The Russian version of the MMO Skyforge receives updates the fastest. Europeans and Americans usually have to wait a bit longer. The reason is obvious: Russia is the home country of the development team Team Allods. In a community letter, the differences are addressed and it is explained what significance other regions have.
In a letter from the European producer, Fabien Alexandre, he explains that he has spoken with the developers of Skyforge. They are enthusiastic about any feedback, whether it comes from Europe, the USA, or Russia. Updates for the Russian version are always implemented the fastest, but they are working to ensure that the other regions do not have to wait long before they also receive new updates. The advantage here is that these reach the EU/NA live servers in an improved state.
While the Russian version of Skyforge continues to receive its updates a bit earlier than we do, we have a little more time to introduce changes that we want to implement. So we are getting an improved, polished version of Skyforge.
In many cases, it is even the case that updates are released simultaneously or first in Europe and the USA. This is the case when the updates are intended for the western market, as western players and Russians differ somewhat in how they play an MMO and what they prefer within it.
Special updates for the western market, much planned
The feedback from western players is therefore equally important. The developers take this into account and incorporate it whenever possible:
For example, when we read your feedback on the Grand Prix event and discussed it with the development team, we decided that starting from the “Law and Order” event, you will be able to achieve higher placements more frequently and earn more than 1 or 2 points. We also exchanged the optimizers I and II (items for bonus temples) for a certain number of victory medals. (…) There are many ways to obtain victory medals – in-game as well as through the event. This allows you to fairly reach the bonus temples in many ways(…) These changes were made by the developers to make the event more attractive and accessible for western players.
Currently, many updates are in development, some of which are still in the ideas and design phases. However, Skyforge players can look forward to class balance changes for PvE and PvP, changes to events, more PvP modes and ranked PvP, potential changes to reduce the repetition of certain missions, gamepad support, and more. The European producer of the MMORPG is confident that much of the feedback from western players will be implemented in Skyforge, and that updates will also be delivered faster in the future.
