Greetings Kings and Queens,
With the next update, changes will be made to points given by some buildings. The reason for this is a flaw in the old points calculation formula, which has caused bigger buildings to be disadvantaged when calculating points. There will also be some changes made to supply costs in Industrial Age residential buildings, as outlined below.
We would like to make you aware of these planned changes now, so you are able to think ahead and prepare for the change. Please do not be too alarmed - most of the changes are positive, with the exception being decorations, some of which will have their points lowered, and we believe that these changes will have a positive impact on the game.
With the update, points will not be recalculated, but any new buildings will have the new points value. If you remove a building, the new points value will also be removed, so please be aware of this if you are planning to make significant changes in your city.
Please see the spoilers below for detailed information.
We would like thank you for your continued support of Forge of Empires, and look forward to seeing you ingame.
Sincerely,
The Beta Team
