Bored playing yet?

[RonEmpire]

Well- even if it takes a lot of testing time. At least its 'something'. Which is better than nothing right now.

I'd be on the test server providing feedback and be involved more in shaping it like I was with FTA content.

But right now there's nothing worth my time on the test server. And looking at how the schedule flows. I don't expect anything interesting until Easter. Because they're wasting so much time mucking with co-op and new buildings. They really didn't need to waste so much time on new buildings. They should have a focus group of long time players working with developers, instead of having clueless developers who know nothing about how the game works create silly new buildings and silly maps with awful loot tables.

The co-op adventures I'm not really interested in unless they make it worth wild doing. New Buildings, Kinda pointless if they would expand our island. Other then that.. Nothing seems interesting besides running RB's and FTA's.

Yup. New maps with no new loot. Only the bone church was introduced to entice people to do them. (only decoration. like angel gate. nothing special).

It boils down to which map gives you the most efficient loot/reward for loss. And they make these maps with boring loot tables. There's no real reason to do multiple maps.

With the exception of the new Bandits nest and More secluded experiment ( at least these maps offer you sort of alternate way of getting books or catapults/weak potions) but weak pots are kind of useless. Not sure if its worth the cost/time to do the more secluded experiment anymore.

The only reason to do say Nords 2 was for the frozen manor. Unique loot making it a unique map. White castle for stealing from rich. Witch tower for dark bro.
But with frozen manors being the more superior building you just sort of skip these other maps because the superior building is the same foot print.

But at the end of the day- you realize these building chase is not enough to be perpetually entertained.

ive been playing for about 2 yrs now, i took a 5 month break after a year of playing due to boredom and now i am back interested as ever in it. I know this game is slow but with the right guild and mindset you can enjoy your time on here, but i dont think i would be as interested if i hadnt taken a break, i probably would have RAGE QUIT by now.

yeah. Agreed.

They need to add more new adventures in. Return of the Bandit nest on how they give books as rewards was a great idea... we need more like them!

Throwing my two cents in. Not gonna name names but (romangodcamper) some of you babies need to actually finish your island before you even 'need' new content

Kidding aside though the development focus on the xmas event was well spent and a success, but you are exactly right the new buildings are weak and exciting content is needed.

This could be done through economic competition (could do 4 player adventures in competition with each other building the best economy on your slice of the adventure), could be pvp.. could be high end content grind if it really pushes economies to the test making it difficult to achieve with adequate production (sadly now improved pop building past 150 would be required rewards or something epic)

Island expansion would be fantastic but we havn't even heard them even talk about it as far as I know....

The epic workyards could be good content update IF they are given the ability to really ratchet up a selected production chain efficiently (should be a grind to unlock the most efficient level of the workyard but when done should save space and kick ***... and I am not sure I see that in them as is)

All this aside though we don't really know what the business model is - maybe they do have enough new people activating accounts and spending gems high level content isn't their best way to make money... compared to buildings without clear value.... that they can suffer the clear attrition of active higher level players.

That said we aren't all depositking where we literally do rage quit, so when content comes out we can always re activate... I think what would make you feel better Ron is to roll with me for a while on zues. We can work on upgrading a badass gold chain on my island or something ridiculously grindy where you dedicate all your work and effort to my resource accumulation. It will be fun.

I also think a lot of the burn out we all feel isn't necessarily just from the day to day of the game, I think it's because we have been lied to before around PVP and the hyper active player base is dying to find out what the plan is around the long term development in the game. With the pointless communication we do get around buildings and BB cards it just kinda serves to bring us down, knowing that the outline we crave to have fleshed out is either being withheld or worse just non existent.

We need a mole to find out if all the decent developers have been shifted to Annon or if the future content in Settlers is more than just bad buildings and meh adventures!

You're two cents was noted and then thrown into the Trash!

Have a nice day!

Romangodcamper must be a bb developer.


Kidding aside. Lordb is right about how pvp hype for the last 2-3 years ( and not followinv throug) have really killed it for the long time players like myself. And lack of news or updates makes it even worst.

No. I'm just a CL... in disguess... name... Bob... The CL... rofl XD

But yeah, They annouced PVP 2-3 years ago.. nothing has been said about it and no update about it. So they probably forgot about it.

I first heard about PvP during the closed beta.
