First was called 1602, unless you mean the first you played was 1404?

This game is pretty old now, why is it still so damn expensive?

Does seem like the on sale price has doubled. The complete (but will it be) edition is currently £60 on gamersgate. Wouldn't be surprised if they announced a season 4. If you've not played it, 2070 is good and the complete edition is under £6 on gamersgate - might be cheaper elsewhere, not checked. Also got the 1404 history edition for around the same.

Well I was enjoying this but looks like some update has broken it

Saw a few weeks back this was cracked in January. That took a loooong time.

Bought this over christmas, does anyone know if there's an overview of all the shares of each island? At the moment I'm just flicking between each island in every area to check them individually.

News to me anyway that the fourth season has been announced.
Reminded me about this game and perhaps I'll look at the previous seasons. It might be cheaper to buy a complete edition.

Theres so much content in Anno 1800 now its bonkers. Easily the best game of its type imo.

Might have to look at this one again, did enjoy it when it first came out but was one of the few games that really started to make my 9900k struggle with so much stuff going on.

I'm more surprised by the memory usage than the CPU load....

Aye, it's a very demanding game for sure.

This is on a free week on Ubisoft Connect - April 12-19th, starting tonight at 5pm. Am downloading now, looking forward to playing my first Anno game!

First game didn't go too well. I kept getting messages about worker shortage (farmers?) and had no lumber to build any more farms. So I quit as I couldn't figure out how to get more lumber.

Not played it for a while but one thing I made a mistake with is only building a few houses for what is required, seems you have to build a lot so you have excess for workers and taxes etc

Thanks. I figured out you can build a lumber farm thing but I did it too far away from the warehouse and then had no lumber to build a new warehouse closer to it. It's all knowledge for the next run though.

What’s the cheapest way to get this? I didn’t get to play much over the free weekend but I am keen on it.

There are a couple of key sites where it’s £14 or Ubisoft Store is £16.

This is why 32GB should be deemed standard for gaming PC’s now

I'm considering ubisoft+. Would be a no brainer if rocksmith+ was out already but it isn't lol So might just buy it
