Welcome to Settler's world Mirade

[MutantKid]

Looking forward to hearing what's in store going forward. A word of advice though, try listening to the majority of your player base rather than an extreme few or you'll end up going the route of Ubisoft's latest games really fast.

yes same for me ,I would love to be able to send out my explores on block so to speak.

A warm welcome to Settlers Mirade. I don't play many games but of all the games I have ever played Settlers has the best community spirit.
On that note please nudge the right person to help Jazzguy get back his account because he is a lovely player.
Also as said previously please please find the time to actually play this game it will make so many things players say a lot clearer.
I'm just glad to be here although I do come and go, and its great to find my island still standing each time I come back.
Fingers crossed for the future, just don't break them!

Welcome Mirade. Thank you for providing the update.

In my opinion, players just want to know we are heard and are not forgotten. The communication lines have been down for months leaving the players to feel we have been forgotten, not appreciated and/or taken for granted. We are an understanding community when we know what is going on.

Has merging English speaking forums been considered? For example the European English/US servers? It would be easier for the US players to not have to switch from the ".net" server forum to the ".com" server forum for the updates and feedback. Things will be missed and the US players will feel even more forgotten. As someone who reads/posts on both sets of forums, the content is very similar with both forums mostly inactive for months. Having one source of truth for both communities will not leave the US players, or any other group of English speaking players not on the .com forums, feeling like they have been forgotten.

I am looking forward to future updates.

I play Anno 1800 as well but love the settlers as it is more relaxed <3 Enjoy your holiday tomorrow !!!!

Agree with SirAndrew80 suggestions plus maybe even the option to find another island and grow it.

Welcome

i think there are a few things we would like see improvement

1st: better communication - we got hold at arms length with the words - the team is working on it - not very satisfying. Maybe CipSoft can provide a development roadmap.

2nd: We had promissed to us a way to set out explorers in bulk - longtime players have accumulated over 200 explorers. you can understand when people leave the game if senting onle one out takes 4 clicks. i need around 12 minutes to sent out explorers. (for the developers @CipSoft: bulksent can save you millions of little timers that have to run of each if you do 1 timer for each searchtime and bundel all the explorers with the same runtime in a list )

3nd: For those how are saying to little space. We have alot of big buildings (2x3, 2x2, 3x3) that have to be build and taking space up on the island to boost there cooldown speed, increase production. if there is an option to have them working like the epic woodyard/farmyard/forge by having 1 building and adding blueprints to it, that would free up alot of space (e.g. Concert halls, Oli mills, Oil refineries, Spring parks, Footy pitches, labratories, Scouting posts, Observatories, Snack stands, Easter egg trees, Christmas gift trees, Smokehouse, Weather controll station, Advanced bookbinder) i covert most of them.

edit: a way to stack buffs / apply a couple of buffs a time - having a full island buffing takes a while and that would make life easier.

Hi, what is needed the most is:
- Sent Explorers in bulk, but with different templates, so you can create multiple groups.
- Templates for sending out generals to adventures. There is little fun in constantly have to manually assign troops for often played adventures.
- New levels, regular levels and for the colony system aswel, so there is more to do on different fronts for the "end of content" players.
- More islands, preferably winter themed, so we can place our winter themed buildings there. (An ice palace in a desert is funny, but it makes little sense)
- Buffing templates for home island. There is little fun to manually put single buffs on 100s of buildings.

In short, new stuff for end of content players, and reduce the clickfest.
