Game Theory: How Rome Dominates Mobile Strategy Games 

AGREED

This is over 2 years old....

"The best victory is when the opponent surrenders of its own accord before there are any actual hostilities... It is best to win without fighting." -Sun Tzu in short: confound and confuse them so much they forget they are in a fight! "And from that day foward anytime a bunch of animals are in one place it's called a Tzu!" -Soldier tf2

+Joey's Raticate I am still playing Dat game

Ronaldjr Montagne Cool

Sorry Matt, these kind of games aren't strategy

+Your Mother Secret to all these games: the one with the biggest wallet (or daddy's credit card) wins. This is why I don't play any game where you play against other people and you can buy advantages in the game with real life money.

+Ravenzx Zanganzx Pretty sure the title was a dead give away. You know... ''Mobile Strategy Games''.

I don't think im retarded but thanks - I think I did catch the title, want me to erase my comment and make you feel happier?

***** Oh sorry mate I just don't like ranters but you've explained yourself.

Not really as detailed as hoi4, but WW2: sandbox strategy & Tactics is good

@@hellothere9407 handy games make some strategy games (ww2)

Everytime i got to strategy category on moblie i all i can see is clash of clans like games seriously im not even exaturating its so hard to find a actual strategy game

An basically near same strategy experience as hoi4,eu,or cc is basically almost impossible. Ww2 strategy sandbox and tactics is the closest thing and even then its like 30% of hoi4. An game like any of these 3 takes alot of space,effort,time,etc. And hoi4 itself takes space in the hundreds of megabytes especially if you include dlc and mods. And why i and alot of people play strategy games on pc.

I recommend World Conquerer 4, you might find it *UNFAIRLY CAPITALISTIC* but I gurantee you, youll have fun

CharlesTopHat I DO

CharlesTopHat How do you pronounce her name? It's hard to imagine Mrs as a name.

i had a 3rd grade teacher named mrs. miller, and she was also my teacher during 5th grade, and then she was the principal of my middle school throughout 6th to 8th grade. so yeah, lots of mrs miller for me

CharlesTopHat I DID

I have a 7th grade teacher named mr.miller

Creeps, you watch Game Theory? Awesome!!

I love you

So we meet again. Different video same people.

CreepsMcPasta I watch your videos

cool

my god please put this in the game

Niall Schroder Yeah this.

I want to see matpat playing rome total war someday.

@@spade3798 me too

And the warfare ecoessialy in the newer games where the battle have gotten harder and more complexs

WhyNotGames Where's the evidence, eh? (I'm actually american but I had to make the joke)

Ey, at least he's intelligent. That's our word for smart (

WhyNotGames south park reference

WhyNotGames I don’t get it

NAGASAKI!

This.

?

This sounds great.

yes! the moves should also burn the enemy that has the same ability(or similar type) to you, almost like, burning a franchise.

I agree but I think he should have a move where mat can call upon the other theorists like the goomba and cirley hair (I dont remember their names

Not a bad theory to be honest. I'd watch that.

It's more like the idea of weaponizing plants to harm other beings or uses for wartime (other than eating unless poison like the bean plant in the game) maybe like a cherry that had some sort of chemical reaction with the enzyme's in your mouth and cause the consumer to implode or a plant that when activated by some sort of electrical charge shoots a poisonous barb something like that other then them being able to move

We live in a really weird world where there are exploding bugs, fart spraying mammals, frogs that come back from the dead, fish that can jump out of tanks and walk back to bodies of water and small organisms that can survive radiation levels that can kill ten people. So I say "why not?" If things can evolve to suck exponential categories, why can't plants evolve to defend themselves from humans, rotting or otherwise?

I hope Mat Pat sees this

Poopkins The Venus fly trap eats decomposing animals, so if it grew big enough to a huge size, and got smarter, it could make a fine meal out of them zombies. This is what science can do, if done right.

Call chaotic mind bolt

Agreed

Absolutely!

but it can only be a special power move, one he has to build power up for so he isnt overpowered.

I as thinking the same thing, only instead of an OP move, you can stun the enemies for a set amount of seconds, due to them being extremely confused to all the math equations and such

Levi is dead

I wish I could like this more times so it'd have a bigger chance of getting seen

twistedlove96 You did all you could! Thats perfect.

twistedlove96 I liked it too so that may help hopefully :D

Danii Delgadillo together we are stronger >:D

Yaaaay! Friends! We must gather more!

You've clearly never played a good RTS before.

IPlayPCTooMuch Just curious, but what RTS games do you have in mind when you say that. I'm always open to new games, and I guess i'm just trying to get some recommendations :)

jfl125 Age of Empires series (I would recommend AoE III if you're just getting into strategy games, all of them before that one are way different) The Starcraft series. (brood war was the best, but bw multiplayer is kinda dead so you might wanna just go to SC2: HoTS.) And the Total War series is great because it has a turn-based campaign map, but RTS battles, which are really nice. Just don't play any total war games after empire: total war until they get a new engine. Ever since empire all melee combat has been 1v1 and there hasn't been any real unit collision, units just try to stay out of the way.

IPlayPCTooMuch Thanks for your response. Yeah, I love Rome Total War a lot. I'm currently trying to get into Age of Empires II, but I'm having a hard time getting it to work.

jfl125 Rome: Total War and Medieval 2 were the best in the series.

It's too Anglicized, Like the R is not "errr", it's "rhrhrhr" like how a dog growls. The ae is pronounced as "A-e" not "ay". Though, it's still good.

I'm trying to study latin

kevin Patterson, oh, I'm sorry. 😳

Oh, say! can you see by the dawn's early light What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming; Whose broad stripes and bright stars, through the perilous fight, O'er the ramparts we watched were so gallantly streaming? And the rocket's red glare, the bombs bursting in air, Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there: Oh, say! does that star-spangled banner yet wave O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave? On the shore, dimly seen through the mists of the deep, Where the foe's haughty host in dread silence reposes, What is that which the breeze, o'er the towering steep, As it fitfully blows, half conceals, half discloses? Now it catches the gleam of the morning's first beam, In fully glory reflected now shines in the stream: 'Tis the star-spangled banner! Oh, long may it wave O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave! And where is that band who so vauntingly swore That the havoc of war and the battle's confusion A home and a country should leave us no more? Their blood has washed out their foul footsteps' pollution! No refuge could save the hireling and slave From the terror of flight or the gloom of the grave: And the star-spangled banner in triumph doth wave O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave. Oh, thus be it ever, when freemen shall stand Between their loved home and the war's desolation! Blest with victory and peace, may the heav'n-rescued land Praise the Power that hath made and preserved us a nation! Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just, And this be our motto: "In God is our trust": And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave.

BWY9000 What

Jericho Delarea same. 😂

Jericho Delarea I wonder what that woulde be like

The Two Majestic Animals k

Omega Deez nuts

watch: how to beat a munkey at chess musical

Not sure what to name it though. :/

call It Reality Check XP

Joseph1791 Perfect!

Joseph1791 What is reality?

Call it the power of logic or power of theory

The second one would probably just lower their stats.

They shouldn't explode. They should melt like in Raiders of the Lost Ark

That would be amazing.

YAY people like my ideas :)

Pretty good

Thanks I did because liderily none did anything that even envolved with him so this is what I thought :)

Like your ideas? I freaking LOVE them

These ideas are awesome! They would be so cool to see.

Yes, yes you are

Attack on titan yeah

no my friend no you are not.

Nope. It is kind of crazy how many of these principles are used in Attack on Titan. (With the addition of the outlying districts to funnel titans to "heads" so they can be picked off.) ^u^

Lmao no

// ANT // know right

*I know, right?

// ANT // it was ALOT better

Go with EpicLuigi24's!

YESSSSSSS!!!

yes yes

You can do that but you know, THATS JUST A THEORY, A GA... ohhhh a cookie...

Yeeeesssss!

I had an idea similar to yours it makes so much sense.

YES. YES. YES.

call of war is good

Birth of the Empires is strategy game

Andy Zheng the number of players on that game has decreased significantly

Sebastian Morris and I want to see how someone who plays mobile "strategy" games will do in c&c or sup von forge alliances

90% of them are randomised cash grabs disguised as stratergy. They are nothing like AOE

20% chance to turn an enemy into an ally for 30 seconds, if the blast is non-fatal.

moromillas I LIKE THAT ONE!!! :)

It could be a stun attack. They'd be too awestruck to move.

Dang it! I wanted to do that one!

K

The mind blow

TheHylianWolf Badumtss

Ahhh, I get it. Because, you know... Stuff.

Defenetly this one

Great idea :D

Those weapons sound really effective. ESPECIALLY against Living Things!

Me gusta mucho!

Seriously, though, I REALLY like these ideas!

The MatPat!

i love your skill 5

YES

Yea that's a good one

Yes! Like an special move or something. While his basic attack would have to do with theories.

Omg yes

Yeah that is a really good idea!

that's a great idea too

you are probably a league of legends player.

me? no,why did you think that?

Hey, nice profile pic, I know you got it from Nova Skin, I did too... but mine was way more complicated... you should use it for a banner...

dawsoncat6252 i'm sorry,but i don't know what "use it for a banner" means (yes,i'm european)

That makes him have higher critical strike chance

"stop doing this stuff" XD

now the question is, when the move is used, should the traditonal Gobbledygook you find in games or would it be a sound clip from the show? and if the soundclip, then which sound clip? him shouting 'a gametheory' from his well known catchphrase 'a gametheory' after someone normaly says the word theory, a different phrase or will it be randomly generated from a whole bunch of phrases (including 'a gametheory')

Sound clip would be AWESOME!

LOL I like the play on words there

omggg yassss, thats a great idea from how ever posted that!!!

lol XD

No, double tap and you do a rapid fire pat.

I'm not the only one confused!!! I thought the same thing xD I like mat pat but this episode is confusing. He talks strictly defense but uses offensive battles as "proof". Much love mat pat!

He is showing a replay of his defense

If it's his defense then why did he say "burned that base!" ?

Maybe he was showing that his enemy didn't use that kind of strategy and that's why he beat him

+Apples Captor he maybe maked a referance to word 'sometimes a good defence better than a good effense'

Or used as a rocket launcher that fires 4 times in succession. Like the opening theme.

MrFireCowboy oh, and there should be a rhythm to it like in the opening theme too!

So basically... Tippi from Super Paper Mario in a nutshell.

i suppose, yes. but what else would matpat have? a simple attack would be wasted on him, he needs something that matches him.

no, it wouldn't work. DNA has a half life of roughly 500 years. Meaning that after 1000 years all DNA is impossible to gather. No matter how it is preserved. So no jurassic park can't become reality.

Jack Davidson I thought half-life meant that only half of the remaining disappears, meaning that after 1000 years only 1/4 remains. But yes, I imagine it would be quite incredibly difficult if not impossible.

Jack Davidson Half life means the DNA decays 50% and DNA has a half life of 521 years. By this the DNA left from a dinosaur that died about 65 mya would be .000801538%. Not quite impossible as incredibly difficult.

Jumboperson I always think in my head that even if theoretically 0%, if there is a chance, it is still possible, even if it shouldn't be possible. I have a subconscious refusal to ever say "never" or "always" so please forgive me.

Jack Davidson a valid point, but didnt they find the dna encased in some mosquito that has beensolidified by tree syrop (i didnt base my knowledge from jurassic park)

And a third one: thanks for watching, where his enemies are blinded

Yes

Or the "Just a theory" would be a 50% chance on high damage

Also, Latin much? I wonder how it took for you to get that phrase right.

The only strategy games I've ever beaten were Halo Wars and Lord of the Rings: Battle for Middle Earth 2.

And Civ 5 isn't even hard. Try Total War. I got into strategy games like Civ first, theen TW, then Paradox GS's

Total War? As in Napoleon Total War, or are there others in the series?

Masterchief1228 Much more. But I'd recommend some of the newer ones first as they're easier, atleast imo. Such as Rome II, like you said, Napoleon Total War or Empire Total War.

YES :D

Ohh yeah

Nintendo already explained Birdo.

SyCannon No not really, they say it is a girl, but in the original super marios bros 2, the manuel states it was a confused boy who thought it was a girl,many believe its transexual, i think matt part can uncover the true like he did with the pyro

BOOOOORING! It's been done a hundred times over.

BongaFish Yeah, going to have agree with this. It's been done by plenty of other people already, I believe.

I think he already did during the video games are anti-gay video.

total war is the best strategy game and most original! Rome was #1!!!!

Doom Patato There were other turned based strategy games as well as real time that were similar, but the thing that made it stand out was that it managed to combine the two so well. Calling it the most original is far from true, but calling it best is just a matter of opinion.

Total War is good. The AI unfortunately isn't.

+Der Mann ohne Gesicht What does your name mean

the only problem i can see with a Total War game for the purpose of this video, would be the amount of time a single game can take. with the mobile game, he can perform several tests of his defenses over the course of ten minutes, however in Total War, it can take hours for just one battle to finish.

Likewise.

no fuck that. stupid as shit power

That actually sounds relay cool

Yes psychic powers of some kind or at least some thing to do with your mind

Teamflavwardog Yeah, man. Relay cool is, like, as cool as relays.

PYSHIC POWERS! YES!

DarkRaikon And you should give this video a better watch. At the end, Matt HIMSELF says "An ACTUAL Barrel Roll", also saying, that the attack would be called "The Barrel Roll".

***** now how would glados attack? Summon turrets and neurotoxin clouds? I'm not being a smartass, I'm genuinely curious.

Transform your enemy troops into food (potatos)

I hope that's what its called next year :D

yes

Yep

Congrats, you just earned yourself a new sub!

+Wyatt Hiebert I guess mobile strategy games are more popular. Although none of that popularity is deserved.

See Matpat, Bruce gets it.

+Wyatt Hiebert you are right..

he didnt compare them to eachother

That was automatic
