Poll: Are you tired of reading about Footfall and if it broke or not?

I’m happy to come and look at this beacon.

If the beacon does have a skinny bit (which could be a bridge - say) then one solution is to split that part into it’s own beacon. Align all of it to your guild and the fat parts will generate their prestige again.

This is an opinion independent of data.

Here is a chart tracking median footfall per data for all players.
(Reminder that median is: put everyone in order and ask the middle person what they got.)

There is a dip when we did the release. And we’ve tweaked the a balance since and the median is higher than ever.

The majority of players are getting more footfall.

The change we made in Release 123.1, was another step to balancing the configuration. Today will be the first 24 hour period that contains the full release. The partial data from yesterday already showed a marked improvement.


A plot actually needs 5 plots around it to not be a road.

The initial update was set to 8 based on image based comparisons of settlement maps before and after the change. But we quickly realised that this broke too many beacons that were very carefully plotted and we altered it to 5.
