    Default Is Evony competitive yet?

    I have not been around for a while and have a few Age II questions:

    1. Are people still account sharing all of the important HC's and Atlantis?

    2. Are players still allowed to pack limitless troops in a city?

    3. Does upgrading to a 15 star set still require the same amount of gems as it did 1 year ago? Is the failure rate still as high?

    4. Are there still limited numbers of Historic Heros so that every play can't get at least one?

    5. Do the star sets still offer the same bonuses as they did 1 year ago (i.e. life bonus, etc..)?

    6. Can a 15 star set player who spends $5k month still horde 50 million archers, 1 million pults, 1 million rams, 5 million phract, 100 million warriors and other insane numbers into a city with a 15 star set HH defending and be ubeatable forever?

    7. Has anything happened to make the game more competitive PvP wise as if ONE players vs ONE player battled, one spending $20,000 the other spending $500 and the $500 player never being able to come close to winning?

    8. Can you still defend a city that has zero troops in it by comforting/speech texting around the clock on a shared account?

    They finally unbanned you? Did you get your age 2 account unbanned or are you still banned for multiaccounting?


    Why bother posting this topic? You already know the answers. Or, are you looking for more material to whine about on your youtube page? *snicker*

    thats far from unbeatable, in fact thats just plain idiotic of whoever does that. that cannot be fun hoarding like that and if youre that kinda player, youre essentially a sitting duck waiting to be wiped. if youve even a half decent alliance you should be able to bring that down relatively easily

    battle mechanics knowlege and skill play a huge role here. money does not make you a good player. far from it. im far from a big spender but ive pwned thiose whove spent far more and had far better gear than me

    as for everything youve mentioned, absolutely nothing has changed, aether1 will be released in a week or sos time. lets see what that involves.

    Yes. But several are getting lost in PvP still. It takes time and luck.

    Yes. This is by design for Age II with no rioting.

    I see a lot more 15 sets across the servers. I think last I looked there were 27 on NA17. 20 of those came December 2011 or later. I don't think they will admit to changing the odds, but it does appear easier.

    Yes, still limited. But everyone who plays can get one, just not at the same time.

    Yes, they appear to be working the same with regards to life/leadership bonus.

    The game is as competitive as the two players make it. It always has been this way and always will be regardless of what is spent on the game.

    Yes, regardless of shared account, you can hold a city without any troops. This is also by design.

    1) Yep, 16s are impossible to take because of account sharing/botting.

    2) Yeah, i don't think this deviates from the intention of the game. The point is to have troops, i much rather go against a city with a lot of troops, then a city with no troops that just close gates and comforts. The point is to fight, remember one person can be on defense (Yeah they can reinforce, but only 10 spots), multiple people can port on one city, so i think on that aspect its pretty fair.

    3) I am not sure on this one, i wasn't huge into stars a year back. We have three players with a 15 suit in my alliance on 38, one person spent a lot of money for it, the other got it pretty easily. Its just all random luck.

    4) Still same amount of historical heroes.

    5) There is still a life bonus on 5,9,12,14,15. That has not changed.

    6) Yes, but there is no such thing as unbeatable. Every city can be broke, it just takes the knowledge and teamwork to do so. Plus, unless the server is pretty old, i do not see those numbers being an issue.

    7) Nothing has changed in that aspect, but really i don't see anything that really gives a player an advantage other than star set. A good player can spend $500, gets level 10 gear, farm gems and stay pretty competitive with players that spend much more. I have been playing on 38 for around 2 months, i have spent $300 for gear, haven't spent a dime on gems, and i almost have a 13 set. I have seen other players that have spent around the same and are halfway to a 15 set. Its very doable, just takes much more work.

    8) Yes, this part of the game drives me crazy. Its fine if they bot, bots can be beat, just takes a lot of work and teamwork. I am also fine with account sharing, because at some point someone will miss their shift or not get enough resources to comfort. I really hate the warehouse crap so that they can never run out of resources and either bot/account share so they never lose a city. This seriously takes all the fun out of the game.
