Dear Kings and Queens,
We have seen lots of comments and feedback recently in the community forums surrounding recent changes, and would like to address some of these concerns in this post.
Balancing changes
Regarding the balancing changes to Great Buildings, we know that many of you have expressed dissatisfaction with the recent rebalancing, specifically to the military boost Great Buildings (Statue of Zeus, Cathedral of Aachen, Castel del Monte) which saw a noticable change to the strength of their military boost.
On occasion, it is necessary to make changes to the game that may not initially be popular, but are important for the sake of game-wide long-term design, and they are made with the aim of taking Forge of Empires in a direction that we hope will satisfy our player base. For example, we will add a Great Buildings enhancement in which the level cap will be removed. Please understand that this will not be added to the game in the very near future, however it will be implemented later this year.
As stated, these balancing changes are necessary, but we also understand that the military boost Great Buildings are significant to many of your cities and playing styles. And so, with the future Great Building enhancements in mind, players who have the Statue of Zeus, Cathedral of Aachen or Castel del Monte placed in their city will be given a voucher (one per building, so if you have all three military boost buildings, this means you will get three vouchers), which will be usable when Great Building level caps have been removed. This item will allow you to increase that great building by 1 level at no cost. The vouchers will be added to inventories very soon.
Guild versus Guild
Since the launch of Guild versus Guild, we know that there have been many comments and requests for various improvements to the feature. One of the main concerns expressed has been in the donation of goods to guilds that needs to be improved.
We are now able to confirm that a Guild Treasury - which allows easy donation of goods to the guild - is in its final stages of development, and this feature will be included with the next release, along with several other improvements.
The next update will also include the new Modern Era province for Guild versus Guild, which further extends the map and will allow the most advanced players to compete using their current age units and goods.
The Guild Treasury feature is one of the several improvements requested by you - our players. We've also got other player-generated ideas that will be included in forthcoming updates, and you'll hear more about these very soon.
So, please do not stop generating ideas and giving feedback - what you think really does matter.
Thank you for reading, and thank you for supporting Forge of Empires.
Sincerely,
The Forge of Empires team.
