For real devs, please remove the ability to build a keep or keep like landmark in your base!

as someone correctly pointed out above, petards are sorely missing from past aoe, they always countered this tactic well

Right, petards should be in this game.

It would have to be like AoE 3 that you can’t put the landmarks at a certain distance from the enemy tc and not that far from your tc…

Exploits and things of that nature should indeed be looked at by the devs but I still ask them to be careful when they change something like this, to fully understand the consequences and try not to remove choices from the playerbase.

We all want as even game possible but the fact of the matter is, it’s impossible to balance all those things without making the game boring to play due to too many restrictions. A fine balance must be held.

the starter tc yes, thats important bit of info to add

Yeah, it’s a whole thing… but if people abuse it too much, the devs will end up doing it…

they fixed it in latest PUP update if youre happy about it…

If you allow an enemy to build a keep-like landmark in your face, then you have done a major mistake.
Either let him get all map control for free or not had any vision around your base or had no military units around while allowing enemy villagers to approach your town.
Either way, you get punished and should motivate you for the future to work on your attention towards scouting and playing proactively.

Sure, that’s why they have to make it impossible to create so far from your original TC…
