BTW...will this be still the same? (I guess yes based on wiki and they probably checked test env...)

-players with Level -50 can only get Cake Dough
-players with Level 51+ can only get Candles

IMHO this should be shifted to at least -55 & 56+ or even better -60 & 61+ based on how hard it was to get cake dough last year...there aren't that much new players and those who stayed and played are mostly over L50.

Would make sense to shift the divide higher given how easy it is nowadays to reach level 50.

Not to mention lowest level in my friend list is L57 (not counting those unactive "guildies" which are kept in guild for numbers)....there's only one -50 player in the guild who does GQ and I haven't seen him active in guild chat so it will be extremely hard - almost mission impossible to get dough if -50/51+ is implemented.

we need either more candels to convert them to dough or dough in lot :D

I started a forum thread about this over a week ago and very few bothered to add to the thread. forum.thesettlersonline.com/threads/37810-2020-anniversary-event?highlight=2020

Bit late to start now when they will have already decided what is happening.

I'm sorry I didn't notice your thread and I would definitely add something if I saw it earlier but if you think a week ago wasn't a bit too late then... :P
This feedback plus your thread counts toward next year event -> that is if there is any but BB keeps saying the game will go on even though there is no official statement nor plan as far as I know.
I wouldn't dare to dream that this feedback will change something in following event (even though change from -50/51+ to -60/61+ is probably not a big change for programmers) but let's hope someone will read it and think about changing it next "anni event".

They got tons of comments on the dough/candles imbalance at the end of last years event but I see on test that no level change has happened. Not convinced they read the threads anymore or maybe they are just happy to ignore those who bother to give an input.

Two threads down you claim you don't believe they read these threads anyway and they already got tons of posts about that. Are you just seeking attention by zig-zag comments? :) :)

There is a way to get dough via the convert candle to dough in the prov house, so youll have to play many adv to get the needed extra candles now you have less under level 51 ppl out there.
So what seemed a laid back event will now become a traitor grind.

You're right... we already decided that this year the threshold for getting Candles instead of Dough will be raised to level 58! :D

Are you dreaming of old Settlers adventures and wish it was the year 2001 again? Would you like to bathe in pixels to live in that nostalgic memory?

Then we have a little surprise for you on the test server, check it out now!


So what am i supposed to see, i'm at the test server. Is it just the new retro adventure "Misty Cake"? Or the 3 Settlers 4 buildings?

Been on the test server and celebration level 3 requires "add 3000 hardwood from your star menu to any deposit"
What exactly are you supposed to use to do this no advs drop HW refillers, and I cant see you can make anywhere such as PH, and the omni refillers dont work

Am i missing something?

(level 2 is 2000 stone which you can do via gems in the shop)

I cant dont have much in star on test, tbh I actually created the account to test it since it didnt make sense to me when I saw the quest listed

However its the same quest line as lvl 1 and 2 just diff resource, 1 was easy thats fishm added to deposit and done, level 2 was stone, so I bought the stone refillers, level 3 however as noted you cant actually buy any HW refillers. I do suspect its the same though needing to refil a deposit.

If its the same on ive as test its only 69 gems to gem it though so probably not worth worrying about

If the wiki is correct, it looks like all Expeditions give Candles, but only Barren ones give Cake Doughs.. I'm level 51 - PvP Tier 3 and I almost exclusively do Expeditions, I like it more. And it's really sad that I can't get Doughs from Expeditions..

So.. can you please add Cake Doughs to all Expedition Tiers?

Thanks

the wiki is written by players nothing to do with BB so hence isn't always accurate ..as the threshold for dough changed this year to 58 anything you do will give you dough and only dough

Check in guild re stone refills. At least one must have to recipe to make stone refills from barrels - it is under deposits. Costs 100 barrels to make 2k stone refill. I currently have 110k refills cooking for the whole guild here.

Well, not surprise to me, as I've already said it would make sense to shift the divide point. So back to square one. Maybe next time don't prescribe when and how other players can post their comments. :)

Yeah I hope it is not correct.. But let me clarify, I know I will be getting dough, but it looks like only Barren colonies give dough, the other tiers give zero dough, but they DO give candles if you are 58+. So I want the 58- to be able to get dough from all tiers as well.

It's not about all knowing. It's about attitude towards BB people. Looks like your attitude towards people in general needs some improvement and maturing.

The reason it is funny it the total content of the last sentence above...''Don't prescribe when and how other players can post their comments'' and then you do exactly that. Now that really does show an inability to see a rational comment.

Anyway, moving on, more important things in life to concern myself with.

I now have an achievement for a level 7 combat armory - I don't have a combat armory - the one I had years ago never got passed level 7. If you (BB) for some reason gave it to all because someone got cheated of it - then I suggest you remove it instead. Getting an ach for something you did not even try to do makes no sense - it is a bad joke.

No point in upgrading it so far, as there is no much point in playing pvp. They obviously abandon that part of game long time ago. Achievement also make no sense since there is luck involved, i lost some (couldn't achieve) because of (known) bugs. Only thing they do is add more specialist and wait for the end.

If you did not read the change log then that is exactly what they fixed today from happening from now on but that bug has existed for months. All it took you to upgrade any building to level 7 which is why you probably have it. Based on German forums they will most likely not attempt to do any rollbacks or maintenance scripts to fix this because its not affecting anything in actual gameplay.

27.08.20, 17:18
I have the achievement as you can see in screenshot- but I don't do pvp - I don't have a combat armory - don't want a combat armory - the one I had when I did not know what it was never got passed level 1, I bombed it years ago - before level 7 was ever invented. My guildies also have the ach - without having a level 7 combat armory. My guess is that instead of fixing something that meant someone who earned it did not get it, they gave it to everybody - and that is even worse than cheating someone, then the ach lose its meaning. I personally don't want an ach for something I did not do. Most might not care, but I am sure those who earned it don't want everyone else to just get it for free.

Why do any achievement? why even have the achievements if we dont need to do them to get them, we can just wait for BB to give them to all of us- no matter if we deserve them or not???????????????

sparkz
27.08.20, 17:59
I dont know why you're getting salty about my comment of all things, when all I did was laugh they somehow managed to create an achievement related to particular building and then forgot to tie it to that particular building.

I mean whats the point that separates incompetence from deliberate trolling ? because we might have just reached it.
