It's just the different tiers like settlers, artisans, engineers etc. tiers of advancement.


Anyway, I think the main issue with this game, is the size.

1) Islands are still rather small, but I can live with that. It adds to the challenge I guess.

2) The space between the islands is a joke. You can block entire passages with harbour cannons, making it very "griefy".

3)and/or cannons have way too long range, considering the distance between islands.

So either space out islands more or reduce range of ALL cannons.

Ya my 4 ports and hence trade routes are defended with long and medium canons which deter's attack fleets of 5-6 ships fairly easily. Its surprising how quickly the game can turn on you, i.e 100K +1500 to +100 and all funds gone.

Thats because you small needs problems (ie a short term shortage), best is to immediatly click on a town center thingy and see whats missing and compensate asap

That's very easy to do, especially since you can simply buy Steel beams, before ever being able to make them yourselves, lol.

Imho that's an oversight.

It's also a lot easier to keep settlers happy^^


Anyway, as I said, it would be more fun, if there was some actual space between the islands, IMHO.

Not really, i played it a fair bit to see how much i can supply and if you treat it as a non proper Anno its actually quite nice. Has some good mechanics.

I don't think anyone bought the game, because of that.

Also, buying Ubi games on steam is not the best idea anyway, lol.

But yeah, I think the open beta helped a lot of Anno veterans to pull the trigger (it did for me) on buying the game.

Oh, you are mistaken. I am daily on reddit and other forums involving around Anno and there are quite a few resilliant people who buy stuff only on steam and so they did with anno 1800. there are also some who missed out and now are mad cause they have to wait a year before it comes back to steam since they dont want any other launchers (Bad epic and also uplay) and you can even tell them that uplay is needed no matter what they simply refuse with bs excuses.

So yeah, they exist and they are sometimes dumb as fuck.

But you are right when buying games that steam isnt always the best choice, i for example always buy the corrosponding game on the publishers platform since i dont want to have steam down and not be able to play my uplay game then. Makes no sense to be depentant on 2 services (DRM) when only one is needed.

Cheapest I can find is €55 on allkeyshop. Even with discounts paying for this over €30 I think it's too much. Granted I only played a couple of hours with beta but it didn't give me the impression it's worth it. Imo.

Did you not follow anything said here and in other ubi game threads? You can get ALL of their new games for roughly 20€... on the Russian Ubistore.

Use VPN, buy, done.

Don't need vpn to run the games, no geo restrictions and all the languages available.

Yep I did but I am afraid on what might happen if I get caught. It's a risk and so I'm worried I'll burn my account.

They wont ban you, worst that may happen is that they remove the game from the lib but even that i doubt will happen. Some Money is still better than no Money, which means they rather take your cheap ass as a customer instead of no customer at all.

But yeah, do what you like. No Offense

Is there any risk to doing this? I also refuse to pay £50 for a game worth £15 to£24 tops.
