this thread is meant for suggestions/ideas on how to improve the MA
Well, the short answer is that it's often cheaper to improve such a feature than it is to toss it away and start over new. (A lot of thought and development went into this feature after all.)You ask for ways to improve the MA when the vast majority of players don't want it.
Why do you want to force this on your customers?
If you run the numbers from the April YouTube promo, here's what you'll see.And here you have two pages of responses saying we don't want the magic academy.
You'll be running your Magic Academy FULL TIME,
Oh sure, that's why there's no advertising on TV.THE most important thing in marketing is to "GIVE PEOPLE WHAT THEY WANT". It really is that simple.
real spells that actually worked better than scrolling thru the quests
Every 3h production I make over 200k in coins and about 70k in supplies. What spell will beat that, it costs me a few clicks to scroll thru the quests and get that. Sorry, just cannot see any spell that I need to get extra rewards when we have quests.What additional spells would you like to see? Please add any and all ideas you have about spells to the Spells Ideas thread
http://superinnovator.blogspot.com/2012/02/you-can-have-any-color-you-want-so-long.htmlHenry Ford built a company on this premise
Everybody is going to want a Magic Academy anyway, withing six months, so I'm fine with making it mandatory, clean, and simple."Any customer can have a car painted any color that he wants so long as it is black."
- Henry Ford, in 1909
Lots of people objected, particularly his sales force who wanted lots of models with lots of variety. They predicted he would go out of business. In the end, he achieved his objective. In 1908 his 1,900 workers produced just over 6,000 cars. In 1911 his 4,100 workers produced just under 35,000 cars. By nearly tripling productivity, Henry Ford opened car ownership to the working class.

Not really sure what feedback you are looking for. Plenty of feedback has been given on this topic on the beta forum. The feedback here on the EN server is not really any different.
1) The building of the magic academy should be optional.
2) The magic academy should be smaller in size at the start when space is more of a premium in the early chapters. 5x5 takes up way too much space in chapter 1.
3) The magic academy should be able to be deleted if someone has built it and decides they not longer want it.
4) All quests related to the magic academy should be able to be declined.
Personally, I'm not near as fired up about this issue as some players are, I just tuck the magic academy in a corner and ignore it, but I kinda like having one of each type of building in my cities just for the looks of it.
Have lost a lot of fellowship members on different servers because of the magic academy and similar issues of players feeling like they are being forced into a specific path and are not feeling free to design the city the like. Really don't see why you should be forced to have anything but the main hall and builders hut. After that you should be able to build just what you want and you will have to live with the disadvantages of going without if you don't want things like the barracks, trader, and magic academy.
Thanks for all your great feedback so far folks. Please do keep it coming. We are collecting all your feedback and will forward it by the end of the week. The next step will be for our development team to consider that feedback (which is also being sought from other Elvenar communities) and to find the best way forward. As you can imagine this is not likely to be a swift process as there will be much feedback and many ideas. We will keep you informed as to what is happening.
As many of you have done already, we would ask you please to keep your feedback as constructive as possible, as just telling us you do not like the Academy or that it should go is not helpful. Please let us know why you do not like it, or even better how you would like to see it improved. This kind of feedback is the most useful for our development team as it gives them something to work with, a direction to head in.
