Forge of Empires - Winter Event 2024 BETA - Overview

[@Merlin_From_Shrek_3]

Christmas is here

[@FunkyTruester]

So the Winter event is a reskinned version of the Summer event, good to know. Some of the buildings do look crazy powerful, so that's exciting. I think it's funny that Inno's alluding to a Christmas favorite movie in Die Hard with their own version of the Nakatomi Tower/Plaza, that's hilarious. Also, I also liked the sleigh builder when it originally came out, because it was one of the most efficient goods-producing buildings (for the space) at the time. The upgrade would be a huge improvement, but I still think the Pumpkins are slightly better at only 2x2 vs. the 2x3 of the SB.

Yes, this year’s Winter Event does have some familiar elements but definitely brings fresh rewards and powerful buildings! 🎉 And good catch, the Yukitomo Tower does seem like a nod to that classic movie! 🎬. The Sleigh Builder has its charm, but I know it’s not a favorite for everyone. 🎁❄️ Let’s see if the upgrade gives it the boost it needs to stand out a bit more this time around! 🎄

AlI want for christmas is a fully leveled chocalatery 😅

[@PixelVibes63]

A fully developed chocolaterie! 🍫🎄 And maybe some elves to maintain it! What do you think? 😂

IT'S NOT TOO EARLY FOR SANTA!!!

[@PixelVibes63]

Absolutely not! Santa’s on the clock, and so is the holiday joy! 🎅⏰🎄✨

[@CinnamonRose99]

I hope they correct the spelling. Calendar.

[@markymark13ification]

Are you kidding saying sleighbuilder offering a combined 30 red att def in gbg isn't worth it for the size?

[@PixelVibes63]

For so much boost in a compact package, it’s like making room for a sled 🛷 and a reindeer herder! 🦌💪😄

[@matgreen8605]

Does the yukitoma tower have a German baddie falling from it?

[@PixelVibes63]

Perhaps we should avoid comments like this. They are not appropriate here.

i really hope the piggy bank isnt 9k diamonds ...

[@PixelVibes63]

Haha, right? If it is, I hope it at least comes with a lifetime supply of bacon! 🐷💎 But seriously, let’s hope it’s something a bit more manageable! 🤞😊

[@eggboi-hc2wg]

We hope, but we know better

[@smary9591]

i'm still hoping in building that produce next era random units

[@PixelVibes63]

That would be a fantastic feature if the developers implemented it! However, I’m skeptical since great ideas often don’t make it into the game. A building that produces random units from the next era would add a lot of strategy, but I guess we'll have to wait and see if they consider it in future updates.

Why must INNO always assume everyone who plays the game celebrates Christmas and wants Christmas themed items in their city? You have players of all stripes INNO, very discriminatory. If its a Winter event, make it about winter, not only one holiday or religion.

[@Kokumajutsushi]

The entire entity of the West, and how we even learned to read early on, is premised on the Bible - On Christianity. This is the majority White people West. White people are religiously by majority Christian, and even non-religiously Christian people celebrate Christmas because it is a socio-cultural phenomenon, due to our premising on Christianity as the West. This is not ''discriminatory''. This is our land, our people, our culture, and our games, inherently. If you do not like that, and wish to be a little bitch about it, you can go & F off to elsewhere, 'Diane'.

[@PixelVibes63]

I understand your point, and inclusivity is indeed important. Many holiday symbols have evolved over time and are now more cultural and commercial than religious. It might actually enhance the experience if winter events focused on universal seasonal themes, celebrating the beauty of winter, community, and nature, making it enjoyable and welcoming for everyone. Thank you for the feedback

Shalom! I'd like to apply for a loan.

@@PixelVibes63 Cultural Settlements would like a word with you: Egyptian settlement, Aztec settlement, Feudal Japan settlement, etc. Spring Events being about Japanese springtime and the blooming of Sakura trees (Cherryblossom Trees) would like a word with you. Christianity or any other part of White people's culture isn't the only culture in Forge of Empires whatsoever. That is utter non-sense, and it is obversable reality that it is so.
