Some thoughts on paying real money in this game
I am new to this game and have put some of my real money into it to advance more rapidly. I have seen a lot of posts where people are complaining about paying for things here or the price of them.
While I do agree that speaker etc. are a waste of money and vastly overpriced I do feel like there are some other ways of looking at purchases here.
For one I like the fact that I can purchase speed ups that I can use from time to time to reduce the ramp up of buildings etc. It drasticaly lowers the time investment to get a decent city going when you get to the higher levels of upgrades.
Also, think of how much money you would spend on a normal Xbox game or the like. It is easy to drop $50 on such a game and IMO Evony is just as enjoyable to me. So if I spend some money to get stuff I would otherwise have to wait for - not a biggie - I look at it as an enterntainment expense.
There is also the fact that Evony has to pay for server space, bandwidth, development etc. These things are not cheap and I feel like the operators are doing a decent job. So, asking for an investment at some point from the players actually makes the experience better for everyone. Think of things like public radio. You can listen for free, but if you listen a lot and enjoy the content you actually have a responsibility to support it at some point and in some way.
Lastly, for those out there who just can't stomach the though of paying for it - DONT! It is possible to play this game for free and if you have to wait longer or end up being weaker as a result so be it. That is the way the world works. Either pay to play at some point or wait it out and have it for free.
Just my thoughts - have a nice one.
buying coins for different server
I am trying to purchase coins for a game I started on server 1 but so far I am only able to purchase coins for server 5 (this was the server I originally started on) when trying to purchase when logged into server one I get a notice that I must be logged into the game to purchase coins I only get this if I try to purchase coins on a server other than the original one I started on, I am very confused any help would be appreciated. :confused:
