Yeah but they could of put the new worlds with the english servers instead of making new worlds just update the old ones

They have. The Age updates were FF's way of attempting to provoke people to break their multi-house superpowers and fight each other.

I agree that FF opened far too many new worlds too quickly, however new worlds quickly turn into the massive alliances mentioned above and become stale. The rule changes have not (again imo) been successful in breaking this mindset. FF's options up until now were to attempt to improve old worlds with ruleset changes (which haven't worked) and opening new worlds (which has diluted the player base across many stale worlds).

Something had to give. In-fact many would argue that FF should have created an end game that occurred WITHOUT the say so of 1 x individual whom is the HM of the 'winning' house at the time all the towers are captured. They have hedged their bets by putting the onus on one player in the game world. This is entirely unfair on the individual imo...

EDIT: Spellcheck

I would love to be the man in charge of pressing the button, you also have another 29 people to help you make the decision, If you don't want to push it though and there is people who want to push it I assume you will be hit everywhere. I really think the final age will be very interesting, super speeded armies and with a x4 card in play you could time on anyone on the map quickly. Weapon stashes are there so you should never run out of armies.

Just embrace the change and go with it. I think it sounds pretty impressive, already set back up on w7 for preparation later on.

I have embraced it and look forward to seeing what happens.

I just wonder how many people whom are actually in the HM position will push the button. By the time a world reaches the final age most of the fighters have moved worlds. So we are left with a collection of players possibly more predisposed to keep the worlds running.

Interesting times ahead.

I am deeply sorry for any confusion caused by the errors in the original posting. Due to an unfortunate miscommunication, what was originally posted did not reflect the accurate values for the prizes. As a gamer myself, I can understand the natural frustration felt by players when the early information released differs from the final implementation.

While the mistake was noticed early and quickly corrected, I would like to sincerely apologize to any players who feel slighted or misled. While the incorrect prize values were exaggerated the actual prizes are the most generous that have ever been offered in the history of Stronghold Kingdoms and represent a substantial reward to be claimed if the players on a world should choose to do so.

They are still explained incorrectly on the German news post, e.g. 10k card points for Silver...



Would have ben nice, if you made a news post with a correction of the values instead of silently updating the values hoping noone will notice...

[warlord1799]

you have to be in a house to receive any prizes at all? or is there going to be rewards for crown princes too?

this game sucks. developers do what they want and pretend to fight for the people in this game yet they change the rules every chance they get. if it weren't for a few reasons i wouldnt be playing this game anymore. if it weren't for the fact i put 5 years in this game id quit. im going to quit anyways after w5 ends as ive had enough of developers and people making this game sht. theres many ways to keep the game interesting.

one you can have people actually vote on the changes being made instead of just doing them yourself. you can actually give players more control by keeping out of diplomacy and changing the way the games played. yes we get updates are needed but doing them the way you guys do is pathetic and just plain ignorance. informing people at the right time of major changes is also key in making the game great again. listening to suckers who dont give a rats * about anything degrades our respect in firefly even further. if you want to change things talk about it first to everyone not just thoughs who are active in forums.

in the end i dont give a sht anymore what developers do. its obvious that this game "to them" belongs to them not us. which in all since it does belong to them but i thought that they wanted to give power to the "players" (quoted because they gave power to a player instead of everyone) not them.whatever though i know im bummed out about alot of things and people dont take me seriously but i know whats * when i see it and i dont back down from bullies or let people walk over me. yall do what you want this game will never be like it was.

World 4 is in the last week of the 6th age. The Final age is just around the bend. I am looking forward to seeing where the Royal Towers will be placed.

[Cripper2]

Are the silver prize houses going to need a glory star to get the prize or is it going to be based on some other metric? I am led to believe told on world four h17 are going to move players/factions around so that all the allied houses get a glory star before they end the world

Last Glory round of 6th Age ended on Saturday. No notification of Final Age rollover from Firefly yet.
