The cold phoenix is not good for playing and advancing our cities in elvenar. No one growing, wants mana or sentients every 48 hours when all other existing building options, offer better. Personal preference maybe, but not logical. Pretty? sure. But facts are facts. There is unequivocal proof this building is not an asset to playing and advancing in the game of elvenar. Are we all advancing? No. Are we all playing the game as it was intended. No.
You are better off placing anything you can collect sooner than 24hrs in your city. Including another sentient or bath of pleasures for mana/pop, lower chapters are always better off with a levelled EE, ToS or workshop. Tier 3 goods as well, never has paid enough to be a good special event building bonus. These chapters 1-8, have grossly inadequate bonuses that have been pointed out often and never addressed. Why do these chapters get left with feeble bonuses? ( re, every special event building ) why has the phoenix set not resurfaced? This would be a glorious contribution to all new players in chapters 1-8. Make these craftable for them.
Having a second 2019 bird at level 5 or 6 will be far greater use to All player chapters and stratedy. Whether its a 2nd fire phoenix or, another type plus fire or any other combination of the three your city does well with, cold phoenix does not provide equally for its space.
When players come on here and say we should just accept and like a building, that teaches no one the real workings of the game. Everyone should be able to say what they like or dont like about it, and if it doesnt apply to you personally, stop being offended. Be open minded that players dont like what you like and play different. It helps if you support your opinions with why it works, but telling someone to be more positive doesnt prove your way is better or that there is any better way. Just tells us you cant accept someone else's opinion or be open minded to their pleas for change. Remember players are talking to the game, the forum as a whole, not you personally.
If someone is upset it should be a learning experience! Try to see, feel and understand what they share! Dont reject their issues because you never had that problem. Worst teaching method ever. be empathetic or relate or learn from other players frustrations. We are not all same chapter, same growth, same cities. But the game should be fun and playable by everyone. And as far as i am concerned, voicing your frustration is a reason why we have a forum, for positive changes can not be made if we tell everyone to be silent.
if you dont agree, i will never be hurt or take it personally. I will also, never ask you to be silently frustrated, that is wrong. If you feel enraged by a comment - step back and take a moment, no one is asking You to fix the problem, but accept there is one for that player, for their situation, their chapter, their play style.
we all deserve a reward that in at least 1 way, earns a spot in our advancing city. And if we can give a reason why its not a good choice, everyone should be aware and be saved placing a bad building.
More effort and higher bonuses generally go into Grand Prize Reward buildings, this cold phoenix is extremely low in reward bonuses. Its value is too low to place. Events generally take time, space and strategy to complete, if dailies and grand prize offer no incentives to advance with, players lose interest and move on from elvenar. Not every player feels the events are worth leaving over but again, it's a very real reason to leave. Some quests have been repaired, reward buildings are adequate, new buildings are pretty so this satisfies some players but not all of them. Fixing the grand prize to a similar version of its phoenix brothers would be much more interesting, but i believe what players are actually asking for is at least equal value to previous event buildings of its size. That is a very fair and encouragable fix to make, otherwise why are we not just winning half the evolutions for the old phoenixes? Why bother with a new building and craftable recipes?
I have always been disappointed to play one more elvenar event without being equally able to participate. That goes for whether the quests are too time consuming, require too much supplies or goods on collect (still insanely high for all chapters), take days to complete, no worthy buildings whether its bonuses are low for chapter or not replacing older pre dated buildings, and i cant imagine being tech locked without any wonders to donate to on mobile. All these reasons to me, make elvenar a pass next time an event comes up. If even half the newer players are giving up because they are prevented from participating in their first event, its much easier to find a game these days, that include them. Low chapter tutorials are not informative enough to build boosted only, advance normally and they dont make spell fragments easily enough before unlocking the spire with the reduction of winnable daily rewards on events. Please explore being a chapter 1-8 player again on a different world in your server if you dont understand now, you will.
I have played every event since the inception of events and they are not bridging gaps, but creating new ones which compound frustration and deplete attitude and attention to the game affecting player retention. I recommend a game to take example from that includes all levels equally, its not advertising, its not the same genre of game but has events that equally perform and reward for all levels. Their current event lasts 30 days and any level player is applied fairly to the event. I dont know if inno wants other games mentioned by name here so if a moderator is interested in hearing about it please message me.
