Signed. On server 70 the drop rate is less than 0.2%. In 3000+attacks on high level NPCs and lvl10 valleys 1 got 1 speaker and 1 rose medal all togheter. Ridiculous!!!

The medal and items drop should be lowered in order to make it fair to paying customers.
Those of you without jobs and have nothing better to do than play a browser game instead of doing something productive with your lives shouldn't be given any opportunity to be equal.
As with many others this medal thing is ticking me off. I understand the mods reason for making rose medals so hard to get... in order to make people spend money.
I've spent $20 and bought rose medals. I'm still 1 short and been farming an hour or so a day for weeks now. This is ridiculous! I've spent money so I feel I now have the right to complain about a game whose title includes "Free Forever". Unfortunately it's not free if you wish to grow past being able to own 2 cities. The mods announced the 10 millionth player the other day. If they got $5 per player they'd never have to worry about money again... let alone $20 per player.
Why not make a package available for $5 or $10 that allows one to grow and play the game without having to worry about spending weeks farming for medals? C'mon Devs! Make the game achievable for your players that spend some money on a "free" game.
I think the fact that the medal drop rate appears to reach ZERO when you need, say, 1 single honor medal.
That's like upping the nicotine in random packs of cigarettes or whatever the tobacco companies used to do. It's like the slot machines that are programmed to try to keep stringing you along. It's like the carnival games that are designed to almost let you win, but never do so you'll keep forking out money.
It's frustrating. But, it's their business.
The only recommendation I would make is for them to not get too greedy.
I'll pay $30 for a video game. That's usually about what an average PC game or Wii game would cost right? I understand there's more costs to this due to the platform.
But, there's a limit to how much I'll spend. There's a limit to how much most will spend. But, just as there's people who can't stop when they're at the casino, there will be people here who can't stop either.
And that's where I HOPE that the game managers put ethics one step higher on the rung than profit motive.
send out 9 heroes at a time lvl 1-3 lakes u will find them eventually.. everyone acts like it should be easy to obtain them or something.. i think they should maybe increas the drop rate to 2 or 3% but no more then that..it definitely does suck going 500 attacks without a meda, lve done it plenty of times.. but its not impossible.. im a prinsenzzin now on a new server and any money i spent certainly wasnt on medals.. for any tips on specific medals pm and ill get back to u as soon as i can
I have made roughly 350 attacks on lvl 3-4 npc?s and 300 attacks on lvl 2-3-4 valleys on server 92. Now you would think such numbers would bring a few medals. Well not one single medal out of 650 attacks. Quite a few people in the alliance I am in have made similar or more attacks and they also have yet to receive a single medal. Not even a lousy cross medal.
From what I can gather this seems to be some stupid knee-jerk reaction to bots. The bots focus on level 1-4 valleys so some bright spark has obviously thought why not remove all the medals from these valleys. That?s really smart thinking Evony. Penalise everyone because a few choose to cheat instead of just applying a little logic to the problem and penalising the cheats only. Logic like looking at how do the bots work. They work on the principle of mouse clicks and everything being in a set place for repetitive actions. Maybe if you randomly swapped the reinforce and abandon button you would render the medal hunting bots inactive. But no, instead of coding something like that which would take all of 10 mins you penalise the entire Evony community. Way to go. Smart move Evony.
The way things are going the hard working players out there will never be rewarded. Only those who choose to spend $100 or more on grossly overpriced medal packs. There is no chance for advancement in title or rank for the average player out there and the servers will end up being dominated by a small handful who spend large or get lucky on the wheel. This will spell the death of Evony because it is the core bunch of hard working players who put in the hours that keep the servers alive and active. They are the vast majority and the foundation of every server. If you stunt the growth of these players the later servers will rapidly become ghost towns and those who spend the bucks will not have anyone to war against. Think about that Evony. You need to be looking after the WHOLE community, not just a select few, because if the average players (not big spenders) out there cant grow, then the big spenders wont need to spend all their money on war ensigns, horns, corsolets and other late game items. They will be able to beat the average guys down without these products and your revenue and patronage will drop rapidly.
Fact is that Evony go on about fair play and not using Bugs as this would not be fair, yet have no problem with people buying prestige to win. Good luck with petition, but as long as Evony make money by not having medals drop, especially on the later servers, then petitions will not work. Not buying anything will eventually work, as they increase drop rate to generate interest.
phbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb, there's another one
I aggre its dumb to have it such a pain in the rear to get metals so u can advance ur title or rank. Challanging is one thing but almost impossible awhole nother story.
