In server 1 after the patch you can no longer get medals from attacks.
They may have dropped the success rate back to what it was before. It was 100% for a few days, and now I'm kicking myself for not grabbing 50 of each.
Ive just noiced that too. never knew it was at 100 though.
me either, i wish they would change it back... it will make things much more difficult
made everything move faster. plus it was really hard to get some medals. so now 60% of the time i have a 50% chance of getting a medal i need, so all in all not as good.
It is just toooo slow for me now
Yeah...It's going to suck now, but oh well. I did over 1,000 attacks and got the 1,000 medals, so I should be fine =D.
They didn't change the success rate, they changed the way it works entirely. In this new version, item drop "chances" are based on number of enemy casualties. In short, you can't even get medals anymore from spamming valleys with no troops. So there won't be any more scout-farming.
that's a good update, medal farming made the game too easy. Glad to know something was done to make this more of a challenge.
killed hundreds of troops each time, and not one medal. Not even the ones i have too many of.:confused:
Yes its a good fix for the people who already have sll the medals they need. They now won't have to worry about anybody else being promoted ever. No challenge indeed for them.
I sat here for hours trying to get a medal this evening. I have conqured level 2, 4, and 6 valleys. I have killed hundreds of troops. 18 valleys I conquered. I have sent my hero and scout back and forth, back and forth as some have told me to do. NOT ONE medal. NOT ONE!!!!! If I sat here for 8 hours trying to get one medal and did not, then how long is it going to take me????? That is a little extreme, dontcha':confused: think? I mean I don't have THAT kind of time, and besides, it is boring after about the 9th or 10th valley in a row! Come on now. Think. Use your brains admins! please?
i think the % dropped down to 12% as in one of the medal post.
this kind of sucks as those who got the advantage b4 the patch still retain what they got, thus the situation now is the strong will get stronger, the weak will never get stronger..... sign.....
ok so I had to do over 100 attacks at 6 minutes total an attack over 100 times to get 3 medals I needed... that was before the patch and now I need a total of 6... what does this mean for me? no Viscount for me ever... Earl was just a dream huh?
Totally agree - after a few attacks with no medals it gets very boring indeed, especially when trying to give a 'fair fight' means you keep losing troops and have to wait while you train more.
I think this one alteration has changed the game from an interesting one into one which I don't think I'll keep playing - it's just too tedious trying to get promoted now, and I can think of several more interesting ways of passing time than waiting for yet another failed attack to complete.
Also as pointed out previously, players who were fortunate to get loads of medals early on will just get stronger while newer players just don't have a hope of being able to catch up and compete with them
Attacked everything, even above the lv i could cope with, bored and sick of attacking valley's, just resigned to the fact i will alway's be a CRAPPY COLONEL ! Thank's Civony for no medal's and quest's that are now impossible to fulfil.
I agree that getting a medal every time you successfully attacked was to much. But now after spending hours trying to get ONE, I have gotten none. Nothing I have tried has increased my chances (to my knowledge). There has to be some kind of middle, some kind of compromise. How about 25% chance to get a medal upon successful attack? I know scout farming isn't desirable, but there should be some way to reliably get a chance to obtain a medal. I don't want to buy them (they are TOO EXPENSIVE).
:confused:
No one in my alliance has received any medals yet with this new update. Has anyone gotten at least one yet?
Nobody I know has gotten a medal yet either. They've got to fix this, or everyone not in the top positions are going to be forced to server 4 just to compete.
attacked valleys from levels 1 to 9... lakes, hill, swamps, dessert and a grassland. attacked two NPC cities and several player cities. assured the NPC and valleys were comparable troops. nothing. not even extras... concerned now that we won't even be able to get scripts this way.
suppose this has been reported enough, just adding me to the list of no medals, etc. on any type of attack, have tried them all.
everyone posting that this is a good change already got their medals, i got over 100 of each cause i knew the 100% drop thing was too good to be true. Still this will hurt newbies badly.

there are a few topics about medal drop rates now, wasnt sure where to reply,
yeah ... not happy, everyone I speak to in game ... not happy either.
I greeted the medal changes warmly, scout-spam to get medals had to go, and 100% drop rate was not needed either.
But now I've had more time to test out the medal drop rates (as have alliance buddys) I'm also thinking the game is ruined now(for new players especially) and I might not bother with it anymore.
CIVONY ... for every topic, post and reply made by players unhappy about new medal system, there will be another 50 players ALSO unhappy that dont post/register on the forum.
I think this "over nerfing" of medal drop rates is going to hurt the game very badly.
no medals either... can we get an 'offical' statement to this issue?
starting to lose intrest in this 'production' 'beta' game...
I don't have the rights to lock/merge this thread, but the confusion of having four of these identical threads is probably a little annoying to some. I'd ask that any further conversation about this go here. It's the largest thread at the moment concerning the subject. Not trying to step on toes here, just trying to keep things clean. Thanks.
Personally I think it sucks, those of us that have only been playing for a while are at a loss to compete with alliances like WMD and Spartanz in server 1 when we cannot get the medals to build our cities up and get more cities to even begin to match their abilities.
They need to bring it back the way it was, I was 9 lions away from baron to up my cities, but now can't find one single medal anywhere.
I'm still under beginner protection and took over a couple lvl 4s. Two had about 600 troops there. Nothing in the way of rewards except experience for my hero. No resources. No medals. Nothing. If you have to kill more troops than that, it's impossible to advance.
I hope there is a new fix tomorrow.
There's a better chance of getting a response if all of the complaints and concerns are in one thread, instead of multiple ones. Excuse me for my attempt at helping.
also have not seen any medals since the new patch, have attacked and conquered valleys from level 1 to 10 and sometimes taking 0 casualties, not seeing anything drop.
bad enough this game has been ruined (it was a fine playable game) with medals n other upgrades, but now there's an *** moderator, jezz
another game, time n moneys invested n to **** it goes.

yep, game gods are idiots, they have ruined another game.
think i will tell my credit card company that the money i invested just wasn't me.

n now there's a lost in the park moderator mucking up the forum, jezz, does it ever end
