    Nobody, and I mean NOBODY other than the Evony staff, values 100 speakers at $24. Point being, I dont care what the 'value' is relative to the in shop prices. What is the REAL value?

    Speakers: no value outside Hosts/Vice-Hosts for sending mass messages. (Which SHOULD be free anyway and shame on you for it NOT being free to them.)

    20k ea resource....that is less than 1 minutes production for me. Meaningless.

    Beginners Guidelines--No value after a player has been in game for more than 2 weeks or so.

    Primary Guidelines: VERY limited value.

    Cross/Rose/Lion Medals--No value to me. I need 1 Wisdom for my next title promotion.

    Wisdom Medal---Limited value, in that I need only 1.

    Freedom Medal---Limited Value.

    Napoleans Diary--Limited Value. Only 1? Seriously limited value.

    Ms Script...The ONLY item in the package, of any real value to every player.


    Evony values the package at $50 or 500 cents. I value it at $5...tops. Not gonna spend $30 (300 cents) to buy items worth maybe $8, to get 'free' $5 worth of items. I've said before and I'll say it again...your in game currency exchange for real money, is light by a factor of 5. $50 should not buy 500 cents...it should buy 2500 cents; WITH the in store pricing being exactly what they are now. Until that happens; I'll play for free.

    that's pretty close there. i would actually say that their pricing ratio is off by a factor of 10. so when i saw they were giving away "$80 worth of stuff" for $30, it actually sounded to me as if they were saying "we're giving you $3 worth of stuff for your $30, and we'll give you another $5 of stuff free!" ridiculous.

    there is nothing more disappointing than getting another Speaker Package, Anabasis, or National Flag from the square wheel, as if its more than just clutter. it's like having the springy snake pop up in your face out of the can...

    Default dont look a gift horse in the mouth

    free is free

    if you were gonna spend the money then you get a lil bonus thrown in

    now heres where it gets bad for me... if they thought they could increase sales in order to accomplish something then i really think they should sweeten the package

    i mean honostly it is like you guys are opening a bank account and depositing 200bucks in order to get a free toaster

    if you want more scripts then buy them if you cant buy them then wait who knows you may get lucky on the wheel someday

    as for the package i am pretty much unimpressed by it

    it will not motivate me to spend any more money then i already have
    so if they are looking at this as a way of motivating people they should have including something a little juicier like maybe an excaliber or something

    i can honostly say i have never gotten one and i prolly wouldnt buy one but if i was given one for free i definetly wouldnt complain

    the same goes for the other items that work over a time period they are ll good and i dont know anyone who complain about getting them

    and im a host so i actually use speakers for mass mailing messages so im not mad your including them its just dont think that they will be a big motivation for anyone to spend money

    then again if you offering the deal out of the kindness of your hearts i feel sorry about all the negative aproar this is causing and i think i understand why people are upset it doesnt feel like we are being listened to

    i have been active in the ideas forum for a while now your feedback is minimal at best... but i digress...

    I don't see how anyone can get upset about this. No one is making you spend your money on it. If someone is already going to spend 30 bucks then I'm sure they're happy about getting the free stuff.
