Version 7.1

  • Dear community,

    we will update all the UK server to the version 7.1 today.

    With this update, all servers will have the latest content update available.

    The update will happen from 15:00 CET on (it might happen slightly later, depending on the last bugfixes and check ups).


    We will post the exact update timestamp as soon as it is available.


    Your OGame Team

  • Why with this short notice? And why with this little information about the update? The class descriptions are not enough :(

    -- You've met a terrible fate haven't you

  • Damn... Collector or Discoverer??? Just what the hell will I choose? I need more info on Discoverer!!!

    Actually ALL OF US need some formulas and explanations of such.

  • You can choose not to choose a class :)


    so other players can provide their input.


    my personal suggestion would be the collector. More production always. And 1,5 more production with crawlers. I am not able to do a lot of expedition runs during the week. This provides a constant stream of extra income

  • The biggest problem here is that only 2% of players check the forum and the others that dont, have 0% chances to know how good or bad a class is... from the description it is basically impossible to know how good is a discoverer, or whats the limit of crawlers, etc... ... i find it so unprofessional..

    -- You've met a terrible fate haven't you

  • First of all, it is essential that we are told how all bonusses will have their affect. Do existing planets count for the Discoverer bonus size for instance, or not? If not, most players will probably not choose it...

    In terms of formula's, I haven't been able to figure out much basic data yet. What I did find is that with the Discoverer you can find a decent amount of ships of any kind, which is quite nice.


    For what it is worth, in Leda it seems at least that all classes are at least viable.


    I will await the response from the team now.

  • i thought that the information about the classes was vague because the formulas and features were changing on a daily base and were were far away from getting the new version.


    since everything seems to come earlier than expected i would recommand not chosing any classes right now, until we know more! i come from the german community and most of the guys there were undecided whether the collector or explorer class (the general is quite underpowerd in comparison) suited them better.


    the last nerfs to the explorer class were so severe that RIGHT NOW i would say the majority tends to pick the collector class. but again: better be patient. maybe there are mayor changes to the classes incoming and i wouldn't bet on getting a free class change in case that you are unhappy with your decision.

    best regards
    -Peace

  • But what do we do? we wait 1 week? If they did not clarify much in months what will they do now? I am kind of sad that this is done like this. By just spending 1 more day they could release a well formatted document explaining each change in detail. Then let us read that and give us 1 week before the server gets updated.

    -- You've met a terrible fate haven't you

  • it would totally agree that this is kind of a joke. btw: as far as i can tell the .org comm is the only one getting a widespread rollout of the MCU. i still hope some dude pushed a wrong button and the message was unintentional.

    to answear one question:

    - the explorer class feature to get bigger planets doesn't change the size of existing planets. in case you change class after colonizing a big planet the size will remain the same.

    beware of a few current bugs:

    - the ressource production may stop or be way less than before
    - AGR might cause problems (an MCU updated version is afaik currently not available)
    - fleet slots may be occupied even if you have nothing in flight

    Edited 2 times, last by The Peace ().

  • Perfectly ready to be released in all servers

  • - the explorer class feature to get bigger planets doesn't change the size of existing planets. in case you change class after colonizing a big planet the size will remain the same.


    So the main advantage of the class is useless in old universes is what you are saying?

  • piink

    seriously, can yas not wait till you have a smooth running version of this!


    in Janice i gotta connect back in several times per day.

    my overview fleet information doesnt load... have to click that at least 3 times

    fleet speed bar you can click on one then move and it goes to a different %

    half your FS deut cost is left behind, giving a good clue of where ya went,

    loading screens is slow!

    AGR doesnt work although not your fault.


    Can you fix these before messing around with everyones head.


    its a great update, just implement it properly please

  • I for one am happy about this

    really happy

    and i liked the ingame message too!

    thats probably more important than this



    hopefully it all goes smoothly

  • As much as I want to see the MCO in full swing on every server, this feels a tad too soon.


    Can we at least consider an attack ban until all major issues have been resolved?

    At least an attack ban for a start right? With the announcement time and all?


    Some more news about full implementation would be nice to I guess...
