Hello dear “The Settlers Online” fans,

Since the announcement and the transfer from Flash to Unity, we have received an overwhelming number of comments, feedback, and reports.

We wanted to assure you that our team is committed to fixing the issues you’ve reported on various platforms, including but not limited to:

• Prestigious Friend Buffs disappearing too soon
• Non-working guild member certificates
• Non-granted building licenses
• Various locked zone issues
• Performance and lag issues

The latter point will be a long-term effort over the next couple of months as it is a step-by-step optimization process, with some first changes being rolled out with the next release. Please keep the feedback and reports coming.

Our relationship with the community is very important to us and as a little thank you to all of you, make sure you keep an eye on your in-game mailbox in the following days.

Besides fixing the issues and ensuring a stable game, we want to continue bringing events regularly to our player base. The next event planned is the “Christmas Event”, which will bring new quests, buildings, and special surprises.

Dear Settlers,

We're aware of issues related to the Love Garden and resulting locked zones. We will be implementing a hotfix soon in order to resolve this.

For now, please avoid using the Love Garden to prevent yourself from running into this specific issue.
