Anno 1800 Dev Tracker

Thanks for your feedback on this, @pitair1 - I've gone ahead and moved your posts to the general chat forum for greater visibility from our teams, and to foster discussion with other players. Thanks again!

@fissilecore When you received a reply on the old forums, it's being investigated. If your report was new, I'd indeed recommend posting it again on the new ones.

Hello everyone,

The new discussion forums are live and available here.

We wanted to inform you that the current forums will go in read-only mode starting from tomorrow, Thursday, July 29th.

Thank you for your attention.

Thank you, banan!
Indeed, for generel forum feedback, that's the place to go.

If it's Anno specific, you can post it here.
We're indeed not transferring threads from the old forum to the new one (as per announcement here: ...

Hey Anno Community,

Today we want to shine some light on the work of the QA teams and give you some insights into our processes: Which roles do each team fulfill? Is there a difference between the work before and after the game release? What’s a Hotfix and when do we make use of it?

For this purpose, we sat down with Dorina, our QA Manager here in Mainz, as well as – for additional insights – Nadiia, Senior Development Tester here in Mainz (previously: QC Project Lead) and Artem, Live QA Specialist.

You can now find the answers to these and several more questions in our latest DevBlog on the ... Read more

It is indeed not a rumor- "The High Life" is planned to come out in Summer 2021, which by our definition ends on September 21st. And while it is true that a lot of games have met with delays during the pandemic, I am hopeful!. So far our DLCs have all met their planned, if I recall correctly.

Hey Anno Community,

For organizational reasons we decided to move the launch of the new forums by one week to July 27th.

From this date onwards the current Anno forums will go into read only mode as announced above and we're looking forward to seeing you all on the new forums.

You can find the Release Notes for Game Update 11.1 (released on June 22nd) here

• A revamped mobile experience
• Faster performance and searching

Hey Anno Community,

Today we are looking for some experienced city builders who are not afraid of heights to join us in the constructions of the first skyscrapers as part of the �The High Life� Technical Test! Similar to what we did last year for �Land of Lions�, this Technical Test will over the course of a few weeks invite a number of Anno Union community members to play Season 3�s last DLC early, and to help us find issues and problems.

Keep in mind that you will be playing new content in an early work-in-progress state (as �The High Life� is scheduled for late Summer 2021), so a certain tolerance for dealing with unfinished game elements, bugs and technical problems is highly recommended. Testers will have access to a closed forum where they can share their experiences and feedback with members of the Anno Dev Team, to ensure that we can deliver an amazing DLC and end to Season 3 (plus the associated free Game Update of course, which will also have man...

Hello!

I will move you to our General Discussions section, as this doesn't appear to be a bug and other players will be able to offer their suggestions.

In the meantime, I recommend having a quick sear... Read more

With �Tourist Season� we�re bringing some color and entertainment to your cities! People far and wide have heard about your vast capitals, your Museum collections, and the delicacies from all around the globe which you have on offer.

In this DevBlog we will go over all new features of the �Tourist Season� DLC: The Tourists themselves, their needs, the bus system, Restaurants and recipes, the new goods you need to produce and the Iron Tower, a new multi-stage monument for your cities.

It�s not all about the Tourists themselves, though, as fulfilling their needs does also have a direct impact on your existing population, as you will soon learn.

Moving to General Discussion section

Hey Anno Community,

Today we want to give you some first insights into the upcoming DLC �Tourist Season�, specifically: the bus system.

When we presented Season 3 in February of this year, we already gave you a first overview as to what you can expect, we mentioned restaurants, recipes and the aforementioned buses. We want to dedicate a separate blog to this specific feature and give you some development insights since it�s the mechanic connecting all other parts of this DLC.

Buses are a new mechanic which is needed to connect your guests, the Tourists, with their Hotels and all amenities of the city: Restaurants, Bars, Variety Theatres, the Zoo and more.
