Infinite Horizons 2

  • No extra building spots at this time. Hopefully we get 2 more soon.

    I strongly disagree.

    We have way enough building spots for one new building

    CF is actually mandatory since the cap is removed and so is the workshop, so two new building slots should be added.

    For once I agree with you. We should never have to delete a town to build a new feature designed to make GF more ambro.

    Well in a big war some of us have 4 level 40 warehouses and right now theres lots of big wars and you wont survive without them.

    I understand the point but the issue here is not the number of buildings spots but the ressources secured.

    What is 19 300 ressources secured (Warehouse lvl 40) when everyone using millions of ressources ?

    You may not like me, but you can’t deny: I got style. (Thanks J.K. Rowling :D)

  • I'm sorry but when they gave us new spots, it was clear (if not written) that new buildings will show up.


    We have 20 spots per city


    4 are absolutely necessary : Town Hall, Tavern, Museum, Palace

    The 5 reducers are needed.

    The 2 boosters are clearly a must have

    Having a barrack and a Hideout is needed.

    We need at least 2 building for storage (more is not needed in general)

    I add the Chronos Forge.



    So we have 4 spots lefts for :


    Building needed in only one city :

    God's shrine

    Embassy



    Building that can be build depending of your game style

    Temple

    Trading Post

    Academy

    Workshop

    Sea Chart

    Black market


    So to be clear, except for two cities where you only have 3 spots, you have 4 spots for 6 buildings.

    You realize that Ikariam is a strategic game and giving us two more slots make no sense, right ?

    CF is actually mandatory since the cap is removed and so is the workshop, so two new building slots should be added.

    Au contraire, we DID actually say that ;)

    Am Anfang wurde das Universum erschaffen.

    Das machte viele Leute sehr wütend und wurde allenthalben als Schritt in die falsche Richtung angesehen.

  • I add the Chronos Forge.

    In the long run yes, but right now there's barely any need (except for completely new cities).


    Players who own 4 Warehouses are probably pirates, it's a price they pay for wanting bigger rewards.


    There are still enough Building Spots imo. no need to add more already.

  • The one disagree adding slot because you are playing small account and the need updating warehouse doesn't exit.

    As long as you update Palace to 15 or above, you shall see why you need more than 2 warehouse or dumb. When you try to update Palace or government to 17, and if you build 1 or 2 warehouse, the cost to update warehouse equal the res to update Palace.

    And therefor, if you can see it from like 1 or years ago, you shall build as many warehouses as you can. It cost you alot of time and resources, and then they said: No, we add one more vital building for big accounts and you have to have it because the game remove 20 days limit building time. WTF ? So now, instead of 1 year building warehouse to increase warehouse enough to update 1 level of Palace, gamer shall need 2 or 3 year to update warehouse without chronos ?

    The cost is 2 years and more if you update Palace to 18 or 19.

    This update impact more in above 100 million accounts. The small ones can't feel it.

  • 2 or 3 years only update warehouse may make ppl get boring and quit the game. That's the coin of new update which developers may not consider it.

  • you are wrong.

    With adding more power on update arm in workshop, add more researesearch future, more gold by shire God update, big accounts can force small accounts to quit the game by attack constantly unless you go to vacation mode. In 1 year of vacation mode, you shall quit the game. Thats I am sure.

    And No Forge ? Then don't need big accounts, only small account with Forge may make you quit the game.

    The same reason with hide out. If you towns is separated and has now hide out. Ppl like me will hunt you down for res. How much res do you have ? Many arm you got in every town ? Type of arm ? The time you off, I can make a perfect battle with ratio of damage is 3:7 or more, make you feel so powerless and dont have any will to resist.

    Do you like it ?

    And dont forget one more thing. With no cap for sea archive, no cap for update cargo ship, big accounts can go very far in map to get res. There shall be nowhere safe to play.

  • you counter it with 4 warehouses. Jheeeez it's a no brainer and i have been fighting for years and have held top 3 o scores for many years.If you give out no res on a pillage no ones gonna pillage you. Simple as that.

    i agree with you. Why have to play when its all you can do ?

    many ppl in my alliance think thats way. If i cant loot from you, then why should i let you be there - especially when you are near from them ? they shall wait until you automatically out of vacation mode and start pillage. Do it with patience. If you have nothing to loot, they wait when you have something. In the end, oneday looting give them res as collected res in month.

    When map become small because of sea chart archive, when the effective of looting more and more better because of workshop, then why not pillage?

    In pic below, the float is waiting for the guy in vacation mode wake up (automatically). Everything i said is real and its happening.

  • Well that's clearly an alt account.

  • The Workshop absolutely isnt manadatory for every player in every city!

    Most Players will be fine with exactly 1 workshop, for upgrading capacity of Trading Ships and Freighters from time to time since they won't care much about military units.


    But also Fighters will soon enough reach the point where Upgrades are so costly that it is again a topic about missing ressources, only being able to do one upgrade at a time, which also means only 1 workshop required.

    It's useful to have more workshops right now, since the Upgrades are new and you have much more Ressources then required, but that's only the case for a short time and the more workshops you have, the faster you're going to reach the point where you only need 1 workshop.

    You technically need at least 2, especially with infinite upgrades, because of how slow the workshop is to upgrade. You basically upgrade the building of one and do the researches in the other, then switch back. Yes, eventually I won't be able to do that, but it's taking longer than I thought. The more you do it, the faster you can upgrade stuff and there's a lot of cheap upgrades to do.

  • With CF and WS being mandatory again, no there's not enough building slots. We need 2 more with all of these changes.

    The Workshop absolutely isnt manadatory for every player in every city!

    You need them in at least 2+ cities until you get caught up on upgrades. There's a lot of cheap upgrades, there's no premium queue, and the WS takes a long time to build.
