Thread: The game is rigged.....

    My biggest confusion on the debate of farming is, why people even do it?

    I have a fortifacation in walls, Archers working in Barracks, an Upgrade and a research under way. When they are completed, assuming I am not plundered, I will start the next set. My city isn't the greatest city in Evony, not by a long shot and it supports itself.

    Sure I could horde gold and lumber and any number of other things but why?

    Speed ups cost $15 for 24 hrs worth. $15 a day? To be a day ahead of the guy beside me? I really don't think so. It's essentially something to do. There is no need to farm. A city that is set up right will support it's own time restrictions.

    QQ you crybabies! Let me get this straight... I work hard... and make money so I can have a nice car. You on the other hand sit on your lazy BUTT, don't work, don't do crap and you expcect to have the same nice car I have? Since When does Evony let Lazy Liberals play this game!? Bottom line, you get what you pay for! You pay money to expect results. If you dont pay, dont expect the same results. They need to set up a server fo the crybabies, the lazy and the non payer. That way it might fix all the lag in the game for the people who do. Come to Friesland and give me your coords you cry baby!

    You sir, are a moron.

    On a lighter note, while buying a few coins here and there will help you expand faster, there's no need for it. Just like any other game of this type, it takes time, patience and good planning to get anywhere. The farming of barbarian cities is being nerfed soon anyway, so that will no longer be an advantage.

    Let me guess: Free Republic, right? The location is a clue.

    BTW: "don't" forget to spell check.

    OBTW: at least Evony let's this hard-working liberal play.

    Okay, okay; I'll take rep points if you like my answer. If you laugh at my answer, though, I demand them!

    The problem with the game in not about some people having more...being better...or being stronger. That is the case in every game ever made. The problem is that the average, player who is not obsessed with the game but who still has something to contribute to the game simply gets in the way, they get frustrated and leave. Yet they like the game, would like to stay but cannot afford to spend real dollars on the game.

    In 3 or 4 months the game will be back down to 3 or 4 servers because all but the coiners will quit playing. Evony will have a nice lil niche game, lay off all those programers they hired and everyone will be happy.

    It is after all a free game and no one HAS to play it.

    Which made me have an idea.

    Free Servers and Coin Servers. If you want to buy coins you have to be on a coin server. If you want to not buy coins then you have to choose a free server. Once on the free server you could transfer to a coin server but once on a coin server you cannot transfer to a free server. On the free server you have to submit to a bit of advertising. Coin servers are advertising free. Just ideas.

    The REAL problem in free to play games, is that the midrange and lower players want to win, but not lose. This is a GAME!!!! In a game there are winners and lossers. The winners are more experienced, prepaired, and simply do what it takes to win. The lossers are those who are new, unprepaired, and don't use the built in game mechanics to make themselves stronger. They then complain about what the top players use to win, even though they have broken no rules, and since midrange and lower players are in the majority, the devs listen and penalize the advanced players for simply playing the game the best way possible. Instead of complaining about the tactics advanced players use, why don't you just start using the same tactics to break out of the middle of the pack. Remember, while advanced players may be able to build their villages faster, we all max out at 10 cities. You can't get any stronger than that.

    There is a difference between being "rigged" and player abusing an exploit. Blame the players not the game or its design. I'm sure this issue will be addressed.
