Umm so the idea was that we may run some more experimental tests on the closed Alpha testing track in Google Play store, and this way we can have people opt-in to be part of that. I was quite torn whether to enable switching your choice after you made it but since it’s a bit of a hassle to manually add/remove emails to the alpha test track I kinda do want to discourage choosing it willy nilly. Makes sense?
TL;DR Choosing Beta = safer and get features in a more balanced state, Alpha = potentially get to see some experimental stuff that might not even make it into the game but higher risk of getting progress wiped more often
Allright I may do some changes to it still so don’t start spamming it out wildly quite yet…! But here it is: https://discord.gg/tRT7Wrn
If you catch something I missed/didnt configure right lmk@Sangrial any reason to not always put it at the furthest corner then? 🙂 Basically I don’t see throne room placement a meaningful choice right now, change my mind. The door also acts as a spawn point for troops, so I maybe when troop strats become more viable you might wanna put it right at the front to get them in there faster.
the 3rd stone wall says “missing localization”
Good catch. Fixed it
Also, scrolling on the description of items doesn’t work, everytime i try to, it deselects the item
We’re aware of this unfortunately. You can drag an item any item to the right side anywhere then it let’s you use the description box normally until we can squash that bug
Also, there should be a way to earn exp quicker.
Either getting more exp from having a higher streak, or a building (like the farm/village)I’ll probably make the exp scale with your own power score on top of the current scaling, which takes into account the disparity between you and your opponent. That means it already does kinda have a bonus for winstreak albeit indirectly
Maybe increase the amount of space we have to place items. I just went up against a level 63 or so bot. I mean, I won without being hit, but still.
Oh wow. What kind of build are you using if I may ask? Btw increasing build area is something we did actually consider, though I would still keep the smaller area at start of game to not overwhelm new players so perhaps the expansion would be something to reach and unlock as part of the game progress
Well I gave ballistas the good ol’ nerf bat as band aid fix while we work on the new AI stuff. It’s a pretty big overhaul so fixing shields is easier said than done 😀 Let me know if the tier 3 ballistas are still feeling too strong and I can further nerf them for now
Yeah we don’t currently destroy your castle when we changed power score. My suggestion is go restructure it and try to play with the new values 🙂 What do you think would be the better mechanic: destroy castle when we made balance changes that put you over the line, or that after patch you can’t go into battle or save your castle if it’s over limit after balance changes? Or something else?
It should work now but you probably need to clear your cache. Much apologies! Depending on your browser you should be able to do this for the site individually, so you don’t lose your saved passwords etc for other sites. Be careful so you don’t clear your whole cache, unless you understand what it does and you’re okay with that. For example firefox go to history -> right click gs.phz.fi -> forget about this site, same should work for chrome.
Thanks for the fast heads up! We’re fixing it right now. Unfortunate side effect of website platform update
That idea of different types of shields is very awesome! Thank you! Instead of having them all on the same upgrade path though we could split them to new interiors, something like this:
- Arcane Shield
Remains as the hard counter to physical damage with it’s blocking and bouncing as it currently is
- Fire Shield
Absorbs projectiles then unleashes a fiery area of effect based on the amount of damage taken in. Maybe grows or shrinks as it takes shots in
- Ice Shield
Slows projectiles that enter it drastically but they still remain physics simulated and can fall down/do damage as normal (they will do less damage with slower speed)
Through the upgrade tiers they would get better stats such as size, grow speed, uptime, etc as well as increasing power score cost ofcourse. The real juicy part comes in interactions: We’ve been toying with the ideas of adding different elementals for a while now and if we expand that concept to shields that adds another layer of combinations. For example if ice projectile hits into fire shield — instead of adding power it will subtract from it, or even disarm it entirely.
What do you think?
Yep that’s my bad. I’ve attempted to remedy it by digging up atleast partially the notes of missed patches from in game patch notes files. They’re under the same topic as newest version.
Noted. Basically it comes down to what the integrations are like. I’m not so sure we would make our own account system from scratch at this point, because if we would spend much time and effort developing that it would come at a cost of new content, and content is in our top priorities going forward along with essential stuff like AI improvements 🙂 But like I said having any kind of cloud save to begin with comes first on that front.
