Halloween Event

28 Oct 2016, 19:46

Dear Generals,

The spooky season has begun. To pay tribute to the spirit Halloween, we

have slightly modified the resource icons in the game and darkened the

fog of the war. We hope this puts you in the right mood.

The old graphics will return of course after Halloween Monday. If you do

not like them, you don't have to wait for long. Take it easy!

On Monday there will be a small contest, stay tuned.

Can we have a treat and get Paratroopers?

I like these little things

Shows that Bytro want to keep things fun

I also prefer the fog of war as is now, maybe even keep it that way in the future?

I love competitions too

I was wondering why i was hunting down spiders and green slime for a minute there. Scared the hell out of me, i thought the game was messed with for a minute.

Don't forget the 30 thousand black cats in order to make a nuke

I wouldnt mind an uber dark shadow of war. More mystery to the opposing nation kind of thing.

Can we get an entirely black map next Halloween? The game will be unplayable, but it will be super spooky.

Yes I would agree with Tankbuster, We need Paratroopers in this game.

We already got Crates, what could be more spooky than stuff we didn't ever want?

Stuff that we *do* want, scared the devs might be coding high. Who the hell listens to their consumer base?

They are most common in provinces with a high concentration of old ladies.

Yes, Can we please make the darkened FOG of WAR a Permanent feature!!! I would love that....and I like the crates, although i think they shouldn't just be for a new extra lvl of troops.... u shud be able to unlock the next immediate level of troop once u've collected all the neccessary blueprints without resources being used......becuase...at least from my understanding...once u collect all the blueprints you have to wait til u unlock until u reach lvl 6 troops and then use the blue print....to unlock lvl 7 troops

Mohab, you don't see any problem with some players having L7 "elite" units on Day 1 of a game, while other players have L1 units?

Actually that is not how it works. After unlocking an elite unit you still have to research it in the game, and the research becomes available after the last regular unit level.

We are glad that you guys like the darker fog of war. Because of that we will make a compromise and set the tone in the middle between the old value and the new value. That way overview should be better while not being too dark.
