Topic: [372419] unfair play involving fires

there are many players that do not put out the fires but are still getting resources from buildings that should have been consumed long ago. i myself feel that they should not get the resources such as food so that they would be forced to maintain their castles in order to make the attacks that they are making on other players in order to level the playing field-what are your opinions on that people-maybe all should complain to GGE about this-maybe we might get a fair or at least a fairer game out of this

You get quite a large reduction in food production from fires in your castle and bruning granaries, if your food production would drop to 0 it would make for an unfair system.

Its a trade off. IF you are bothered by the fires and the production reduction from the PO loss, you will put the fires out. IF you are not bothered by it, you can let them burn.

Logically yes, if a building was on fire for months at a time, it would have burned up by now. But, logic and this game have a very tenuous relationship...…...

Food production drops by 50% if you're on max fires, but with the introduction of the flat bonuses, they will remain the same. So if you produce 60k, 15k is from flat bonuses, you'd be producing 60k-15k=45k/2=22.5k+15k=37.5k

So it's quite a large difference as it is, and 15k flat bonus is pretty generous.

@Venom (AU1) I agree 100% and always put out my fires for that reason. But, I have seen other Players leave their fires to burn. I have hit them for resources, thinking they were inactive or abandoned only to get a message from them complaining about the hit.

As always there are many way to play this game, and for some the amount of food they can produce while on max fire is enough for them...…...

Not necessarily unfair, if your Graneries are at 100% damage, you shouldn't be getting any food at all, unless you are cheating and have alt accounts to send resources to the burning castle.

Youd call it unfair if you were on that end getting burnt endlessly
