Forge of Empires Dev Tracker

A short update to the previous announcement:
There are still some assets missing in the 1.252 version of the game. If you don't have the beta app you will encounter longer loading times when looking at these missing assets until you have version 1.253 downloaded and installed.
We are sorry for the inconvenience.

Dear Panda Lovers,

With the next update, we will do some smaller adjustments.

• We have replaced the Victory Tower - Lv. 1 and Upgrade Kit in the Daily Specials with the Sentinel Outpost - Lv. 1 and Upgrade Kit.
• The Event duration we announced as 22 days, but it was only 21 days in game. It is intended, that it is only 21 days, so we removed the 22nd daily quest.
• You no longer need to finish 55 quests to get the last milestone. This was the wrong amount and you now need to finish all 51 quests (30 rush, 21 daily).

Dear Kings and Queens,

Dear mobile Kings and Queens,

To make sure you have no issues when the next Guild Expedition starts, make sure to update your app to version 1.252 1.253. If not you could experience long loading times or crashes when looking at rewards not yet added to the 1.251 version of the game. Updating your app will ensure you don't have these problems.
Thank you for understanding.

Wednesday:
Browser/General

• In the Anniversary Event, spamming the spawn button did prevent spawning more pieces until you reload. This no longer happens.
• One task in the St. Patrick's Day Event did not provide a reward nor Grand Prize Progress. We have hotfixed this issue for the live servers and provided the progress and 5 Forge Points per completed task, that did not provide a reward previously.
• In GvG defeating or deleting a siege on a sector that should be blacked out did not black it out and allowed guilds to siege beach sectors, even if it should not be possible. We have fixed that issue so the sector will be blacked out correctly.
