Future of Polytopia
1)Will "Diplomacy" tech, insect tribe, team game mode and other features be released in one update?
2)Why tribes are not balanced?
3)Will you make tutorial?
4)Will there be special tribes after the upcoming one?

1. They will be coming, but not in the same update

2. We're planning to fix that. Imbalance wasn't intentional

3. Yes

4. Yes

Add a Dwarf tribe, its the least you can do since you added ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ elves years ago and their ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ dragons, what is this warhammer? Maybe you should have made it a Dragon faction and they use elves as slaves, wouldnt that be great! :angrydwarf:

Now this is crazy talk. Clearly and objectively Dwarves > Elves :steamhappy:

Ehh, I'd take goblins over either of them.

1)Will you increase the number of players?
2)Will you add t4 techs?

The number of players will equal the amount of playable tribes. Right now, that's 15.

No, Midjiwan has said he doesn't want T4 techs, as the game *should* be over long before then.

Is he unaware that games can go on for hundreds of turns?

Officially, the game is designed to end around turn 30-40, as Polytopia was designed to be a quick game (which won't be changing). Any more than that is kinda on the players for not finishing the game fast enough.

We have no plans to encourage people to go beyond this 30-40 turn limit.

I don't know how you're supposed to win a 15 players game in 30-40 turns but I guess it is what it is.
Zoythrus™  [developer] Nov 15, 2020 @ 5:19pm 
The 15 player thing is a more recent invention.

Still, we have no current plans to accommodate a "longer" playstyle.

Will the next tribe have its own color like other tribes? Will it be more special than Polaris?

Every tribe will have its own color.

Depends on your definition of "more special".

Are we going to get any more free tribes or will they all be DLC?
