Looking forward to this event - Kudos to the BB team!

Good question. Haven't had a chance to test an adventure yet with premium.

During the Halloween event, all animals will hide in forests and bushes. Instead, you will be able to spot a lot of zombies lurching around on your home island! But don't worry, Eliot, the Pumpkin Master, is responsible for them: He promised that they won’t destroy anything!

So does this mean our settlers will be eating zombie meat instead of venison?

I highly recommend you guys go to the test server and check out the new server event and provide feedback for them to change it.

It's rather silly right now the way it is if it goes live. It's another balloon event like disaster of wasted resources for little reward.

It's a shame because they spent all this effort coding up the golem in the island and the mechanics of destroying him - but people will end up not doing the event.

heh...I'm not.

Question about the new storehouses: how similar in function are they to regular storehouses?
1) Will settlers take goods there?
2) Can it be the only storehouse in a sector? ie. if I demolish the regular storehouse in that sector, does everything disappear?

Thanks,

Qnyx

This year each player will be able to purchase 3 buildings of this type.

The improved warehouse providing x3 is a lie. It only does x3 at level 1. After level 1 each of the upgrades do not give you x3. Overall it's short of 2000 storage space at the max level.

Somebody over BB has terrible math when they were programming the upgrades.

A regular storehouse at level 5 holds 6k storage. These improved Warehouses only holding less than 2k doesn't seem logical if they go to level 5.

Can we have a solar flare turn all these zombies into rotting corpses? -- maybe have a pumpkin start growing out of them or a pile of bones decoration?
