.

Nice thing about this game on Xbox, is that you can click one button to automatically produce villagers.

I just don’t understand … it takes a 1 TC 50+ minutes to get 120 villagers. So I have to get 50+ into a game without losing a single villager in order to get to that point. How can this possibly be done consistently? By the time I reach 60-80 it’s over

EPICO

1000th like. Yep that was me. That's an achievement in itself I guess 😂😂😂

why people run their scout around instead of using queued commands is nuts you can literally bang your civs out at the start and then set your scouts course, returning home to deposit sheep every so often and more often at the start.

The spamming in the beginning is really unnecessary. You can see if you're producing villagers without spamming the TC, literally above where you look on the TC you can see if you're producing villagers and if so, how many are queued.

When you got a lot of time is fine what you are sayng. When u need to be fast the beasty way is the best option. And a reason more, just to let you know: usually players like beasty (or any other good player in rts) do that as a warming up. At the beginning of the game you don't need a lot of apm, but you'll need it later. Starting from the beginning with a lot apm (even if they are "useless") it'll help you later when you'll need it. You can check any good player in starcraft, AOE2, CnC, etc etc. they do the same. BTW, i don't thing a top 10 player of a game needs advice about how to play from a random guy on youtube ;)
