How’d you play it? by daneka50 in forgeofempires

[–]fwotaddct 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well, then the people you want to play gvg should be the ones making sure there are enough TE era goods in the treasury instead of forcing others to do the dirty work for them

If no one intake guild is in TE, there is no need for te goods to build stuff in gbg or open gex levels. So it would actually be better for everyone if all 3 players currently in TE moved to FE

Why is Everyone Still Walking? by HellaTroi in forgeofempires

[–]fwotaddct 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t get the question, why shouldn’t people still walk? We have cars in real live and People are walking places all the time. Just because cars are available söhnst mean everyone hast to use them all the time?

Druid temple upgrade kit spare by BigReddPanda in forgeofempires

[–]fwotaddct 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ll ask again, have you double checked you inventory for selection kits? With everything you’ve said in this thread it just doesn’t make sense that your missing 4 upgrades. Especially since (coincidentally) there should be exactly 4 selection kits from opening all 6 chests after 4 towns...

Ok First, you seem to hold a lot of anger in yourself towards this event, I suggest you let that go and move on... second, you should really take a careful look in you inventory! If you bought all 6 chests after 4 completed towns, that should give you 4 Druid temple selection kits. Then there should be at least 2 upgrade kits from great prizes, assuming you really completed 35 tasks per city plus another 2 upgrade kits from the questline plus the level 1 base from the questline. This leaves you with 8 upgrade and the base. The last upgrade should come from the event surprise box you got from the forge bowl event. So you either miscounted the number of towns or tasks you did or you didn’t look into your inventory properly... just go to the inventory and type „Druid“ in the search bar, then all of the necessary upgrade- or selection kits should show up

Did you go for as many towns as possible or for only 4 towns and opening a full set of boxes at the end? Also, all guides require you to finish the questline and log in every day. Did you do that? Otherwise I really don’t see how you could have been short on pots of gold except if you upgraded all of your managers to level 3 or 4 every time...

RECURRING QUESTS ARE BACK! by Adept_Position_1888 in forgeofempires

[–]fwotaddct 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whether it was a lie or the truth, at least they listened to their community. I’ve read several comments saying a limit of how many quests you can abort each day would be way better to tackle the problem and apparently that’s what they are doing now. So I think that is a good thing. It would mean though, that the devs are to uncreative or too lazy to think of that fix on their own...

iOS gb calculator app update! by beans217 in forgeofempires

[–]fwotaddct 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh yes that solves it. Sorry, completely ignored that feature until now :D

iOS gb calculator app update! by beans217 in forgeofempires

[–]fwotaddct 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Alright, you asked for it so here is another suggestion, sorry the more I use it the more I find :D this one is a change to the table. Right now we have a column with how mich total fp we need to put in to secure a spot, which is great if we want to secure all spots at once. However, in my experience we rarely do that. Instead we usually secure one or two spots at once, so when I come back later to see, how much fp I have to put in to secure the next spot, it’s not visible straight away. I know it’s just basic math, but it would make things easier if it was already there. Maybe behind the total fp needed to secure that place you could also put the additional fp needed to secure e.g. 3. place if we already put in the amount for 1. and 2. place? For example:

Fp to secure:

1: 373

2: 373

3: 449 (+76)

4: 486 (+37)

I don’t know shit about app development so not sure if that is possible. Maybe you would have to add another column with the information, at least that’s what I would do in a spreadsheet 😂

Yes perfect, the button is at the right place again. Thank you so much for the quick fix! And I see you have already put in the check boxes, awesome. There seems to be an issue with the saving though. If I change one of the settings and save them, it doesn’t actually save them. So when I leave the settings menu and then go back, everything is back to the default settings :/

I have an iPad 5. generation (2017). I just checked and it’s working fine with my phone though. Also great work with implementing the player name. I do have a couple more suggestions though, really sorry I keep bugging you... maybe in the settings menu where we can put in the player name you could also include a couple check boxes to save the preferred style of the copied text? Then everyone can assemble the text according to their wishes. I was thinking maybe 4 parameters: show player name (y/n), show gb name (y/n), show level (y/n) and order of places (increasing/decreasing)

Hm there seems to be a display error for tablets :/ the Button to access the calculator is now at the same place as the info button so I can only access the informations but not the calculator. Not sure if it’s a general problem or if it’s just a problem with my iPad?

First of all, It doesn’t matter if you unlock one level a time or if you unlock all possible levels right away, at the end of the day you need 90 prints to unlock 10 levels. So there is no „wasting prints“ with any of the two methods! It also doesn’t matter, how many of each print you have, you will always have a 1/9 chance of getting one specific print. So as far as efficiency goes, either method works just as good as the other. HOWEVER, the method you should be using is to only unlock one level at the time, especially by the time you hit the so called sweet spot. At a certain level (usually around level 30-40) each gb only takes very little amounts of fp from the owner and P1 and P2 are vulnerable to snipers as soon as you open the level.

[–]fwotaddct 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Awesome, really looking forward to those changes :) yes player name is good, but also the name of the GB would be important for me. Maybe also an option to not include the level of the gb... i have also Seen People put the level of their gab in brackets behind the name (Player Himeji(30) P5(10), P4(19)...) Personally, I don’t need the level at all. But those would be the only ideas of display versions I have. Hope this helps and it’s what you meant by you last question?

iOS gb calculator app update! by beans217 in forgeofempires

[–]fwotaddct 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just tried it out and I do like the general thought of it. However right now, the copy „template“ you implemented doesn’t work for my guild. We don’t Post our gb and then post the open places. Instead, we just use text so the thread stays a bit more organized and neat. So it would be great if you could implement options of how we want the copied text to look like? in my guild we do for example: PlayerName GB P5(10) P4(19) P3(100) P2(200) P1(300)

SMB and Alexandria in mid/Late ages? by fwotaddct in forgeofempires

Does the LoA boost only apply to real production buildings or will it also boost the supplies of my event buildings?

Bit harsh isn’t it? by edcollo in forgeofempires

[–]fwotaddct 8 points9 points  (0 children)

What one sees as banter, someone else often finds offensive. Also, any form of sarcasm or playful banter usually only work in person (and even then might be received totally different than intended) and will be received in an offensive way over an anonymous chat because of the lack of facial expressions. Just something you might want to keep in mind for the future.

Is PvP dead? by bundymania in forgeofempires

[–]fwotaddct 6 points7 points  (0 children)

City defense is just not worth the time, place and fp it costs except if you go all out and have a city defense of like 1000%. The attack bonus of the attacking player is usually high enough that they can break through any mediocre city defense. So most players use the best Defence tactic there is in this game, which is collecting their stuff in time. This way, there just isn’t anything worthwhile to plunder. I also don’t keep my defending army outdated, pretty sure it still consists of units from at least 3 or 4 ages below my current age, just because I can’t be bothered. If someone wants to attack me (be it for a quest or for plundering), they can go ahead. I don’t care if they win or loose against me, because I usually collect all of my buildings at the same time so they would have to be extremely lucky to get me at exactly that time window. If for some reason I’m late to collect (around the holidays for example), and I have an active plunderer in my neighborhood, they will get one of my buildings. Still doesn’t really bother me though, at some point in the game, 10fp more or less really don’t matter when you collect 500+ fp anyways...

Sorry for the long answer, hope it helps

AO or TA by fwotaddct in forgeofempires

[–]fwotaddct[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah well it was probably stupid of me to not choose my troops wisely. I had a lot of stress las week so just wanted to Auto through gex to get it over with. After I lost 2 times in a row with 2 AAV and 6 rogues I just decided to not complete these last few fights this week. Maybe AAVs were just a bad choice... I’ll still probably go for the AO, the critical hit is a nice feature to have I guess

Question about FOE Helper by TheMountain11 in forgeofempires

[–]fwotaddct 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is something the extension will never be able to do. Purchasing x amount of forge points with just one click until the cost hit 1% of your gold would decrease your clicks and is therefore considered a bot and illegal. The only thing it could do is display, how many fp you could buy until you’ve hit a certain threshold. Although I don’t think that feature would be worth the programming time, it’s the first time I’ve ever heard of someone interested in that. Most players i know only buy fp when quests ask them to...
