Empire Earth Is A Perfectly Balanced RTS Game With No Exploits - Excluding Convert Only Challenge
Vložit
- čas přidán 3. 06. 2019
- Empire Earth is a classical RTS game from 2001. It was created to compete with the already successful age of empires series but with brand new 3D graphics. Low and behold whilst it did well it never really managed to reach the strategy game hall of fame in the same way age of empires 2 did. So today we ask the question if Empire Earth Is A Perfectly Balanced RTS Game With No Exploits. And to demonstrate this we will be using the convert / conversion only challenge in which we dont ever construct an army of our own and instead convert the enemy forces to our own side. Unlike age of empires 2 this game is already broken with many imbalances, cheesy strats and glitches all waiting to be messed about with by the spiffing brit in a wonderful funny moments highlight form.
What you have seen here today is part of a fantastic perfectly balanced series on youtube where I go from game to game and break them with wacky exploits to gain things like unlimited gold. If you enjoyed this then be sure to check out more. The style is similar to RT game and callmekevin in parts. A large influence on this series has come from Valefisk and The Killian Experience.

Title: Empire Earth Is A Perfectly Balanced RTS Game With No Exploits - Excluding Convert Only Challenge
#EmpireEarth #challenge #funny - Hry
I would one hundred percent watch a four hour video of you showing every single exploit you know.
notsae66 he's just gotta stock up on tea
Only four hours? Try days.
i could definitely watch spiff ruin games for months on end
Well spiff is joining the jingle jam this year and him and Lewis are doing some thing special.
If we send the tea could we make this happen?
I literally just realized Spiffing Brit is actually paying for the stock photos, but then adds his own "spiff co" watermark on top so it keeps the look
I just realize the same, before I was thinking that he was cheap
I think it has a slight element of "Fuck you" to the places he got the images from, because his channel was almost shut down a few years back due to a stockimage site sending multiple takedown requests for the images he used, because they still had the watermarks on them.
It might be a fuck you, but they have every right. This isn't a vague 3 second use of a song turn into dmca claim. It's literally the entire product they sell...
@@gert4577 It's not like they don't just grab the images off the internet themselves and put their logos on them. These stock image sites are con men of the highest sort.
@@gert4577 the story goes he actually paid for the rights, but his users like the watermarks so he left it on. His videos got taken down so he ended up adding his own watermark in the same manner.
Empire Earth deserves a remake. One of the best RTS games of all time. It's sequels were...not so good.
Hey there's a remake from the ground up in the works. It's called Empire Eternal. A reskin is also in development called Empire Earth Reborn.
@@etuanno THANK YOU!
I remember playing this and accidentally leaving a caveman unit sitting there while the rest of my empire went to the future. I sent the unga bunga man after some mechs.
I think the mechs died not to unga bunga's strength, but they were just so confused why is a caveman here
Yeah the caveman throwing rocks has no evolution so it remain the same

NEO Empire Earth is a ''Hidden Multiplayer'' Community. Its a community made Server System.
It also has some new patches that get EE to run on modern systems in fullHD
A few 100 people still use it from time to time, they have enough people to keep 8 player games running. I personally haven't played in the last few years but I'm still in touch with a lot of people who do, since I used to play the multiplayer religiously... Google 'Save EE' should give you some hits to reach the multiplayer community.EEKazter on CZcams uploads games of his to teach others, and I taught him about 10 years ago ;)
@@thespiffingbrit Well, i don't really know, only play EE with my friends, PVP and against the AI. Pretty fun :)

I loved Empire Earth when it first came out, but as soon as Rise of Nations came out, I was converted.
Edit, I vote A.
wolololo now you love age of empires 2
+1 for A
rise of nations is awesome
I always loved Empire Earth and loved RoN when I played it, but I could never "convert"
Spiff: (Builds tea tower behind trees)
Enemy commander: "There in the trees!"
Enemy soldier: (Sips tea) "Mmmm......not bad." [Converted]
Commander: why are you looking at me like that?
Converted soldier: tea
Spiff: "I'll let you have hot chocolate"
Me: *runs to grab massive container of homemade hot chocolate* "Well, I won't pass up this opportunity!"
Spain is why the world enjoys chocolate. You're welcome, Brits.
It was a trap you've now been put on a watch list
NEITHER WILL I!
@@scintillam_dei lie it’s thanks to the Mayans and other American cultures so go fuck yourself stealing Spaniard
I started this video, felt like hot chocolate, and got back as Spiff said hot chocolate is allowed. It's a sign! Tea gods be praised!
I spent 10 min because I have coco but no tea
Edit it took 2 minutes to drink
You know what else is a sign? Scrolling down, seeing your comment at the very top, and then seconds later hearing the hot chocolate bit from the Brit. ;)
Did everyone see brits face?
Wait so you got cocoa before he said its allowed?!?!
It was a test, and you FAILED
Honestly to my young self both the WW2 and the futuristic campaign of this game was some of the best things i had ever played
I think the story campaigns in this game are underated. It's one of the games best features.
The game really shined in the later eras because planes were so fun.
Same
Agreed lol. Strangely well made single player experience.
Get in the Potato Truck, Pjotr.
I actually played this before AoE2. I found this more fun. The wonders are actually useful here and the scope is quite epic. Not to mention the campaigns. I once had a play through where I can build robots but still had a rock thrower alive🤣
Same here, I had one playthrough I realized I still had a Sampson (I think? The prehistoric guy dragging a log behind him) somewhere past WWII. Hid him real good as an enemy citizen could've killed him with a sideways glance.
I only played EEII and RoN
It was in an internet café,I found they were the best RTS in my mind
They're much more fun than AoE series (all of them are great game too)
EE1 was fantastic.
EE2 was okay (the genetic or nano-age super troopers are neat I guess).
EE3 was literally painful.
Had all of them and played EE1 so much that a microcrack in the disk (I guess it was weakly pressed or something) made it explode. ;_;
I actually made a Cyber Ninja character in Cyberpunk 2077 when I played it by using one of the goofy outfits that looked more or less like what the ninja wears lol.

@@Corrupted i really liked 1. Sadly the campaign making community died a long time ago and as i decided to play this game again for nostalgia sake there are less good community made campaigns ;-;
Conversion towers are useful but when you are fighting 6 AI who are all tacitly cooperating against you the sheer number of enemies will quickly ovewhelm a conversion unit/bldg.
Friend of mine absolutely refuses to play it with me anymore, I think number 2.
I had about 15 nuke bombers, evenly spaced, set to patrol in a circle around my base. It was an impenetrable no-man's land, until I built up a ton more nuke bombers and raided his entire base in one go.
I've thought about it and discovered that most people seem to like the video before watching it
That's the true British way

Spiff does anything
Everyone : that Brit is up to something
I LOVED empire earth. The campaigns were fun, the game play was..... Interesting? I loved that game so much that I've actually played quite a lot of it, within the last few years too.
Ive been playing EE since it came out, over 20 years ago. I still consider it to be the best RTS game. The original with expansion is a masterpiece
For me, it's one of the few games I can still randomly lose a night in after over 16 years of playing
"cost 80 food"
actually cost 50
"see now we're down to 750 food"

He was under the influence........Of heavy tea drinking
Citizens cost 50 food 40 with civ bonus, prefered to play artillery with range increase and zeppelin spotter... and cheese the crap out of snipers add civ trait camoflage on them and you basicly have to stand on then to spot them even with aircraft.

What's crazy is that the Empire Earth 2 online community is still absolutely alive and mental. A lot of them use some kind of creative building mods, though.
I think I may have gotten to play EE1 multiplayer a few years before GameSpy went down. It was my first online game experience and also absolutely insane.
I always loved more Empire Earth that AoE, be free to build so many units and expand over a such huge map was sick
Finally FINALLY! You're playing Empire Earth. This game has it all!:
Shitty AI with omnipotent powers
God-awful graphics
Cheap outsourced dlc's
Funky animations
Hilarious voice acting
and yet for some reason it is still my favourite RTS game of all time.
And yes, I do still play it regularly.
Wow I wasn't even alive when this game came out XD
I can't believe that I'm not the only one loving EE. The first game's amazing in all its terribleness, but the later ones bombed, and EE... 3 or 4, the last one, was literally unplayable. It was so bad. But the first is crazy good. I love it.
The amount of hours I spent on the editor, making scenarios or just making 20 archers vs 20 future soldiers (because thats the amount my pc could handle) such an amazing game
@Dcard Dcardian @Extrodanary Anonomas This game came out in the year I was born but I still loved it from the first time I played it. My friend and I's parents had shitty laptops when we were 6 so we ended up getting Empire Earth and playing it for hours on end. I think the best settings to play on are gigantic map, do not reveal map and small/large islands map type. It basically becomes colonization simulator where you rush to take control of and fortify all the islands around you.
Vote A
Used to play this game all the time, but didn’t have the expansions. No priesty towers. But what you can do is just use regular towers and spec into range. You can outrange their towers. Prophets are broken, just earthquake them to death.
A - Empire Earth.
I loved the game a while back, so would like to see more. Haven't played it in ages though.
to this day, my dad plays this game every other day.
Legend
so i was watching this and thought. "you know spiff why dont you exploit my favorite classic game...freelancer" a game that was far ahead of its time and more then deserves a sequel.

Agreed, i played a round of Deathmatch justr last month. NeoEE works like a charm.
It worked for me
@@emilgebl8644 Now last time I played it the bots did advance. Though I also know that the what version of the game you running can matter a lot.
Damn, I just wish they would continue.. like at least abit. playing with my brother and 6 bots atm and they're at the same level now, about Roman empire level. I hope they continue.
Dude at the time the game was MIND BLOWING, not only was it a rts game BUT it was also a fully rendered 3d game and that was a big deal back then. NOT ONLY THAT it spanned across al of human history and then some. I have nothing but good memories with this game
Everyone literally EVERYONE always tries to correct me when I say I love Empire Earth 1 and 2... Thinking i meant to say Age of Empires. No sir, I did not I will always fire up some single player of this game and its sequel for nostolgia. There was a time when Empire Earth was literally the only game old enough to run on my computer back in 2003.
Lol, know that feeling. Over the years I have installed EE on many different computers and operating systems and it was pure random if it works. I think Windows 95 and XP were perfect, 7 had problems, 8 ran on one PC but not on my laptor for some reason, but after reinstalling the operating system it magically worked and on Windows 10 it works somewhat, but the graphics are broken.
I love when I see a notification from spiff truly makes me happy.

@@thespiffingbrit also, if i'm not mistaken temples prevent the enemy from lauching a prophet's powers while universities prevent unit conversion by priests.

This game was my introduction into RTS. Love this game and watching this video has inspired me to buy it again.
I *loved* this game in middle school when it came out. I loved the sense of progress you could get from stone age to cyberpunk. Done right, it really feels like a sort of god game, advancing humanity. I also remember mods to make the limits ridiculous; like 24 players, 8x map sizes, 50x unit caps etc.
So, it kinda felt like real-time civ 3.
I still have the original box and manual. I LOVED this game. But havent played since like, 2005 or something.

Loved this game. And it has one of my most memorable MP games of all times. Dont remember the exact details but it was something like 6 players vs the AI, resources where cranked up and difficulty was cranked up. Two of the players died out quickly. and the rest of us ended up battling for hours and hours. The map was clogged up with walls and neither side was able to defeat the other.
For some “odd” reason there is a tea shortage at my house so I had to resort to Swiss miss
I am deeply sorry for negligence of buying tea my overlord
Hey Spiff - there is an multiplayer community for EE still. can't say how many people are active, but the servers show up. It's called NeoEE and it's about the only running service some people think the installer is a tad sketchy and may have a trojan in it so be careful.
Watching this was a rush of nostalgia to one of my early PC gaming experiences (Warcraft 2: Tides of darkness being my first PC game). I remember having the EE Gold edition that I got on sale for $15 at the local Big Lots with my allowance. The massive tech tree poster was amazing and if I still had it I would certainly have it on the wall above my computer still even though I haven't played in years.
Also EE2 tends to have more community support like EE2 Unofficial patch 1.5 which fixes it for windows 8/8.1/10 and allows for more resolutions and makes EE2 better.
I think mandalore gaming mentions it in his EE review!
Me: reads title having played AOE 1&2

Thank you Spiff for bringing back this truly wonderful childhood memory
This was one of my favorite games growing up. I remember one game where I first realized how overpowered the priest towers were I had a small settlement completely destroyed on the AI enemy planet and like 10 minutes later I realized I had one half dead surviving citizen that had run off in a corner with no way back. And priest towers. Built a couple around him, then just kept expanding them a row at a time till I had the whole planet under my control.
