Re: FIELD OF GLORY KINGDOMS

These 2 features are identified as the ones the most often requested. It does not all depend on me, but we will try to get something. This is not 100% certainty though, there might be an architecture problem on (2). Hi - Thanks. Here is an idea on the second point, although I am not sure it address...

Re: FIELD OF GLORY KINGDOMS

Pocus - Is it likely the following quality of life improvements for MP games will be included? 1. Add the ability to send/receive confidential messages to/from a player/player group within the game engine/service? Right now, you can't conduct confidential diplomacy unless you exchange emails. Otherw...

Given the lack of further news, one assumes beta for this is slipping into 2023? Any update?

Re: FIELD OF GLORY KINGDOMS

Thanks Pocus! Sounds like we need to clone you! I hope you succeed in your lobbying for changes by the other teams. Those changes will really elevate the FOG system to another level. Also, great to see mini campaigns!

Re: FIELD OF GLORY KINGDOMS

Hi Pocus - Just to circle back on some suggestions made earlier in development, some quick questions: 1. Is it likely that when released the new game will have an in-game messaging capability that will include the ability to send confidential messages to both single players and groups? That is despe...

Re: HUGE Commerce-bonus (nation-wide)?

I think the economic system needs tweaking, particularly how it interacts with army sizes. Some thoughts: - In game after game, I have seen leading nations, usually Hellenistic, reach the point where they have so much gold the reduction events are near-meaningless. At that point, the only limit on e...

Re: Pocus - Medieval Empires?!?

Thought I'd stir the pot, now that is has been three months or so, and see if we summon The Pocus to lay down his wisdom: - any closer to release of next FOG:E system game? - any hints on what it will be? :mrgreen: - will the game have more than just a big campaign scenario, but also smaller campaig...

Re: Ideas for Next Patch

Mostly you've suggested good ideas, but I want to point out these two that would hurt gameplay: Food - likewise, it seems too easy to stockpile food. There should be more frequent winnow of food stores due to pests, crop diseases, spoilage and weather, ameliorated by advances in technology like foo...

Re: Pocus - Medieval Empires?!?

April 2nd is the 1275th anniversary of birth of Carolus Magnus, also known as Charlemagne, King of the Franks and Lombards and Emperor of the Romans. I can think of no finer date to announce the new game. :mrgreen:

Ideas for Next Patch

Since in another thread Pocus mentioned that, prior to release of the new game, FOG:E may get one or two patches, I thought I would start a thread to flag aspects to look at as far as improving the game, particularly to making it a bit more historical and realistic. Welcome others adding their ideas...

Re: PBEM++ servers need in-game messaging

That would work like the unique broadcasted message mechanically, except you could send several and could tick on or off to whom you are sending it. You should also add an "ignore" function to address the issue of "push" messaging, in case one of the players decides to use priva...

Re: Pocus - Medieval Empires?!?

1. If time allows, but no guarantees. There will be an Empires patch (or two) dealing with bugs before the release of next game though. Now if you count as improvements stuff related to UIs improvements, yes. 2. We would like to add some middle-sized scenarios yes, but again this will depend of the...

Re: Pocus - Medieval Empires?!?

Two questions which shouldn't require revealing any state secrets. 1. When the next game using this system is released, is there likely to also be an update/patch to FOG:E that would include any improvements to game mechanics or new features (plus of course any outstanding FOG:E bug fixes along the ...

Re: PBEM++ servers need in-game messaging

It was definitely something that was considered for Empires. In the end it was determined that players were more likely to want to use alternative messaging approaches rather than keeping the game running just to chat or check for messages. There is no resistance to it, just a lack of clear value a...

Re: PBEM++ Question

To Slitherine:

Will in-game player-to-player (or groups of players) private messaging functionality ever be added? Right now, players have to share emails and conduct diplomacy that way as a work-around, since in-game messages go to and are seen by everyone.

Best,
