We just hit the second week since the launch of Anno 1800 and while we are busy dissecting your detailed feedback and analyzing our data, you have been busy sharing not only your thoughts but also your creations with us. Without further ado, let us dive into this week’s Anno Union topics.
We just had our first patch today, including some bugfixes for known issues. You can check the full patch notes below:
ANNO 1800 – Patch 01
Fixed several crashes.
Fixed several Multiplayer Desyncs.
Fixed an issue for the Steam version, that made the games FPS drop significantly.
Fixed a rare issue, getting no further quests, after loading a savegame that has been created while a Newspaper was displayed.
Added some balancing fixes:
Diplomacy: Lowered the cooldown of “Flattering” and “Gifting” from 60 mins to 30 mins.
Diplomacy: Negotiations in the late game now cost ~70% less.*
Visitors: Visitors are now more generous (Visitor income increased by 50%).
This was just the beginning as we will bring you further patch updates as well as free content and season pass DLC throughout the year.
To give you a bit insight in what we are currently looking at: Right now, we are sitting together with the team and talk through various feedback points raised by the community. For the next balancing update, we have our eye on topic such as influence, royal taxes, ship balance and ship AI behavior. As soon as we know what we exactly going to do in the next patch, we will keep you updated here in the Anno Union.
Our numbers clearly show that most of you just having a jolly good time playing the game right now. We are busy on various ends; some of the team took a small break while the rest of us work on the various elements of our post-launch plans, such as patch updates and upcoming content.
For that, we will continue to use the Anno Union to give you updates about the development of the game but after the release of Anno 1800, the focus will shift a bit more towards community creations and spotlights and the cadency of blogs might vary. That does not mean that we won’t continue to bring you gamedev blogs and livestreams covering upcoming content though!
Let’s start today with just some of the content from Anno fans out there.
First spotlights goes to the Anno 1800 Fandom Wiki
The perfect place to get really deep into all the nifty details of Anno 1800 or even to share your knowledge with other fans. The Anno 1800 fan wiki is just a great and continuously growing collection of articles about the content of the game (perfect for browsing through on your second screen while playing the game).
Nutritional habits of the 19. Century by Injustpotato
Reddit user Injustpotato calculated tons of very elaborate data and used probably a few bottles of wine (just for measurement) to create this scientifically proven and highly sophisticated chart about the sometimes questionable consumption rate of your Anno 1800 residents.
I mean we are called Annoholics after all, right?
The Anno 1800 consumption calculator by Schwubbe
And to stay in-topic, community member Schwubbe demonstrated some serious engineering skills (and probably 1.1kg Coffee/min) to put together his Anno 1800 consumption calculator. It is great to see for us how many users are already working on various tools for the game, do you have some favorites you want to share with us in the comments?
Please stay calm, nothing to see here! By Dr. Rodney McKay
Everything is fine, nothing to worry about, just stay calm and enjoy the beauty of Anno 1800’s Konami Code 
And to give credit where credit is due: Todays Union Update header picture highlight – Annoholic FairZone on Twitter!
That was it for today, we will return with future Union Updates and continue to spotlight your creations. So if you created something cool, if it is a tool, a whole fan project or just a beautiful screenshot, let us know in the comments blog.
In the time being, please continue to share your feedback and creations out there and let us know what you would like to see in the Anno Union during the post-launch season of Anno 1800.
