To be honest, most of us only want the event for farming resources anyways. Removing it is probably unnecessary.

Chasing the goalpost since 2014. I discovered GGE through a Dogecoin faucet rotator. Don't know what that is? No big deal, those are gone in 2018 2020. A long break was good. Highly recommended. I got too drunk and forgot why I hated GGE and took a break in the first place. So, here I am again.

The proposed changes would have still screwed hybrid casts. You wouldn't have been able to go over a different limit and that limit would be hit by properly developing your commander with all pieces. This resulted in everyone having stronger casts and commanders than the hybrids that are currently pretty rare. The hybrids were still screwed, the limit was just raised above where hybrids were taking casts/comms. Resulting in a 150/150 Invader comm or Kala cast and fire casting only available if you bought a fire station, among other issues.
I agree with gems allowing us to move past that limit, but they should be available to players that don't spend a ton of money on the game too. I agree, they could solve that by making gems that are available to all players with fair effort.

Performance and bugs have most certainly come down, thanks to the concentrated effort by you guys, so kudos for that.
Kingdom Res booster sounds like a terrific idea.
But, if you dont bring the alliance tournament, i hope there will be something thought out that will give feathers and pennies the way the alliance tournament used to.

Another observation about these proposed changes and some things GGE has already done is they seem to be trying to make it so some new player can create an account, get to level 70 in a week, and immediately compete with long time players and ruby buyers. This is flat out wrong, you are just alienating the core group of players that continue to play and invest in your game.
With all the bishin that seems to go on about fair play, bullying, etc I had a lil idea (not taken time to think through all the issues so don't shred me) Basically it would be to split each server into 2 sides, beginner and expert. Players start the game and build to say lv 70-50 then automatically transfer to expert side. Plenty of time to prepare, also the process can be really slowed down if they don't seek out too much xp after lv70. There can also be the option after lv 50 for those brave souls that want to get right over to the expert side and get rolling. This also gets rid of the low level multi problem hampering high level players by people being pests.
Enough SaiD!...
With a sample of players like you and @philt123 and other ruby whales we can see that closed beta is in "good hands.."
Fair play..
From you!
Just back off!
You began to hunt me in forum because i just had different ideas from you, then you just come to UK server... and first thing you tried to do was turn your whole alliance against me because i am "to slow" cleaning fires... well, to hell with it, it is not my first priority..
So do not talk to me about fair play.. even in forum you are a conflict person..
You should not be even in closed server...
Against ruby whales like you i use to give Zero loot, Zero Glory.. oh.. sorry and all tools wasted.. bad luck it were some crossbow and maceman running out of hospital..
It is my choice to do or not PvP..
And if i do not hit you and i am hiding under flames to not have a hit-back.. it is nothing of your business what i do in game..
So what you are afraid is more and more people run out of PvP...
And you have no targets cause ruby whales just do not use to bite each other...
And right you use to fear one another also..
Why you ruby whales just do not hit your heads against one another..
Ah.. Big alliances and wall full of pacts and non agressions...
You are not for fair play..
Even you do not know how to play the game: in two years of non ruby in one place i conquered much more things in game that you in all servers that you are with ruby powered accounts.. including permanent achievements..
That is why not funny anymore for ruby whale cause they just bought everything.. if things are conquered step by step like i do much more fun..
So it is you who:
You just talk what you do not know, and you do not know what you talk about...
The item "base food production" and drastic food decrease in all castles on August 2016 on GGS birthday it was because claim of ruby whale @philt123 here in forum..
So to hell with ruby whales ideas and suggestions, feed-back here, in closed beta... everywhere!.. cause they just will lead to the same: their own pockets..
It is regular players that know about the game cause they just learned it on the hardest way!
Not who buy stuff!...
**** and as i stated before have nothing against them as long they do not mess with me cause i just do not mess with them... and i can live with them cause i know where my place is... but just not give them the power to give ideas cause everything will fall apart***** right and this is all this talk is just for some................... ...... cause not all persons the same cause and still there is a lot of decent ruby players out there******
@MarchOfTheDamn
What is the max hoarder level?
Do not mess them up... you will ruin this game.
That is my most concern.
We also would be very happy if this was solfed a.s.a.p.
1. Data speed is faster, system has seemed more reliable, (I know the horns are an issue but seems to be a known issue and refreshing periodic does reveal the attacks which has made it ironically and more fun). Bugs are getting fixed and system loading at peak times seems better with little or no lag in my recent experience. So good stuff and I like the Bugwatch posts they are helpful and are well presented.
2. Easter Content. Graphics are always consistently good quality with good artwork and design and nice detailing, there has increasingly been a balance between contemporary celebrations and narrative game logic. Religious celebrations if reflective of the international and multi-cultural nature of the player base seems to have improved in the sensitivity of how it's handled. It is fun but there is often a historical context behind a celebration which can have a different significance for different communities. In general artwork showed looks like an interesting addition.
3. Gems. Needs a more detailed follow up description with maybe screenshots of the gems and equipment causing the concerns. Speed for example has a characteristic value limit of 80 are you proposing to limit gems plus equipment plus hero to this maximum or a new universal max of say 100. I wouldn't have a problem with universal max we can work round that provided it's sensible and doesn't make existing equipment redundant which seems to be the concern for many players. I think we might have misunderstood what you are proposing but more explanation would help us understand and give you more helpful responses. I think given how controversial this seems to be that this would be an issue that should go back to the test servers for more testing which is what you propose. In that sense seems test servers including the closed one that I was concerned about given the input of players we can now see seems to be doing it's job.
4. New Challenges - I've only just crawled back up to a respectable position after last lot of changes to achievements dropped me from twenty to past two hundred lol. I like the achievements and working towards them so new ones are welcome. I think achievements for Samurai, Foreign Invasion and Blood Crows would make sense. The resource click one is a backbreaker so please no more of that lol. I'd like to see something for resource production for iron, oil,charcoal and glass and some for crafting. Maybe something for support sent - I know that might be tricky. Successful espionage possibly. Plus something for fairplay, i.e one year without a suspension or some such. Whilst people will use the constant refrain "it's a war game" it's actually an "Empire Building" game which allows a choice in how we build our empires. The attack first ask questions never lobby is obviously pretty powerful and understandably so but rewarding some of the skill elements and balanced play alongside all out attack helps with game balance. If it's 5 million tower hits to the next award doesn't work for everyone.
5. Wishing Well - Sounds good I use it now so more options I may upgrade it further.
6. Kingdom Resource Rework - I asked for this and you sound like you have listened and will deliver so personally I'm delighted. I think it's overdue and will be better than people seem to think. it helps the looters and also helps the builders so not sure I understand the criticism. The idea that utilising resource production means you aren't active rather than being smart designing a style of play that may compensate for less time isn't one I adhere to. You can do both. If your resource production is good you simply don't have to loot as much it costs less time and resources and in my experience you can still be competitive. look at the loot scores in En1 this week and tell me those top scores don't represent a problem that needs fixing. I'm not saying that hard work should be penalised but I think a gap that big every week isn't good for game growth.
7. Resource Villages - Some players who worked hard to gain theirs are upset by this. I am on my third set having lost them and re won new ones twice over. It was easier then than it is now and personally I think it makes sense when more RV's are exchanged than capture. More detail would be interesting to see here and I think this needs testing but I am personally in favour of not disadvantaging new players compared to older players how benefited from easier arrangements.I don't see why players couldn't start with RV's or earn them through quests or achievements as their power and empire in new realms with some retained at a higher level won through conquest or competed over. They wouldn't work on the main maps which are now too big. You drop in the middle you have no chance against fast players and organised allances on the outers which was never what was intended.
8. Black Market - I have to admit I didn't really understand what this referred to. It's a bit of shock to read that players in top alliances clearly do know what this involves and are again implicated in this type of illicit behavior. Don't provide more detail as that just encourages more players to follow their bad example. Just remove them from the game if they are cheating GGE as well as the rest of us their money really isn't worth it.
9. Bots - Good to see steps being put in place to try and address this. It's clearly not easy and these things are a problem. If players didn't use them they wouldn't be. I think you have to look more closely at player activity versus score. Active players would engage on chat or undertake other tasks bots presumably just do one or two things surely that could be tracked over time. Random testing. Worth investing in if it saves you money.
10. Global rankings and leagues sound exciting like to see how that would work but good idea and time for a review to freshen the events up.
11. Like to see a mocked up example of forum of what the screen might look like but less clicks is always good and easier navigation to get what you want like going to a one stop supermarket is progress I guess.
12. New Event would be well received something a bit different which continues the storytelling or maybe a new realm might be nice, perhaps we could travel to the Bloodcrow Realm or maybe a rebellion against the Emperor might be fun.
13. I know people like PVP but given the relative strength of players it simply didn't at present represent a fair challenge the power differential on En1 is at present is too great top alliances are struggling to find opponents who can last more than a day. The gap is closing and provided the level don't go beyond 800 or don't move by more than say 50-100 in next year or so enough players will have closed the gap to make it viable again. If players hadn't been fixing the tournament the necessity for it to have been withdrawn wouldn't have arisen. Players are responsible for the withdrawal not GGE. Royal tournament didn't seem to do what was intended so makes sense again to put it on hold as player base develops further down the line will work better I'd have thought. It was exceptional during first three /four rounds after that it became dominated by a few alliances.
14. Multi-accounting - if its dealt with seriously worth waiting for. Hopefully players involved get the messages and start dusting off their t and c's nice to think they might finally get what they deserve. It is difficult but many players would be onboard to try and help make that work.
Good stuff though though don't doubt a lot of people won't agree.
It still doesn't do anything to affect the gap between the paying player and the non-paying player, though.
