Suck it up and learn to live without the FB crutch.
    This made me smile, not heard you use this tone before and finally someone that agrees FB bonuses are BS...

    but because it IS part of the game and therefore meant to be used then what is wrong with asking evony to help replace that which was lost when THEIR game glitched ????

    EVONY AGEII NO NEED TO FARM
    HA!!!!!!!!!
    You do NOT need to farm in Evony2, not like you used to have to in Age 1. So you lost out on 2 days of free gifts, its GIFTS, its not earned, its not PAID for, its FREE GIFTS.

If you didn't get your resource buffs from valleys or your heros got broken you would all be crying would you not? Are not these established as part of the game? Get off your high horse about being a AgeI player and just respect that the game was broken and someone wants to have restitution for it.
    No one is getting on high horse that ive seen, we are all just expressing how we see each side of the game. FB bonuses in my opinion make Age2 suck, if people have become so dependant on free gifts, whats the point of playing.

    Its a war game, its a game where you should be required to put some personal effort into growing and becoming a top player. FB to me is like having a silver spoon and being hand fed. You say if our resources from valleys was broken or our heros, this is no way the same as FB being down, you too get resources from valleys and have heros you would be upset if you lost, FB IS A BONUS, its not a required part of the game.

    How many times have servers went down and Age1 players actually LOSE troops cause of it to refuge, but nothing was done for us? So why should Evony do anything cause you lost FREE GIFTS for two days? Sorry if i ranted, was not my intent.

    you still need to get the food to move your troops and to build new ones. Yes Age is is by leaps and bound not as farming intensive but its still necessary and how are you to gain medals without it?(aside from buying them)

    Its the game. Its an aspect of ageII. No one HAS to do it just like in age one you don't HAVE to farm. If you want to get everything out of the game you might want to consider it though. It isnt everything I'd hope for, most games never are, but if it sucks what keeps bringing AgeI players in to the AgeII discussion for anything more then to say "IMHO this game sucks and ageI got it right"

    Its a war game? That is true but almost laughable by anyone who plays on the first 19 servers to be released. No attack button! War is almost impossible (Much to my dismay and one of the best reasons for any AgeI player to hate on AgeII) As for FB it really is because again I point out, FB is BUILT in to the game. Its not necessary but its still important to gameplay. again you don't HAVE to farm or raid other players in ageI but where will you be if you don't? You're army isn't gonna be as big or as powerful as the guy next to you who is doing these things.

    This kind of goes back the the intent of my first post. Yep, It sucks huge money balls and all he wants is restitution just as many ageI players clamor for when the system they expect to be in place breaks. Drop the free gifts thing because its really irrelevant, most ageII players know ageI hates that ageII gets more 20k stone spins a day they then do.

    The pure and simple fact is something was broken and the product was not as advertised, which by typical(honorable?) business practices would dictate some type of compensation to the injured party. Will anything come of it? With the track record I've seen... this thread is about all one can expect.

    I don't know why some people insist on comparing the upkeep of troops in age1 to age2, it really is not relevant what-so-ever, if you play age2 your competing with other age2 players, and anyone that thinks b/c the upkeep in age2 is lower it's somehow easier then age1 is beyond stupid..... If players from age2 were somehow competing with age1 players then yes you could make that comparison, but there not, lower upkeep just means people keep bigger army's ....... It's not the same game and is really not relevant thats the bottom line.

    I would honestly go as far to say player have it much worse on age2 as far as competing with the "hardcore" players (IE: Kids with not jobs, living in there parents basement) b/c you can't make fields of NPC's, and it goes w/o saying that there are far less NPC's to farm in age2. b/c of this last point I just made I think age1 is far easier then age2, with the exception of the carebare servers (NA1-19), clearly those servers are on easymode.
