Forge of Empires Dev Tracker

Hello lovely Beta people!

I am Juber and I will be the new Community Manager for the Beta market. I moved from my position as CoCM for the German market. Now I will be here to report bugs, give your feedback to the developers and of course help you with problem you might stumble across.
I already bring a lot of experience from my 1 1/2 years as German CoCM, almost 4 years of moderation there and also now almost 9 years of game knowledge.
Lets try making the game even better than it already is ^^  

Thursday

• It was possible to collect daily castle points twice at midnight
• Halloween items couldn't be exchanged in the Antique's Dealer
• We have added a warning window if players try to attack or negotiate an ignored province in the Guild Battlegrounds

 

Wednesday

• When clicking on the Great Building button in the social tab the game restarted
• The right arrow on the GVG sector infoscreen is too far to the left
• Guild context menu(clicking the gears in the topleft) is not properly aligned
• We have added a No Age Units filter in the unit management that includes Rogues, Military Drummers and Color Guards

 

Hello Beta Queens and Kings,

Today I have to announce a change in Community Management.
I have been offered the chance (and challenge) to become the Community Manager of a new game that is currently still in development by Innogames.
Unfortunately this means that I will be leaving the Forge of Empires team.
Ofcourse I won't be leaving immediatly, I will stay in the background a bit longer to ensure a good transition to the new Community Management and support the team where necessary.

I have had a blast in the last 9 months being the Community Manager of such a great community and this awesome game.
I would like to thank you all for what you've done and your enthousiasm in constantly improving this game.

Keep forging!

Farewell...Lordwasa  

Tuesday

• The chance to uncover an item in the Halloween Event has been increased slightly
• It was not possible to unignore a player

 

Hello Queens and Kings,

For the detailed description of the changes, please see the list below:

Bugfixes

• We fixed an issue where mouse hovering a few units via Army Management, would sometimes not display the full values text.
• We fixed an issue where new founders were not being reassigned on guilds where former founders stopped playing the game.
• The player search function was not working properly in the Global Ranking window when searching for your own nickname. This issue has been fixed now.
• The scrolling function was not responding properly when trying to scroll in the Goods tab of the Inventory Window. This issue was only affecting Mac users, but it is now fixed.
• We fixed an issue where it wasn't possible to disable the Province Tagged confirmation window on Guild Battlegrounds...

Hello everyone!

As of today's Beta Deployment, we have once again made changes to the Horror Circus event buildings.

With this deployment, we have re-balanced the Mystical Organs and Terror Teacups attacking bonus for defending armies, as well as added an attacking bonus for attacking armies to the Terror Teacups building (replacing an atk for def bonus).

Let us know your thoughts in the feedback thread linked to the announcement above!

Sincerely,
Your Forge of Empires Team
