Topic: [74682] Vacation mode

[-74682] Prdo2 [None] :: May 12, 2012, 7:12 a.m.
Hi

Id like to suggest to involve free vacation mode into this game, free from rubies.


This vacation mode would froze your account. It would be used in situations when youd dont intend to stop playing this game, but you are not allowed to go online for very long time.

Why ?

Because in real life there are sometimes duties and business that dont allow u to go online sometimes for more than 43 days (if i get it right, your castle is erased after days of inactivity according to your LVL).

The account would be completely frozen-you would not be allowed to do anything-not to build, atack etc., also be attacked.

Main aim of this mode will be that you will not loose your account after weeks or months of time spent here and that u can return to playing this game after longer period of time.

If it was suggested so many times I dont understand why it wasnt involved into game yet. Most of similar online strategies like this has this mode, i dont see reason why its not here. Diplomacy mode is paid and it is somethig different.

And not everybody is lvl 43 for me, for example its only 14 days now. :)

it's a good suggestion. let we say your on holiday, well i'm not such a weird guy to bring my pc with me. so a vacation-mode would be good, no attacks. no building no nothing. when you come back everything is the same, and you still have everything what would be lost if you hadn't,

This is supposed to be a real game and if the king went on holiday i am pretty sure his castle wouldn't become unattackable and freeze. Maybe they could add a feature to freeze you'r account so it doesn't go into ruins but then people could keep it like this and it would never go into ruins. You can always just contact support and they will stop it from going into ruins.

Contact support that's a good idea

I support this idea because I went on hoilday and came back to find my castle in ruins and I had to start all over again

Yes, you're right!

This would be a good update in my opinion!
I often go on vacation, in summer 4 weeks.
What will hapen to my castle in these 4 weeks?? ......i try not to think about:)
I can think of several options preventing user to mis-use a vacation-mode..

But in real life they don't have protection mode either. So why not have the freeze account option?

Please take time to read the forum. Use the SEARCH function using key words, as this has previously been discussed. For example type in the word PROTECTION and several threads will come up that may be of assistance....
