Still faster than reaching 75 ;)
For the next round of 'ask me anything' on the xmas event those who have the RPH why are they not offered another rare building? maybe something like a gold tower something you already have a limit on.
not only that id like to know how winners are chosen as i am pretty sure no one had asked the same question as me before i had asked it yet someone else's was chosen and gems awarded to them how does that work ?Quote:

It's not crazy. They probably summed up the questions from all regions and will prioritize the most asked ones.
right so you can only ask 1 question and if the question you ask has all ready been asked then your out of luck and cant ask another question yet there was no way of knowing if the question you asked has all ready been asked ill stick with crazy thanks :0
That would mean the question is a popular one and you have more luck of getting an answer than others do. If you were only hunting gems and did not really care about the answer then contact support if same question gets answered and you wont get gems.
Rules say "Rewards: Every question that we will provide an answer to will be rewarded with 250 Gems"
well you coul read the other questions before asking.Quote:

why r u not going to switch to HTML5? Most browsers r taking action to ban flash player. when they do that no one will be able to play any browser games using flash. another game i play sent a msg out telling everyone using chrome to switch to a diff browser cause chrome no longer allows flash. Firefox disabled flash last year for a few months cause it was causing so many security problems. i believe there is a legal case against all adobe products pending cause of major security problems with them including their photo editing program which i think is photoshop. it was found to be riddled with spyware. Java is not much better.
My internet security program has found viruses and other malicous stuff in just about every flash and java update.
Maybe switch to silverlight temp till u can change to HTML5 if its easier. Silverlight does the same job as flash and java combined and its more secure. But even that is obsolete now.
Flash has cost me a lot of troops as it has a nasty habit of crashing when im sending attacks involving blocks. It waits till i send the blocking genarals then crashes meaning i cant send the main attack or recall the blocking attacks. On average flash crashes 10 to 20 times a day.
There is also a fake flash that installs itself without permission which corrupts the real flash. That involves uninstalling flash, going into registry and manually removing all the flash related stuff in there and then reinstalling flash again. But within a few days the fake flash installs itself again. The fake flash is actually a virus attached to flash through updates from adobe. But cause of the way adobe has hidden it anti virus programs cant detect it. The symtoms r lag and freezing which i see a lot of ppl complaining about. Fact is just about every bug and complaint about browser games is caused by flash not the game itself.
1 game i used to play switched from flash to HTML5 and when they did it most of the bugs and lag were gone. The game was only down for 15 mins while they did the switch over. It took them 2 weeks to rewrite the program into HTML5. That was only a small team of 5 ppl. According to 1 of the questions asked u have 12,000 working for u. That game was done by a group of 5 college students in their spare time. So if they can do it why cant a big company like u?
I must admit I'd like them to move away from flash, it never was that reliable
how do you get the manuscripe receipe for the RPH ?
Long letters and lots of luck
You answer questions from 'outer space' and thereby rewarding players submitting those instead of players with ideas and suggestions to improve game?
So many questions asked already - getting responded to
You (BB) should pick the questions responded to a bit more closely :)
Just because a question isn't about "improving" the game, doesn't mean it's a bad question - we try to mix it up a little. After all, it's called "Ask Me Anything" for a reason! :PQuote:

No players became happier or cleverer with this question answered.
Maybe except the player who asked it and got rewarded.
Stepping upon toes is a special skill of mine !..!
We made it clear in the event that there wasn't a rule to what you could and couldn't ask, as long as it wasn't rude or distasteful.Quote:

Happy settling,

Right?
You don't need to see their papers...
...they're not the squirrels you are looking for! ;)
In the battle report we can see a map in the background. Which country or mystic land is it? Is it related to the settlers?
hi,i am having issues with my computer and may have to reinstall windows,if so,will have i have to start from the beginning and can i just log in as normal and the new files automatically downloaded?
A bit old topic, but let me answer :)
Your account progress is tied to our servers, so if you change your computer it doesn't matter as long as you have access to your account.
when will this game be PLAYABLE again ? ? ? ? ?
It wont due to the amount of Bugs there is and lack of any news from BB gives impression they have given up.. Sad to say I feel this is how the game will stay... littered with bugs until they pull the plug.Quote:

No Traffer. You did not adress anything, it was just empty words that said nothing. Talking about a lot of bugfixes that did not improve the game at all for me as a player.Quote:

That was 7 weeks ago and all it said was "fixed gem shop" .. really ... who is going to buy gems with a game almost unplayable... mentioned Halloween which is nearly over .. and server stuff.
How about another update which should include :
bug - zone refreshed
bug - all buffs with countdowns not working right
bug - generals switching gens on adv
bug - cannot find 11th mine for pathfinder
bug - game crash error on memory
bug - plus other hundreds more
You do realise people are leaving because there is NO updates been done and lack of ANY communication.
Let's see damien question:Quote:

What is your honest feedback on when the players can expect to play without lag again?
- This will be improving progressively as the causes are identified, evaluated and worked on.
A particular deadline can't be provided for having the same performance as before. We are however aware of the importance of the current performance issues and they will remain to be one of the main focus points - together with working on important “behind-the-scenes”-issues and keeping the current game flow intact.
Is that really the only thing you've read in the 2nd Community Update?Quote:

With the upcoming version, we will add the last bit of code for Unity to the game. This won’t bring any noticeable changes for you but will simplify the development for us. Once that is done we will continue to invest into improving the game further. As stated in one of our earlier messages, our goal is not to keep the Settlers alive but to make them better than ever.
I understand that you might not like me, the company, or the current state of the game, but please at least read our announcements where we provide you updates about "what is going on" as many of you requested. We didn't provide any new updates during the event, but this doesn't mean we're not working. More updates and details will be available in the near future.Quote:
The other problem we are going to tackle is that, as you can imagine all the infrastructure on Settlers Online. We are currently looking into solutions for newer server setups, which will enable us to troubleshoot and improve performance more easily. For this topic, however, we still have to ask you for patience. We will make sure to keep you posted as soon as we have a timeframe in sight.
So you consider "we do not know" an adequate answer? I do not.Quote:

I do not know if you remember this, but sometime just after BB announced the live date of Unity we talked in game on Sandycove, and you assured me that the live client was better than what was on testserver. I trusted you then, I even bought gems on the next sale. And I was bitterly dissapointed.
As the americans say, fool me once, shame on you. fool me twice, shame on me. I do not believe or trust anything you say anymore. And those community posts does not even say that you know what is wrong, and are working to fix it. Listing how many things you have fixed does not inspire any confidence when none of those fixes have made any difference for me as a player. There has been not been a noticeable improvement since the first week of Unity test.
For me I spent 160 Euro on gems for an unplayable game because you promised Unity live would be good. :mad::mad::mad:
