I would like the series to be taken through the world wars, specifically the first world war. If they could implement trench warfare correctly, I believe it could make for an awesome experience. The bayonet charges, the gas warfare, and the constant artillery barrages would be wonderful to play through. Although, of course, this all falls under mere personal opinion.

The second world war has been visited by developers and players alike many, many times now. But there are still opportunities here, especially in a strategy game. They could focus a campaign on the build up to the war, like the japanese territorial expansions in the 1930's that took place before that fateful day of september 1st 1939, when the war officially began. There is many untold stories of the second world war that could be told, it's not like the whole war took place in europe alone.

I can't wait for AOE4. Regardless of what time period they take it to, I'm sure it'll be a blast!

The only thing is, I really hope it's no future time period. I'm not interested in a laser show.

Yes i happy you get what i say..

I hate laser's and stuff..
i love the impereal age is wonderful..

i hope they wont going to ruined it.

OMG! Your a moron lol. Age of Empires is NOT a middle age game. Age of Empires has been moving up since the first one in the series. It started out as cavemen, then moved up to the knights/Castles, then moved up farther to the musketeers and cannon, and now if they make a new one will be moved up to WW2. And BTW, it is your personal opinion on the WW2/future age thing, personally I think it would be a great idea to have tanks and infantry, as long as they keep the same well-rounded concepts to them. I also think the pop-cap should be bumped up by maybe 100... I like having a lower population limit on these kinds of games because it adds strategy and value to the units you already have.

I agree, i would hate to see Lasers and things, i would dislike a WW1 version too. I most prefered the game when it was at the stages of when Age of empires 2 was set!

Your an idiot!!!

Age of empires will stay at middle age !
You want future ??? GO PLAY EMPIRE EARTH!

See EMPIRE EARTH ITS FUTURE GAME GO PLAY THAT mess!

Age of empires series will stay all the time same thing just better every serie ..

NO FUTURE!

I would prefer AOE4 to be set in the middle ages aswell, but if it wasn't I would probably still buy it just because it was AOE.

Age of empire is middle age game and if anybody wants TANKS and LASER GUNS then I would suggest to request for the next version of Rise of nation (Rise of Nation2: War of Water.)

I had enough with gunpowder in Age of empire 3 so no more guns, please.

And the idea of remaking of Age of empire 1 & 2 is great.

Hey Hey Calm Down Mate,

Age of Empire 4 Won't go into the Future so calm it ,

It might go into the 1st World war and maybe the start of the 2nd but it won't go into the Space Age the reason i say so is,

History will be wasted if they make AOE4 Space age because in the 18th Century going into the 19th Century was the Time Empires Expanded Outwards,

After the First World War AOE will Die Down For a while because there was a Treaty called
"Treat of Versailles" (Sorry for Spelling)

Which Consited of End of Empires, World Peaces
This didn't last too long so No Space Age

And If Aoe Do go to the Space age and miss out History then i won't be buying it

I cant belive it!

Its going to ruinned Age of empires series!!!

Age of empires is middle age!! NO FUTURE PLEASE!

You going to make the game like empires earth!

Please no future guns and stuff...

Age of empires is ... is... middle age game you know!
Stabels, Barracks , Artillery.

Please dont ruined the game!

You do realise we here aren't making the game, and none of these suggestions are actually going to be considered for the making of the game? These are just what people want to see, not what will happen.

I agree with Super nat556.  I think it should be made around hitlers area.  WW1 and WW2

Super_nat556 i agree completly but i just needed to give my view
