Forest clearing 'manuals'

[Flailer]

So, wall manuals were a nice idea, but in practice, it takes way too many of them to accumulate to upgrade a single wall section.

But, this post isn't about that. Could a similar sort of system be implemented for clearing forests? Clearing forests is...so dull. And so long. 2 weeks currently and it gets up to 3 weeks I think.

Can you implement something like a 'forest manual' that you could collect through events, dock, chests, etc that once you obtain enough of them would allow you to redeem them all and clear a forest? Call them 'Forest Clearing Title' or 'Expansion Zoning Approval' or something.

Of course just reducing the time needed to clear a forest is also a good idea.

Now that you've released Bastions, which seem great by the way, there's a whole lot folks out there that need to clear a lot more forests...

This is a really great and timely idea! Thanks

 

[Saruman the White]

This is an excellent idea!

TinSoldier please would you have a look at this?

 

[oddin]

yep, nice suggestion mate

 

[Rassmasta]

Excellent idea. This would be awesome.

quote, very interesting idea, considering that I need to expand still probably 15 forests...now 3 ciz, 6 mln gold and two weeks. Too much. Forest clearance timing never changed since the beginning of the game

It did change, they introduced Moctezuma -30% expansion time.

Another leader with a similar skill (or a buff to the 30%) wouldn't hurt though, weeks of forest clearing isn't fun.

@{[Fresh]}Kratos : you are right never realized. The point is that it is at the third stage so it takes one month to get there and the first bonus is 6% that over 15days of clearing means more or less 10 hrs in 3 days. it does not worth any effort.
What I'm saying is that many buildings and stuff present at the time of the game launch such as garrison, forests or redbouts have a very long updgrading period. Many other buildings that came later have shorter upgrading periods. maybe it is just my impression, but i would make a reconciliation

 

[~Kratos~]

I don't disagree with you about the main point of interest here (forest times being too long), but I must correct you again:
Moctezuma is one of the shortest leaders and it absolutely does not take a month to get to the forests upgrade: you need 3 levels of the first 4 stages, which takes total of 4 days to upgrade. If you haven't done this yet and are about to clear forests, I highly suggest you do that first.

The most simple and real that can be done is to change the conditions of the discovery of the last level of research in DaVinci and Sejong. Replace 100% skills by 50% or 75% at least. You shouldn't expect more from Nexon. But this can be required

Oops, wrong topic..

white flag Kratos, you won...LOL
