PLEASE!

-4v4 queues.

-Unlocked player color selection in matchmade games. At least use the AOE2DE system, where a team gets access to cold colors and the other team gets access to warm colors.

-Ability to swap starting positions (player number) with teammates in the lobby.

-Option for autoqueueing dwarves instead at the start of the match when playing as the Norse.

-Modifiable zoom out limit.

-Removed tooltip delay on the HUD. Currently you can only remove the delay on world tooltip.

-Option to decide if the Pharaoh and Set’s converted animals can be selected with the Select All Land Military Units hotkey command or not.

-Windows taskbar flashing icon if a match is found when the game is minimized

The tutorial videos for greeks, egyptians,… are only visible the first time you play a civ. They should be accessible from the tutorial menu like in OG AOM.
This is easier for newer players

  • military unit gifting - non ranked games
  • Draw on the map as in Beyond All Reason for strategic communication
  • Draw formations as in Beyond All Reason. https://youtu.be/8ogvWrMuMLk?t=958 (you can only see it very quickly here but essentially you can “draw” your formations for selected units)
  • Ping system with custom text as in BAR https://youtu.be/8ogvWrMuMLk?t=701

I strongly support this, especially 4v4 queues and color picking in ranked games, I’m going insane from all the red vs blue all the time
