This being said, it appears to me like the issue has been fixed and the number of collectibles has returned to the intended value.Quote:

Now it is working as intended: Collectibles spawn on your home island only.
Please note that this thread is NOT about the Christmas collectibles, so all comments on that will be moved to the Christmas Event feedback thread to avoid confusion.
It's very odd the varying results,
I have found none on the new islands (since the last patch) but my numbers have returned to 'normal' (in the middle 20's) and I'm getting a reasonable (subjective) amount of Christmas ones.
It's stunning this isn't more even across the players.
Ok, so now we are told officially......after the fact about collectibles not intending to spawn on archipelago. :mad:
As we seem to have been left out of the discussion on which this decision has been made, would the Devs care to enlighten us on the why's and wherefores of this decision.
More specifically why it is deemed that collectibles have not increased in proportion to both the land increase and adventure requirements ( barrack and production buffs made by those collectibles ) of the expansion. And just how this fits in with maintaining a `balanced' economy ?
Gleamed from the German forum, thanks to Mannerheim, I also discovered that there was a `minimum' spawn of 10 set in the original configuration. Has this figure been increased to set off the xxl expansion, and if so, are we ( the other servers ) going to be privy to this information, or are we expected to just muddle along in ignorance?
I doubt, even less that I did before, its worth continuing to post feedback or suggestions, but for what its worth I'll post that I would like to see collectibles on expansion and the number increased in proportion to the expansion. Everyone on the EU servers that use the forum can then post a +1 or -1 to that idea and at least they can have their say. ( I will value their input at least :) )
Yep, looking at sector lines that bit is in zone 1, seems system cannot differentiate the spaces fully.
Well, as I said before, I'm just glad my colls are back to avg 24-25, even if none are found on the islands.

And now the bug is back after maint, back to only 11 colls this spawn, I used to have an avg of 20 per spawn before the XXL update.
yep I got 9 this morning here we go again :(Quote:

You woukd have hoped that after 3 years the Devs could have worked out a better system than this, the game does not do "random", it stinks at it and basing events so much on these "random possibilities" does not work.
Mostly agreed. I think I did ok on the Christmas ones but I don't know what a reasonable target is .... 1 X-mas for every regular? 2 to 1. I think there are varying expectations. I was able to get several lots of presents (with some trading to offset having a few too many of one type but not enough of others).Quote:

Hi,
I just noticed from last update until today the 2 spawn on my island is Just and only 15 not less not more, and before last event i was get at least 18 - 28, seriously, I think you make 2 times maintenance to fix Collectibles issues and its getting even worst !!
And I think this reported in another thread, but i can tell that Collectibles hide under rocks, and buildings (like wells, farms, wheat fields, and so one) and this happened once with me in SE adv too.
I may have spoken a bit too soon, sorry about that. I have had 17, 18, and now 26 colls per spawn after my last post in here, so I guess it is fixed after all, but I am watching it closely to see :)
Maybe it is one of those, fixed for some but not all bugs.
I'm seeing anywhere from 17 or so up to the high 20's. So for me it seems to be working like I expect.
Yeah, still keeping track and check, and it seem to be between 17-26 atm, so back to normal I think, not sure though...
