The Stone resource in Farthest Frontier is a big problem when you reach the late game stage, we’re sure you’ve found that it becomes incredibly scarce, making you worry how you’re going to continue to expand your settlement.
Thankfully, Crate Entertainment has been listening to feedback and players complaints about the insufficient numbers of Stone to meet demand during the late game, and changes are on the way with Patch v0.7.5.
Farthest Frontier Stone - Mega Rock saves the city
Mineral Deposits will now contain even more resources, and as a quick solution to the end game problem, Crate Entertainment will be adding a Mega Rock to Farthest Frontier. “This behemoth should sate hungry cities for generations”, said Crate Entertainment in a statement released to the public on its official forums.
We’re assuming that this Mega Rock will contain an abundance of Stone, if not an infinite amount, so players will no longer have to worry about building up their settlements and expanding the population in the end game stage.
Stone is a vital resource for many of the buildings, but it can also be used to upgrade your roads and build defences walls in the late game. If you want to build Minas Tirith, you’ll need quite a few of these Mega Rocks! Before you’d have to try and buy Stone from the Trading Post if you wanted enough to build a grand city.
Quarries and Deep Mines
Quarries and Deep Mines should be added in a future update, we don’t think they’ll arrive in Patch v0.7.5, but it wasn’t clear so we’ve asked Crate Entertainment about this and are awaiting a response.
Quarries and Deep Mines are said to offer an endless supply of resources, perfect for those players that just want to build a great settlement to show off to their friends without the hassle of fending off raiders and troublesome bears. The team is also working on making forests more sustainable, so wood will become less of a problem and players won’t have to spend time growing so many trees.
