Thread: A solution to the "no attack" problem in Age 2

  1. #1

    Default A solution to the "no attack" problem in Age 2

    Start off every city with a moat (you know those deep trenches that surround a castle and are filled with water) With the moat in place a player cannot attack... and if they try to once the troops reach the city the turn around before attacking... and add some sort of graphic indicating a city has a moat to prevent wasted attacks. A player can fill in the moat of an enemy. This could take like 6 hours to complete and opposing player could prevent this buy utilizing resources in some way (much like building a new city a player not wishing to loose their moat could reinforce it for a cost) At any time a player can choose to demolish their moat if they choose to engage in battle with other players. They can also rebuild it for a certain cost and a build time of like 24 hours

    P.S. Evony, I'm available for game developement consoltation anytime...lol

    This is what beginners protection is for, and rebuilding the mote is the same as truce.

    correct, but unlike standard BP there would be upkeep involved in keeping it, thus a player would have to weigh the pros and cons and decide if it was worth keeping. Also player A can destroy player B's moat if player B is not active enough. If player B is not happy his moat is destroyed he can rebuild (truce) with a cost of a 24 hour build time.. and of course colinization could still stay in Age 2

    LOL.. heck if I know.. If evony ever did something like this though, I would think players would be able to just to please farmers.. Though if it were my game I would say no attacking NPC.. build a second city with no moat to farm if you like, but it's open to attack by other players.. by the way if no march on moted cities this could solve the problem for all the pansies wanting to keep their main city safe.. build it up nice and pretty and put a mote around it, of course you be colonized on your main and you can hardly feed troops because you can't farm with the mote.. but hey you get to keep the pretty city

    There's already a much simpler solution: don't play Age II.


    And attacking in Age II isn't broken: it's working as intended.
    But....the eternal ray of sunshine REALLY wanted to see you, so I helped brighten your day by removing the city from around you! ^.^

    I understand that, but there are several reasons I personally would like to see it in Age II..

    First and number one reason is, I can access Age II on my cell phone, but not Age I, I don't know what happened because I used to be able to play Age I on it..
    Second reason is, I think Evony could make more money with the attack feature in Age II.. more money equals better service (not saying it's that bad now) More time to devote to game development and improvement.
    Final reason is.. My wife might actually play too on Age II and it would be nice for me..

    Now I realize two of my three reasons are biased, but they are my reasons and I am sure others have their reasons, so please don't pass it off with "just don't play it then"

    Sorry, but no, "then don't play Age II" is valid as there is Age I where they can do just that. Age II is geared towards fighting over the historic cities right now meaning there is attacking in the game, they just made it so you can only attack the historics on the current Age II servers.

    If the Age I players hadn't basically demanded keeping Age I servers they might have made attacking an option, but they did giving Evony an opportunity to do this.

    your solution doesn't work for me because

    I want to play in Age II, and I want to plunder players in Age II. I don't mind colonizing cause it's fun to draft peoples troops, but I'd also like to outright attack players and take their resources no questions asked.

    Well I doubt that you'll ever see that happen.. at least with this option though you could plunder players who also wanted to plunder players.. and from what I can see on the forums that would be A LOT OF PLAYERS
