Anno 1800 Dev Tracker

@yorky65

Hi, Yorky65!

Thank you for getting in touch and it is nice to see an Octogenarian playing! I am very sorry to hear about your wife, this must have been a very difficult time in your life.

However, we are glad to hear that ANNO 1800 has provided some comfort for you when you are unable to go out. Personally, I love the strategic side of ANNO and it sounds like you do also!

Congratulations on reaching Investor level, this is impressive especially whilst having adequate stocks and cash. I am going to pass on your kind words to the game team and our teams here at support, we always love to hear great feedback about our games from the players.

I have never had the pleasure of playing EMPEROR, will have to lo...

Hey baraterek, I like the idea and we'll have a look if we have the do something like this. Worse than not having such an overview, though, is having one but not updating it on a regular basis cause of lack of time.

So, for the time being we continue to check the reactions (likes, views, comments) on individual threads to see how the rest of our forum community is thinking about it.
Additionally, we know of the "faces" in our community by now, so if a "SirHarryPierce" is posting something, we e.g. know it's coming more from a veteran and record building direction

Hey, @hairyaunt - welcome to the forums!

If you're looking for official support from us at Ubisoft, or if you're looking to just discuss the game, we can only do that in English on this forum. As such, I'd like to ask you to translate your post for us

Alternatively, our German forums are here: ...

Hey again, @aorus2017 - thanks for sharing your thoughts on this.

Alas, I cannot pin the thread. If folks wish to engage with your ideas, they're able to do so in the usual way. I really appreciate your passion, though

Hey all,

thank you very much for the list of various quality of life requests. I agree there are some rather useful improvement suggestions in this thread.

We'll be adding those to our list of potential changes for future Game Updates and will discuss them in the team.
Please be aware we cannot say if and when any of these points might make it into the game.

Thanks a lot!
Thorlof

Check the "lighting quality" setting in the options menu. It has to be at least "High" for the lamps to illuminate their surroundings.

Game Update 12.1 is now live!

Game Update 12.1 will be released tomorrow 28th September, at 6PM CEST.

You can find the full release notes here: (https://anno-union.com/updates/anno-1800-game-update-12-1/).

Hey @nicholas_steel thanks again for your feedback and suggestion post, I will move this to our General Discussion area for our community team to be able to see, thank you.

Moving this control scheme request to our General Discussion area, thank you.

Hello again @nicholas_steel, I will be popping this thread into our General Discussion area now. If you have any more feedback, please make sure to post in this area instead for our community team and devs to notice, thank you > https://discussions.ubisoft.com/category/649/general-discussion?lang=en-US

Thank you for pointing this out, the problem should get fixed with next week's Game Update

Fair enough, @nicholas_steel - I'll pass that on to our team. Thanks for the feedback!

In the meantime, I know it's a bit more cumbersome, but using win+shift+s to open the snipping tool and using that, since it defaults to putting the snip on your clipboard - that could be a useful workaround.

Hey there everyone, thanks for your posts! My apologies for merging them all together - I understand you probably weren't discussing the same thing.

We're only able to give official support for Anno in English on these forums, and we encourage only English discussions, too.

For support or discussions about Anno in German, please go to our German forums: https://discussions.ubisoft.com/category/649/allgemeine-diskussionen?lang=de

Alternatively, we also offer official support at our support website, in German: ...

We have received an update from the Ubisoft Connect team that a fix has been applied for the issue mentioned above. The issue with the Game Update 12 rollback should be solved now.

Please be aware there also are general connectivity issues with Ubisoft Connect which might impact you, resulting in an "incompatible savegame" warning mid-game (can usually be resolved by restarting Ubisoft Connect), issues in multiplayer and with the cloud synch feature.
For those, please follow the Ubisoft Support news on Twitter and the ...

Hey @klugerjunge1806

On this forum, we prefer to stick to English, but we've got our official German forum here: ...

We're still investigating the issues some of you are facing with the "update loop" which is downgrading your game version and blocking savegames with the new content. 
 
We'll let you know as soon as we have news. 
 
A workaround for the time being is to deactivate automatic updates in Ubisoft Connect after the correct update (roughly 2GB) has been downloaded and then to restart Ubisoft Connect. 
 
If you have already created a ticket with the Ubisoft Customer Support, please attach your "launcher_log.txt" file which you can find here by default: C:\Program Files (x86)\Ubisoft\Ubisoft Game Launcher\logs 
 
 
You have also reported several new bugs to us (e.g. with campaign quests, items and the anarchist defectors), which we're currently looking into. 
 
We'll let you know as soon as we have news regarding the next Game Update. 

UPDATE: the issues related to Ubisoft+ and the Free Weekend have now been resolved. As a compensation, we decided to extend the Free Weekend until September 8th. Thank you for your patience and happy gaming! 

You might have already checked yourself yesterday, but for completeness sake: The regular models have not been touched, but for their skyscraper variants, the base modules were adjusted to better fit. They basically have a flat roof in those cases, should one remove the modules on top.

They should not have any of their files changed, but I'll see if I can get a definitive answer for you.
