Few questions tho. I watched innos little video on the new new spire. Left me wondering a few things.
1. It talks about the new currency thing to buy from harald trader guy. But he only replenishes his supplies once every 6 weeks. And yet the limit on the items we can be is soooooooo small.
3 petfoods in 6 weeks?? Which is 1 petfood every two weeks!
15 cats in 6 weeks?? = 2.5 cats a week!
6 teleport spells in 6 weeks?? = 1 per week!
Those caps seem horrendously low. To the point of insulting.
I thought it... might... be ok if it was replenished every week. Soon as i thought that the video chimes in that he resupplies every 6 weeks... ><
It was quite infuriating to me. A good idea, implemented horribly. (I guess its still a step up for inno compared to the last few updates.)
But... the one thing the video did not really show or mention where the spire chests. The ones we normally get random rewards from. It doesnt really say if we are still getting those rewards as well?? If we still do, it doesnt show/say WHAT those rewards are, much less the quantity. Are they there at all?? Are they the same as they were last month (live server)?? Revert back to the better pool of rewards from before the spire screw job?? A whole new redesign/redistribution of chest rewards???? What is it?
The answer to that can greatly effect the over all rewards. If are limited to only the rewards we buy.. then were screwed. So that naturally makes me think that inno might have actually done that. - If the chest rewards are still there, then what they offer still greatly effects where this will be a good update or not.
Also, if we have rewards chests still, did we get our damn time instants back!? I noticed there were none in the shop. Not that it would matter. It would probably be just a 15 min booster x2 cap >< But inno killing the time instants was the one that made me go from doing full spire every week, to barely doing anything to the point of forgetting the spire was there half the time. So if thats still an issue, then i got a problem.
On a slightly different note..
Frog King... why? Just... why?
The video promotes this new expiring building that gives kp 'every 24h' although the visual says 3kp/10h. So... 7.2kp/24?
If there is one thing most players seem to care less about these days, its kp. Ever since inno screwed over our ability to upgrade aw's, weve all had hoards of kp just sitting around doing nothing. We cant use em on aw's because we cant upgrade them. So getting kp is almost worthless. Tech kp only go a short distance.
So we tend to have hoards of kp lying around with no use... kp still being given out as rewards every single event.. and innos great idea to promote the new new spire is.... giving an item that takes up room in our city that makes even more useless kp?????? What kinda stuff are these ppl at inno on?? - its a car man.. and it runs on water!
The only good thing i see so far is this fs spire aw. That actually looks interesting. Youll probably also never hear ppl complaining about something that will give them more expansions in there city. Although im sure it will take a while to get them. But i do have some questions about how that works.
Since its based on the fs and not the individual player...
Does a player have to participate in spire or upgrading the aw to gain access to the expansion or is it fs wide automatically?
After a fs has a few expansions unlocked from the aw, and a new player joins the fs, do they suddenly gain access to those expansions the fs got? If a player leaves a fs, do they lose those expansion??
