Expand 10 FP COIN BAR LIMIT

The purchase of 10 FP at a time when a person has zillions in Coin and three new GBs to level up is insanity. It’s passed time to add a button, especially with all the other buttons now taking up the board, that enables a person to spend x amt to get x FPs, with no limit. There is a Titan RQ, also unlabeled, another brilliant Move, that says buy 25 FP and pay 4m in supplies. To do this RQ, after flipping through 13 untitled miscellaneous data requests, one needs to load the bar three times as there is a ten fp limit. It’s insane from start to finish.

I also understand some people think that the extraordinary cost of the new GBs was to stop early eras from building them. IF that Was the goal, INNO would have made Titan era special goods a requirement for building the three GBs, as they e done with continuing on the continent map with negotiations.

it’s really time to lift the COIN-FP limit.

While I agree, it's unlikely as long as players will pay for Forge Plus. If everyone boycotted that, maybe they'd listen. Probably not, but maybe.
Is it not still limited with forge plus? The limit that forge plus increases is from 100 to 1000 FP when collecting your city.

Having BP's for SMB first it was my starting GB and I decided to lvl it up to 103, in total I've purchased 81,600 FP's. Remembering what it was like buying 1 at a time 10 is still ok. Since it's pretty much a habit to buy FP's daily and at 4.08M gold each it doesn't take long now. I buy between 30-60 FP's/day.

I wouldn't complain either, for myself at this point in the game it's a bit late to be beneficial. From the average players comments I've gotten the idea most players don't buy all that many. I've been collecting over 200M gold/day so I buy them daily.

True, but a 1000 FP limit would be fine for most players, I'm guessing. It would certainly work for me.
Sorry, my response was non-responsive to the OP. I got sidetracked by the second post. My bad.

So far I have only seen a couple of people with F+. I think most people realize that it's not really worth it.
When Dilmun first came out it seemed like a quarter of players had that golden frame around their avatar.

Now it's very few. Agreed, I think players quickly realize it's not worth the money, or at least it is too expensive to maintain for what it gives.

I play in H, so maybe that's the reason why I never saw many frames.

In Sinerania there are allows some players that spend money and some repeat spenders; daddy Warbucks as I call them has spent cash on several occasions. I'd guess still less than a losing night at the casino.

If there's no compelling reason to encourge players to "not" visit the game about every 10 hours, why on Earth would Inno consider making such a time-consuming and expensive change? It seems that they'd want their clients to visit more often to be enticed by the game itself and in-game purchases rather than give them more reasons to ignore the lure of impulse buying.
Maybe it's just me, but I never even think about the one-per-hour Forge Points any more. They're pretty insignificant in the grand scheme of things. I never, even in my new cities, log in because of those.
And I have to ask, what does Forge Plus have to do with the purchase of FPs with earned coins? FPlus just enables you to collect more FPs onto your meter than the limit of 10. The only commonality is the meter itself: purchasing those FPs, as far as I know, still caps at 10 regardless of the FPlus package.
Yes, as I admitted earlier, my mention of Forge Plus was irrelevant to the OP. I had a senior moment after reading the second post in the thread.


Although, now that I think about it. If you bought Forge Plus, with its 1000 FP limit on the bar, would the FP buying window then close after you bought just 10? If you buy 1 or 5 now, the window doesn't close unless that purchase puts you at or over 10. Hmmm. Anyone want to buy Forge Plus and test this out?

Why do people believe this game is intended to be free ? This is not a free to play play game , it is a game that can be played free but that was never the intention, Inno employees have to feed their children same as everyone else. How can Those that insist on playing free demand Inno make changes that suit them?

FOE is advertised as a free to play and no downloads game. That is how I was introduced to the game and I still see the same or similar ads even today. So, when you advertise as free, don't be surprised that some opt to continue to play for free.

That is not the surprise, its the people that believe it is intended to be played free and then demand more free stuff from Inno like it is some kinda of right they have. People get angry at players that pay to play,

lol, obviously it's not a business if it's a charity in disguise; can't exist as a business if ur not making a buck. I'm one of the players that put it to the test, 5.5 yrs of players and almost 800M ranking pts; no cash spent. After accumulating almost 200 WW's I always have diamonds to spend. Still don't plan on spending anything other than my time.

Demand? No. Ask for QOL improvements that keep up with the game's development/evolution? Yes.
Why do pay to play players get so angry when F2P players ask for game improvements? If the game improves for them, it improves for you, too. :rolleyes:

Why do you deserve that ? Why does Inno owe you that ? Why are paying players bad ?
