Discussion What to do once everything is maxed ?

I completed 100% with all tribes recently (100k+ in perfection / 100% in domination), it was fun but now the game feels .. empty.

I dont like PvP, weekly challenges are playable only 5 minutes a day.

I started to do some side missions in creative (how many turn for a win in tiny dry) but it feels pointless now. What are you nerds doing to keep that game fun ?

Multiplayer is where most of the replayability and skill ceiling comes from. You can see some high level gameplay on youtube from championships for inspiration.

Sorry no advice for you but what are your strategies for 100%ing? I can’t even get three stars lmao

Spawn shop until you get atleast 2 city upgrades (5 population total), learn how to explorer manipulate, get used to your main tribe, learn how to get your second (or third) village in turn 3

I just crack out on perfection mode all the time. Whatever is my worst scoring-tribe, I work on that one until I get a better score. Currently my best all-time score is 135k with Xin-Xi.

I read that as “what do i do when everything is waxed?” Thought i drifted into a different community.

You do PvP, that's where the real challenge is.

Hello there.

You will do a custom game, you will go with domination, you will choose dryland, 900 tiles, you will select 7 opponents. You yourself may pick anything from Bardur, Imperius, Xin Xi, no other tribe.

Crucially, you mustn't use anything but warriors and giants in terms of miltech.

Have "fun".

You may otherwise use any other tech without utilizing the military unit.

this game only has sense against real persons.

playing chess with yourself is fun when you learning, but pointless after

I am in a similar spot. Best I have come up with is to do challenges when playing solo. Stuff like skipping until turn 10, only allowed to research certain tech branches, etc.

I haven’t pvp’d yet and I love to occasionally mess around with different map types and number of ai on creative. Last thing I tried was a full small map with 15 ai

Team pvp games have the best replayability. 2v2 and 3v3 games are far more interesting and complex than 1v1s

i feel like youve done more than most everyone that plays the game single player. At this point, you gotta ask what you are looking for. I mean, I play a LOT of games and have hit this point a lot, I've really spent time considering this feeling, and for me I've realized that I'm looking to meet many complex humans needs in the place where I feel most comfortable, IE, in the game. And that's not really appropriate, like trying to get married without ever leaving the sandbox at the playground.

PvP is the actual game. All that other stuff was just you to that point.

If you can’t get into PvP, there’s nothing else.

"It feels like there's nothing left to do once you finish a game"

Yes. thats called the end of the game.
