Oh one more thing about the cost of buying gold using real money. The game maker is quite smart in knowing that with each expansion of land, our money earning ability also increase, because of that, everything get more expensive to balance it out, you will never be too rich. They are however forget to update their real money to gold ratio, and therefore 100dollars for 100k gold is a huge rip off (this figure was in when we only have 2island). But as everyone been saying on this forum, don't use your money to buy anything in this game due to the instability of it, cheers!

Well, I have Murlod Island open, so I guess if there is anything you want to know, it seems I would be the one to ask. I can tell you that it starts with probably less available usable space than Ancestor's Atoll. There is a quest to buy an expansion, which is 2 million. There are three more available expansions, one for two million, one for three million, and one for four million, and then three more above those, which won't show the cost until I buy the existing territories, which looks like it's going to take a week or two at the rate I am going. It looks like there is a castle, or a very large mansion or something in the 4 million gold territory, I am very curious to find out what it is. I can tell you that what seems to be the last quest on Island of the Ancients calls for 25 long term deals on volley ball courts, and 15 long term deals in the coliseum. I can tell you that when you finally open the portal to Murlod Island on Ancestor's Atoll, Murlods come pouring out at about 6-8 every 3-5 minutes, and tornadoes start appearing 3 at a time. I can probably answer most questions, obviously, but I thought maybe someone here would be as far as I am. I guess if anyone would like to know anything, feel free to ask.

I hope that they eventually add the friends option, and that if they do, they allow people to sends resources to one another (wishful thinking, I'm sure). I can produce coral like it's nothing, so I would love to be able to trade that for sand, or cut stone.

Hey hey, thanks for the insight info, I'm not as lucky as you I guess, since I'm still on the quest to open the portal. In the mean time, I'm just trying to get as much gold as I can, seem like 20mil won't be enough for murlord it seems. I'm a bit lazy on building more collisium, but I guess I can start now, or do it slowly since those order long term deals don't seem to have any string attached.

About the murlord and tornados, that's kinda expected, however, the less valuable space is another bleh >_> I hate ancestor as it is, to have another with the same space problem is really bleh. Do you have to build bridges? Or just straight out buying the territories?

And about playing with friends, I rather they do what hay day do, where you can sell your resources, much better than just trading with friend lol

Lordelohim: Thanks for the update. I should be there with three more items. The Invasions seems like the perfect opportunity for me to get my firefighters award. I messed up when I expanded the Fjord because I had 5 dinos running around and I destroyed the invaders homes pretty quickly.

One thing I dislike about the new update is the amount of money needed. At this point it just becomes a money grind.

That section of Murlod Island where you see most of my houses is where you start. Where the blue orb is, and the two dudes are working is the first area you can buy, or rather, have to buy. It was 2 million. There was a Murlod tower there, that had to be destroyed for a quest, it was one of those red towers you see in the next available area. That was covered in mist before I took the tower apart, and now it appears as though it's the next territory that needs to be purchased, and it's 3 million. There's already a quest to destroy those two towers. As you can see, no bridges, just really expensive land. There's definitely no lack of space, as there is with Ancestor's Atoll, it's just really expensive to unlock it. The trouble I'm having is, I don't have enough happiness to buy more houses, I don't have enough money to buy things to increase happiness, or anywhere to put them, and I don't have enough warehouse space to hold enough food to buy the better buildings. This island is tricky.

As for making money, I'm coming to realize that I have wasted A LOT of potential money using the higher duration deals. The amount of money you make goes down considerably the longer the deals you buy. I was using 2 hour deals on everything, save for when I am asleep, but you get a lot more money and resources out of the 30 minute and one hour deals, if you have the time to be checking in that much.

Any more questions, feel free to ask. Posting that screenshot was pretty easy too, so if anyone needs a pic of anything else, just ask.

And here is what pretty much has to be Murlod Castle at the top of Murlod Island, probably about 20 million gold away, or more.

Thanks for all of this info. I am devoting all of my resources to building money grinders now. I'm thinking of holding a volleyball tournament.

Lordelohim · #**830** 08-02-2012, 09:28 AM

I'll jump in on a volleyball tournament. Between my 4 other islands, I have 53 volleyball courts.
