All the buildings in the game will have a points value calculated basing on their size, era and type (event and premium buildings are a bit more valuable than other, standard buildings). Points for all the goods spent until now will be retroactively added to the ranking. The goods values differ depending on their age (the higher the age, the higher the value). The only exception is trading - goods spent there will not be counted towards the ranking (to avoid possible abuses). Whenever a good is spent, its point value will be added to the ranking (research tree, Great Buildings, sector negotiation and so on). Also all the current ranking points that come from your battles will be kept. All the battle points (from all battles you fight) will count towards the ranking, just like they do now (and with the same value). This is the same as in the current setup. Additionally, all players with at least 1000 ranking points (when the recalculation takes place) will receive a city decoration that will be a proof of their achievement: To symbolically compensate the loss and to give everyone an opportunity to preserve the memory of their dominance in the old ranking setup, we will save a top 25 players from the day before the recalculation and put the list right here in the forums. The majority of the players who will lose their position are players with very high level Great Buildings, because their value will be much more reasonable from now on. Major balancing changes will obviously cause major ranking shake-up: Many players will get a higher position in the ranking, but just as many will go down the ranking. We spent some time considering what would be the best approach and we agreed that some major changes are needed in order to improve the current setup. To handle this problem, we have decided to introduce some changes in this area of the game. There are indeed some inconsistencies in the ranking that arose during the years. In the last months we've been frequently receiving feedback regarding the ranking not representing your in-game achievements and activity (including Great Buildings and the ranking points they provide).
