im just curious, refering this thread to the 'alphies', are the mountains and hills in aom the same as in aok, or have they been re-done?
i mean, the hills on aok, if you ever built a map, where rather square at best, and if you tried to make varying hill size, it was quite difficult to blend. You usually got a pyramid looking thing...
and the mountains.. ugh, ... i mean, i understand its 2D and all, but damn,... those things didnt even look decent and the color didnt match any of the actual ground tones for the maps...
so im asking, Do the Mountains, Cliffs, and Hills look decent/better in AOM than in AOK??? *hopes so*...
someone once asked me: "Why do you like Shakira so much?" I replied: "cuz..... *Latin beat starts* I LIKE IT LIKE THAT!!! I--LIKE--IT LIKE--DAT!!! *chorus* *HE LIKES-IT LIKE THAT!!!....... " <<<<see 4 urself>>>>

They have been greatly improved due to the fact that ES uses the Bang! Engine when creating AoM. And the terrain in AoM will be a lot better then AoKs.
I hope that has answered your question, Rodya.

Mountains ..haha ..yearh ..in AoK they looked a bit like huge termite hives
I was so annoyed that in singpleplayer we had all kind of good looking stuff ..like - banners - differen rock and stone art - ruins - meadow
..it would look so awesome if you could "claim" a mountainhill or plant a insulting banner at u'r defeated enemys town

As we have seen in several screenshots (and many alpha games) the terrain in AoM is terrific. I love it. The hills look, well, nearly real.
