Few suggestions for workshop upgrades

  • Hi everyone,

    it's quite rare I write on the board, but I think upgrades revolutionized the game and I think a few changes/fixes might be required.


    Since differences on upgrades are now a big thing, I think it would be better to:

    • Reduce the cost of upgrades: those are increasing exponentially and it's almost impossible to achieve a big gap on upgrades, too many resources are required for both gold and crystal. To have a real advantage you generally need a +10/20 gap on upgrades, which is basically impossible to achieve with such an exponential cost function
    • Enable doctors and tender ships upgrades to increase the life recover during the battle. I think this point would create a tactical change. (It will also let be more transparent the life recovered by units between two rounds)
    • Enable spartan upgrades. They are a premium unit, I know they already have a good armour, but allowing players to improve them might also be good for GF (aka selling more).


    Please, let me know what you think about those points.


    (I'm sorry if my Eng is not perfect ^^)

  • I do like the second and third option. This would make a lot of difference in the tactical aspect of the game.


    With the first option I disagree, yes for a smaller player this is understandable but for a big player the'se upgrades need to be higher cost since otherwise it will be too easy to infinite max the upgrades. For now the're is like a capacity limitation and for bigger players they need to choose between upgrading buildings or upgrade units.


    Some choose combat over growth and other players think longterm and prefer higher buildings and better sustainable economy.


    So with the first point, I understand if you are a smaller player to keep up with the big boys. But for big boys, its kinda necessary to keep the game balanced and interesting.

  • Actually my account is quite big and I've upgraded ram ships to level 19/20. Now to get a single +10 on atk/def I need more than 4M of crystal and the following level I'm expecting to go over 8M.

  • Just a question, how is GF reading and accepting suggestions from players? As I said I'm not very active in the Forum... I've also proposed the same points on the Discord channel but I still have no idea on how they are going to read/accept/insert in the backlog of the dev team
