This game is totally real! I read just recently how every estate house in the Middle Ages housed 205 people.Further, on his 'point' about lacking the infrastructure to maintain these buildings, where's the food storage in ANY city, most ages don't have farms or any manner of food production as their supply buildings, so what are the people eating? How are they getting their water in the later ages when there are no pumping stations. Populations into the hundreds of thousands and no piped water? Yeah bloody right. At no point do cities in this game function in a logical manner.
That's pretty much what Blackadder said about Robin Hood: "Stealing from the (hard working) rich to give to the (lazy) poor" .Looking back through old threads, I'm amused to note that the immediate response to the neighbourhood merge changes was
"this will punish all successful players and reward weak and lazy players" - sounds familiar at all?
it hasnt died yet & a lot of players are doing exactly what you think will kill the gameWith nothing big to shoot for anymore, just mindless grinding until you're at oceanic future then wait until pure boredom sets in and you quit, this game will die.
It may remain in some form, but as a game? No. A glorified chat room is what it will be. People hang around for the friends they've made, they start new worlds and build them up high in ways they probably didn't their first run through. Just because masochists exist does not make mindless grinding fun, and fun is what a game is for.it hasnt died yet & a lot of players are doing exactly what you think will kill the game
This game is based upon a grinding system.With nothing big to shoot for anymore, just mindless grinding until you're at oceanic future then wait until pure boredom sets in and you quit, this game will die.
They already do, don't they? Once you finish all the story quests for your current age, you just cycle through repeating quests.I suppose next you'll want to prevent people from doing story quests until they're in the age those quests are associated with.
You don't get to skip ahead on the map by befriending players who have already reached the next continent; you have to do the provinces in an appropriate order, and you can't bribe anyone more powerful to do it for you...more advancing on the map past your current age! You want to push into a new age on the map you have to advance to that part of the tech tree!
Doing a speedrun to parts of the game that weren't intended (or balanced) to be accessible from where you are doesn't take imagination - it only takes acquaintance with the exploits discovered by earlier playersOf course there will always be someone with no imagination, no drive to push further than their abilities dictate they should be able to, and always someone who wants to force everyone else down to their level.
No, they don't. You can push the story quests ahead as far as they will allow you. Sometimes there are roadblocks that force you into an age in order to progress further, but a lot of the time, you can push ahead of your age in the story, then you get that age's side quests, and once you finish or abort through the side quests you get recurring quests, until you push the story quest into the next age past that one and the cycle repeats.They already do, don't they? Once you finish all the story quests for your current age, you just cycle through repeating quests.
That is perhaps the best argument made in this thread....it has ALWAYS been possible to build any GB, you don't need to buy goods with FPs, that just speeds up the process a lot. You could simply trade up until you have everything you need, a constant goods train moving upwards to Tomorrow Era(That's the age Dynamic Tower is in), build DT, and skip trading for the goods.It was possible. Let person reach whatever age dynamic tower is from, build it, get few oceanic friends and its easy to trade down oceanic goods. With 200 oceanic goods its possible to build inno or lotus temple by trading down (do the math if you don't believe me). And even before dynamic it is possible to build higher age GB, although costly.
Thinking for me, huh? Next time prevent getting to higher CMaps, next higher age friends - you want Arc, get to the future first. In your mindset, right? Not to mention that initial proposal of 50% reduction is y no means a "prevent" one. So, you are classifies as a fat troll, period.I suppose next you'll want to prevent people from doing story quests until they're in the age those quests are associated with.
Frankly, it is still possible to do without ANY GBs, you can trade a lot, two-up or one-up at a time, wait if someone would accept an unfair trade out of need or charity, or a fair trade out of either reason, continue to do that until you accumulate enough highrr age goods to build that GB you desire. I am now gathering goods for CDM this way while staying in Iron. Costly, yes, by a mile, but doable. But man, with fair trades 1 good from LMA is mere 8 goods from Iron, and 1 good from TF is 2048 Iron Age goods (or 4096, if I missed an age). So, how much time to get goods for an Arc from Iron the normal way?It was possible. Let person reach whatever age dynamic tower is from, build it, get few oceanic friends and its easy to trade down oceanic goods. With 200 oceanic goods its possible to build inno or lotus temple by trading down (do the math if you don't believe me). And even before dynamic it is possible to build higher age GB, although costly.
Same question to you. Gathering 2000 TF goods - what time investment fom Iron Age? Right now I get about 200 IA goods per day, this is enouh for 1/10 or 1/20 of a single TF good. So, is it actually possible to build an Arc from Iron without FP trades? And there are arcs in Iron. So while the argument is good, spending 400 years in Iron age for just building an Arc is not "possible". You will plain die waiting.it has ALWAYS been possible to build any GB, you don't need to buy goods with FPs, that just speeds up the process a lot.
