Polytopia: Patch of the Ocean Update

[@TheSeljuks]

It would be great if we could make our own Polytopia map.

[@polychampions]

Yes. One of the most popular requests from players is to have the ability to make custom maps

[@michealstahl2351]

It would also be good to have the option to add a fog of war that would hide troop movements when other units not present.

[@nemex_old_channel]

this is a certified patch of the ocean moment

[@noname-xs9nm]

Soon man, soon

[@alpal4245]

I'm curious if there will ever be a river type map released where theres very little deep ocean tiles and a lot of single tile wide rivers. Idk if it'd play well or not but it seems well suited for bridges

[@polychampions]

I know the Continents map is supposed to include some "rivers" which is one tile of water separating the land. That's when Midjiwan is thinking players could use bridges

[@shthppxs3581]

I love this patch. Everything makes so much sense now. I like burn forest fitting in construction branch, I love that it’s balanced because burn forest costs 5*. I love the game.

[@polychampions]

Thanks. That's great that you are enjoying the changes

[@michakoodziej5741]

Give me my aquafarms and the old look of the rammer back! 😭😭😭

[@polychampions]

I miss aqua farms too

[@mysticcr8tor773]

I do also think it's funny that people don't think burning the forest is worth much since it's 5 stars, but it's the same as v98 ports- 10 stars for 2 population. Of course ports gave you access to the water and can level up the capital but the burn forest feature allows for some high level windmills and later down the road- high level markets

[@polychampions]

True. Old ports cost 10 and gave you 2 population. Remember, old ports were the way to profit from custom houses too

[@DefinitelyNotProcrastinating]

Where Cymanti nerf?

[@polychampions]

The devs said that their next project will be a special tribe rework. Hard to say when that will happen though

[@Randomness5-u4l]

Cool

[@wuskevo]

I wonder if 5 stars is high enough to balance the potential of farm spam

[@polychampions]

Chivalry is a t3 tech, expensive, and then 10 ⭐️ for 2 pops. It's a long way to get those extra pops. We think it will be pretty balanced with those costs.

[@SSJudgeXiii]

As a new player, which tribe is best first purchase?

[@MathieuDucruet-wo5tn]

Cymanti tribe or Polaris. Zebasi

[@polychampions]

I recommend Kickoo if you like water maps and naval stuff. Otherwise, Zebasi is a good choice as they are also strong tribe with easy access to giants

[@SSJudgeXiii]

@@polychampions thank you for the response. I am looking for best multiplayer tribes but need to purchase at least one tribe to start. I am not sure if all multiplayer maps are random, water, or preference based. I have been playing versus the computer and want to expand to multiplayer.

[@daddygamer5262]

Rammers are too OP

[@polychampions]

Rammers are still very strong, but the loss of aqua crops is a bit of a nerf, in a roundabout way

[@speedy-1299]

great video

[@polychampions]

Thank you 😊

[@zigoter2185]

2:33 It *USED* to cost 5 stars to burn a forest, but it since been reduced to just 2 stars. So total cost of a burned-forest farm is actually 7 stars, which is considerably less, that 10 and also is quite reasonable even in the mid game if you're in a solid position to invest in marco and not in an immediate danger.

[@polychampions]

Burn forest costs 5 stars now

[@Golemcool]

Is the 5 stars burn forest intended?

[@kelzangtobgyel3887]

it is 2 stars to burn am I wrong?

[@Golemcool]

@@kelzangtobgyel3887The new update changed it to 5 stars

[@polychampions]

They raised the cost to 5 ⭐️

[@jirojhasuo2ndgrandcompany745]

hell yea

[@polychampions]

Fun times

[@rootbeerfloathaspop3301]

Since when does burn forest cost 5 stars?

[@paleoprodigy1044]

since now

[@polychampions]

Exactly, since now 😄

[@DanielYuan-cf2og]

noooooooooooo the rammersss

[@polychampions]

Don't tell the rammer mafia

[@jessehol2721]

Bombers should have a range of 2 IMO this makes them riskier to use and easier to counter. If they kept the 4 attack it'd be a high risk high reward unit

[@polychampions]

Yes. Bombers are still very strong. The range and splash damage are powerful

[@tomchantler4866]

So is Polaris a T0 now?

[@sivetcr]

no, they have a special tech for it called ice fishing, which replaces aquaculure. and it will stay there

[@tomchantler4866]

@@sivetcr ah thx that’s good to know

[@sivetcr]

@@tomchantler4866 i'm glad to help :)

[@polychampions]

Nope, they are still not a t0 tribe

[@tomchantler4866]

@@polychampions good to know. Thx for the info 👍

[@mysticcr8tor773]

first like and comment :D

[@polychampions]

Yup, that counts 😎

[@countryballsandstuff447]

As a beta user, this is useless!

[@polychampions]

Yeah, this patch is exactly the same as what was in the beta

[@l.v1473]

Theyre gonna nerf everything making the game tacticless

[@polychampions]

I always say I would prefer the devs improve the weaker tribes rather than nerf what is special about the strong ones
