What should we expect to change since BETA? obviously information is limited right now on exactly what they've changed or plans to change moving forward and the announcement for TTS (technical test server) was pretty vague on exactly what changes they are working on as they're still tweaking those things they've added to the test im sure. So what changes do you think they've done to improve Settlers since the BETA? They've stated they've worked heavily on the Economy side of things and improved rush mechanics, so im thinking that its harder to build up your armies now and requires a lot work in your economy before you start sending out tons of units everywhere but really outside of that, we just don't know exactly what changes have been made. I have to be honest I'm quite excited, I thought this game was cancelled if I'm being honest, even though the devs never stated that, just a bad assumption on my part I guess.

I've seen a lot of people over the beta test wanting the game to return to its more 2019 version, with upgradable buildings, walls, making food actually count for something, more stuff in the supply chain etc... Makes me wonder if they've just gone ahead and done this, as a lover of the franchise since the old AMIGA days, I can safely say that economy and building up your city was priority rather then military units and I think if they focus on that side of things more, we really could have a new Settlers game we all have been craving for. I think if we can kinda bring back a lot of the economy options the older tittles gave us (things like Forester / Slaughter House / Weapon smithy / Tool Maker / Water Well) along with upgradable buildings to make the economy a lot more deep and meaningful. One of the best parts of a Settlers game is watching all the lil peeps work all the jobs in the city with all their own individual animations as they make stuff, the more stuff there is, the more immersive the gaming experience will be. Mining ore shouldn't be infinite either, I feel the mining portion of the game does need to be redon a bit, having lots of spots to mine but having them run out forces you to strategize over the world map against other factions for mining spots, and please make them on mountains heh..

Obviously units need some work too, and this was also mentioned in the TTS Announcement so hopefully they've worked on Engineers being everything! adding geologists and changing the siege weapons from being animals to fire magic missiles which was not good lol I am not keen on having Magic at all in the game myself but if it has to be in there I would only really like Hero units only to really use magic..... I actually would be happy with just the old Settlers 1 units where there was no ranged units of any kind at all and all combat was just hand-to-hand but I know im in the minority here for that. I want combat in the game, but I don't want it to be the main focus, and having a ton of units kinda makes the combat take over the core aspect of Settlers. Hopefully they do more about having the different forts and towers that expand your boarder rather then just having to manually select on an engineer to where you want to increase it to...

anyways just some quick initial thoughts now that the game is progressing still....

Hi All,
I’ve just watched again the trailer with the gameplay that was published is September 2019.
It looks like the game was far more advanced then conpared to what has been published…
Graphics didn’t change much, we can see some heroes or possibility to upgrade the buildings.

Does it mean that the just cut so many things out to make it more simple or will the be now selling those parts as paid DLC?

What did they do with this game over last 3.5 years?

Bonjour / Bonsoir,

Ma question est très courte et très simple :

Une nouvelle phase béta est prévu ? 🙂

Merci pour ce travail, de remettre un jeu de notre enfance au gout du jour, merci encore 🙂

Bon Travail ! 🙂
