Lets face facts here, Evony the great free game is first and foremost a money profiting business
...if they weren?t ,theyd have no reason to put up servers that is costing them
So the ?free server? idea is gone
Lets face some age2 facts ----some issues here i saw from earlier in the thread
- 1, levelling heros
- 2,troop building
- 3, npcs
- 4,server merges<colonise servers>
- 5,servers die out to fast
Arguements for facts above
1, levelling heros is neither hard nor a problem-it just takes time young padwon
2, the troop building speeds are fine, if they were any faster, servers wud die faster = less money for evony...ie. wont happen , and when ur on a dead server<i was>you have plenty of time to spare and wont complain about time then, these times are universal and everyone has to deal with it - make the most of them,servers will die and u will wish it wast over so fast
3,npcs u make will disappear,if u have trouble with someone in your area farming them ?either move or take them out, its part of the game
4,server mergers for the old servers are possible in a sacrifice sort of way-from how i see it,but it probably wont happen, but ill show u my train of thought anyway
<how to achive server mergers>
A, delete all inactives,
they take up way to much room ?either done by hosts mailing evony staff inactives in there alliances or evony team put in a if inactive since XX/XX/XXXX delete feature r sumting like that
B,<the hard point> have members on the servers involved give up there HC
Now this is by far the hardest point, but lets face it, on a dead server, what good is a HC to you, and really they have paid themselves off at this point between drafts etc<maybe give up HHs........you`ll see why
C, have the people moved to a new server-one without HCs-or evony will just shoot themselves in the foot again when that server dies,besides, with peoples troop counts they`d be gone in a day-this makes it funner coz its REAL PvP ,who cud argue that that wudnt be fun/entertaining?
The HH roster on each server wud be scattered like they are on a new server<that is if everyone gave up there HHs-sure after day1 they wud all be gone ?but think of the amount of Advance ports bought, evony wud make a killer- ----and its all part of the new server buzz
But besides all that if u follow my plan what have you done?
Lost ur HCs/HHs and gained a new server thats easily maintained ,has greater wars, and best of all, is ACTIVE, its new so it will last for quite a bit of time-
some may think its not worth giving up there HCs, but really what good is having them now and what enjoyment do you get on dead servers?
All evony has to do is create a new server and move normal cities of known actives over in layman terms anyway that is
...but to get back on track to the problems above
5, servers die out to fast...well yes they do, but 2 main reasons i found for that is...
1, COIN No.1 ?some alliances are nothing but coiners and they start to dominate ,killing off the smaller alliances, -fair enough, thats the aim of the game,
but the problem is not because there coiners, but because every other big alliances wants to be friendly with them
-in the server im on now, 9 of the top 10 are friendly, and yet, people complain servers are dead?
If people would stop trying to save there alliances skin with diplomacy, there would be some great wars and stable servers instead of 1200+ players vs 100 type servers
2, MEDALS ...ah yes the good old debate, but lets try a new angle
Many free players leave because some prinzessain ports his 10 troop building cities in beside your 3<4 if ur lucky to have reached baron> and well, what chance have you really? Unless u have a good alliance to save you
But think, at an early stage ...from medal FARMING<not winging> u could get enough medals to reach a decent enough title and had maybe 5 or 6 cities pumping out troops instead of 2 or 3
Now u might hold up better and lets face it, you have a better chance of saving ur ar$e and staying active in the server
Many will debate that you aren?t farming enough as it is, but i myself farm 100 vallys a day in hope of finding an elusive rose medal, but for the past month and a bit, i have only found 1- i am a baronette as it stands and will be for the forseable future, , i would love to farm 10,000 valleys a day but work, collage and RL calls ,so increasing the amount of valleys i farm is not going to be able to happen
So really age 2 has 2 problems i can see,most of the rest we cud live with
1, server merges- possible with a bit of sacrifice from the players
2, medal drop rate-was changed before, can be changed again
Both solutions to those two problems are cheap and easy in a short amount of time and will generate a greater profit to evony with time
Spelling/grammer cud have been better but i hope the points i made out are clear enough
now go
