you will able to play new adventures with new units. not worth to use exist units. same is for celreaing home island. clean only first sector with exist units to have space for new buildings (if you need space or don't want pay gems for new sector).Quote:

depends on your number of explorer on how fast you can go from lvl 54 to 56, maybe you will need to use x4 buffs.
adveture loot give you more resource than you spend on units
Figured as much.Quote:

Cheers for the replies Mannerheim and corona88. Seems a shame that we have do do the first 6 levels with normal adventures but still should be fun.
I assume that the FairyTale adventures will drop XP again at L50+ rather than the extra bean slot they currently provide.
Have been reading this thread with interest and have a couple of questions/points:
1. For anyone who has completed an Ali Baba adv - what's the loot drop actually like? is it as good as promised?
2. Seeing as we seem to be resigned to losing star coins (and therefore easy access to nukes) does anyone else think that either BB should make MSE % drops higher from SE loot or make nukes one of the loot drops for FT/Ali Baba adv? Whilst we're at it could we also make the rarity drops % better - I've lost count of the number of SEs I've done without either an Angel Gate or MSE.
3. Given that we're going to have to maintain at least 2 armies (one regular one and another for the new adventures (I don't count PvP as a proper part of TSO)) can anyone tell me if having population on the new islands contributes to the overall total? I am slightly confused by the stores concept still.
4. And finally ... any word on whether BB be making more building licenses available?
The test server loots were often filled with placeholder fish... this tsotesting thread shows some sample loots thoughQuote:

Star coin shop remains.
Anything built on archipelago or main island contributes to the economy as a whole...Quote:

I am slightly confused by the stores concept still.
storehouses are effectively trans-dimensional portals, a settler can put stuff in one and take it from a different one... note though, a forester (for example) built on the archipelago would not be able to walk to a tree-stump located on the island (obviously not clever enough to use the trans-dimensional portals)
The new stores are weirdly, a store that a settler/builder does not have to walk to to build... so you can build the first one even though you cannot walk to the archipelago. Once one is built, settlers/marshals/builders can trans-dimensionally-teleport to it.
You can build an elite store, build an improved store in same sector and then demolish the elite store btw... just first build per sector has to be elite store... this will undoubtedly confuse people
Each sector of the archipelago awards ten new licencesQuote:
4. And finally ... any word on whether BB be making more building licenses available?
With this update all buffing and each day sending my geologist will make me mad im sure about it ....
Just want to clarify... and this is in no way final but on test so far each new sector gives only 3 new licences, not 10 like the ones on main island gave. BUT there are more licencs now that you can buy with Beanstalks, if i remmeber right now you can buy a total of 7 packs of 5 licences each (35 licences). So basically they added 20 more new licences for beanstalks (we could get 15 previously). And also i think we can get some more licence packs for gems too.Quote:

Isn't there something like 200 building slots on the new Islands ?Quote:

122 if I recall correctly.Quote:

With the extra bean/stalk buy-able ones I would guess that most people will find a balance without getting desperate for more licences.
Also remember, for most players, taking over the archipelago will take some time.
Most do not have the stockpile of magic beans/stalks in order to buy many of the Sector Deeds immediately.
Doing the South East corner using mainly recruits would be huge losses, so plenty will leave those zones until they have a new troop army.
Depending on camp loot, I will probably take the archipelago rather slowly and kill each camp in turn... quite possibly using MMA 1r where the results yield kills.
Ah, dunno where I got 122 from then, oops.Quote:

Attachment 6483
iv only checked out 5 camps since the server came back online, all of them being on the new islands, but so far it would seem you only get star coins from the leadersQuote:

this is so bad its just funny bb wants to destroy their own game ?
consider this BB im bored to hell with the boring exp grind at lvl 45 yesterday i logged in and thought hmm well this is boring should i go back to grinding BK again for the 200th time or just logout guess which choice won? the logout one this game is getting worse and worse every level and this new expansion makes me feel sick its almost like you do want to destroy your own game or you simply are not in touch with what players really want
devs who use math to work out values/exp tables/loots and dont play their own game to see those changes work, make poor games bad choices that dont go far and make little money..
devs who really play their own game and enjoy it know what the bad choices before they even think about them adding them to their game
which one are you ?

i honestly cant see myself going past 50 if the game is going to turn out like this
after typing this logged in, my will to hit the "play now" button is just gone , logout time
Not sure many of the level 50 players, including myself, would agree. The idea of the expansion isn't to make it a grind but to give you a reason to keep coming back and playing. I am personally looking forward to the new troops, ali baba adventures, and island expansions. It will probably take me 3-5 months from the launch though to even be ready to start doing them.Quote:

If your target is just to get to the end, then you will be disappointed as the reward for this game is the journey.
Disappointed at less than 2 years?Quote:

Personally I would be very surprised and impressed at my progress if I managed those billion xp in under 2 years, thinking more like 3 or 4 years here (depending upon any extra new content)
Also looking forward to all the new stuff that is coming.
Best idea is to not treat it as a grind and just try to find some adventures and things that you enjoy doing... play the game as a game and not as a race to reach max level.
that exactly :)Quote:

imo such a silly thing to do
so this
is what i will do as well and i can't wait :)Quote:

i don't want to get bored doing SA only, i want to fine tune my island, enjoy playing and not sign in because i have to do 10 adventures a day
I can remember calls for this sort of content being made as far back as 2012/2013... This update is long over due and very much welcomed in my eyes, and seems to be in most long term players eyes too.Quote:

I think if you play alot like Djnelson who made lvl30 PVP in 4 month so i guess he will reach and lvl75 in one year :) or even faster :)Quote:

Personally i am looking forward to all the new content and new levels.. brings a whole new future to look forward to in the game.
I am exited to see whats required and how to reshape island to make way for bigger adv.
I will be dissapointed also if i can reach level 75 in less than 2 years... the journey is part of the fun
even less. i'm really disappointed now. We tell bb, panda quest is too powerful.Quote:

all depends on depth of pockets in game really- to get that number of bonus quests you need to buy lootspots- and sell loots ofc and/or get coin other means - esp if it is a continuous process - most will burn out in the process somewhere after lvl 62 as there is no reward left except reaching 75 and that being a long way away even with buying a fair amount of lootspots a day
There are a few at 65, maybe 66 or 67 already- which suggests that the 75 in 2 years will be reached by some )
I love this discussion about lvl75 in 2 years.
Whereas there are plenty of players like me who say what is the point as they will never get to lvl75. I will certainly be long gone before lvl75 is anywhere near.
Some of us have lives outside of TSO. So maybe people should think of every type of player before they complain that it is too easy............
Well, not really: for level 66 you need 140 mill xp and they did it in 4 months. For 75 you need another 900 millions...Quote:
