Humankind 2nd Anniversary Community Challenge

Hey everybody!


Humankind was released two years ago today, so it's time for a little celebration. Just a little one, though, as we’re quite busy working on the next update. :) 

For those of you who haven't been following our regular news, here's a little summary of what we've worked on in the past year:




We know many of you are excited to get your hands on the trade rework, improve naval combat, and poaching ability, but that’s not quite ready to ship yet. (Don't worry, it's not that far off now. You'll get a hold of it next month.)

To get you in the mood to mess with your enemies once the new update hits the waves, we prepared a little community challenge: From today (August 17th) until next Tuesday (August 22nd), we’ll be tracking the number of districts all of our players ransack together. As you burn and pillage more districts, you will progressively unlock Humankind-themed rewards, alongside a few hints about the final in-game reward.


  • Goal 1: A hint of what’s to come 
  • Goal 2: New G2G Badge
  • Goal 3: A second glimpse of the future 
  • Goal 4: New Humankind wallpaper 
  • Goal 5: The final clue 
  • Goal 6: New free in-game content 



The hints will be revealed as you reach the goals, but all other rewards will be delivered with the naval update. 


EDIT:

You've done it! All the clues and rewards have been unlocked.

All rewards will be delivered with the naval update, and we will reveal what the final reward is soon. Until then, I hope have fun speculating about it. :)

And since there seems to be a bug with the reward containing the final clue, I will include it here:



Have fun stealing your neighbor’s riches!

No it keeps asking me how am I going to download it built the button does not activate.

The statement sounds more like a threat now

Same here. It just gives an arrow pointing backwards and nothing happens. I have even unpacked the latest wallpaper pack, but darn if I can find anything hidden in that either. In a way I kind of like it. It's a mystery. :)

The reward should be working now, but just to be sure I have included the image in the blogpost itself.


Have fun looking for the clue and speculating about the reward until we reveal it! :)

Hey,


Thanks for the reports about the broken reward. I'll look into it as try to get it fixed as soon as possible.

No worries.

I'm so looking forward to the naval update. I have always liked exploring the seas, find new continents and have a decent-sized navy. I have often used it to block opponents from getting out on the oceans to try and get a foothold on my turf (after I have wiped out the opponents on my continent). Kind of having a fleet stationed around their continents/lands, with some hexes inbetween each ship, so I get a full view of the tiles and the attack their forces as soon as they try to embark. Getting some new mechanics and stuff to do with the naval forces, plus improved naval combat is a win win.


Btw, that map looks like a map to El Dorado. I like it. :)

Thanks for the challenge, I went down a couple of difficulty levels and picked assyrians, goths, mongols and inca and just burned down the world :)


A fun interaction I noticed is that you can build/buy out mongol hordes for 2k each (so 8k for 4) and convert four of them into an outpost, which you can then merge cheap/free due to the terrace farms.

Looking forward to the naval update.

Was going to log in tonight (only night I have time to game) but it stalls and won't load

If you are having problems like that, please do remember to open a thread in the bug reports section, so I can ask our QA to investigate.
