Hey Polytopians!
What’s changed? Let’s talk about it, but before we do, we’d like you to know that there are ZERO Cymanti changes in this update. We agree with you that they need to be adjusted, and we tested out some ideas in the beta, but we feel that they need more time in the workshop before we’re happy with them. We’ll be implementing a Cymanti Rework in the near future, so stay tuned.
Without further ado, here’s the changes:
* Ai-Mo now starts with Philosophy instead of Meditation, and a Mind Bender to go with it
* Extra starting Stars for some tribes to help them out:
* Xin-xi begins with 7 Stars
* Oumaji begins with 6 Stars ( that’s not a typo, they begin with 6)
* Hoodrick begins with 7 Stars
* Quetzali begins with 7 Stars
* Yădakk begins with 7 Stars
* Luxidoor begins with 2 Stars in addition to their upgraded Capital (to match their wealth)
* All other tribes begin with 5 Stars
* Tech can be researched “backwards,” so Vengir can go from Smithery to Mining without Climbing
* Forges can be built on Forests
* Temples give 100p per level of growth instead of 50p
* Cost of “Burn Forest” down to 3*
* Polytaur cost up to 3*
* Cost of new Embassies begins cheaper, but increases based on the number of Embassies you have
Polaris changes:
* Corrected Glide ability to give 1 extra move (instead of double)
* Adjusted Skate ability so Battle Sled only has 3 movement on ice (instead of 4)
* Ice Fortress now has Escape and Static
* Ice Archers get 1 attack
General changes:
* Multiplayer should not fall back to “60 days” turn time limit
* Multiplayer should not fall back to “Perfection” game mode
* Solaris Crater stays a Crater when an opponent takes over territory
* Solaris Lava Bank stays a Lava Bank when an opponent takes over territory
That is all the changes for now, but don’t be surprised if we make more adjustments over time. If you’d like to give us your feedback on these changes, or just want to say “Hi”, stop on by our Discord!
Have fun out there!
Sick glad you guys are still improving the game.
Nice update, but I think something has to be done about Kickoo tribe, I’ve been able to 3 star with every unlocked tribe except kickoo, and I’ve been trying for months. I don’t know what it is but I feel they are either at a disadvantage starting out or I just suck at using them.
hey, it helps if you’re nearby oceans to use at your advantage. I would recommend pushing for the big battleships early game and using that to expand.
i’m not the best strategy-wise but that strategy worked for me – Kickoo was the first tribe I 3 starred.
I think you suck at them. I’ve every tribe at 3 stars, honestly Kickoo is one of the most OP normal tribes. You must explore and cap fast before upgrading tech tree. Their advantage lies in dominating the seas. So go that route first. It’s always a good starting point to use the tribes special abilities first. And sometimes you need a little bit of luck with spawning.
Booooooo
Ok to remember
This is good advice but you could say it less rudely sir.
I’m sorry if it sounds rude, I was just honest, he asked if he sucked at it. So my answer is yes. If he mentioned it himself, I don’t feel rude… but the internet is a sensitive thing nowadays. People should know that having critique is about “facts” not about the person. When you suck at something it doesn’t mean “you suck”, that’s a huge difference. I suck at so many things, I’d rather have someone telling me “you suck at it” and learning me the real thing than saying politely that you just can improve a little. That’s not helping at all! You can be nice and ignoring the fact that sometimes you’ll need to hear the truth. I just said the same as the guy with the upvotes, maybe even better advice (imho) but because people are too sensitive they can’t handle it… how do you want to learn if you can’t handle feedback you asked for?! You put the words (suck at it) in my mouth.
U just suck XD (no offense) *kickoo is kinda bad tho*
You will get THOOSE three stars (Dangit auto correct stop all caps-Ing my words!) you WILL GET THEM I believe in you
When will this be released out of beta?
Im really happy that they’re nerfing Polaris, it was way too over powered. Great patch 🙂
They should have nerfed Cymanti
Je suis d’accord surtout leur géant qui s’il parvient à tuer des troupes devient ingérable. La seule manière pour les vaincre que j’ai trouvé c’est de se battre sur l’océan et d’éviter le combat au corps à corps.
They said they are working on that, I agree. Cymanti is OP.
First
IOS battle pass not appearing anywhere
Would love to see an option to play games without cloaks. IMO they ruin games.
Agree
I already wrote that it would be good to let players turn off some technologies before the battle, so that they could customize the game for themselves
Ok, depends on how you use it. If you are the victim of it, that’s terrible. But if you use them for your advantage they can benefit you greatly. Its always good to improve on the things you don’t like. I personally love the cloakies. Especially with the Vengir skin, the little ghost 👻. But you can counter them with battleship + knight. First for collateral damage, second to finish them all (or most). Having a walled city can help also, or terrain protection (archery upgrade gives 1,5x defence). But cloakies only come end game, meaning probably you’ve waited too long to push and now your enemy uses your big city against you.
I appreciate the improvements, thx for the feedback!!
Stop changing shit and add new stuff. New tribe, new skins. New modes. I dont wanna keep playing the sane shit only sliiiiightly different…
Then don’t play it ? They update the game to make it better for everybody
Aww man, i really liked multiplayer Perfection mode 🙁
Why ai-mo, their feature was to stay peaceful for the first 5 turns and build Altar of Peace. Now the whole philosophy changed😞
pushing 33% off tech tree so early game will definitely be nice though!! 🙂
For the reason that the admin of this site is working, no uncertainty very quickly it will be renowned, due to its quality contents.
BRo No updates for Kikoooooo
Well, good, but Cymanti is what I came here to read about.
Yay
I would like to be able to see how many times a player has simply left the game without giving up. Then there should be a setting that only lets me play against opponents who don’t exceed a specified limit. I find it such a shame that many can’t just give up, and you have to wait minutes for your turn again. It ruins the fun of the game.
I think this balance is very good, and this will change many ways of playing tribes.
cool
What does the Luxidor one mean? The wording is very confusing
I think, they only get 2 Stars, because they already have a city upgrade. But I don’t know if that’s the right way…
It would be great if you could propose a draw and your opponent could then either drop the game or accept it.
And both got victory points
