Re: Plague and other caps going into effect - Market Reset N

Because of time-pressure (due to efforts on Main and preparation for the next Quantum era; and Facebook changing the rules of app development again), these updates are postponed for 2 weeks. I do apologise for underestimating the workload and missing the date.

Thank you; all feedback so far will be taken into account when working on the updates.

All accounts be frozen for 2 weeks following plague. To unfreeze the account, simply log in. This will activate a counter, which will give you precisely 30 seconds to make any necessary conversions before losing 50% of the units that you have in excess of the plague limit.

Afterwards, the plague will be applied as planned.





(Wouldn't this be great?)
Not really. It means they would be telling you that you HAVE to play our way and we don't care what you have planned. You would have no choice but to sell if you were to lose half your units for no reason, and people worked hard for them. Some people paid for them, so if they were to just be deleted it would either force refunds or potential threats for lawsuits etc (sounds stupid but it's possible)... For some it might be worth it not to trade them in and get income from them as they drop off (might get more that way than the trade). As for the rest of the post, not bad ideas. Having a freeze until your next log-on would be good, because not everyone can get on right at turnover. Having some time to trade in your units would give you time to plan and allocate too (We cannot plan now because we don't yet know the rates).

I am not worried about it. Gives me some more time to keep my massive army and save for the inevitable loss of naq generation. I am excited to see what changes this brings to the game. Hopefully it is done right and we don't lose the growers (Basically the only players left with the way combat is now).

Re: Plague and other caps going into effect - Market Reset N

Looking for confirmation that:

1) Updates will take place at this week's market reset

2) There will be some sort of vacation until logon setup to allow us to make the needed changes

3) Anything else you can/want to tell us :-)

Thanks!

Re: Plague and other caps going into effect - Market Reset N

Just a quick update on this, the plague changes will not be happening at market reset tomorrow (18th).

Additional development and testing is underway to ensure the best user experience is presented when the changes do go live.

The update is 'close to being ready', but not close enough to put it out live tomorrow. More information will be provided by Juliette soon, but as it stands, you all get another week of fat incomes and army sizes.

Re: Plague and other caps going into effect - Market Reset N

Alrighty... just 10 hours left until something may or may not happen in the game. I will need to sleep well before that, however, and need to figure out how best to handle things in game.

I understand life getting in the way of other things that you believed would get done if that is what is going on. In fact, tomorrow I need to complete a task that is already late myself. No guilt as I live in a glass house, as it were. Information is important though. What can you tell me?

Re: Plague and other caps going into effect - Market Reset N

Getting down to the wire here. An update would be appreciated since I most likely will be asleep before reset occurs. Thanks.

Edit: You guys are really dropping the ball on this since there was never any confirmation on when the next update will actually take place. 1 hour until market reset... Since I have no idea what is going on, my account is now in vacation.

Re: Plague and other caps going into effect - Market Reset N

I think I will just keep my account in vacation mode. Maybe some others will catch up. :smt047
Until the game becomes more playable it will stay that way. Not going to lose 90% of my force for nothing. If I read on the forums that the updates that roll out make the game awesome I will start to play again. Good luck guys!

Starting to feel the itch to get back in. It's been a couple weeks now. Where do we stand in the updates? Anything actually happen or is the game unchanged?

Not yet.
Working on too many GW-things at the same time, and also doing exams. :?
Will be here before the new year though, but I understand if that doesn't mean much with all the moving times I mentioned so far. :)
