Hi,
I can't unlock the "The Militia" Quest from the main quest named: "Militia", 'cause it asks:
Player Level required: 21-21
...but I'm already in level 25, so it means that I'll not be able anymore to complete these quest.
This just happened after the last game update.
Any solution?
thanks!
Hello Nivlac8,
There are no official solutions right now unfortunately.
The team is aware of this though and is working on a hot fix.
I will keep you informed of course.
regards
BB_Dantesama
Exactly same problem, so I'll watch this thread
same problem for me! also same problem with "neither fish nor fowl" (lvl 22-24),"new building materials" (lvl 23-25),"first strike units"(lvl 23), "ranged units" can't unlock last sub-quest (lvl 25-26) and i'm lvl 28 already.
I have the same problem with "Your brother Theodor" quest. I can't unlock 2 quests because im level 32! :( "Recruits on their way 28-31" "Foul eggs 31-31"
any update on the fix? quest are piling up.
Same problem to me too...
Same here. I have about 5 i can't do!

An easy fix would be to (at least temporarily) raise the max level. However, the "Milita" quest is very hard to do even if you started after they redid quests. You have to produce 500 iron swords and make 50 milita at lvl 21 before you level. It is virtually impossible to do it in that timeframe.
Same problem here, will keep watching and hope it gets fixed SOON.
Even if you did unlock it, the next one would be impossible to do if you've cleared your island.
I am writing under for the same problem. I am LVL 30 right now.
I have this same problem as well.
Same problem too.
Got the same problem recently. Any update what's going to happen?!
Expected fix mid-February
The militia chain is the most likely chain to present you with this problem, but the problem lies in every quest chain were quests have to be unlocked before you get to a specific level.
yeah, i failed militia too, too early a level at 21 to produce iron then make iron swords! then 50 damn militia. the rest were easy once i was aware i could fail them so I concentrated on each quest at each level up. But finally ill be able to put those 2 exotic fruit baskets to use!
Is it possible to confirm that this:
applies to *all* the Quests with level limits?Quote:
Some players could not finish the main quest due to the fact that the level was far too high. This issue has affected several quests, this will befixed.

As Fexno mentioned above any Quest that can relock will relock if one passes the level requirement, not just the most reported ones.
There are probably more quests chains that are affected by (too) strict requirements, but these are the chains reported since 2013-01-01:
Reported quest chains affected:
- Your brother Theodor ("Foul eggs", "Recruits on the way", "Steel sword in advance"; lvl 31)
- First strike units ("Tactician"; lvl 23)
- Ranged units ("Bowmen"; lvl 24)
- Neither fish, nor fowl ("Sausage","The sausage pyramide"; lvl 24)
- Free the home zone! ("More sectors", "Once and For All"; lvl 30) (exactly 3 sectors (not more) is another requirement)
- Luxury Materials ("Get rid of the worms"; 36)
- Basic adventure("The moment of thruth", "Recruiting more Explorers","Adventure search"; lvl 37)
- Update older production chains ("Building upgrades"; lvl 12)
- Militia ("The Militia"; lvl 21)

Just this morning someone in Help mentioned a Level 15 Quest being stuck, "Join the Army" I think it was. It may have been blocked by the mysterious "Buff your Barracks" instruction, though that's just a guess.
please can u make such quests available for higher levels so they can be done, since seems that it is stuk with its logical statement that not to apear before the previous quest is done and apear at given level, it apears to be stuk with what it says, i had completed the previous and the next quests of the ' first stirke units ' ( main ) ' tactician ' ( sub ) whaich says that player level required 23 - 23 and the whole main quest is stuk due to this one sub quest
I am also stuck with the Militia Quest ( now level 25) and have noticed Sausage Pyramide is also stuck , supposedly the Game works on logical progression but so far no logical path has been shown with quests appearing that are in advance of a level or after someone has passed the requirement level for a quest . very frustrating .
I just checked through quest list and I cannot complete the First Strike Quests as I have passed the level required and was no where near having the needed resources at level 21 , only just managed to get them at level24
Same problem for me...it's been like it for months now! Why no fix????
Hello,
I also want to report problem with unlocked quest. Main quest: Soldiers, subquest: Steel swords (27 - 29 lvl).
I am at lvl 31. By the time I prepared to do this quest, I already gained lvl 30, because of the exp from doing other, for me more important and more interesting quests.
Like some fellow here said, we are all different players with different tactic, there shouldn't be too many level restrictions once you pass tutorial.
So, I'm looking forward to this mid-Feb fix :)
Besides this little problem, I really love this game!
I've come to the conclusion that when it comes to quest chains no thought was given to the xp rewards which a player can pick up from completing quests in other quest chains. With this particular chain a player has to go out of their way to avoid gaining xp from other chains and xp from clearing bandits on their island. What makes it even worse is before the chain is completed a player is forced to have 50 militia in their troop count which because this chain is a low level chain means 50 troop units they may not have the population limit to hold. It also forces you to stop all other development for over week while making the iron swords needed to train the militia. It would be better if the level requirements for this chain where at least 3-4 levels higher so that the xp problem was less of a issue.
Just to add, I have this problem with:
1) Neither fish nor fowl : complete the 'The Sausage Pyramide" quest
2) Militia : complete the 'The Militia" quest
3) First Strike Units: complete the "Tactician" quest
All quests are below my lever, never got them when I was AT the required level I think and can't finish them now. PLEASE fix asap. It's really annoying.
Great game! Looking forward to this fix, though. :)
I have wondered about this?
I find it very bizarre to have such a narrow range of only 1 level within which to complete a quest.
For me the follow quests are lock due to this bug;
1 Everything gets optimal,
2 Militia training [never unlocked due to 1, now will be locked as past max lev]
3 The militia [never unlocked due to 1+2, now will be locked as past max lev]
This is such a fabulously rich game, I amazed at this oversight and how long it is taking you to fix it.
I am now lev 33 and counting.
If you expect people to spend real money buying this game, don't get sloppy in your programming logic.
And finally isn't it mid February now?
Do better Blue Byte - fix this irritating problem in this otherwise wonderful game.
Tz
Why do people insist on calling that a bug ? It works perfectly well. You're not within level [X-Y], you don't get the quest.Quote:

Erm, no it doesn't!Quote:

I was level 25 when I completed "The bear" quest.
"The bear" unlocks "Sausage".
But sausage also requires level between 22 and 24.
Is 25 between 22 and 24 ? No.
Thus, no quest.
Is it a bug ? No.
While you're correct in saying that this technically is not a bug, since the game actually tells you the quest won't unlock above a specified level. BB's response suggests it's something that needs to be fixed, thus you might still call it a bug.Quote:

Whether it's by design or by mistake is another problem.
Telling your customers that they should receive a quest when their level is above what the quest says is poor communication at best. And a sign that they have no clue what they are doing.
not when Y = X.Quote:

Actually what you are describing is a bug. The Concise oxford English Dictionary defines a bug [in the computing sense] asQuote:

Try to remember, Exarkfr, that you started this argument about defines a bug and what does not.
But where is the error ? I just can't see it
Should I have received "Sausage [22-24]" and "Cavalry [23-23]" when I was 25, then ?
I was not meeting the requirements.
Hot fix?Quote:

The problem is still there.
Too narrow a range of levels for completing the [sub]quests.Quote:

I don't care if you don't get it.
I want the [sub]quest task(s) to be at least vaguely achieveable within the designated levels...otherwise
THE LEVEL RANGE IS TOO NARROW.
You got it yet?
There are other online games where I can spend real money and not get [ Censored ] about a problem in the software.
Have a nice day.
Please be careful with words used

Hey guys, I can see this is getting a little heated, can we please be careful with how we express ourselves.
Thanks,
peck_ed
Of course I get it.Quote:

I even said it in my first post :

Many people seem to think it's a bug, which it is not. The error is in the design, not in the program.
Rethinking the upper limits would be much appreciated, but so far, I see those quests working free of bug.
Now, I'm done with it.
