When one of these villages leaves does it turn into a Barbarian?
And if you noble one what happens?

 

[d4m0]

It disappears rather than goes barb and I suspect you can't send nobles at them. Or if you can then they won't lower the loyalty.

the only thing i get is the HC buff and build time, you have to make a trade feature as i said above if you have 2 common buffs you want to trade, you can choose the common buff you want and hence trade it 2 for 1 and likewise for the uncommon buffs as well, otherwise your just going to have a stack of buffs that will never get used as they have no practical application meaning the event has little to no effect. the build time and recruitment buff are flawed, its pointless using it when its not added to existing queues, if it doesn't affect existing queues its not going to be building anything (hence being pointless)

If you do the following things i think the event will be useful and might be good.
1. be able to trade 2 common buffs for another single common buff of your choosing
2. be able to trade 2 uncommon buffs for another single uncommon buff of your choosing
3. Have any buffs be added to already existing queues to make them useful during the short period they are on.
4. keep the warehouse buff to be used once a day, thats a good idea


Just to get my point across i've had 12 rolls using steel
and 7 rolls using premium.

I've had
1 Overabundance
1 Haste
6 Overtime
1 Conscription
1 Spears and Swords II
1 Axes and Horseshoes II
8 Heavy Armor II

16 of them will never get used as they have no practical application, so 3/19 have any use, that goes for about 95% of players.

well i have to say congrats on inno for having some idea on how to remedy it, three free spins? I thank you...

My new account on 69 benefited greatly from it, however my proper account didnt do so well, but still, its a gamble right?

Indeed. I also tip my hat that they were able to admit it wasn't really working out. Alot of companies would just ignore it and change it the next time around.

If I roll the Tombola more than once, do the prizes remain open for activation indefinitely?

The buff remains active for 10 hours once activated, but do I have to activate each prize before rolling the tombola again?

 

[DeletedUser]

If I win overabundance 2, do I have to activate it within 10 hours?

 

[DeletedUser]

Please put in a notice about the recruitment speed buff. It doesn't speed up the current build times, only future build times after the buff is actually used. What this means is if I build 150 LC, it takes 15.4 hours. The time still remains 15.4 at 6min 15sec build time per LC when the buff is active, but when it's active, new additions added to the queue are going to build at 4min 35sec.

Please put a message up for this... I expected to knock 10 or more hours off my queue's...

 

[MAX-BURN]

If I win overabundance 2, do I have to activate it within 10 hours?

No you don't it will remain until the event ends. Once you activate it then it lasts 10 hours.

 

[DeletedUser]

No you don't it will remain until the event ends. Once you activate it then it lasts 10 hours.

It doesn't last 10 hours, because it can't. It's a one-time resource boost. You can only activate one per day, though.

 

[KeegiKolmas]

I have a question about bonuses.

Does it work like a flag? I mean i should activate it before i send out attack right?

What if the attack is longer than 10h?

I activate, buff lasts 10 hour, but my attacks takes 12 to land, will it still work?

Axes and Horseshoes II
Uncommon
Owned: 2 Axe: +20% attack power
LCav: +20% attack power

 

[MAX-BURN]

It doesn't last 10 hours, because it can't. It's a one-time resource boost. You can only activate one per day, though.

O ya dam my bad Didn't check what boost it was

I activate, buff lasts 10 hour, but my attacks takes 12 to land, will it still work?

No it won't work. The buff will only take effect while its active. So for example you activate your buff but the attacks you launched 7 hours before activating which land during the buff period will have the Attack boost.

 

[KeegiKolmas]

No it won't work. The buff will only take effect while its active. So for example you activate your buff but the attacks you launched 7 hours before activating which land during the buff period will have the Attack boost.

Well thats what i thought too, but me and mate asked support.

They answered me that buffs and flags need to be up when attack hits - but i know from my own experience that you need to change flag before you send attack, if you change while attack is sent it wont affect. So already wrong info from support...

They told my mate that the buff need to be activated before you send the attack - just like build time buff, you must have it active when you que them, and after it run out they still be short.

Now i need to use 2x Axes and Horseshoes II Because support can`t give clear answer, i think they are doing it to get more money or smth, thats kinda lame.

And if i listen 1 and the info is false the attack might fail...

 

[DeletedUser656]

but i know from my own experience that you need to change flag before you send attack, if you change while attack is sent it wont affect. So already wrong info from support...

You are incorrect. Flags and buffs which are active at the time of the attack hitting are used. The state when you send the attack is irrelevant.

 

[KeegiKolmas]

hmm.

I forgot to change flag from rec to attack.

Sent the attack and changed it when it was on the way, and the hit was without attack str.

Explain this then?

And why some support say we have to activate buff before we send, and other say we have to have buffs on when they hit...?

I had to use extra buff because of it..

You are mistaken. Only the current conditions at the time of the landing are used. I am fairly confident of this because I am the person who implemented both flags and the buff system into the game.

I have checked your support tickets and found only one regarding this matter and the answer you received is completely correct and the same as what I am telling you here.

 

[KeegiKolmas]

So when are you going to say that you changed the event settings again.

65 spins and no Overabundance II

Same goes for my mate who have wasted lately 6.5k pp for that too and no OB2 buff.

When this event started they were easy to get. Max 10 spins, sometimes 20. Then it came a bit harder, around 20-40.

Now 2 players both making 60+ spins and no OB2 buff.

Thanks a lot for changing the settings and not telling anyone.

That would be same like if someone go to casino and win some cash and then casino go and change the settings on machines to win it back faster.

And limiting Warehouse buffs to 1 use per day and then keep giving them out even if players cannot use them. Well, that is same like stealing our money.

I have 24 Overabundance and event will end in 9 days, so that means i already have 15 of them what will be deleted and when i spin i still get them.

Thanks a lot for making a cool event and then fcking it up properly without telling or announcing it.

Best regards
Keegi.

its called gambling for a reason. Thats why the true winners stop when they are ahead. I would have stopped after a few extra, but 15? man thats just idiotic....

and I had an OB2 yesterday, on maybe my 7-8 spin in the whole event, maybe the odds get longer the more you put in?

I know I had a lot of Ma ones on 6, and loads of spear ones on 72, did I whine? nope, because its gambling. You take a risk, you lose, you move on. You win, whoop!

Hmm, does Innogames have Gambling licence?

And underage people can use it, so they made gambling available for players under 18.

And pp can be gained for real money, so children gambling with real money.

Someone should give some hints to somewhere

 

[DeletedUser]

wow, thats spreading it real thin... its not gambling that requires a license you idiot. The gamble is that you will get a perk you want or need. Last I checked you can do that on all manner of FB games too....

Its a risk to reward factor for the person going for the rewards. And last I checked, selling pp wasnt gambling, neither was buying it...

So where there is no monetary reward it does not require a license in any way, shape or form. So please go troll elsewhere
