The Battle for the North Game Team would like to first thank all the participants in yesterday's "Live Chat with the Devs" Event! We had fun and learned a lot from your invaluable feedback.
In case you missed the event or would like to review what went on, here is a synopsis of the Chat (Dev Comments in Gold):
I like this game a lot. It's awesome that I get to carry it around and never miss a build or a fight. Why can't we link our Facebook profiles from the web-game to this game?
This is an extension of the Kingdoms of Camelot franchise so it is a different game with an improved combat engine and game-play features.
One thing I miss from the FB version is having a Friends list. Are you guys thinking of implementing one in-game?
Gotcha! We have heard this from several players and will look to include this in the next few updates.
I want to know how many and which Troops are needed to Attack effectively in KBN. Can you please post some info on Battle Mechanics in the Forums?
Detailed battle mechanics will be posted in the forums soon (maybe an infographic?)
Why are we only allowed one VC per Alliance? In KofC and other Kabam games Alliances are allowed 2!
Gotcha! We will work to include this in one of the next few updates.
I accidentally blocked someone from communications. Is there a way to unblock someone?
The best way to unblock is to contact our player experience reps, they can help you unblock them. We will be adding an unblock function to chat soon.
Sometimes I send out an ill-advised March. Do you have any plans of adding a "Recall March" feature in the future?
No plans of doing this at the moment, but if we get enough feedback that this is a feature that players want, we will consider including it in the future.
I would love to know if plans are in the making to allow building more than one structure at a time.
Yes there are, but it may not another build queue, per se. We will continue to release new gameplay mechanics as the game matures. Please stay tuned.
I'm wondering if you'll introduce a auto-raid timer that resets every once in a while like the web-game Version.
Not at the moment, this is a feature designed for a mature game where players manage resource for multiple cities.
We see the time (needed to complete the March) once an Attack is sent, how about an estimate of this time before sending?
Time of march is relative to the distance of the destination on the map. We will consider adding this.
Gems are expensive! When are you guys having a Sale? It's the holidays for pete's sake!
We will be holding some sales for items in the shop during the holidays. We will also be introducing new price points with better value when you buy in bulk.
My 5,000 Might army should have pwned a level 4 Wild. Why do I still lose Troops?
Detailed battle mechanics will be posted in the forums soon. There will always be some level of troop loss in this combat engine.
I use the Bookmarks feature a lot but notice a few things (like Might, Player/Alliance Name) aren't on the initial Bookmark page. When can we have an improved Bookmark system?
The bookmarks currently do not update when a player changes player or city name. This is something we would like to fix in the future.
Player Rankings AKA Leader Boards: when can we haz dem?
In-game leaderboards is on the product roadmap.
The Dev Team has a HUGE backlog of improvements and new features that we would like to add to the game, but we also want you to be able to enjoy the game now! Stay tuned, we're committed to continually improving your experience!
Thank you again for participating and we will see you soon in the Northern Territories of Camelot!!!
