How does GGE begin the new year?
With an update where 90% of it is made just to get more money from players.
Good job to everyone at gge. (Shame on them, but probably ... the only thing they thought and planned from December to January is how to make more money, from players in small changes that are not noticeable or ignored.) *Changes in game*
Some companies who would really do something *wow* to enter the new year and impress/help this community, which is falling down *50% inactive players* ... would be to switch from flash to HTML5, to re-introduce  the two expected events  by the players (Berimond and Royal Capitals).

But those who carefully watched the progress of the game in the last year will realize that these events will come in the middle of 2019, or they will not be the same as they were originaly made... Meaning totally changed and uninteresting (ex alliance tourney)
In the last 2 months, I played and connected in this game for about... let's say an hour+ (total)

An excellent start of the year. Good luck.
As from me, 1 year of protection is cheaper than the money needed in an event on romanian or any other server of this game.

Wow the only way this update could be any better would be if GGE implemented literally one thing the players asked for.

We were expecting different options for troops priority for the hospital, not tools  :/

Some parts of the update the developers should not be focusing on (appearance items, castellan look, etc.).

However, the new and improved autofill will be much appreciated by everyone.

"Can we have an update where the posted event structure is really randomized so we have no idea what will come next or whether any event will actually be running"

...apparently a question we asked and they were happy to implement with the last update :blush:

More useless updates and additional complications!

1) Tool autofill ! never used in past don't bother with presets as i have a brain and try to use it !

2) Equipment - greater complicating game = potential for more bugs - more space needed not filters with leaking information stacks !

3) Subscriptions - ruby whale bonus !?!

4) Appearance items - not worth effort unless increase PO - never bought !

5) and the clincher - no FI or BC attacks ? futher emaciating the game - we need more attacks to encourage players not less !

Trying to be constructive but this must be Aprils fool come early ! UK 1 is dying due to new players getting put off by all this stuff - the outer realms is like how it used to be we need more like that !

While I agree appearances of castles etc are somewhat a waste of time and energy, GGS has a team of graphic artist separate rom normal programmers.  As such I imagine this is an attempt to keep them occupied instead of maybe cross training a couple to handle troubleshooting and correcting errors in the game.

I want to say that i like the tool autofill ideia, but dislike the fact that foreings and BC will not attack anymore, it give me some fun in low activity.

Pretty much another trash update. However, i don't agree with a lot of the criticism here and i can't say that this update is completely useless as it does actually adress a few things that i have seen discussions about. 

Autofill, even though i don't use this feature myself. 
I know that there have been people complaining about this feature, so i'm happy to see that they finally reworked it. 

Foreign/crow castles not attacking the player. 
I remember when foreigners were first introduced to the game. A lot of people were furious and annoyed over the fact that these castles now could attack you out of nowhere. Although, this criticism has became less visible over time as people have gotten used to this. 

To be honest, these foreign incomings are not that useful. They are like those RBC attacks that you see a little bit here and there. All they do is tool cleaning your main castle and causing unnecessary losses that i'd rather save and use for real incoming attacks and not fake ones. 

If they were to keep this feature, then i'd at least want to see it getting a rework, otherwise they would be better off with removing it completely.

All positive! it seems my little problem was somehow seen and taken care of amazingly fast. :smiley:

How about re-introducing the balanced version of shifter cast?
Think it will be loved by many players at least that's what i think.

Pointless update even as a subscriber I'm disappointed I would soon expect many people to begin dropping subscriptions.  If you're (GGE) going to ask for more money you need to give better incentives that few more hours of food. I've been playing the game or over 3 years, and it got progressively worst as far as monetizing the game.  I understand there must be a profit but I'm not a millionaire thanks for ruining a great game.

it is a lot that has become so unruly :( all these pop ups: P takes over the whole screen, and df and crows can soon be removed! why should we attack castles that are only around 450-600? and having to use nomad paintings or samumynt for them to hopefully increase by 20 no no, GG is ashamed of what you have destroyed the game :( it is enough to look at the world map because first of all, too many stopped because of this destruction of this game! you say you improve but you detract

Since GGS sold out to Stillfront Group a year ago things have got worse.  It's all about money now.......shame

[5024076] king24 (IN1) [IN1] :: Jan. 20, 2019, 5:30 a.m.
There was someone saying that there could be an update where we can exchange or something our old useless event equips to other ones...... 

Will it come ?

The Foreign/Bloodcrow castle lords will no longer attack you from now on.
Why not taunt like the khan, you can choose to be attacked when you are on line.

Because, what about the pvp aspect of the game that involves real players hitting your main castle? Also, taunting Kahn in a way kind of replaces the need for defending against Foreigners and Bloodcrows.
