I still have a couple levels to go CoC, but needing 3 million gold or elixir for just one wall upgrade, it definitely is a snooze fest. But that game, similar to this, just spending the long game and build a city. No rush, no cash, not worried.Clash of clans is far worse. I reached that point where you needed to grind a year to upgrade your walls. In this game you can be SaaB in a year with Arc 80 etc.
This is a fun game till you have to wait for hours for the army to heal or train. Its very annoying to say the least. The times need to be cut to less than 5mins to do stuff.
No, you don't get diamonds in starter packs that you can use in other cities.To keep busy just make at least 3 cities or more and do their settlements, you not only get cheap diamonds in starter packs they get shared to use in any of your cities.
Actually there is. You could hypothetically create a city on every world specifically for that purpose. However it's just a diamond package like with the 200% deal. Only real difference being this one is triggered by starting a city. Although the diamonds are shared across worlds, you still have to buy the package separately for each individual world you get the package for. That then activates a 7 day questline for that specific world.If it was possible to use diamonds from starter packs in other worlds, players would abuse it and start as many cities as possible just to get the diamonds for their main world.
Yeah, alright, true, if you want to pay for the diamonds. I guess that's what Xeon meant.Actually there is. You could hypothetically create a city on every world specifically for that purpose.

This deal only appears in brand new cities and has certain abuse prevention features in place. One of those abuse prevention functions is so you can't buy it on a new world, activate it on a world with a Lvl 100+ Chateau and increase the diamond yield but the diamonds themselves can be used on any world once obtained
Well he did say "cheap diamonds"Yeah, alright, true, if you want to pay for the diamonds. I guess that's what Xeon meant.
I realise that many players have a real life and that we should take our time playing FOE camping ages etc.One city is enough
New city might help you quite a bit with the game, you can also basically change the decisions you made on another city if you regret them, which I like the most, but it is also good for new friendshipsI realise that many players have a real life and that we should take our time playing FOE camping ages etc.
however if you want to spend more real time playing; more than one city is essential in my opinion.
Understanding the game comes from playing it, not from waiting for things to complete.
edit: I learnt this the hard way, got bored waiting so decided to look into a diamond farm but you still need a developed city to obtain enough wishing wells (unless you do only quest free events) which in many cases is your abandoned main city!
Having more than one city means you can use them as time fillers or training grounds and many other ways.
One of the best features of Forge of Empires is that you can play at your own pace, one or more cities without feeling left behind.
