I am sure like most of you I am completely baffled as to where this game
is headed. When I joined a month ago it seemed pretty straightforward,
but with all the recent changes how will anyone be able to win any sieges.
I do not currently have a massive army, but what difference does it make
when the people that have them can get wiped out so easily. It seems
like the only possible thing to do is sit in my cities and grow fat. Unless
you attack valleys there is not any field army vs army battles to engage in.
If the developers want to create a "Sim City" type clone game they need
to give us some eye candy to make it worthwhile. If they want to keep
the weaker players without the ability to use strategy in the game they
should create some combat options for the stronger players to keep them
interested in the game. Possibly like the ability to attack player cities
that give them the option to come out and fight in the field or lose
resources and/or prestige. Then you can have all kind of options for
what happens to the loser of the battle. Barring some type of changes
from Evony I do not see why anyone would keep playing this game.
