    That I haven't seen an answer on, nor have I had the chance to test out the new item, but I'd really like to know!

    Compliments of the wonderful Warsimi!

    I ask because as an owner of atlantis i'd rather keep that paticular city at 5 loy and force the enemy to fight my troops and still have the abilityto heal rather than have it plundered of all its gold and have no heal after the gates do open.

    well i personally like the gate crashers.... theres so many massive armys on ss60 that have trillions of res and they wont open for anything unless u have millions of trans headed at them, so we can never kill thier troops effectivly... now we can... if u dont want to open and let us kill you. we will open for you and do it. or lock them and farm you... people are bashing Nemesis for using them but we dont really give a damn. call us cheaters etc but we are simply making use of the items that we have spent thousands to get. if that makes us cheaters because we are richer then so be it. as long as all of these bufffs we have spent money on dont disappear after the 26th then all is good for us

    That's all Evony has done, they have attempted to add a little fun - something different - and what do they get from their customers for trying?

    This is not the end all be all, guys. These items are not that bad. It is not impossible to defend your city with open gates for an hour. And what if you're sleeping? Well, honestly, if you went to bed with closed gates you're just as likely to get robbed of all your resources and be woken up to a starving city. In fact, you'd stand a better chance with open gates.
    Not to mention that, but the broken gates item can actually be used to help yourself defend as well.
    The effects help assist against a defending bot because of the population reduction and the open gates. An attacking bot would find itself out of whack (timing wise) because of the extended march time. A bot has no programming for these effects. It's good.
    The hero start only cripples your hero by 10%. Unless you stack it three times, and I wouldn't count on getting one hero stacked 30% simple because for each $30 you randomly get one of the four devil effects available.
    "Lost in the Waste" won't help an attacking coiner, so no worries there either.

    The most interesting part of this reaction in my opinion is that this is only a 6 day event, yet many of you are acting as if gameplay is ruined forever. The company is trying to make a positive addition, a special occasion, for it's players and i'm honestly disgusted with how spoiled and entitled many of you sound, as if Evony should cater solely to the people who don't help support the game financially at all.
    Some of the reactions in this thread are ridiculous.


    Well said SBD ...who brought the whine and no cheese eh?

    I can understand the force gates open part. A lot of players just shut gates and never fight. But the thing that annoys me is the shutting gate part. I don't see how its fair that people can pay $30, shut your gates and take all your res for free, leaving your heroes to run and troops to starve. My main city has 30b food in it, I always open my gates when I got to sleep and go to work so people cant port in and take it for free. But now thats all gone. nice work evony, or should i say botony

    Evony should be enforcing their damn TOS rather than bringing in stupid new items that ruin gameplay.

    Force open isn't too pleasant either. Here's a scenario. One of those annoying spamming parasitic noobie alliances that every server has has a bunch of cities in a state where you have a troop city. They get the item and get all excited and force your gates open. You log on to find half your mechs dead because 10 of them that have neither the ability or troops to take you on normally have been scout bombing you from long range for an hour.

    I guess if you logged on you could cap a city and let them bomb rams, but it's still a waste and a load of unnecessary honour, and for what?

    Perhaps those that support this ridiculous item are the type of players for whom this sort of attack would be appealing.

    I'd be interested to know what 'defensive strategy' the evony guys think is reasonable and fair when you can't control your own gates.

    not to mention, being able to force an enemy's gates CLOSED is completely unrealistic

    ok the cons of the gate item

    4 of us ported in too a target each capping 1 npc thats 8 citys attacking

    after applying the item we attacked 1 wall killing wave 79 125k cart waves

    i now feal bad becouse the guy we did this too reset after loging 2h later and finding his insta balli hero limboed

    he had around 23 mil scouts 4 mil mech 7 mil arch + others cav sword and the like all of witch did nothing becouse we had gates closed

    i have 17 more of these broken gate items and will not use them again evony need to remove this item from the offer

    having seen first hand on how game ending this item is i feel it is a unfair item short of logging in and closing a players gates

    non coiners will suffer bad as many cant truce cant port and cant holiday and have there fun Defending not porting and hitting

    i hope evony see that this 1 item is very bad the rest do very little but this gate one is very bad

    ohh and bty 1h gate time close ? if i ant killed and emptyed a offline city inside 30 min i usely port on so think how fast we could enpty citys when we dont need to kill troops
