BrythonLexi Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 It appears that my nation is experiences a fall in approval ratings over time. However, based on the Wiki's calculations for approval rating, this does not make sense. Pollution is at 0, population density is less than 125, and I have both money and food. The only factor should be a 0.025/turn increase as well as the positive boost from low pop density and no pollution. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Alex Posted December 21, 2020 Administrators Share Posted December 21, 2020 The wiki is a bit outdated, some time ago I set an equilibrium approval rating of 60%, and your approval rating should increase/decrease by 1% per day or so toward that level. So it's a bit of a logistic function with the equilibrium at 60%. 1 Quote Is there a bug? Report It | Not understanding game mechanics? Ask About It | Got a good idea?

Kabu Posted January 3, 2021 Share Posted January 3, 2021 Requesting a little bit of transparency here. Why did this change go in? How does one keep it above 100% after the update (seems impossible)? Most people don't care about it but what of those people who do? It seems this update essentially gets rid of the approval rating system entirely, and if that's the case, then why not set the equilibrium at 100% for people who DO care about their rating? Lastly, was this change broadcasted? I don't remember seeing it in any changelogs in-game? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, to answer this one, if the approval rating is meant to shift by 1% per day then that's negligible compared to how far it moves due to warfare. Given ±1000% approval rating, it would literally take three IRL years of pixelhugging to even shift back into sane levels. Meanwhile, each war won or lost (which can happen at a faster rate than one per day given intense raiding or global warring) counts for several times that much. Outside of the most legendarily cowardly pixelhuggers, and most of the time even for them, war is the real factor that dictates approval rating and easily transcends such trivial concerns as nation-wide starvation, economic collapse or blackouts.

Alan Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 As the person with the highest approval rating there's not really any issues here. Every day I increase my approval rating by 8. During war it drops dramatically (last 2 wars dropped me by 230 score). If you're really trying to increase your approval rating it's not challenging. Quote A game dies without a community.
