so the unfair advantages get removed
why: because Inno decided they are against the rules

and according to the FoeHelper website starting with july 1st Inno is checking if players are using older versions which has still those features

those unfair advantages will be forbidden and players could get banned starting in July if they still use it

so people here where right:
InnoGames is not banning people without warning
they give FoeHelper the time to be changed to remove those things

The change is honestly fine. Only thing I disagree with is the events change. Is that that really op, surely it's just convenient, cos I used to write it on a piece of paper of order to choose players, animals etc.. Guess ill go back to that again

It is only the showing of the quests that is changed. You can easily view it elsewhere.

Oh really? I understood it as the actual events tab, that showed statistics relevant to the event was being removed

Well that sucks, a perfectly reasonable and balanced tool that helped everyone but people on mobile is being changed cause of whiners who don't want to use it. Great. :/

Gonna miss its awesome features of it only telling you information that you can gather yourself. Basically now only smart people will be able to gather all the information it used to give, there was never any unfair advantages to using the extension. Congrats you all played yourselves.

Nah, that's not why they changed it...
"After a recent evaluation of the FoE Helper by InnoGames, we were asked to change the way some features work with the game...."

Far from everyone. Maybe 10% (or far less, more likely) of the browser players are using the foe helper (my own estimate, not based on exact facts).

FoE has over 50 million registered users
FoEHelper has 80000 installs

that are 0.16% :rolleyes:

the company’s most successful game to date is Forge of Empires, which released in 2012 and now boasts over 50 million registered players

then gather yourself :P

that is part of the game ;)

and that is why nothing of the fair part was changed

only a few minor things which you actually don't need because they didn't give you an unfair advantage over people who didn't used the tool

- it shows you what you can plunder before you even attacked (for example Terrace Farm is giving 5 FP)
- it tracks your attacks and shows what neighbors had in previous attacks and what you plundered

first is great: you can again fool opponent with 5 minute productions.
(where is the fun for the defender if the opponent knows that he would get 50 supplies and not 5 FP)
second: actually the fairest part of the removed things in my opinion (it is only tracking your past)
