Dear players,

First of all, I would like to thank you for your patience! In addition, I would like to apologize for the late feedback from my side, what happened on EUx3n.

Endgame result

On Tuesday, 13th July at 01:07:49 UTC+2 the World of Wonder "TÜRK ☾✰" has reached level 100.

But the world did not finish.

We have checked the endgame results with the following outcome:

• As you can see in the game, the winner of the game world is the Kingdoms “Multis”!
• The wonder of the world “TÜRK ☾✰” has first finished level 100!

Congratulation to the winner!

Victory points:

The second place goes to the Kingdom “TÜRK ☾✰” and the third place to “TR+CZ”.

There would have not been any changes, even if the world had finished later.

The victory points in the Hall of Fame remain unchanged, even if they changed after the actual end of the game world. The victory points do not affect the ranking, it would remain unchanged.

Wonder of the World:

The second place goes to “Multi International” and the third place to “✞ Монастырь ✞”.

This is shown not correctly in game, but within the next days, we will adjust the Hall of Fame.

Some of you continued to play and may also gained achievements that were not related to the end of the game. We have not corrected these and they are still available.

The official world end date is Tuesday, 13^th July 2021 at 11:07:14 UTC+2. It’s possible that in the player rankings, individual players may still have changed their rankings. These will remain at the same level.

Here now in detail what exactly happened on Monday and what we will do:

On Monday morning a lot of attacks were sent to the WW “TÜRK ☾✰”. The WW owner noticed that merchants had issues arriving in time and due to this, a lot of reinforcements starved.

Later this happens again, this time on the WW “TÜRK ☾✰” and on the WW “Multi International”. With the same impact: reinforcements starved.

The game was a bit too slow to always to process the constant resource deliveries needed to prevent the troop starvation in time. Normally the game is able to handle even such a huge number of attacks. This means there are other reasons why the merchants got stuck.We are currently analyzing the reasons and will search for the best options to prevent such issues in future.

Restore Troops:

We have thought about restoring the troops, but decided against it. The reason was, that we have to restore them for every single player, wich would be mostly impossible. If we restore them for all players at once, we had risk to cause a huge event jam. In addition, the troops will appear in the villages which have built the troops and have to be sent again to the WW. That means a lot of troops would starve again because no one expects to have from one minute to the next a lot of troops in the own account.

So the game world is now finally finished and you players of EUx3n had a very rare experience that this time the game world did not end with the building of the Wonder of the World at level 100.

Congratulations once again to the three winning kingdoms!

Many greetings

Your Travian Kingdoms Team

You say that this major bug still remains in the game and can be present in every game world and TravianGames is at the mercy of the players. The best thing TravianGames can do is pray for the mercy of the players, for about 2 months this issue will not be fixed.

Quote from Unknown

I just wanted to say that I understand the frustration when things don't go as plan. That is why we have been patient with some of the comments that are not very gracious, but it is understandable.

We ourselves are caught out of place by all this.

Our dev team is investigating the issues mentioned, it is not something we want to see I asure you.

I don't have any extra information to give you at this moment, but wanted to ensure that we are not ignoring you, just a bit surprised and investigating how we can understand what has happened and how we can try and ensure it doesn't repeat in future.

I am not going to pretend we have everything at hand... but I can asure you we are doing our best given the circumstances.

I can only ask for your patience, I know it is not easy, but we need time while we get to understand what happened and how we can fix it for the future.

This bug isn't new for TravianGames. The same bug happened 2-3 years ago at the World Final, which was the most important event for Travian. It would certainly happen in Travian Kingdoms one day. If you were a forward-thinking company, you would have taken the precautions since that day. As a player, I stated that the server infrastructure was insufficient 1 year ago, and I heard the company's popular lie: yes, we value your thoughts and we will evaluate them.

Quote from Sharley#RU

Kingdom TÜRK ☾✰ - must say thanks that we didn't attack them and they take their second. But they cry that's they lost def from hungry. And? It's can't change results. Nobody attacked on their WW.

Don't cry - END the server.

I guess nobody realizes that this is a weapon that can destroy the game. Right now a player can starve all Multis defenses, all he needs to do is 2,000 attacks. Of course it's my fault, I've discovered before that it's impossible to explain something to people on the forum. I wish you fun games, I hope you will play this game for years and make TravianGames rich. They will provide better experiences to the players with the money they earn

Quote from Skadi

Hi,

thank you for reporting this. We are currently checking what exactly has happend. Please have a little patience.

And do me the favor and do not write about "The XXX", players of a particular nation. We are all players, no matter which nation we belong to!

Best regards,

Skadi

I already know that TravianGames is the culprit. Everyone should know this. With a few codes, cheats and bugs can be completely eliminated, but this time TravianGames loses players, the money. I haven't wasted any more time and money on TravianGames in 1 year. You must try too. My advice to everyone who continues to play this game, don't blame each other for cheats and bugs. Russians, Europeans, Turks, Sharley, Rfr, Unknown ... it doesn't matter. Fight with TravianGames instead of fighting each others.

650 attacks were entered by this player and the 5m defense was lost from the world wonder.

Good morning Unknown, BridgetB and Skadi. Are you aware of the great loss in the BBash EUx3N world ? Let's start over, but this time you will have to take the server time back.

Let's start over. Three years ago, a player exposed the massive abuse in the game on the forum.The kingdom named RfR discovered a bug in the coding of the rally point, and using it, they used the codes to figure out whether every incoming attack was real or not. You ignored it for two years until last year the player again exposed it on the forum. You solved this problem, but you didn't care how many kingdoms and players won the game world using this bug. You knew that this bug was used in the TEST game world played at that time, but you did not get the server time back.

Again last year, a kingdom took a World Wonder on vacation and leveled up. BridgetB said that she trusts the players about this tactic(bug) and they will produce tactics against this tactic You let that game world be played like that, you didn't turn back the time of the game world, and another unfair game world was played.

And what happened this morning is the bug that the Russians made against the Romanians in the Travian Legend Final before. A player named Reksay from the kingdom of Multis sent 650 attacks to the world wonder of the TÜRK ☾✰ kingdom at the same time, and after these attacks, 5 million defenses were lost from the world wonder. Maybe you can cover up this event, maybe you can decide not to take the game world back. You will solve this bug after 2 months and all kingdoms that learn this bug for 2 months will use this bug.

I am extremely happy that I left this game 1 year ago, which did not improve itself, no mistakes were fixed, even if it was fixed, it has been a long time, and TravianGames sees players only as money gain. Also, the 200% increase in gold prices was extremely fun. TÜRK ☾✰ kingdom told me about this incident and they asked me what happened. I just stepped foot in this forum again just to announce this bug to everyone. I have no interest with Bbash EUx3N game world, TÜRK ☾✰ kingdom or this stupid game.

Quote from Unknown

Can you elaborate please @LovëGood, how would you reduce it or how would you edit it?

Wonders of the World are not affected by the population bonus,you can enable this for all villages or or you can reduce the percentage impact of the population currently in the game. It's a software incident,change codes I think discuss this issue now because it will come to the fore in the coming months.

The population effect on defense and attack must be removed or reduced. This will be the new feature to be abused. You can take a look at the TEST server for a better understanding.

They relocate new accounts to the game and establish a kingdom from them and plunder them until the last day.I am gradually trying to think that the damage of Menhir is more than good things of Menhir,or really multihunters are like robots in the game, if cheaters aren't get caught in the system.

There are two ways to solve it:

Menhir is completely removed,but the good parts of Menhir will disappear as well.

A multihunter system that can apply not only what the system shows,but also what it knows.These guys are not caught in the system check it out after 3 days ban these accounts and looter.After all,these guys were teleported here,then expelled from the kingdom,then looted.Is being multihunter is to wait for them to forget the VPN to get penalty ?

pasted-from-clipboard.png

0 prestige new players joined to a kingdom on day 8 but they left after relocation.

I forgot one of the most important issues.As Mayo stated earlier,if someone is on the GameDesigner team(if we have a team),it would be great for them to actively use the forum and exchange ideas with the players.

For Example

SECRET SOCIETY

Also,a player receives a warning when attacking a friend in the same kingdom,and should receive this when attacking someone in the same secret society.

It is ironic that you cited Legends as an example as someone who suffers from cheaters Everyone knows that illegal actions are now considered legal in Legends.

That training phase is a precaution against bots thrown into the game.If there was no such stage,3-4k bot would be thrown into the game worlds like in Legends.

Quote from Tiitana

If this comes it shoud be available only after t2 items come out to prevent abusing in early game

Only 1:1 transfer requirement can be set within the kingdom.

Quote from smash_RU

It is critical to have server without delays. But there are more important things to correct.

Priority 3 (normal).

Maybe it is the most important thing for a game.Without a strong server infrastructure, the gaming experience is not enough.

Quote from smash_RU

Doesn't need to see player's villages in kingdom. If you want, create secret society.

Only the kings and dukes should be able to see the governors' soldiers without the need for society.It is a big problem for non-premade kingdoms that every governor can see each other's soldiers.

Quote from smash_RU

You mean gold bought in Russia should be more than gold bought in EU?

Yes, agree.

Priority 3 (normal)

I mean pricing for non-European regions should be regional.Currently,there is exchange rate pricing in non-European regions.

Quote from smash_RU

Didn't get the point. Create bug report if necessary.

We should be able to delete topics in kingdom and secret society.For exeample : An attack is coming and a title has been opened for this attack.It does not need to remain in the kingdom chat after the attack is over.

MARKETPLACE

There should be a kingdom-only tab in the market so that players in the kingdom can easily trade between each other.

Since the roster has been renewed from the beginning,I would like to try my luck one last time.Maybe the managers( Unknown , Skadi )who really wanted to return the game to its former popularity have started to work.

SERVERS

Travian game servers are inadequate in infrastructure.There is lag at the beginning of every server and the players cannot start the game properly.First of all, TravianGames should take care of this and refresh all of its servers.Apart from that, the server crashes for a few hours after major battles in the game world.But the most important problem is that while sending an attack or defense in a game where seconds are very valuable, the server-induced delays of 1-2 seconds, not caused by the player,can change the fate of everyone who plays the game.TravianGames should renew all servers and provide a seamless service to players.

MOBILE APPLICATION

Nowadays,playing games has become mobile.The game has a mobile app,but it really has millions of bugs in it and offers an inadequate experience.Simply,the card game cannot be played in mobile.A company like TravianGames needs to see the course of the game industry and spend more resources on the mobile platform.With a decent mobile application, Travian can return to the old popular days,and we players can continue to play this game on our phones in a fun way.

ADVERTISEMENT POLICES

I do not even think that the game has an advertisement.I have never come across it before.If a survey is made,it turns out that the players are promoting this game.TravianGames needs to make ads specific to this game. If new players do not come,the community will not develop.New players should also be aware of this game.

PRICE POLICY

Players from all over the world even countries with strong local servers are playing this game.The currency of every country is not the Euro,and TravianGames may be a bit more player-friend than its pricing policy.Many companies (Steam,Amazon,EA,Netflix)have country-specific pricing policies.The biggest reason they can't do this is of course players who shop from outside of their region to buy gold for a cheaper price,but there are various ways to avoid this,by using one of these ways,TravianGames can also offer special pricing for players outside of the EU,thus increasing the amount of gold purchased by players and automatically their earning.

COMPETITION

The biggest reason why this game is enjoyable for me is the competition.The game is played in a more defensive way rather than an aggressive style of play.The most important reason for this is the current VP system.Each kingdom in Top10 or Top5 should be able to steal VP from each other, but there should also be some percentage of it.If you can steal 50 VP from the first kingdom, you get 25 from the second kingdom and 15 from the third kingdom.Thus,the top kingdoms do not only have to play defense after a certain period of time,and the kingdoms. have multiple strategies to get VPs.

Second,crowded kingdoms with more than 2 WWs are drastically reducing the game competition.They are crowded and powerful from other kingdoms, limiting what their opponents can do when they have 3 WWs.The number of WW that a kingdom can receive should be limited to 2.Thus,competition is protected and we do not see kingdoms gifting WW to each other.

In long-distance wars,especially in battles using siege,kingdoms can easily close their treasures.Treasury closure period should be extended.

It doesn't make much sense to use a spy with no attack power only to track the XP of the hero.This is a feature that prevents large and detailed operations from being performed.In the game,defense is more advantageous than attack, and this feature makes that advantage even greater.The attacking side needs to be very careful and even if it cannot take action against only 1 spy,the whole operation plan is deciphered.My suggestion is that the spying process doesn't get XP.

INNOVATIONS FOR KINGDOMS AND SECRET SOCIETIES

Kings and dukes are guardians and rulers of a kingdom.They should be able to see the players' villages as in the secret society.

While the map is being painted,there is also the ability to paint for the secret society,but this feature does not work, this error should be fixed.

Subject headings that are opened should become erasable.

New roles must come for both the kingdom and the secret society.Not every kingdom uses programs like discord.Even newly established kingdoms are difficult to recruit.If roles such as attack commander and defense commander are added to the game, communication and job sharing will be quite good.

EVENTS

Activities such as forum competitions,events,campaigns should be in abundance.

The game should be an official discord channel.It would be nice to have an official environment where special rooms are opened for the servers and players can meet each other.

Building and soldier skins have been changed in Travian Legends.We also need such changes.

The images of the game worlds specific to seasons,special periods and big events may change.Like a snowy map in winter.

Detailed statistics,detailed announcements and news after the game worlds honor all the players who play that game world.

Kingdoms should be encouraged to use the forum actively and each association to open its own report page.

Hun and Egyptian race should be added to the game.

INSUFFICIENT TRAPPER

Trapper is the weakest special building in this game.Changing the building makes unstoppable the Gallic race instead a few improvements can be added to this building.I have three different suggestions :

- Captured soldiers should be able to be executed.

- Captured soldiers should be able to be returned for a certain amount of raw material, depending on their type.

- Should be able to convert a certain part of the captured soldiers into their own troops after a certain period of time by adapting their race.

FIGHT AGAINST CHEATING

- The biggest issue is slow feedback, they should be fixed.

- The penalties should be made a little heavier.After a certain repetition,the account should be perma banned.

- Should be more multihunters.

- The game gap should be closed as soon as possible.(As an example of this,I predicted that it could be misused when the vacation mode first came out and I gave feedback about it,but I was ignored and eventually it became unavoidable.)

- The rule book shared with the players must be followed.(The biggest example of this : "any account can't be opened for the benefit of another account",but multihunters are ignoring this rule.)

I tried to summarize the things that came to my mind. Since my main language is not English,I hope I wrote it understandable.My biggest hope is that the new officials work to improve the game. If they want more detailed exchange of ideas, they can reach me from discord LovëGood#9971

Quote from Mayo

There are 12 hours cooldown on attacking someone after menhiring.

It isn't enough for speed servers.I didn't see this action in normal server but maybe it isn't enough for normal servers too ...

An account must not be teleported after 7 days (3 days for speed) and the teleported player must not lose their resource areas.

Quote from Mayo

Just for your information, there are no known developers actively working on travian kingdom, all the developers that used to work on this project were moved onto other games. I've been waiting for 2 years for a developer to show up now. When there is a major issue they ask support from a former developer to fix the issue but beside this the game is stalling. No new features in the past months, hence why there are no more test servers.

They wanted to send developers to reduce their losses,but if they brought more developers and made a smooth mobile interface to this game,brand new players would come,they would have more gains.A game with such simple mechanics for 5 years does not even have a smooth mobile interface.TravianGames still wants to eat the bread of the successful business he did 15 years ago,but every company that cannot keep up with innovation is destroyed.

Skadi  Unknown  BridgetB If you really want to repair this game,start by getting the mobile app up properly and discuss it with people who really know this game and consider what they say.
