Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition. Dec 29, 2019 @ 2:02pm I think some missons are insanly hard to. I play 10 min in the game and then get overrun by the enemy AI. The key to winning in that particular scenario is catching your enemies off balance before they are established. Once they are booming, it's extremely hard.

A comprehensive guide to all the cheat codes in the game. Just like all the others, never load up the game without your trusted notepad (urrr, guide I mean), with all your cheat codes written down. Ahhh, it feels like the 90’s again!
How to Activate Cheats
Just hit the Enter button or click the Chat icon in the top-right. That should bring up a text box. Type in one of the cheat codes listed below and then hit Enter button again. The cheat codes aren’t case sensitive, so all you’ve to do is spell them right.
Cheat Codes
- marco: Reveals the entire map. It works as a switch — on or off — so entering it again will hide the map.
- polo: Removes the fog of war. This too works as a switch, like so entering it again will restore the fog of war.
- alpaca simulator: Creates an “Alfred the Alpaca”, which looks like a Llama. Very high armour value, trample damage, and attacks with headbutts. Strong in melee combat, weak against speed, ranged attack.
- catzor: Creates an “Sharkatzor”, which resembled a flying shark with rockets launches on its back. Has a very high damage capacity, and has a 10 square firing sight line.
- furious the monkey boy: Creates a “Furious the Monkey Boy”. Destroys buildings easily, but slow and dies after taking nine hits.
- how do you turn this on: Creates an “AC Cobra”. Fires rounds of bullets, impressive long range, and high hit points, armour, and damage. Poor AI, bullets harm friendly units.
- i don’t exist: Creates a “Penguin”. High armour and damage.
- i love the monkey head: Creates a “VMDL”. Quick and good for exploring. Cannot attack but grant attack bonus to buildings if garrisoned. Fun fact: VMDL stands for Villager Male David Lewis and in case you’re wondering, David Lewis was in the team that made the game.
- to smithereens: Creates a Saboteur. More effective and faster than a Petard, the only non-cheat suicide unit on land.
- cheese steak jimmy’s: Increases Food by 10,000.
- lumberjack: Increases Wood by 10,000.
- robin hood: Increases Gold by 10,000.
- rock on: Increases Stone by 10,000.
- ninjaconnor / ninjalui / rowshep: Increases all resources by 1,00,000 (You only have to input ONE of the three codes here, not all 3. I have no idea why they did this).
- !mute: Silences taunts. That’s it.
- !nomute: Reverses !mute.
- aegis: Building, researching, resource gathering, and training is done instantly — for everyone including the AI. Works like a switch, so can be turned off.
- black death: Kills all other civilisations, except yours. Yes, even your allies.
- i r winner: Declares your civilisation as the winner.
- natural wonders: Transfers player control to nature, in lieu of losing control of your civilisation. It is irreversible — there’s no way to regain control of your civilisation other than starting a new game.
- resign: You lose the game.
- torpedo XXXXX: Kills the specified civilisation, where “X” is civilisation number from 1 – 8.
- wimpywimpywimpy: Kills all of your units, resulting in the same outcome as resign.
- woof woof: Transforms birds into “Stormy Dogs”. They are flying dogs with red capes. No gameplay change.
WELCOME BACK TO HISTORY!
The wait is over! Age of Empires: Definitive Edition is available now at the Microsoft Store on Windows 10. We are so excited for you to experience all the new features that we’ve brought to this classic RTS.
Beyond the upscaled 4k visuals and remastered soundtrack, we’ve found that these quality-of-life gameplay improvements sometimes feel like such a core part of Age that people can forget that they weren’t in the original! Here are a few highlights that you might not realize got added:
Fantastic New Features and Where to Find Them
- Attack Move: One of the community’s most-requested improvements is now in the game! Hold A and right-click to send your army to a location and attack any opponents on the way!
- Fast farm reseeding: With a villager selected, right-click on an exhausted farm to reseed it!
- Customizeable UI: Change the size of font and UI panels in the Settings menu!
- Full screen toggle: Switch between full screen and windowed mode by hitting Alt + Enter.
- Higher population cap: Change population cap in the game creation lobby. You can go up to 250 population per player… 5 times higher than the original cap of 50!
- Rally Points:With any unit production building selected, right-click at any point on the ground to have all units produced at that building gather there.
- Villager Rally Points:With the Town Center selected, right-click on anything you could send a villager to gather or build. New villagers created at that TC will head straight to that resource, without you needing to assign them! (For example, right-click on a nearby tree. The next villager will walk straight to the tree and begin chopping wood, instead of going idle and waiting for commands.)
- Select Idle Villagers: Can you believe this one wasn’t in the original game?? Hit hotkey . to immediately select the next idle villager and get them back to work!
- Select Idle Military:You didn’t build those chariot archers so they could sit there and look pretty (although, with the new graphics, they certainly do). Hit hotkey , to find your idle military units and send them to destroy your opponent!
- Unit queueing:Okay, seriously? You couldn’t queue units in buildings before now? Well now you can! Just keep clicking the unit portrait for whatever you’d like to build! Or, to take it to the next level, Shift + click to queue 5 at a time. Efficiency!
- Multi-building queue: For when you need a ton of archers, NOW. Select several of the same production building (e.g. barracks) by holding Ctrl + left-click. Then click the unit portrait as normal (or use the hotkey) to distribute the queue evenly among all selected buildings. You can even shift + click to distribute five units at a time into the queue. Hope you have plenty of resources!
- Right-click mouse scroll: Zoom around the map like never before! With no unit selected, right-click and drag to exactly the area you want to see!
- Mouse zoom: Speaking of zooming, you can now zoom in and out dynamically using your mouse scroll wheel.
- Go to Event Hotkey: Nothing is worse than hearing the attack horn and not knowing where the action is happening! Hit hotkey backspace to cycle the camera through the most recent events on the map.
- Walkable farms: No more farm walls! You can walk right over farmland and destroy your opponent. (If you need some defenses of your own, research ACTUAL walls at the granary starting in the Tool Age.)
- New default key layout: Building hotkeys are now mapped to the UI grid by default, making it easy to remember which key to hit to build your dock! (hint: it’s T.)
- And MORE!
