City Project - Training fields

[AgarTheBearded]

So I leveled up the "Training fields" in the city, and description suggests that it's giving the bonus +4 exp to the garrisoned troops.
But not even the weakest tier 1 looters or other troops are leveling up. Is it even working at this point, someone had any troops leveled up in garrison thanks to that city project?

I'm also curious about this

Good to hear, subject didn't get much love, I couldn't find other posts about it, so hopefully we will get some attention soon.

Well you can test it yourself. Look at the xp of a troop. Wait a day and see if it changed.

I just quickly glanced over it a few days ago and saw xp changing. But it will still take a LOT of days to reach enough for rank up.

I have like 40h into one campaign and even one looter didn't leveled up from this.

If I have a troop around that is close to ranking up, I will up test if they aitomatically rank up or require manual button pressing.
But im general 4xp is an abysmal amount compared to what they need. And I think only 1 guy of the same troop type gets 4xp.

Thanks for testing it mate. If the level III infrastructure allow to train one single person, then it sounds quiet lame and unreasonable.
Imagine the training ground where for years only single poor bastard looter is allowed to come and train, and the rest of the garrison have to wait till he finish in 1093. Damn. Not fun at all. City had to spent tons of income and time to build it, only for that?

This is correct. I'm pretty sure it is 500+ xp for a level 1 troop, so that is 100+ days min for one troop to level. Very underpowered.

At this point, it just seems like something to spend money on sadly. I'm sure it will get some love soon.

Unfortunately my save got corrupted, so I cant tedt if units automatically rank up. But I guess that 1 upgraded unit after a few years wont make a difference anyway :>

But in general 4xp is an abysmal amount compared to what they need.

To make any difference it would have to be a significant amout, like 100xp. Even then it would be pretty slow.

There are many perks with tiny effects as well. You can get a whole 4% swing speed for one handed weapons. I honestly don't think that would even be noticeable.

There seems to have been a complete lack of internal play testing before EA. Things like the training fields were never tried by anyone actually playing the game.

It does give xp, but it's a small amount, and you're going to have to rank them up manually when they have enough xp
