1. Fearless Blue Awards
Awards on the Fearless Blue world are at their highest level ever. This is the result of an increase in the number of players on the FB world. The first award on Fearless Blue increased to 370 gold coins. Other awards also increased in numbers and in the number of gold coins.
The total number of gold coins awarded on FB is now 1400+ and increasing. This is 50% more than on the other four worlds.
2. Initial 14 days reset of trade Strategies
Beginners can now change the trade settings from day one. This change is made because of confusion and many questions on this issue from beginners who were wrongly advised on the values they should choose.
However, contrary to many of these remarks, the initial settings are excellent and keep players from destroying their economies in the initial days while they are unaware of the results of their changes.
We advise players to keep the initial setting but we also give them the right to "Improve" their economies if they wish to do so. The initial settings have proven to keep corporations stable and profitable.
3. Simcountry on Facebook
The Simcountry Facebook page layout & messages are improved. The page is frequently updated with relevant Simcountry news.
4. Cost of the Army and the Cost of War
The cost of maintaining the army and the cost of war have been reduced. The reduction is a result of a drop in the number of soldiers and officers needed for some of the weapons. This in turn, reduces the size of the army and the materials it uses.
Also the base price of weapons and ammunition has declined. Many defense related corporations reduced the number of workers they need, lowered other costs as well and produce the weapons at a lower price while maintaining their profitability.
This change is part of a long term process that is aimed at a reduction of cost of war as a percentage of the total cost. Similar changes have taken place before and more reductions are expected in the future.
5. Improved Profitability
We expect the general profitability of countries and enterprises to improve in the coming week as a result of a slight reduction in general pricing and a larger reduction in all the costs of countries and corporations. Some reductions, in cost of government, have taken place in the past days.
6. Vote news
Voting news are now showing on the left frame of the portal page again. They were lost in the recent reorganization of the page.
7. Navy in War, a bug fixed
A serious error was fixed that made it close to impossible to see the navy of your enemy and attack it. The navies now show in the list of targets and can be attacked.
8. Game Levels
Several small changes have been made to the requirements for the highest game levels. The employment level required for game level 16 is now 96. The cash requirements have been reduced in game levels 13 to 16. The changes are the result of player's comments who shared her experiences at these game levels with us.
9. Enterprise Leaders
Enterprise leaders where referred to as Mr. CEO. Now, after some criticism from a (lady) player, it is Mr. or Mrs. CEO. |
