    I agree totally, it is so unfriendly to noobs its out of control (of course there are some exceptions thanks to people like Bickyz but they are few).

    Like many others said, an Advance Teleporter should be given in the newbie package. This would help A LOT! I have personally used 3 teleporters so far to end in a similar situation to the one I was trying to run away.

    The other thing, JoeCool I totally agree with your Noob Island idea. That should definitely get done or something similar.

    No-one's saying that the game shouldn't be hard -- only that it should start easy and get harder, and that at the moment it gets much too hard much too soon for many people. It didn't happen to me, but that was partly luck and partly because I was on server 6.

    The present system effectively punishes those who don't sit at their computers playing the game constantly so that they're strong enough when Beginners' Protection expires.

    MMO stands for Massive Multiplayer Online. Massive meaning large, multiplayer meaning with other people, and online meaning on the internet. I believe Evony, a browser based game (requires internet), you interact with other people (multiplayer) and there is an increasing number of players, as evident in the 9 servers we have now. Fail post is fail.

    Since I made my original post. AFter 40 straight hours of round the clock attacks by hardcore players determined to destroy me and my friends. They have succeeded. I will be leaving Evony as well.

    The game is destined to fail. Alliance mates are quitting faster then I can encourage them to stay.

    My allies that I carefully nutured to form an alliance have all run off to start new alliances of server 6 and 7 and 8 and 9, leaving me to hold a bag full of Sheet.

    See ya. And YES you can have my stuff. It was free.

    Of course, he is very much correct. The game overly rewards those that are excessively aggressive and hardcore. The rampup in difficulty needs to be much greater. There needs to be some kind of bashing rule (cannot attack a city or player more than X times a day), some kind of daily charge for attacking (attacking requires 3 diplomatic points, ex), penalties for attacking players that aren't on the same tier as you (loss of honor).

    Some of those should be mitigated by declaring war on another alliance, allowing free attacking against that alliance's players.

    The other thing that really needs to be instituted is that attacks should actually take some time. It is completely brainless that an 18 round attack is over in 1 second. It should take hours for multi-round attacks to complete, allowing time for reinforcements to arrive, retreating, etc.

    These changes would improve the flavor and interest of evony.

    Follow up. I have left my duties as head of the Alliance ~DOOM~. I have abandoned my two cities and my third city I teleported away, set rates to zero and taxes to 100. No one will farm it.

    Congrats Evony. My entire alliance was quitting or talking about quitting over the continual pounding by people who had battering rams 3 days after the server started.

    Good game in principal but flawed thru and thru.

    And YES..........YOU CAN HAVE MY STUFF....IT WAS FREE.

    have a specialized alliance - and we talke care of each other. but also we try to make friends with the other alliances to band against bullies and never take advantage of someone. If there is someone who does not meet the parameters to join our alliance we make them a friend and watch them anyway.

    Being a war game does not mean there must be a lack of civility.

    Bullies can ruin the experience but we can band together and stand up to them

    You know. Thats what I thought to about banding together. I was a part of an alliance that had about 20 other alliances.. many in the top 20.

    Around our position we had many alllaince mates. But guess what. Several letters asking for help netted me NOT A SINGLE response.

    Interesting. I wonder why. So I go over to server 7 and server 8 and server 9 and what do I find? Yeah all those alliance mates playing over there on new servers.

    I understand the need to expand. I dont begrudge the pounding. I dont begrudge the war. Heck it was fun.

    WHAT i do begrudge is not being able to SLEEP. I could have withstood these bullies from now to Christmas. But not without being able to SLEEP.

    Buh bye.
