    As promised, Here is the big new update.

    [​IMG]

    Introducing Hera! The queen of the gods. Be careful not to cross her for she can be pretty vengeful.
    [​IMG]

    We wanted to give her a very strong attack but didn't want to give her a heavy weapon since her strength came from her vengeful heart instead of physical strength like Athena so we settled on a whip for her standard attack. It's brutal but still regal enough for a queen. And it looks absolutely devastating in game.

    Powers:
    Absorbing Strike - Absorbs health when she deals damage
    Revenge - Damage is reflected back at an increased rate to anyone who harms Hera.
    Wrath - Her ultimate ability inflicts huge explosion damage to everything nearby.
    [​IMG]

    Alliance Power:
    Vengeance Warriors - Vengeance Warriors pack the same punch as regular hoplites, but also cause explosion damage upon death.
    [​IMG]

    Hera's Buildings:
    Hera Monument - Regularly spawns Hera’s Vengeance Warriors.
    Hera Houses - Adjacent buildings cause explosion damage to nearby enemies when they are destroyed.
    Hera Temple - Provides explosion damage for all temples.
    [​IMG]

    Here is a sneak peak video by our good friend KeaGirl showcasing Hera's awesome abilities.


    We've also been focusing on our base building. Our previous release introduced a new Cyclops tower. With this new release we've added higher levels to all existing towers - you can now upgrade to Level 40!.

    [​IMG]

    Hope you enjoy this release. We are already hard at work on the next god.

    Hi THE 21maZTeRz and Posidan is the best, while I cannot speak to a specific date, I can assure you that he is in the works. We know that users a very anxious to get their hands on him, but we want to make sure that when we release him, we are giving you something worthy of the wait. But don't worry, he's for sure coming, lurking in the dark blue abyss just waiting for the right time for his great rise from the depths.... soon enough.

    Old request

    Since the creation of this game i myself reported many glitchs specially these two:
    1- Gold collecting button " which a button appears After a defence, when you click on it, screen jumps to zoom and it stops collecting you have to press it again and again and again"

    2- Match Making System " UNFAIR MATCHES, " wheter yiu say our match making system works like this or that, it needs to change! When players with full upgraded gods at least 10lvl higher than me, attack me on Normal and destroy my city in a second and take 20 trophies from me! It's nothing to say something to just convince us, it's a mistake of game system and however it is designed, it needs to be changed.

    Don't know why these two problems never get fixed after many updates... :D
    Please fix it for us.

    Thank you garry and other developers.

    About Poseidon -- we're definitely working on him! :) We've got some great ideas and things are going well, but if anyone has suggestions / ideas that you'd like us to consider, share your thoughts here! We're always listening.

    (To recap for those unfamiliar: when you're attacked in Gods of Olympus, you receive treasure chests in your city representing the gods that you've wounded or defeated. Shahnam is using the "Collect All" button which gathers all of these chests up.)

    Thanks, you're right, even though we've made some fixes that improved this behavior, we've found that this need to press the button multiple times can pop up for some players, almost always outside of the United States. When you use the Collect All button, what percentage of the time would you say that this happens? Is it occasional for you or an all-the-time thing?

    Thanks for the feedback! In general we've found that the matchmaking system works quite well in the broad middle of the player base, but it's trickier for folks that are being attacked by fully upgraded gods. (It sounds like you are facing fully upgraded gods; are you in the level 80+ range?)

    A good way to see going on with matchmaking is to check the Battle History, tap Details and then the Trophy icon for the match you wish to examine, and we lay out the details of how the match was determined. If a player gets you for 20 trophies, it means that they were lower ranked than you, and the trophy exchange works to correct that imbalance. That'll help ensure better matchmaking in the future. The wikipedia article on Elo systems (like ours) is a good reference on what we're doing: [urlhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elo_rating_system[/url] It's a great deal like how chess ratings work. (You're probably familiar with these steps and this info, but I wanted to leave it here for anyone who's curious and might be reading!)

    That said, if you check the matchmaking details and see something which looks out of place or odd, please let us know and we'll check it out!

    Name Change

    Hi! Love Gods of Olympus - the premise, and pretty much every detail you guys decided on. It's a wonderful game.

    Yesterday my name was changed from something with profanity (didn't think of it as profanity at the time, scared a** b****, but I met more youngins than I expected to) to something truly terrible, scaredy cat. The original was a joke between me and my brother, because when we tried Amnesia, that was our account name and neither of us thought we'd put it. I was never married to it, but when I signed in and was suddenly anonymous within my long-term alliance, with a name that is a ridiculous phrase I haven't uttered for decades, I felt like I was being punished.

    If the developers want clean screen names, that's no skin off my nose. I don't curse much in real life. I should have been given the option to change my name myself upon the next login, though, or given the opportunity to alter the new assignment without having added any inappropriate language back in. I tried overnight to make peace with it, but it's not happening. I HATE scaredy cat.

    I'd like to know how to change it. I'll probably take it more seriously, since I enjoy the game much more than I expected to; this style of game typically doesn't last long for me as a daily play choice. Maybe a Greek mythology reference, or something. Even my go-to screen name of Wiinter, which doesn't match this game at all to me, would be better than scaredy cat. A simple "scared" would also be preferable. My alliance called me scared, which one would think would be the first choice when editing my original name... but here we are. Now they don't know who I am, and call me cat. Boo.

    I'll avidly await a response. Thanks in advance!

    Name Change Update

    Last night I was attacked by SocialismIsForF*gs, which I find actually offensive, so how did you decide which names to change? This isn't the first curse word I've seen since my name was changed, either, although it is the ugliest.

    I also reminded myself of which Fury I'd like my name to change to, when the time comes, so let me know. Thanks!

    First off, thanks so much, Kristina, for your kind words about the game! It's hard to overstate how much this game means to all of us on the team, so it's great to hear that you're having fun! :)

    Sure thing, we're happy to get that changed up for you! Our Support team typically just changes a name in response to a complaint from a player, so don't take it personally. :) I've switched your name to "scared" for now, and let us know when you decide on which Fury to name yourself after! We'll get you set up, no problem!

    As for the person with the not-nice name who attacked you -- we agree that this language is way too ugly for an in-game name. From here on, socialism will be for figs. :)

    Thanks for the message, and thanks for playing!

    Name Change Conclusion

    Wow, you'd think after having just experienced a distortion of a user name, that wouldn't amuse me so much... but it did. xD Logging in this afternoon, I was very appreciative to see "scared"! I should have just said before; if Tisiphone is available, and it isn't too inconvenient, I'd enjoy that username. Being one of the Erinyes seems appropriate. If it is inconvenient, don't worry about it! I'm happy.

    I'm excited for Poseidan! I'm sure Hephaestus is in the works, and I'd love to see what you guys would do with Demeter. o: Keep having fun with it!! It shows.

    Reporting creepy people

    I've had a couple of instances where people have behaved creepy in my alliance which has made everyone uncomfortable. Is there any way we could report them?

    New God Ideas

    Just some thoughts but maybe some new god ideas for the upcoming gods.
    Even though you could probably do better than me :)

    Posideon
    1 Slash (trident)
    2 Rain Storm
    3 Tsunami

    Hephaestus
    1 Create (spawn robots)
    2 Troop Damage Reduction
    3 Bronze Dragon

    Demeter
    1 Summer (Bright light stuns defense)
    2 winter (slows down defensive academies and archer ranges)
    3 Tornado

    Hermes
    1 Sandal Hop (Flying Sandals come and take troops away and replace with 1/2 the amount of troops on ur side)
    2 poison (poison reeks around Hermes and does damage to everything in range)
    3 Bonus Drain (depending on lvl will take away full temple bonus to 1/4, ex: apollo healing bonus diminishes)

    Dionysus
    1 Strayr Horn (calls strarys into battle)
    2 Drunk (makes group of towers drunk and kill each other)
    3 Vine (Creates something like chain lightning but with vines and grapes but grapes explode after doing initial damage

    *note
    Abilities based on actions in Percy Jackson series*

    Idea: After adding Posideon add as many gods as u can and instead make it a bit easier to get new gods
    Could either add new defenses or renew costs or
    Change normal to easy, hard to normal, and even harder to hard.

    KEEP IMPROVING THIS GAME I LOVE IT

    Village Edit Mode

    U MUST ADD A VILLAGE EDIT MODE

    It is the one thing that might stop me from playing along with a lot of the kids in my school.
    It is impossible to make a new base when u get to a high lvl.
    Please, Please make this I want to keep playing.

    Hi Everyone,
    We are proud to finally release today our most anticipated update since launch. So many have asked for him, but we had to make sure he was just right. Poseidon is finally here! To see a list of all the new features and balance changes, go HERE.

    [​IMG]



    We gave him three devastating powers to use in battle;
    [​IMG]


    Water Blast: Fires blasts of water at enemies.

    Tidal Wave: Creates a massive tidal wave, inflicting heavy damage in a directed path.

    Kraken: Call forth a huge sea monster from the depths of the ocean.

    Of course, with a new god comes a new temple, monument, houses and assist powers. For Poseidon, we gave him the power to summon fishmen called Tritons that shoot a smaller version of the powerful Water Blast
    [​IMG]

    We've also added new environment skins for each god. Each environment gives god specific bonuses to the god's temples and houses. This will create more opportunities for deeper strategies in battle. To see a full list of all the pretty environments, go HERE.

    Here are a few of the environment skins;

    You can check out a preview for our good youtuber friend 'LEX' who does a great job of breaking down all the features and balance updates.

    Hi!

    I just installed the game (iPhone 7 Plus with iOS 11.1) and I can not write my name right at the beginning.

    :(

    Hi dlt0rre,

    First, thank you for the interest in the game. Do you have a third person keyboard running? If so, you may want to disable it temporarily.

    This has come up occasionally on other devices and sometimes just killing the game (double tap home, swipe up to close) and restarting fixes it.

    I hope this helps.
