    Kiss my ass... too little too late.. you have lost my confidence in your ability to want transparency and legitimate intercourse betwene game developer and game consumer.

    I spent over $100 for in game coins... only to get the shaft by the dev's and ignored...

    I an EXCEPTIONALLY agitated at the indifference and lack of care/concern by the game providers.

    Had you CARED at all.. you would have put up a test server and released notes about CHANGES prior to going live. Instead, you pass yet ANOTHER patch at 4am (when the majority of players in USA are sleeping) and then let us find out by continuing to play the game by the existing rules/normal game mechanics... only to find out that our ballista DIE when they used to be fine.

    You devs made this game what it is. You later revealed to us that we were members of a beta test, long after we all had assumed that we were 'LIVE' as your website and advertisements had declared... only to find out that we're forgotten and ignored... as you continue to put in stealth-nerf-patches and devalue and deflate the hard work that your STRONG player base has committed and invested in this game.

    So.... it is my personal and professionally opinion that the game is progressing AS INTENDED. There is no excuse as to why a professional game developer would not release notes on major game changes (such as changes to the game economy or game mechanics of combat) prior to sending those changes live onto the servers. This is as intended. The developers have expended more time and energy promoting the 'queen of evony' project.. than they have promoting real changes to game mechanics...

    Case in chief:

    Civony becomes Evony. The game participants were unaware that we were members of a beta test or unfinished project. Many of us had fallen in love with and supported the game by spending $$$ on it.

    At first, it was a novelty to think that we had been members of a beta test... then came the changes.. without input or prior knowledge.

    First came the medal nerf. We had to endure 10 days (give or take) of gameplay without ANY input from the dev staff. Gazza and Thor scrambled to try and appease the player base with promisses of “well, they're in a different time zone” or “we will here from them shortly on these changes, be patient...”

    Then came the 'Queen of Evony' blitz. A juvenile attempt to distract the player base with fanfair player pictures of scantily clad young women, prostrating themselves for the favor of all Evony in a high school prom queen fanfair publicity stunt.. all the while, the coders and the devs were pumping out nerfs to the game, knowingly adding them to the servers without warning or prior knowledge...

    The first nerf: medals. Followed by npc town refresh rates. The players who used this game dynamic to it's full potential became demonized and ignored by the devs and forum monkey-mods. This sealed the deal on any new player being able to compete or close the gap with players who had been on Evony since going “live” (which we all now know is bull$h1t).

    Then came this last nerf at 5am... the stealth patch which changed npc town defenses. It completed the evisceration of the player base who have supported evony since it was Civony... our armies decimated, unable to feed them.. and now our ballista wiped out without warning due to a stealth-nerf.

    I'm done.. I will revile in watching Evony dwindle and die out like so many other great games... games which began strong, and through greed and incompetent handling.. became utter garbage.

    Of course.. this reply will be moderated and deleted.. but I'll save it and repost it again and again until truth overcomes stupidity.

    Good bye Evony... this game once had potential to be awesome... and because of greed... the desire for the devs to sell overpriced game coins and items... this game has died...

    GG. Evony.
