Total War Battles: KINGDOM Beta Version 0.3 Announcement

Lords, Ladies, Saint Protectors!

Total War Battles: KINGDOM is changing!

We will very shortly be rolling out an update that will bring Total War Battles: KINGDOM to Beta version 0.3. Since the Open Beta we’ve already seen the game grow and develop, but one thing that has remained constant is the fantastic feedback and suggestions we’ve received from you, the players.

This version update brings with it significant gameplay changes, many of which are in direct response to player feedback. Due to the nature of these changes, it will be necessary to reset account progress. Although this is something we’ve said wouldn’t happen again, we believe it’s worth it, in order to make the game as enjoyable as possible.

We want Total War Battles: KINGDOM to be the very best it can be. In order to achieve this we looked at lots of ideas from devs and players alike and the list we came up with meant we’d have to change the gameplay to an extent that simply could not be implemented without resetting player’s realms. This will be the last account reset.

The main changes this update brings are:

- The realm has been changed making it easier to navigate and making space management more fun and challenging.
- Timers have been reduced dramatically to allow for longer play sessions.
- The water management system has been overhauled to be more reactive, making it much easier to recover from flooding.
- All buildings now receive neighbour bonuses from other buildings, meaning you’ll want to optimise your towns differently to foster different playstyles.
- Quarry gameplay has been redesigned to make finding deposits more of a challenge, with much greater rewards when you do find them.
- And much, much more… an exhaustive changelist will be published once the new version is deployed.


We apologise for the inconvenience. We will return all Gold purchased to your account, and as a thank you for your continued support we’ll add an extra 20%. The Gold will be credited to your account once the new version is live. We’ll also publish a code for 250 Gold that can be redeemed by all players, regardless of whether you made an in-game purchase or not.

If you’d prefer to have money refunded to your Steam Wallet rather than your Gold returned, we’re happy to do this for 14 days after the release of 0.3 – simply contact customer support and they’ll be able to help you out https://support.sega.co.uk/hc/en-gb/categories/200307381

For additional info on refunds, and the update in general, please see the FAQs: http://wiki.totalwar.com/w/Total_War_Battles:_Kingdom_Beta_Version_0.3_Update_FAQ

In the meantime, as accounts will be reset and all purchased Gold returned, we’ve decided to suspend the Gold Shop temporarily leading up to the update. We’ll bring it back online with the deployment of version 0.3.

Many thanks and may your reign be long and prosperous!

The Kingdom Team

As a long time fan of the Total War series & having been a sucker for spending a fortune on Stronghold Kingdoms this seemed like the ideal middle ground to have a look at, how wrong could I be?

Installed.
Built a farm > 8s
Collect Wheat > 8hrs
Or Pay gold to complete instantly.

Uninstalled.

The end.

This game should've come out on April Fool's because this is a Complete Joke. This is my rant.

I've played for half and hour and I already feel like I never want to touch this again. The tutorial itself teaches you how to spend money.

Basically the game is designed around making the building as tedious as possible to entice the player to spend real money to skip absurd waiting times. I thought the '8 hours to collect wheat' must have been an exagguration but it's not. It's literally wait 8 hours or spend money.

The game isn't designed to be fun, it's designed to be tedious unless you spend money.

The battles are incredibly shallow. Three lanes of units move towards eachother without your control and you 'tap' them to 'charge' when prompted. You can tell archers to shoot (through a very cumbersome system that is clearly designed for your phone), and 'taunt' which is really the only way you can move between 'lanes'. It's utterly woeful.

Not to mention you can again, pay real money to buy better units and buff said units. You also need to spend money to heal units. And spend money to avoid more ridiculous waiting times to build more units.

Even on mobile phone, this game seems terrible. It's basically an excercise in tedium unless you pay money. They didn't want to make the game fun, rather they tried to make it as dull as possible unless you cough up money.

Avoid like the plague. This is an abomination of a game. Sega and Creative Assembly should be ashamed of themselves.

one word: Sh*t. 24 Minutes on this game was way too much for me. It is nothing like Total war and is made for the super casual mobile market. Oh yeah and there are micro stransactions! I love that sh*t
