    Hello commanders!


    Today, Friday October 20, we will have a hotfix maintenance to tackle some issues with fleet queues and resource production reported recently:

    - at 10:00 CEST OGame.org Undae

    - at 13:00 CEST all the live universes


    Note: Please be aware that during the maintenance several logouts from the game are expected. It is known that it happens and we are already working on a solution for it.

    Hello commanders!


    On Wednesday, June 14 at 09:45 CEST, we will start update live rounds with version 10.0.0.
    We will split the 10.0.0 release in several groups. For now, the Group 1 considers only a few communities and servers (other groups and dates will be communicated later).


    The OGame.us universes that will be updated to version 10.0.0 are:

    - Himalia *


    * Non-LF universe updated to Version 10.0.0. Please note that Lifeforms is not enable with the update.




    :arrow: HT access will be activated for the maintenance and with effect since the beginning (09:45 CEST).


    Attack block will be active on the affected rounds:
    - Start: 13.06.2023 17:00 CEST
    - End: 14.06.2023 17:00 CEST


    :attention: Note 1: This is a version update, doesn't affect anything regarding Lifeforms enable or disable.

    :attention: Note 2: The universes that are update with version 10 will have the inactive transfers deactivated. This means that no transfers will be possible to these universes.

    Hello commanders!


    After 4 years it is time for OGame.us to have a "new" Community Manager.

    Schneeprinz is joining OGame.us family! He's a experience CM and I'm pretty sure you'll be in good hands and getting along nicely.


    I'm still around for some more days during this transition phase and from now on he will be the responsible for the community.

    Thank you all for the amazing for years where thanks to all of you I had the opportunity to learn a lot.


    Best wishes for all the OGame.us community,

    Prongs

    Hello The Reaper.


    Before opening the poll ingame we need a forum discussion about the suggestion to find a common change suggestion.

    Please ask more universes players to participate on the discussion.

    Only one suggestion and request is not enough for a ingame poll and most likely won't bring any of the desired changes.

    Dear community,


    unfortunately it is sad news that bring me back to this thread.

    Due to personal matters the Admins v0ldem0rt and kewlness are no longer on the team.

    I honestly hope to see them back again within our ranks soon and wish the best!

    Hello commanders!


    With the introduction of the new OGame App, the current iPad application will be removed from the AppStore.
    This means that every iPad account that is not connected to a Gameforge.com account might be lost.

    In order to prevent any issues please make sure to make the account portable.


    When opening the iPad app the following message pop up:
    ipad1.png


    Go to the account list and click on the mentioned symbol:ipadPT.png


    Add the desired email/password:
    ipad2.png



    As stated, insert a valid email address and the desired password (it will be the Lobby credentials to login on a browser) and click "Make portable".

    The last step is to open the browser on your computer or smartphone and login with the credentials chosen above.
    - If the used credentials are for a new Lobby account, as soon as you login the new Gameforge.com account will be created and the game account linked to it.
    - If the used credentials are from an existent Lobby, when accessing to you game accounts list you'll see a warning with "We have found more game accounts that use the same email address. Click here and link them to your lobby!". After clicking on it you'll get a email message with a link to confirm, click on it and the account will be added to the Lobby.

    If you have any questions please contact us through the support system.

    Hello commanders!

    On Monday, May 30 at 13:00 CEST, we will implement version 8.7.2 on the live servers.

    Changelog:

    - Fixed issue where the Dark Matter shop wasn't opening with Mobile View

    - Combat report no longer missing how many Reapers were used to recycle debris and how many Recyclers/Pathfinders were needed for original debris

    - Backend fixes


    Note: Please bear in mind that after the first phase and until the second phase finishes it is not possible to move accounts from the graveyard to other communities besides OGame.org.


    Please be aware that an update can always cause logouts and possibly very short downtimes.



    Your OGame.us Team

    Hello commanders!


    Tomorrow, 11 of May, between 8:15 and 8:45 CEST some game rounds will go under maintenance.
    Attack block will be set from 8:00 to 9:30 CEST


    The affected OGame.us universes will be:

    - Spica

    - Tarazed


    Best regards,

    Your OGame.us Team

    Hello commanders!


    Due to an issue with the data center, the following servers were inaccessible for a time:


    Spica US



    Because of this, we will set an attack block on these servers until 13:00 CEST today. Please note that this will only affect anything between when the server are back up until 13:00, not attacks that get resolved while the servers are down.


    Your OGame.us Team

    Hello commanders!


    Unfortunately there's a setting changed needed for Group 2 that was missing due to the universes age and therefore when trying to transfer the account no target was displayed.

    This change was requested and should have effect during the following days.

    We are still able to transfer manually the accounts if you want to but in order to keep the transfer perks we suggest to wait for it to unlock from your end.


    We appologize for the inconvenience and feel free to send a ticket in case of doubts.


    Cheers,

    Hello commanders!


    We will activate in all servers a 7 days daily bonus through the reward system event.


    How does it work?

    - Every day you log in in your account you'll get 100 tritium (yes, commanding staff gives the 20% extra).

    - The event has 7 tiers.

    - Each tier will ask you for an extra 100 tritium. If you log in daily, you'll be able to collect every single day's reward.


    The event started today 17th of March at 07:00 and ends on the 24th of March at 07:00, all is server time.



    Your OGame.us Team

    Hello commanders!


    A few considerations for the merge:

    • Unfortunately the alliances won't be transferred to the target server. Since there's a cooldown of 14 days after the creation for the founder to be able to activate the class without paying for it we ask you (founders) to open a ticket as soon as you transfer the account requesting for the class to be activated. Please on the ticket add the information as alliance name, tag and class it had on the exodus, after that we will check and activate the class as soon as possible on the target.
    • It might happen that the desired target doesn't show immediately for you to select. In this case, if you want we can help to move the account but for that we will need some steps:
      - Select one of the available targets that you have and transfer the account there.
      - Do not interact with the "bridge" universe.
      - Send us a support ticket with which bridge universe you used and your desired target.
      These steps are needed for you to have the relocations since a manual merge of the account won't grant any relocation or perk.



    Thank you!

    Version 8.6.0



    Hello commanders!


    We will update the PTS servers with version 8.6.0 tomorrow, February the 3rd at 11:00 CET.



    Changelog:

    • The button for setting the maximum number of buildable ships and defences is no longer a feature of the Commander, but is now available to everyone
    • Fixed several cases in which the "Start with DM" button was displayed when you could not actually start a building, ship, or conducting research at all
    • The high-score table no longer instantly updates player ranks. This should improve general performance on servers with higher populations
    • Several backend changes

    Hey folks!


    The universes that I used was just an example.

    As said, the settings can be adjusted as most of you would like to have, be it economy or any other setting. From my experience setting as fleet speed or ACS will hardly have a majority to be accepted (unless is just adjustments on the various fleet speeds), but let us know your ideal merge scenario, give us a plan as example, and we will take it in consideration before present to you a plan that most likely will move forward. With your help we want to try to make the most fair and wanted merge for US, completely aware that unfortunately it won't be possible to make it good for every single player, but is either try to have one or continue with the state in which we are now.


    There are some suggestions to use OGame.org as target, to be honest with you I think that will be the first step for US to lose its identity, but if it is a desired option I'll talk with OGame.org CM to see how can we use it. For that option we will depend on OGame.org merges so the target migh be restricted due to their plans.

    Someone mentioned to me as well to have some OGame.us universes as target for OGame.org because it would bring more players to OGame.us. That would also need me to talk with the OGame.org CM but as said, give me all the suggestions you would like and after that we will see what we need to do.


    Keep also in mind that we don't know for sure if any of the mix merges options is doable, but before investing time on it we need to know your opinion about all the possibilities.



    Cheers,
