message: A number of sites were created afterwards to replace the Zone, one of which Gamespy, which has the same numbers as the MSN Gaming Zone did, and so gamers are happy. 
This may sound like a biased complaint, but i seriously doubt many people arehappy with gamespy, or even content, if not annoyed and angry. This article is surprisingly low quality overall, with irrelevant, obsolete or inaccurate statements. Superkala 22:46, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

message: I'm pretty sure they're called "berserkers" in the game. If I'm wrong, I apologize. It occurred to me the second after I hit "save" that it was possible I wasn't correct. --Aranel 19:13, 17 Aug 2004 (UTC)

thread_title:  Deleted Links 

message: Just a piece of opinion (since I've seen someone added the DS category), given the differences that can be spotted from the previews between the original and DS versions (the preview I've read AoK DS is a turn based game), it would be much more advisable to create a separate article, not a different section. wS 21:02, 1 Jun 2005 (UTC)

message: Why does Michi redirects to this article?
:Because somebody apparently wrote an article about an AOK map called "Michi" and somebody else decided to redirect instead of delete the article. I agree that it's not a terribly useful redirect, especially since the Michi map is not even mentioned in the article (not that it should be mentioned :P ) - I'll bring this up at WP:RFD -- Ferkelparade π 10:04, 17 November 2005 (UTC)

thread_title:  zone history 

message: I think the tone of this article is a bit unencyclopedic. There is so much reference to the first Age of Empires and ways in which this one is better. I think the article should be rephrased since this is not a series comparison article. Anyone agree? Tutmosis 16:42, 14 March 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Article Tone 

message: How accurate are the history notes in the unique unit section? It looks to me like most of those notes came from the game manual, which may or may not be a credible source of historical information. I'll see if I can research this more.Gamer.g33k 22:08, 23 March 2006 (UTC)

message: *The units section is ridicously enormous. From barracks to docks each unit is described, how about spitting such part into a new article. Another suggestion?

message: There is no mention of Age of Empires II: Gold Edition. The Gold Edition contains both Age of Kings and The Conquerors Expansion. Anyone else agree that this should be mentioned somewhere? If so, where in the article? Cyberguy410 16:13, 26 August 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  No Mention of Gold Edition? 

message: Hey, the description of the Petard (Suicide bomber) unit says that it's only in the conquerors expansion. Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't this unit also used in a campaign mission and the scenario editer in regular AoK? Russian F 04:40, 2 September 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Suicide bomber 

message: I think that AOE 2 should be mentioned on aeperate article; they could be spitted into a seperate article named AOE 2 Units or something like that. Does anybody agree?
:Yes, but it isn't notable enough for a separate article, so thinning it down and converting to prose is the only option here. See above Richard001 08:25, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

message: This game offers all its Artificial Intelligence scripting documentation via a file in the Docs folder. Also complete documentation regarding map scripting is available in the same folder. These things are completely different from the scenario editor. There are AI scripts available at heavengames and at http://www.aiscripters.com. Also AllianceThundaEmpire, an AI script, appears as a well known bot in http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_game_bot .

message: The image is in its current location is not fitting in. IMO: It does not belong here. Or the info should be increased  to make the image look fit and not overlap with other headings. Acetylcholine 09:12, 10 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I've removed the image. I didn't think it should have been here either. In fact, the whole section on the expansion should be deleted (I think I'll do that now...). For example, see Age of Empires III, which is GA/A-Class. They only mention Age of Empires III: The War Chiefs in the lead. · AO Talk 10:54, 10 April 2007 (UTC)
