In order to help new players learn and experience the game better, the starting protection will be increased from 24 hours to 7 days.

So in a war, an alliance could make a multi and have a 7 days safehouse? Also. most of the new players do PvP to complete the glory quests so they can level up. Making it 7 days is an exaggeration, maybe you guys should decrease it to 2 or 3 days.

Pretty sure most good alliances have 3-4 birds for 2 months so it isn't really an issue.

Yeah but giving them protection for a week and then asking them at about level 15 to get 5 glory? If BC/FC is not up, how do you think they'll get it? Lol

We hear nothing from goodgame for weeks, months sometimes, and then they present us with tiny and pointless updates...

What the f****ng hell are you doing with your time goodgame, do you only have 2 guys working on the game?? Fix berimond and the ally tournament already FFS, or at least tell us how far along you are instead of keeping us in the dark!

And how about all the cheating and exploiting that goes on in this game, why don't you respond to that? How many times do we have to scream it at you, so you can get it through your thick skulls?

What an utterly worthless company you are!!  

Hi @MrKennyKRH (SKN1)

I believe this is a contradiction in terms; One reason there isn't much going on at the moment in terms of updates is because the team is focussing on getting the things you've mentioned sorted/fixed.

I'd also point out that when there were updates every week or so, players complained constantly that there were far too many updates, this feedback was taken onboard and now the updates/optimisations should be of a higher quality but potentially a lower quantity.

Berimond WILL be coming back, and we should see it back in the game within the next 2 months. I don't think that the alliance tournament is currently broken, we just haven't seen it recently.

I hope that clears some things up for you

You consider this update a higher quality update? This update is pointless.

And saying berimond will be back within 2 months is worth nothing. Why 2 months, why are you having issues with fixing it, why is it taking this long? GIVE US PROPER FEEDBACK. There are multiple threads each week asking where berimond is. That's because you don't give proper feedback and simply choose to be silent.  

And the ally tournament is a broken mess, cause of cheaters who stack castles. There is no point in the ally tournament unless you cheat. Just shows how worthless goodgame is, that they haven't fix those issue, even though they have had months upon months upon months to do so.

@BM ang1243 From what I heard when listening to the last podcast you are correct in it not being broken but they said due to glory boosting , and I am certain you know what that is , they are currently choosing not to run it.

So far, the game seems to run about the same.....except now there is a ".00" after all the building levels, all of troop numbers, my coins, my rubies, ruby offers, and my experience....also stuff like alliance member numbers, smithy levels, general stuff that's a solid number and doesn't get rounded to begin with.....just an overall headache to look at....Maybe remove the ".00" on stuff that doesn't need it

Autofill no longer works properly now either...either puts melee in middle, or ranged with no mantlets

Hello!
I want to ask did you maybe forgot about original Berimond Event?

They said it's bugged and they don't have an ETA.

I like the improved speed of the update BUT WHY DOES EVERY NUMBER HAVE .00 ON THE END OF IT ON A CHROMEBOOK NOW?

FL4k (LT1)

Well, now i have to refresh browser every minute, just to see if there are any attacks on alliance members, and how many. Because new attacks aren't showing by them self/

Anyone noticed the autofill troops now no longer works, Just tried to hit a sand tower with 100% spy on it, and it has for some reason decided the best way to hit it is using melee troops in centre, errr nope I prefer ranged thanks!

Hi @BM ang1243

Another example of GGS' position of blaming it's customers rather than looking internally at the problem.

Those weekly updates were horrible, and just aimed at pushing out as much content as possible with meaningless testing resulting them being buggy.

People arent angry at frequent updates, ppl were angry at the money-grabbing, annoying bugs and the long response time on bugs.


When there was an update very week or so, what percentage of those updates were bugfixes?

You may not be able to answer this as you quit the game at that point.

It only took the collapse of the company to realise this.

I hope that clears some things up for you : D

autofill doesn't work so at least one hotfix will be needed 

one of these day's GGE will be able to do a update without creating more bugs lol

Nitro63 (US1)

Update seems alright, exceot for the fact that NEARLY EVERY SINGLE NUMBER IN THE GAME NOW has a mandatory two decimal places. For example: Granary Level 1.00, 2,797,607.00 coins, 1,914.00 troops, 90.00% done with recruiting, and so on and so forth. Before, this only used to happen with Puffin Web Browser, but now this is happening on my Chromebook and desktop computer.

y cuando se van a actualizar los LOGROS ya que hay eventos que están descontinuados

Vanish (INT2)

The problem with the tech tree isn't the location of the military and economic branches... its that you changed it in the first place,

LOL. Not going to happen unless GGS has another meltdown. No wonder GGS don't want to give Compensation to everyone...
