So when can we expect to actually be able to use star coins? And what will be be able to buy with them? I REALLY hope it isn't lame stuff like in the guild coin shop.
PS. These are direct questions to you BB/Devs so I'd like a direct response.

Information on specific dates and what will be available in the star coin shop will be released at a later date, as stated in our Dev Diary on July 11th.

I want star coins for the XP I can't get from quests because I am 50.
I second that motion! Great idea!Quote:

I would like to see where level 50s still get exp. But once you accumulate enough exp to hit level 51 let's say, all of a sudden it just translates to "star coins" being given to you and you remain at lvl 50. Endless loop thing.Quote:

the dayb4 yesterday BB asked me what I wanted with star coins and I had to be honest, I told them I had no idea what they should do with them...
any ideas would be helpful, so when I am asked again which will be soon I have some kind of good answer for them...
I will check back daily to this thread and I will add it to the current list I've started ... which should be a nice start, then they will have 3 servers input...

I must look into that for you.... mind if I look into that one... may I use ur posting somewhere' else?Quote:

Does anyone else know of other quests that accidently got knocked down for the new changes... sometimes we must help, becuz there is so much inside the game, I'm sure it is not done purposely... would help if you could tell me the heading name of that quest please...
Running out of room on my island. Being able to buy or fight for additional space, ie. a smaller island off the coast, or a larger island farther away would be excellent.
Any quests that give XP as a reward do not give anything to lvl 50s in place of the XP. The quest that gives 24,800 XP is Bandit Nightmare.Quote:

Star Buff - Self Buff Only (can't buff other islands) - quadrouble buff that lasts for 8 hrs
Coin Buff - Friend Buff Only (can't be applied on your own island) - quadrouple buff that lasts 16 hrs.
The Wharf - Non-License Building that places on water (same space as a floater) - Refills your fish pond with fish. (kind of like the silo, except for fish) Works twice as fast as Fisher though because there is less space available due to island.
The Sergeant - Barracks Buff (can't buff on other islands) - triple buff that is put on your barracks and lasts for 8 hrs.
The Grove - You know of those trees that can NEVER be cut off? With this, it activates like an adventure but doesn't have a time period. This is where you go to your secondary island. Be warned, there is no resources available on this island (ie stone, marble, copper, coal, gold, iron deposits) However, there is plenty of tree deposits. (duh it's called a grove for a reason). Limited spacing, and is infested with the nature dwellers that think you are invading their homeland! (ie kind of like home island unlock method but with harder mobs)
That's all I can think of for right now.
Harbor: Building that can be placed on water and works the same as a deerstalker hut or recycler, but produces fish (without consuming fishfood). Obvious perks are saving building space, licenses, and no more replenishing fishfood.
A Bookbinder Building Deed: A 2nd bookbinder makes perfect sense for level 50 players. These are players that have been playing for at LEAST a year generally, and many much longer than that. That is a lot of lost time on the science content, that other new players are getting right from the start. This would also help the fact that the current bookbinder times are ridiculous and it will take years for players to max out all their specialists anyway.
5x Buff (with a creative name that currently eludes me): A new buff that yields 5x output on a building for 3 hours. This is a perfect fairytale castle buff that would convert beans to stalks 1:1.
more space :P
Hm. I prefer this over mine.Quote:

Jester's Hat - Quadrouple output on mayor's house for 8 hrs.
Fermentation - quadrouples the brewery or frairie for 24 hrs.
Gold Fever - Triple output for gold mines only that lasts 16 hrs.
Damascene Fever - Triple Output on Weaponsmiths only for 16 hrs
Mysterious Resource Box - Possibly get a Rabbit Lucky Charm or Gold Refill from this box.
Mysterious Decoration Box - Possibly get a Dark Castle or Witch Tower from this box.
i don't see more space happening, although it would be nice. i would like to be able to buy gem items or some of the buffs that only come around every once in a while. or even to upgrade the geo to remove stumps
I agree completely. New adv require a ton of resources, and I, like most 50's, have 0 space left on my island.Quote:

Its starting to bug me how long we are waiting for star coins. There hasn't even been any mention of it. Its not to good of a idea to release a resource without a use for it. I can see if it was only a one week wait but its been a while now. There should at least be some idea of what there used for
i use them to pay off high ranking bandits to allow me safe passage through thier lands
BB_Effiluna No disrespect to you or any other BB,
No Disrespect, I do want everyone to know, That BB here in USA isn't who controls content, we can suggest, the final deciding, I'm not at liberty to discuss.
I'm Sorry, Here me out please, I don't care if I get in trouble either crossing over, BB_SlasH he get mad at me allot... all due respect ... absolutely ... please :o (geeesh I hope I don't get punished for this answer)...
With all the work all the tons of dedication, I do not play here on Live, but I do and will push for everyone,
Star Coins..
I want this period.. and I am going to get this done so help me...
Do not Forget the Reason why We started this in the first place was ??? Level50 players being bored... Therefore - another thing in the Chest? omg epic failure.. i'm so sure ..
This is what i'm going to do for this game... and i'm going to start asking for help soon... becuz i'm so sure I will be needing everyone to at least pay attention and know that this Is conceivable... (lol everything is isn't it)!
Star Coins - start saving them do not spend them no matter....
1) Buy Islands
2) Convert to Gems
those two things period... nothing more.. my friends on every single server world wide haven't anymore room to buy Magnificent Res... so why bother ? Do u expect them to destroy the nobels they've purchased and put to Level5. So why were MagR invented ? to be wasted? I want 10 of em right this minute LOLOL, where to put them, geeee I have the $ ... no wheres to put them, ok so you see what I am saying?
Realistically speaking, I could go on .. and am not....
As I stated earlier... BB__Effiluna, Please no disrespect ever... hugs to you tons for all the work you do for us...
Since learning how stiff is and since BB_DXTed took great pains with me and we both learned stuff...
I'm not going to let up on this... i'm Sorry.. remember please, this is my opinion and only my opinion, there is no way any connection to Blue Byte or Ubisoft.

I am not sure I understand the logic of giving star coins to lvl 50 players for adventure xp but not giving for quests that award XP. I have been working on Bandit nightmare for a couple of lvls I think. I am almost at the required 10,000 gold coins earned from epic adventures. When I finish it I will get nothing for the 24800 xp a lvl 49 would get.
Something just doesn't seem right about this.
You're right. That quest should start at least 2-3 levels earlier.Quote:
