Quote from Nostroma: “So I guess with all the negative feedback Bytro will be going ahead with this anyway. Why bother getting feedback? ” Because it's not a binary thing where the update either gets released or scrapped. We can both deploy this update and implement feedback from the community before we do. That's also why we decided to hold the update back on beta for another 2 weeks, so we can do further polishing and discuss how to proceed from here.

Quote from Phillip Bosley: “What would nukes be made of? You can’t realistically make a nuke out of food, metal, and oil. ” Sounds like you are not trying hard enough... Serious answer: we are favoring a gameplay > realism approach at the moment. That's also why we added the Pan-Asian doctrine to the Europe map. The doctrine name/art style is more of a hinderance in that case, and ideally we rename it on the Europe map at some point. We just prioritized having the variety of a fourth docrine tha…

Because we need detailed descriptions of the changes to plan our matches, so if it would be possible at all, could you release new spreadsheets with the relevant data (unit costs, research costs, building costs, production rates for various maps, etc etc) BEFORE the new release is pushed down our throat on some tuesday without a…

Quote from Komrade Khrushchev: “Quote from Geden: “Quote from Komrade Khrushchev: “@Geden. Should we call this Call of War 3.0? ” Haha, maybe this will stick, who knows I think it was freezy who coined that term initially (CoW 1.0 etc.), so i'll wait for his opinion on the matter ” I see. Do you know when this will go live in non-beta games? ” We don't have a release date set in stone yet, i'd expect within the next 1-3 weeks but don't hold me to that should the date change.

Quote from Erecon: “What about the legal issues? Someone properly bought some of those "payday operations" with booster stuff that contains rare or goods. What about the ad boosters that gives goods ? will all these boosters be converted, or will they be deleted? ” They will be converted, i don't have the specific details for that yet though. As with past updates where we had to convert booster cards to a new variant we'll make sure that no value is being lost.

Thank you for the long, and well-written post! Maybe i can provide some more context for some of the points and questions you've raised here. Quote from Lord Crayfish: “If you wanted to spice up the economic situation on the "balanced" maps by making one more plentiful, you could do what you did in 1.0 and have four cities with one deficit per country. Possibly make there be more oil in the Middle East, more food in Eastern Europe or N. America, more rares in Central Asia, etc. From what little …

Quote from MarioLazzaratti: “Bytro, please don’t go forward with this change. Don’t you realize this would make all existing strategies and gameplay tactics useless? ” That is somewhat the point! We do want to offer new experiences to our players. I empathize though that in recent months the change of pace has been very high, especially compared to our previous pace when it came to releasing gameplay/balance updates.

1727099684_news_images_31861.png We will be making important changes to the resource system in an upcoming update. Two resources - Goods and Rare Materials - will be removed from the game. These resources, previously acquired by conquering provinces, will no longer be part of your war economy. With fewer resources available, competition over the remaining three - Fuel, Food, and Steel - will become more intense, leading to heightened conflict and more meaningful economic choices. By making resou…

Quote from Nostroma: “Pfah!!!! Of course....Cut back on the one thing that helped free players try to make up a little distance to the paying players. Money bags cried foul... War bonds caused havoc in the early stages of the game?....really?...And gold didn't? Oh...and as a reward for pointing out this flagrant war bond fiasco, all you money payers get 20% extra war bonds production....that the free players will not get. Bias or what.

We have been very busy collecting your feedback for the new War Bonds, and the message could not have been clearer.

Quote from 6thDragon: “If I'm reading this correctly, these new war bonds will not carry over from map to map. Will they be allowed for use on skill-based maps that are Bytro approved to be gold-free? ” The War Bonds function like other resources. So they will be allowed on tournament maps. Same gold rules as before though, so you won't be able to use gold to stock them up on these maps.
