Topic: [117177] Update: Low Level Research and more!

[-117177] CM Arcanine [None] :: March 3, 2015, 1:30 p.m.

Dear Community,

with our next update you can expect the following changes:

Research for Lower Level Players

• A further upgrade stage has been added to the Research Tower
• All currently existing Research Towers will be upgraded by one level, keeping their tower in the same state as it was
• At level 6, players will now gain a quest to build the Research Tower
• With this new Level 1 research tower, a new Low Level Research tab will be accessible
• The other Research tabs will be blocked until level 39
• These new low level research options will provide static bonuses, as well as percentage bonuses
• The new available research options are:
  • Recruitment Speed/Tool Production Speed in the Main Castle
  • Production of Wood/Stone/Food in the Main Castle
  • Loot Capacity increase
  • Faster Research
  • Increased population in the Main Castle
  • Tax Collection boosts (extra coins collected)
  • Market Barrow speed increase
  • More XP gain per battle
  • Increased Glory gain
  • Lower equipment forging costs

Daily Alliance Ranking

• This new ranking table will show how much Glory each Alliance member has brought in every day
• You can find this daily Glory gain ranking right next to the resource donation ranking
• The 'resources donated' and 'coins provided' columns will be combined, with an arrow being added to switch between them
• This ranking is internal, and only you and your Alliance members can see it

Faster Troop/Tools Placement

• This feature will be available on the Attack, Defense, Stationing and Support screens
• Clicking on a slot in the planning screen on these menus will open a new dialog that lists all available units and tools
• Then you can simply select a unit/tool type and use the slider to select how many you wish to place in the slot
• Premium Tools can also be purchased directly from this dialog
• As usual, you can still drag and drop troops into the slots and type the number you'd like to use from this dialog
• Overall it should save a lot of clicking time and make placing troops and tools more efficient

You can discuss the update as usual HERE in the Discussion Thread .When the update is taking place will be announced at a later date!

Best regards,
Your Empire-Team

Hey guys,

Unfortunately, we won't be able to perform the update this week, so it will be postponed until sometime next week.

Apologies for not having an update this week, but we assure you it's for the best

Regards,

Steve.
