Marco Polo's Entrance Not So Grand

[LordAnubis]

Changing Marco's entrance to be grand is actually quite annoying. Now everytime you log in the game force focuses on Marco. Terrible idea.

 

[Motaz Tarek]

yea it's probably the dumbest idea they came up with, not a single reason to do it

 

[Persia]

so we can spend 300 crowns on one siege unit, why else?

 

[The Regulator]

It annoys the crap out of me

 

[Motaz Tarek]

Persia autofocusing the camera on polo each time i log in the game won't force me to spend lol

 

[Persia]

I'm aware, I was kidding lol

 

[jmac99]

yep, doing it once would have been fine, but every single time gets old quick

 

[Quovatis]

Agree. Every single time you log in is overkill. Doing it the first time you log in after he arrives is fine, but after that, it's super annoying.

 

[Navalis]

I too find this to be overkill. Very frustrating to say the least.

 

[melheor]

Having Marco appear in the events menu is enough, teleporting to him is indeed annoying. Honestly, I don't understand why this feature was added to begin with. People complain about airplane train time, people complain about excess donation troops, about last tactic not training, about crashes, about units attacking walls. No one ever complained about not being able to find Marco Polo. Which problem was this supposed to solve?

Yes, makes you wonder what else they could've fixed if they hadn't wasted their time with this.
Nexon, there are other things worth prioritising, this wasn't one of them!

 

[_Flash_]

Can this 'feature' be rolled back or disabled, please?

You can probably draw attention to it in several other ways - maybe, continue to have some fireworks kind of effect around Marco Polo.
Or, add a tab to suggested upgrades to suggest trading with Marco Polo.
Or, have the town center glow or have some other visual effect (to indicate that Marco Polo is in town), which when clicked, can provide a button (maybe, next to the Info button) to navigate to Marco Polo's trades.

Or, better yet, make the trades more attractive. If a product is good, it wouldn't require too much selling - it would sell itself! People would do more trades with Marco Polo by themselves, without this 'grand entrance' effect if the trades are attractive.

Anything but the current 'grand entrance' please!

 

[Quovatis]

Force focus, a marco icon on the screen, and a marco tab on the announcements is a bit overkill. The force focus is the worst, especially since it happens every time you log in, not just the first time.

 

[kloputzer]

It's the stupidest thing the devolopers ever came up with. So damn intrusive and annoying.

 

[yemen]

Please take this force zoom away, no one wants it.

 

[Manifesto]

Please take this force zoom away, no one wants it.

Surely the people who want to spend 400 crowns for a Winter chest want it?
400 crowns for a power plant or a flamethrower army or even cider is money well spent, yes?

 

[LordAnubis]

Yes it is! I spend 1000 crowns in a heart beat for that cider considering it costs just a few to ripen a tree.

 

[Quovatis]

I stupidly bought a winter chest. Got 1 shinobi and 5 metal. What a ripoff, but that was my mistake.

 

[Mcnasty]

I want to smash my phone every time I log in because of this. It drives my crazy. I can see the meeting they had for this. “ hey so I got this idea to drive everyone that plays completely crazy” really that’s amazing let’s do it

 

[LordAnubis]

it screams "WE NEED MONEY BAD!" and isn't needed especially since his photo appears where the notifications go causing the notifications to be bumped to the side.

wasn't the whole point of a consolidated notice window to have everything under one button? hmmmm
