Questions and comments for BB or anyone in the know
===================================
Seasonal Adventures resources and XP doubled
Are eggs considered a resource? Will they be doubled? You note doubling doesn't apply to buffs or buildings; eggs are neither buff nor building.
The Dev Diary says Tomb Raiders is a seasonal adventure but Bandit Nest is not.
The Easter Event info (http://settlersonlinewiki.eu/en/even...er-event-2019/) says Tomb Raider is not a seasonal adventure, but Bandit Nest is. So which is correct?
Expeditions and eggs
So completing a small barren colony expedition will yield 10 eggs one time, and not 10 eggs every six hours a part of the yield??
Spring Park
Children's Easter Novel buff - will this only work during Easter event, or is this a permanent addition to Spring Park? I tried it and it didn't work.
Explorers returning with eggs
Will sending explorers prior to event start, returning after event starts, bring back eggs?
Will sending explorers out during event, returning during Removal Phase, bring back eggs?
I'm still reading - but the 1st thing i noticed - is tomb raiders is not listed amoung the co-ops bonus section?
I did ask about that in chat, it was confirmed that omitting TR was intentional.Quote:

the new buff for the spring park isnt part of the easter event its already in your spring park if you look so is permanent
Easter is mma time; the new players won't get the chance??
Where do we get the tributes from? They are already is the game as someone on my Friend's list already has one (went to his island and saw it myself). They weren't sure where they got it from but had said they had done two whirlwinds and a pvp so far that day. Also how many different kinds are there? The information given is extremely vague (really nothing more than 'oh these exist now'). Could we get some more details on them please?
I have a Tribute building which I got from completing the achievement to do a HLT without using recruits, bows or militia.
Oh I see it. Apparently some new achievements have been added then. Thank you.Quote:

Guess I should run HLT. I stopped paying attention to achievements a while ago, except during events. That's also an event double resource, so I imagine it will be pretty popular.
Do away with the 2x XP! We have enough ways for players to gain XP fast. Those that choose not to level fast shouldn't be forced to during events, just so they can get the stuff they would like to from the event.
I had mentioned in global 1 the Easter Event would completely end to BB_novog on May 13th at 12am est., Nice I was wrong by a few hours, you have it ending at 4am est.:rolleyes:
Some may or not know that I will be collecting my eggs and on May 11th and I will be quitting the settlers online, after almost a complete 8 years of playing it. It has been fun and though why should I just quit the game, without giving away all my stuff?
Stuff that I can give away and not leave it all to a deserted island, like so many others have done! Quitting is one thing and rage quitting is totally another! I choose to give all my stuff away before quitting, so that it can give others the same joy it has given me.:D
I will be giving away all my stuff to players whom show up for my simple give away contests; guess the correct Number and you get them via trade office or direct trade.
I will also be tearing down all my frozen Manors, reg & imp silos, Mag Res, reg & imp watermills, Imp storehouses, gingerbread houses, mead and so forth. I will keep these buildings working on my island and on May 11th I will tear them all down to give away on my give aways. I Urge you to be around in order to win some of these great buildings I have spent years earning with $500 in gem purchases, not too mention buying tons of loot spots and being blessed to win. I will continue to do give away guess the correct number give aways all the way up to May 11th when I will officially close my TSO account. I have a new ubisoft game I fell in love with, called Anno 1800 + other ubisoft games to play. It is in beta at the moment and so that is where you will find me after I close down my TSO. Use the uplay to check out the Anno 1800.
It has been a long journey with its many glitches, ups and downs etc. on TSO and I wish you all continued fun on TSO.
I would like to ask and seek anyone who will be interested in helping me, facilitate my give aways and contests. Please, please, I need help. Send me an in Zeus server an in game email.
Please mail me if you will want to help me give away all my goods. Or else they end up no good on an abandoned island. Also if you want to send me a friend request, I will be accepting all; even the phantom lurker friend requests. This way you can receive your winnings easier. All players are welcome.
Thank you kindly, LordMadmax.

OK
So failed right out the gate... 1st explorer came back after event - i watched him come home.. ZERO EGGS (the one that came in after before i woke up - also zero eggs).
1st batch of collies - myself and 10 other guildies this morning so far. NO EGGS
Same for both. Explorers came back with zilch and no eggy collectiblesQuote:

Not complaining but just making a statement but, prices are a bit inflated.... lots of stuff but requiring event resources in the 10's of thousands (just to get a few things) is more than a small step. I know we have a long time to get everything and LOTS of adventures, but again, just making an observation.
Some Expl had Eggs, others didn't, but the Lovely doesn't look to be bringing back 'Max' Eggs.
I had no eggs on searches or on the map so far either.
Although I guess just being able to log on would be nice...
Multiple refreshes over several hours, several days in a row, and still not logged in. :/
It's not like TSO is a brand new game and these events don't happen every year.
Thank you for Easter basket, the tribute was a very pleasant surprise :)
You're welcome! Hope you had a good Easter!Quote:

Just an idea for next year - would it be possible to add a few null achievements that would continue to count eggs from explorers, collectibles, and adventures? It would be nice to be able to see how many eggs are collected from each after you have completed the other achievements. If the limit is set to an extraordinary number and the points given is zero, then it would just be a counter for players. Since the achievement would never be complete, it would simply disappear after the event is over as other incomplete achievements do.
I like this idea - saves me manually tracking how many eggs i get from adv, explorer, collies :)Quote:

We missed out on collectibles, explorer searches and adventures, several hours during the ares server outage and then during the maintenance to start the stuck Easter event quests which were a week late. A seven day extension is in order.
So many lost Explorer runs, Geo runs, Books (because the 'Binder *still* doesn't let you stack), and more.Quote:

Lose a day of searches/production? *shrug*
You would think that after five years BB would have sorted out things that happen year after year...oh wait, it's been nine years. :/
BB, Thanks for extending the event by 5 days.. That should more than make up for the lost explorer time.. Personally, I am good with it :)
Thanks for the extra time. 5 days is more than what I would have expected, again as with the Valentine's event. BB is usually pretty good at making things right when it comes to event issues.
sorry i disagree - extending something when you cant even access it ... is useless.
This is kind of where I am, especially after wasting all those Buffs on my 'Binder because I couldn't login to start another Tome. :/Quote:

Totally with you on this one.Quote:

Please make it so that the buff is not automatically set to the maximum number.
Here's the situation. I make a bunch of Gaudy Truce items. Say about 400 of them at once, knowing that I'm going to need to buff trade with a friend for Party Crashers. Each day uses a 'small' amount of that. BUT when you go to apply the buff, it defaults to maximum (like adding deposits) which is VERY bad. It's possible to accidently blow all your buffs and then you're F*****k cuz you wasted a crap ton of titaniums. I've posted this feedback before already about how adding deposits should NEVER set maximum. I've made a ton of meat deposits and fish deposits all at once so I don't have to constantly make small 1000, 2500 amounts here and there. And whenever a guild quest or any quests ask you to deposit meat, I can go in and type in what I want to use. BUT accidental deposits could happen (and its very bad when its set to maximum).
Please revert it to 1 instead of maximum. OR better yet- have an option for players to toggle. "use maximum" (disable/enable) - for those who wants to argue with me on why they want maximum. I would prefer it set to 1 rather than max.
(not just accidental deposits could happen but the game often LAGS a lot and doesn't take your input number changes, and takes in your add command, and thus ends up depositing ALL instead.)
