Hey! Love the content! Adding to the "I am trying to keep interesting chat, I don't have a script, I do it on the fly" sentiment you mentioned, i would like to suggest, creating a smaller video, like 10 minutes, that goes through the "rough strat" and gives bullets "do this, do that" etc, not going in depth, and then, post the hour+ long video where you explain and you do the strat! Love the content, love the game, love the entertainment!
I have videos like that in my tutorial playlist. I might do a couple of new fresh ones that are shorter. I did this new one Mainly because chat wanted me to :) Ty for watching
Been following this guide for a number of games and I would say it's a very good strategy. The spearmen (they do say don't touch the spear in the game) are the key to clearing early on. I'm getting my upgrades quicker and I'm now up to X3.3 on Veteran which you may scoff at but just a few weeks ago I struggled at x2 on Normal. I even maxed out on red crystals. Do the same upgrade path, especially for impalers.If you're struggling with the game, follow this fellas advice and you'll soon be loving it and building more Hunters and Impalers than you'll ever need. Oh yes, find a good map seed and keep practicing on it.
1:09:20~ my biggest weakness is macro, more specifically just the build/upgrade orders and some decision making. Its easy to tunnel vision and waste time on something while overcapping and ruining your eco which snowballs and instead of having your seige factory on day 6 like you instead im building it the day before the 3rd deathnight and dying to the 3rd deathnight. I've managed to win a few Horrific games thanks to pause and after a few random deathnight pathings which is what makes Nightmare so damned hard, losing those safety nets ontop of making things harder is brutal. Oh and banana hammock
I think you're right about calling them spearmen. The game may call them Pikemen, but what they are holding sure look more like medium length spears than pikes.
Banana Hammock🍌 Excellent update. This game is so infuriating. I can only complete it at around X1.5. I get too focussed on clearing and forget to do all the other stuff. Going to try this Pikeman strategy next.
@@netlon learn to use building shortcuts and Rebind keep /building menue to "r" So the i press r, then q, then a to build a gather hut, or q for a house. Also hold shift to keep left clicking houses several at a time
@@netlon shift leftclick to place multipel of same buildings, change r to build menu short cut, Control Button 1 market , ctrl 2siege workshop, ctrl 3 barracks, crtl 4 wood workshop, then change it to forge when wood workshop research is done. That is my setup. Doing something similar will save u alot of time. Building units off screen with a rally point
I play em all, but i prefer Cyrus, so i play him more. Pikemen can give a light knockback, maybe u mean that. Or if you run out to meet him you triggers his first attack that horrified but no dmg. Then he stops abit, you mean that. Otherwise i might have had a Sentinel that stunprocced with The pikemen? Or its the siege upgrade that stuns:) Hope tha hels :)
this guy puts me to shame. I struggle on horrific and I am pausing constantly to make sure im trying to do stuff right. Doing nightmare with no pausing is ridiculous! kudos brother
I cant build in this order because when I need to build a stone quarry I always have below 300 gold. Like 298 or 296. i am wondering what i am doing wrong.
