Dear Settlers,

A big event is getting closer... once again, more than 300,000 gamers are expected to visit this year's gamescom in Cologne.
Last year, around 700 exhibitors used 140,000 square meters to present games to a total amount of 335,000 gaming fans.
"The Settlers Online" is, of course, once again available for you during this year's gamescom!

New year, but still in a familiar place: Ubisoft games can be seen in a big area within hall 6.1.
The Uplay lounge is located close to Ubisoft's main stage. You are invited to meet team members of TSO:
Our Community Managers, Game Masters and Game Designers are looking forward to talking to you.
It's the same spot, just like last year, come around, take a seat, join Q&A sessions or just relax for a bit.


All times mentioned below are local times of the fair = CEST (Central European Summer Time).

Loot for you


In keeping with tradition, you can win loot for your game account and more :)
A tiny game will be available for you again and the best part about it is: You always win!
However, getting in-game goodies for your account is not the end of the story...

TSO Community rocked Uplay lounge




In total around 800 Community members attended to Q&A sessions, played the buzzer game and won in-game items as well as the awesome TSO cup! Some of our fans even visited our Team during several sessions. Thanks for your remarkable interest!

A very special "Thank you!" goes to fan sites members and fan art contributors who answered the call to gamescom.
More than a dozen core Community members joined the final Sunday session: What an amazing ending for this year's game fair!

You rocked the Uplay lounge! TSO sessions nearly made the lounge burst, because it was very crowded with Settlers from all over the world. It was fun to meet all of you!

An awesome ending: The Special Community Sunday @gamescom



Forum event for all who couldn't attend gamescom



In parallel to gamescom activities, the forum Community event was started in all language versions. The task was simple: Use the speech bubbles to explain (in a funny way) what TSO team might have thought or said during gamescom 2014. This way everybody had a chance to win a gamescom voucher code, even if they were unable to attend gamescom this year.

Due to the overwhelming participation, it was decided to reward every valid contribution
172 forum users won a gamescom code
Codes will be sent during Calendar Week 34 (CW34)
