[DISCUSSION] FoE Soccer Cup

Rosletyne

Warrant Officer
The event is fine. I'm a very paranoid person regarding the RNG (Random number God) but I think the chances are being displayed correctly with what I'm getting.

I have my doubts about that. For the past few days it has taken me 25-30 tries to get a success with the 10% shot. Bad luck only goes so far, and after everything InnoGames has done, I simply do not trust them to be honest about those chances. Remember the Summer Casino last year? In one of the quests Greva Darn complained that people suspected the wheel was rigged - and it actually was rigged. The ability to stop the wheel had absolutely no effect on which prize you got.

I have a wishing well now going for 6250 cups. I can barely get 1k playing smart, so this is obviously to those people buying diamonds to get them. You would need about 2k diamonds to get so many cups, and that would cost you US$ 30,00. For a virtual wishing well.

Sorry to burst your bubble, but if you spent a *lot* of time playing the game daily you could have accumulated more than enough cups for a wishing well by now. I've never bought any cups with diamonds and had reached that level in both of my cities (even though I picked up a few small items along the way) by plugging away on the 100% chance for almost all my shots

I have to agree with Jean. I haven't bought cups, yet I have already gotten 2 rogue hideouts and still have over 1000 cups to buy with. It takes patience, planning and some luck. And I've had good days and bad days where I've gotten no cups. But it can be done. Good luck to you.

I've got 3 steps to go. I'm on 39 shots. I figure I can finish in 3 days. Had 3 of the extra 20 shot slowdown steps. I never peaked at the spoilers to see what the quest line is but got some tips by reading this thread.

This may have been answered already, but do the prizes to buy with cups still rotate every 6 hours after the event ends?

The last answer was that we will find out when the event is over, although I can't see why that would change.

Anyone know what order the prizes show up, or are they random.

This is ridiculous imo, with the only non rotating prize being 600 cups i'm sure everyone would like to budget their cups prior to the event ending, in theory you could get stuck with up to 595 cups that you cannot use if the rotating prize is unavailable. They must know, so why not tell us.

Totally agree. There is an arrogance to the fact they seem to take pleasure in withholding information about the game. Recent changes and the whole HoF and H/A saga sums it up really. I have no idea who has been making these decisions but they need to go or be moved sideways. They clearly have no understanding of the game or players. Or if the do then they just don't care about either.

against rules i know, but on beta the rotating prizes every 6 hours still occur, so you should be able to spend most of them by july 20th

The event hasn't ended on the beta. It ends a bit over a day before it does on live.

Why does the Champion display differing unit types depending on where you view it?

From the screenshots below, as a timed prize the Champion's retreat indicates that Post Modern Era Champions are fast units, yet when viewing the details of PME Champions within the army management screen they are classed as heavy units.

In this thread: http://forum.en.forgeofempires.com/...ions-and-Issues-from-the-Foe-Soccer-Cup-Event there are conflicting responses to the question of what happens to unused "shot packages". On page 1 (post 6) byeordie and mr beef are quoted as saying that most likely they'll be converted to FP packages as was the case after the spring event; on page 2 (post number 17) Hippocratia says that as in the spring event the advice is to use them before the event ends.

Can that question be clarified, please and thank you? There's surely no point in making a mystery out of it, let alone confusing people with conflicting answers.

This was clarified here:

Update on what happens to shot packages when the event ends:

Shot packages will be transformed into Forge Point packages, this will take place once the event is over (on the next login of each user).

The Information, Questions and Issues from the Foe Soccer Cup Event thread has also been updated to reflect the latest information, thanks for alerting me.
