Yeah, we need to be able to choose a spawn point.
I agree. So far I’ve been eve chaining in order to save our town, but that means the eve has to be there in order for others to be spawned into the same area. And it also runs the risk of losing an advanced town if the eve dies. I think it would be better if everyone can work on the town at any time even without the eve there.
Let me first say that I do think this is worth consideration. There is a second side to it though: if being able to build a full sized mega city is always a given, then where is the accomplishment? Isn’t it more satisfying to succeed if there’s a challenge to do it and it’s difficult (but possible) to succeed? If it takes you five tries before utter success?
Maybe the way to go is to have several options, like you mention, like easy, intermediate and hard?
I’m happy for all feedback. It helps pinpoint the weak areas and pain points for the players. The private servers service is not fixed for all eternity - we will definitely work to improve it further.
in fact, we are making two bell towers in two eve towns in my server. I think we are good for the home marker for now cos we can hv bell ring later, BUT, if ppl can’t choose to spawn as eve or baby, the bell tower can only use when owner/ co owner is over 40 and no female in the village >.< that’s make bell tower less useful. If i can only choose one function to add in private server, maybe ppl can be choose to spawn as eve or baby is better than permanent home marker.
I think there is a fine line between making the game difficult enough to be a challenge and too difficult to the point of it being discouraging. For the second time I have lost a lovely town I was building, I had lag issues and starved so I lost my village. I had a lot of help from my friends and it feels like all our hard work and many hours of play is wasted.
I’ve decided to just be a helper at this point and have given up on the idea of building a town myself because what is the point of even trying when it all goes away and you can never find it again due to connection or lag issues.
If the maps had coordinates so even if you lost your Eve spawn you could still find your way back to your village, or by knowing coordinates you could find the villages of friends it would make it more enjoyable for me I know.
The map is a grid and each grid square could have coordinates: like 111:112 or 111:333 ect. Some sort of compass or permanent home marker would definitely make you feel like your hours of work on a village wasn’t lost for good would be amazing!
Our ancestors were able to use the stars and the sun as a compass to find there way, I believe some system to know where we are would make the game more enjoyable.
The accomplishment is that I’m paying you for access to a private server so I can finally get beyond starting over every single time I play and so that the things I create in game are lasting and meaningful, to me and my friends, not griefer-bait
Building a mega city is not always s given it not going to happen when you only know one other player in the game or if u can only play now again. It would take me and my daughter weeks to build a mega city together and we would have fun doing it if I’m paying extra per m for this service I should be able to choose how I use it. Please remember that many of your customers don’t have the kind of time or the amount of extra people to keep playing the game long enough to get anywhere on a private server with out being able to save your home maker. We arnt all kids and 20 something. As of now it’s only good for people who know a large group of other players or who are happy to abandon their hard work every time they want to play. The whole point of this game is to build for the future the private server has no future so what is the point
I think you make a sound argument. We will enable a permanent home marker for the private friends servers.
You should have it by the weekend.
Thanks for helping us improve the game!
: Happy Dance : Thank you so much! Best addition to the game yet!
Annoying when u die from animal such as snake or boar. Eve spot only stays if u live till 60. I think spot should still be saved if u die from certain animals.
Update: Home markers now persist when you die and spawn again on Private Friends Servers as well as Solo servers.
Don’t get lost.
What about the solo servers?
They always had permanent home marker
Thank you for add that both me and my daughter are very very excited to be able to build together
You’re welcome. Have fun!
that’s the most awesome feature in private server
Dear @Christoffer when I play there I a blue campus and a tan/yellow why is thank and are there any other different colors or just those two. Hope that makes sense. If not I’ll see if I can get some screen shots. :happy:
I am not sure I understand your meaning. Please do add those screenshots, for clarity? Thanks!
Also for the first question I found the answer and would like to thank you for answering in such a fast manner thanks.
