Thread: Evony, the official flat filling game

  1. #1

    Default Evony, the official flat filling game

    I admit I am bad. I love to wage war and we all know that is not the purpose of the game, so when I planned to go to war today, Evony did everything in their power to prevent me from doing that. They deleted npc's again, 15 to 35 percent of all states, so the next ten days I'm occupied with flipping flats/restoring farms and don't have time to attack people.

    Thanks Evony for reminding me what the real purpose of the game is, how could I forget that? I'll be meek and won't go to war for the next ten days and be busy restoring farms, just as you prefer.

    You forgot the other main part of the game...

    watching the clock spin cause the lag is so bad.

    so if u can fill the flats in a timely fashion - all power to u.

    NOPE. I lost many that are farmed multiple times every day.... so much for evony saying they only clear unused npc's

    btw. in amongst all the npc clearing why couldnt they have shifted the inactives.

    Default Sarcasm

    Why don't they just clear all the npc's at once? Then the big hitters (read as botters, lol) can just port in and wipe everyone else out. No one will have troops to feed, therefore no need to farm. Excuse the sarcasm, but when this happens randomly and you're not on when maintenance is over it makes it way too easy to get wiped out, no matter what defense you have. I can live with someone capping an npc within range and taking my troops and res out. But to just randomly open up flats? I get that the point is to try and increase the attacking. But for those of us legit players (read non-botters) it just plain s*cks. Not a good move, imho. Would Evony rather get 100 people spending $1000 a month, or 10,000 people spending $30 a month? Maybe they think they will get both by clearing the npc's randomly, who knows.

    You didn't say whether all your farming fields had been cleared if that is so another BOO to Evony.

    That said, if they didn't clear all your farms but cleared spaces around your cities then it would stand to reason the same would be true of your red flags. Ergo you have your war game.

    Thanks to Infinitus for the epic B'day pressie!

    sometimes its a little more random than i like lol...just get done building a crap load of lvl 10's only to wake up the next day to find lvl 1 flats where the 10's were...that kinda bites a little bit , granted it was only 20 lvl 10's but that tallies out to 200k of each resource wasted...could have put all that into a good start on another city , since all i can do is build things atm because I have to fill all the flats around me so i can feed whats left of my troops...unless the ploy is to get us to spend coin on resources....hmmm

    of course you could actually be brave and port around to find your enemy rather than taking the cowardly way out and filling entire states by flipping flats or using filler accounts

    so you're saying you can't go to war because there'll be open flats near people you were going to attack and evony is trying to prevent you from attacking people by making it easier to get close to them? ya that's rough...
