Don't give up, I really believe things are going to get better. Of course we were all expecting a smoother worldwide launch, but ngmoco is not going to throw this game in the crapper and walk away from it. It'll get fixed and the experience will improve.

Just remember not to spend any real $$$ on mojo until it is solid. I can deal with a freemium game being wonky, until I have real money invested in it! :D

Argghh. I don't get it. I received your notification, but I still can't log in. How are you guys getting in?

it's weird because you're on my friends list yet it says "unable to connect" when i try and visit your farm. i can only send you an invite. everything else is broken w/ your account on my end. :(
 
I miss my schoolyard :( Alas, I have persevered. Peas or Wheat? Seems like Peas are a better option unless your completely on it wasting no time after wheat has been grown fully.

Also, the hell is a lightning bug tree?

Are you over 3G or wifi?

Doesn't matter. I tried both. I tried the tip from the ngmoco employee in that thread I linked to(delete app, reboot, reinstall app), and nothing. All I get is "unable to connect to server" 100% of the time.
 
Okay mine shit seems to be working now.

I got your orders in people..

Also I now have the prettiest newby town ever.

Got some roads in.. a nice center piece fountain.. I just spent 30 mins rearanging my town..

I just need to figure out where to stick these businesses lol..

and I need to get more land.. (Need another lvl)


At lvl 9 I already have a pond, lumber mill, school, dress place, and mine.. hahhaha
 
Man.. everything was going so smooth tonight..

Until I hit Lvl 10

then built my new farm.. and its stuck in "Build" mode.. I can't delete it or figure out how too and it won't build.. no worker goes to it and builds. I even deleted an old farm and built another and a worker went to that one and built it but not this one..

:(

Some of your missing things might actually be there. I had to move a couple of my farms to find the missing farms hidden underneath

Definately do this people if you've "lost" stuff. Happened to me and my farms.

My Schoolyard is back :D This game is crack.
 
I'm having fun with this game so far. It's killing my battery life because every time I think I'm done with it I get a notice saying my beans are ready for harvest! I'm saving up for a fortress right now. Only 1700 coins to go!

I'm adding as many people from NeoGAF as I can. How do the friends work? I can just view other people's kingdoms and make things make sounds by touching them, is there more to it than that?

If a friend has some work buildings like a mill, school or mine you can request work from them, the reward varies and both you and your friend get gold and exp, rather helpful.

You can't harvest your friends corn though, jobs only.
 
This is a pretty neat little game. The look and feel of it reminds me of the older AoE games (which I loved). It is, however, still a bit buggy, but with the growing customer base I imagine things will be polished up. The ads are hardly noticeable and the microtransactions aren't necessary unless you really want to speed things up.

And sorry if I spammed some of you with invites, it was bugging out on me.

Buy my dresses, suckers!!
 
It seems to be working, now. But the problem is that this is the most unstable app that I've ever saw.

The game will crash after a few visits to the map, and sometimes i got even freezes that forced me to make a hard reset.

I was just about to say the same. It seems to suck battery faster than any of the other games I have (including Real Racing).

I would say it's due to all the network functions running in the background for We Rule, one of the #1 battery killers for the touch is using wifi alongside a game, imo.
 
Last night, right before I crashed, I checked in on my kingdom and didn't get the "We're upgrading the server" message at all. Since then, it's been running great, right on schedule, with all of my buildings in place.

My only problem is that I'm out of mojo, so I can't fulfill some of the requests to my stores as fast as I'd like at the moment. :) Making good progress though.
 
Now that the game is working.. im absolutely loving it.

By the way.. houses are the biggest scam ever.. 5 hrs for just 2g and 4xp?

They need to change that shit fast.

That's why I've stopped at eight. After I bought the original four houses, I bought four more blue ones thinking that they've give more xp/money. They really need to bring the houses xp/money gain up to speed to match some of the crops that run for the same amount of time.

Though this does bring up what I think is an interesting design choice in this game. Anything that requires more work on the gamers part, yields more xp/money. Which kinda makes sense when you think about it. If I plant 8 24hour crops, I only have to "work" for about 40 seconds total for those crops. 20 seconds to plant, then 24 hours later, 20 seconds to harvest. Whereas if I plant 8 5minute crops (like wheat for example), I (theoretically) have to put in that 40 seconds of work 288 times within a 24 hour period. If you use the same 24 hour time period and compare the xp/money yields.

It's a switch from other "real time" based games I've played but I like it. It rewards you for more time invested in-game...

I think the point is that you're supposed to build ALOT of houses, and it adds up.

Why..

I can build 1 farm (the same size of a house.. put a beans in it and check in 24 hrs and make more money then 20+ houses) :lol

It's way to get money even if you are out of cash and it also works without any supervision. You can't loose the moeny like with the fields.

Corn costs 0g to make

and it takes 45 seconds and u make more in 45 secs then you do with fricken houses in 5 hrs :lol
 
Seems pretty good so far, my plus ID is AxxxJ if anyone wants to add me! Having to resist the urge to buy mojo, it's amazing how much I want to get it. I've got 5 farms of beans brewing mmmm lovely.

I don't think you fully grasp the concept here.

4 gold per house each 4 hours, it's pleasing to log in and see you can claim 150 gold in coins at least 3 times a day, also placing a house nets you exp each time so that 100 gold per house builds up value.

Making 5-10 houses is not worth it, but a whole village of houses is, it's not a short term gain.

I agree. It's all about the real estate and what is put on it. I wonder if you can tear down all the houses and just continue to put up shops/farms? You know, once you've completed the tutorial that requires you to build the houses in the first place.

I might consider rezoning my whole kingdom as "commercial". Go all ferengi on this fool. :lol

You can do that if you wish, I seen kingdoms where it's nothing but 20+ clothing shops, but there is a limit right now as to how many stores will function so not all 20 were clocking in customers.

I like my kingdom, actually looks like people live there.

For the same real estate I can build a business X 5 and set up deliveries etc and make more..

It honestly makes 0 sense.. and with that I dont have to check 4 times a day.. just once or maybe twice.

And also if I wanna check 3x a day I can just set my crops up to be every 6 hrs or something and check those..

Honestly.. there is no point to houses at the moment.. They need to really beef them up.

At lvl 10 I need over 10k xp.. Each house gives me 2..

If I had 50 thats 100xp.. every 4-6 hrs..

Yea... While every 4-6 hrs with some potatoes or something I can make a ton more..

The scaling is just way off. Either tone down farms or tone up houses.
 
Why not farm and collect taxes at the same time? ;)

I know what you mean but it's not as pointless as you make it sound, not once you have a good collection of houses going on in the spare space.

Also taxes start at 2 gold, mine currently are worth 4 gold each house, it's all possible that my houses soon will be worth 6 or 8 gold each, someone at toucharcade said it increases over time.
 
Starting to hit endgame in terms of rewards, but still enjoying it.

I did, however, get my girlfriend horribly addicted to it. reefergirl

(as in saltwater, not marijuana)

Bam.

Then that makes sense.

Thanks for clarifying that. Now I understand the point to houses.


BTW - I just hit Level 11! This is my 2nd city since my first Lvl 9 is still buggy and I can't make more then 6 farms and I get a "Network error" each time I try :lol


I'm loving the game.. I now have a Pond, Stone Mine thing, School, Windmill (building), Dress Store, and Lumber Mill :D

Shop at my town peeps.. Add me and I will shop at yours!

Plus+: TurtleSnat



EDIT: DJLae has a beautiful town :(
