Changelog 2.142
Dear Community,
On Wednesday, July 12th, Grepolis will be updated to version 2.142. As always there will be a short downtime while the update is applied.
Summary
- This version puts a big focus on comprehensibility of the different unit types in Grepolis. Therefore we implemented new unit icons to clarify which unit is strong against which counterpart and to highlight special abilities.
- Additionally we took care of hero slots after a restart and fixed some bugs along the way.
New Features and Changes
- New icons next to unit names were added to classify them.
- Each unit is classified as one of the following:
- Regular land unit
- Mythical land unit
- Regular naval unit
- Mythical naval unit
- Next to the unit classification, you can review the unit type:
- Offensive unit type
- Defensive unit type
- Hybrid (both)
- In addition to these characteristics, some units display icons for their special abilities:
- Flying unit
- Wall destruction (Catapult)
- Self Destruction (Fire Ship)
- Colonization (Colony Ship)
- These icons are also used in other places, e.g. in descriptions of advisor effects.
- Each unit is classified as one of the following:
- Existing icons for unit abilities were reworked to become more intuitive
- Damage types
- blunt weapon
- sharp weapon
- distance weapon
- ship
- Defense types
- defense blunt weapons
- defense sharp weapons
- defense distance weapons
- defense ships
- Damage types
- Upon resetting an account, slots will be available for all owned heroes. However, in order to unlock new slots, the required amount of culture points for all existing and the additional slot need to be achieved. Buying new hero slots is possible at any given moment.
Bugfixes
- Command overview - Tooltips for revolt icons were missing, leading to missing information in this overview.
- City foundation screen - Text for required culture points was misleading especially for the first colonization. Amount of required culture points was replaced by available city slots instead.
- City foundation screen - Starting a city foundation from towns in which gods with 2 mythical land units are worshipped could break the unit selection layout. Units now all appear in their respective lines.
- City foundation screen - Fixed an issue causing translations for islands without farming villages not to appear.
- Quest log - Remaining time until next island quest could not be displayed if more than 6 tutorial quests were open.
- City foundation screen - Displayed building levels in city preview were wrong.
We hope you enjoy the update and would love to hear any feedback you have here.
Best regards,
Your Grepolis Team
