XP for road upgrade (IA) is insane! +8 levels!

[almadillo]

I'm industrial age.
Just upgraded roads to lvl 7.
I was not really watching ... but it looks like I got 1200+ xp per road segment ...

I jumped from lvl138 to lvl146 with just the road upgrade!

This seems quite excessive ... my thoughts are that the road upgrade should not be an 8 level increase.

Anyone else see this?

If I were you I would give it back - this minute!!

This always has been, and probably always will be the thing... I don't see much of a problem.
But I noticed my global road update not being worth several levels.

Surprised the OP didn't notice it earlier, it's always done this from the Iron Age, instead of 1200 for the entire road network, it's 1200 per piece. Fixed it Global though, only a measly 27XP per piece for some cartoon grey horror.

Haven't really taken a look before upgrading... but now it makes sense I didn't jump several levels... thanks

Thank you.

That explains it ... still not right though.

The only time it might be a problem is if you glance at the opponents XP before attacking, there are some beefy bases out there with medieval roads, so instead of being Level 150 they are still Level 109 and you wonder why the battle fell silent halfway through.

 

[almadillo]

I'll probably not update roads again ... wish I had caught this earlier ....

Well that is something I had not payed all that close attention to. Duely noted sir!
