sad not to see "fixed loading times"
Exactly.....all I want to see is "fixed loading times". I can't figure out any of your instructions to change my computer, and I'm not giving up my MAC and buying a PC.
I to very much want the loading problem fixed, I log on threw my phones wifi hotspot and have very limited amount of GBs and this extra long loading [ up to an hour] is eating it up. i will be out long before the end of the month.
what you have done is great, just please do us all a favor and get the loading fixed, and yes i have tryed other browsers, plus what you suggested nothing works.
Yes, indeed. When so many people are experiencing problems that work-arounds are published for multiple browsers on multiple OS, the problem is not the end user's device. Something about the game changed to cause this; one would expect the fix to come from the source.
I wouldn't do that. I connect (or try to) on Linux, Mac, and PC...the Windows 10 device has the most issues logging in.
what means 'Premium Friend Buff'? how does it work?
I have one Lettersmith and i never run out of printed letters... I am producing books as fast as the game allows me to do. So, why do we need an improved one?
An improved Finesmith would be very useful, tho...
When are we going to see the game loading issue fixed? I love this game, but waiting 3 or 4 or 15 minutes to get into it is really trying my patience.
mine too, 2 hours and game still does not load. It's not my computer when everything else, emails, websites, other games, all load within seconds. This game used to load quickly, but sometime around Christmas to Valentines events thing slowed down, now I cannot play on a computer at all. Too bad, love the game.
No fix for the observatory....still useless!!!!
You might want to try the following. When my wife told me about it I'm sure I was looking at her like she had 2 heads, but it works 98% of the time.
When your load screen hangs at the spot it always hangs at, note the time on your computer clock. When exactly 4 minutes has elapsed (not 3, not 5... 4) refresh. The game loads within 4 minutes after that in most cases. Once in a while it still takes longer, but I just refresh after another 4 minutes if it's necessary.
I hope this works for you and offers some relief. I feel bad for complaining about 15 minutes, especially when it's normally around 7 or 8 since I started using this trick.
please kill the love garden quest line when you no longer have a love garden.
please fix observatory for quartermasters
please fix the guild quest menu hidden bug
please fix loading times issues for all users not only Windows ones
re new imp lettersmith... ...nice? but would rather see existing problems addressed first, and my single existing lettersmith is underworked. cant see the need for imp one
fixing existing issues should take priority over developing new stuff
Improved lettersmith is interesting. Don't really need it. Wouldn't pay gems for it. I agree about maybe finesmiths (or simple paper), since I have 7 of them, as opposed to 1 lettersmith.
Premium friend buff sounds good until you get to the part about how long it lasts.
From Test:
Friend Only
All single production buff effects are doubled
50% bonus XP from adventures (stacks with premium)
50% faster production at barracks/elite barracks
Weapon production speed is boosted by 50%
All specialist tasks are boosted by 20%
Duration is 30 hours
3,000 gems
Agree with fellow posters, please fix existing features (e.g., observatory) before adding new ones.
Improved Lettersmith NOT needed, Improved Finesmith definitely needed.
I only use one regular lettersmith compared to five finesmiths.
BB missed the bus on this one.
On a positive not, adding tokens to weekly sub-quests is a good thing.
Get out of my head. At least you think they missed the bus, I'm debating if they take the short bus unironically :(Quote:

Now, if you can provide a way to sort specialists on the "send to adventure" or "send home" lists. Or group by type. Or sort by number of loaded troops. Or anything other than the random lists that change every time you edit the troops loaded on a general.
Indeed, Premium friend buff worth 100 times less, just like the instant upgrading for buildings. They need to hire someone for marketing. Sell for few to many! ;-)
Improved Lettersmith is useless too.
Lol.. used to drive me crazy... while I played.. Would often miss someone..
To help BB out, how many gems would you be willing to pay each time you sort?
PS - I get that everyone needs to make money.. But the way BB does it, I just don't get it.
I wish I had not wasted 125$ on this game.
But it lasts for whole 30 hours... Only 100 gems per hour..
I am sure BB must have mathematically calculated the value of all those boosts to an island like that of, lets say Evil_J, and found it to be pretty economically sound and well suited.. Just like everything else.
They have made their choice.. now we need to make ours..
Lets all quit already!!
why can't I get logged on since event ended
The only way I got through the event and can still logon is with Puffin Secure Browser. Other major browsers (that worked just fine before) like Chrome will not load at all or Edge have logon or loading page issues also... ;(
BB please take our word for it! This is destroying the game play for your players and unless that is your objective in the first place then:
PLEASE FIX THE GAME LOADING ISSUES NOW!
You have and will continue to lose players otherwise.
P.S. I am now having to pay for a browser that can actually load your "Free Browser-Based Online Game" <--- What's wrong with this "Picture" ?
No mention for fixes for those that use a MAC. Load times took several hours or not at all. Was not able to get into the game AT ALL over the weekend, and when I did, on Monday morning, the Easter event was wrapped and the thousands of eggs just gone. Lost any chance to benefit.
This is getting old. Maybe it is time I took my time and resources and found a game that is more stable.
Hahahahahahahaaa.. You're cute. Stacking in the Bookbinder? But...that would make sense. O.o It's only one of the few remaining buildings that *can't* stack, and it wastes a chunk of every Buff *because* of that.
If they were to make only one change in the game, that would be the one I would want. :/
With the Lab running flat out on Star Coins that's *50* days of production, not to mention the 800,000 Plat Ore and 40,000 Coin to make them.
Thanks, but I'll take the 100 Gems and Prem day every week, or RoA and Assassins when I feel like building up a few.
I have to say, this game is getting less and less interesting over time. It's only the folks in my Guild keeping me around at this point, not anything BB is doing. :/
There is a laundry list of issues and improvement requests that have been around for years. BB needs to get on *those* before launching any new 'improvements' that no one is asking for.
The lab is by far the worst source of star coins in this game. Bounty hunter on Mary gives 100+ each Baba adv which can easily give over a thousand a day (depending on how much you play). Also after level 70 you can get the pathfinder, which gives weekly quests and if you complete six you get 2500 star coins as a reward, plus after level 75 (see my comment about having a L75 friend) all XP gained is converted into Star Coins. So getting 10K is not 50 days but less than a week.
Considering the long way to get to 70 for Pathfinder, not everybody having Mary (or not running enough adventures), coins being as worthless as they are and plat ore dropping like candy (or both cheaply gotten through production/trade)....good enough to make your weekly 100 gems from the merchant /shrugs
But yeah...not a fan either. But hey! At least we have a new buff which I hope will provide some fine aged whine come next event.
Players will no longer receive redundant Mountain Clan Campaign blueprints. Any extra redundant blueprints in your inventory will be converted into blueprints for chains that can still receive upgrades. If all upgrades are already unlocked, you will instead receive productivity buffs.
*does a happy dance
i still wait to see it done before being really really happy, tho... too many booboo's lately to trust BB.
I don't know if this could help with the loading times but is there a way that the basic game files needed for the game could be stored on a players pc. This would take a considerable load off of the game servers having to pump out the files needed to load the game each time a player wants to play & in turn lessen load times. I'm sure there are files already on the players pc for this but I could be wrong as I don't know the particulars of the game in this way. Just an idea that could be explored.
This summed up my thoughts exactly. I like the game but unless they are introducing something new.....an improved lettersmith? Possible one of the least used buildings ( ok, 1 of the 10 LEAST used buildings) on my island. Was this a "spin the wheel" idea? Couldn't figure out what new to bring to the game and you spun the wheel and it landed on the Imp lettersmith? Also...the love garden..... Possibly one of the biggest waste of event resources, I have ever spent.
