Sorry. It appears as though only Windows Insiders can see feedback posted by other Windows Insiders, regardless if the Windows Insider is on a current release of Windows 10 or a pre-release Windows 10 build. I’ll leave the program and recreate the feedback posts.

Many people are having to move from Steam to play the game and those people should be pointed here if they have feedback.

Try again @pghawk :slight_smile:

It may take a while before this suggestion gets patched in, but I’d like to see different skin colors for units from different civilizations.

I want to add a suggestion to be able to host custom scenarios as it is currently not possible without manually transferring the maps making almost completely useless as I cannot host with strangers. I cannot add thefeedback to the hub as the Age of Empires category is missing when I search (Looking at what you did for yours)! :frowning:

I posted this feedback for you, giving you credit. https://aka.ms/Mmmqp5

Thought of another suggestion…

It appears that one of the best ways to share ideas and suggestions for AoE:DE to the development team is to use the Windows 10 Feedback Hub app. To that end, I created some feedback posts linked below which reflect popular requests from the community that I have seen on the forums over the past several months, which may or may not already be in the works at Forgotten Empires.

Feel free to comment with your own Feedback Hub posts to promote game ideas and suggestions. Your upvotes will help the development team better understand which ideas and suggestions are most wanted by the community. You are of course welcome to continue posting ideas and suggestions in the General Discussion subforum. I just thought that a system like Uservoice would be a good tool.

There is also that from you regarding the menu not being aligned. It is very valid and stupidly easy to fix…

Thank you @rhrmn. :slight_smile:

Disable villager auto-tasking completely for all resource drop-off buildings or just the town center?

Yes for all drop-off buildings

Give us an option to disable villager auto-tasking. - https://aka.ms/Vbz5dm

Anyone thinks Half-Classic is a good idea… Like, classic classic, without the new features but just the new graphics…

No unit making queue, waypoints etc… But with the shinny looks.
