    20 x $1,650.00 = $33,000.00 for 1 promo within a 1 week time period. Multiply that by how many servers? 40? 50? You are looking at over $1 million for one promo (and that is probably the low-end of what is made). A pretty nice little haul for a 1 week promo

    So yeah...if coining is dead I want to be the Grim Reaper.

    Well i don't think coining has stopped. might be slight decline then what use to be for few reason. One is many people going to newer servers are old players not new. and With all the new rules and changing of the game that evony pulls people just don't spend like they use to inless they going to be completely serious on that server. Thats not counting there was a guy that use to make heros and sell on new servers, which i think evony finally has stopped.

    As for how much between all servers WELL>>>>>> with the anti-captcha movement going on and many of the captcha servers and even people in non captcha server'd are participating of no spending till captcha is gone. acording inside evony sources there down 97% of sales this month.

    lol. not easy as you think, even if you are great with developing games, there are many areas you will also consider, such as game play.
    Every game encounters problem that were not planned such as bug that could take alot of time and money to fix without experience game testers.


    A friend I met here is planning to make a game for iphones, soo far it has been 2 years and he encounter 20 mental block... lol poor guy.

    I highly doubt that. 50 chests from 20 alliances per server is not much really.

    With 40 servers (not even counting age2!) that's 1.3 million.

    I don't think that is a bad monthly take for a free online game.

    Coining is certainly not dying on 158, all you need to do is watch the amulet spam in WC to see the same names popping up over and over.

    I got 108 chests from my alliance during the 1st 48 hours of s161. coining is not dead, at least one new servers anyway - as for captcha servers and the 'coin strikes' going on that's a different matter. Evony may be loosing some margin of profit because of the strikes but compared with what they get in the 1st week of a new server it's nothing.

    People are spending more wisely these days, you don't see people coining 1k heroes because it is way more profitable to coin for farming 5s in 1st 6hours and get prinzessin asap. heroes can be built relatively easily with a HHOM hero compared to the free method of farming the infamous illusive medals, rose in particular.

    108 in the first 48, that is a bit low, considering that your average players will spend atleast $60-$90 on their main so that is about 2-3 packages.
    So that is about roughly 34 players buying 3 packages.
    The reason for the high spending on the first week of the serves life is because, of the beginners packages with its 200,000 resources plus the lion and rose medal that almost garuantee a baronet title, an excellent purchase.

    Also let us not forget the hidden purchase, some players pretend to spend little when they actually spend alot.

    You are right that players have improved their building strategy and evolve their spending habbit to the cent; that what it normally take $60 to reach their goal, can now be done with less.

    So to sum it up, the older players will likely spend less due to experience, where as the new players will spend more due to lack of experience.
