    [sigh] I wasn't trying to play the "comparison game". I was just trying to explain that Evony designed this game to give an advantage to coiners full stop. Age II have been incredibly lucky to the have FB gifts and up until now 20 ammies a day. Age I has none of that. As for treasure drops ask an Age I players when the last time a medal dropped for them seriously medal farming and they'll have to consult their 2011 diaries.

    As for instant troops heroes, well on newer Age I servers players who coin now can have their instant pult and treb heroes in less than a month. Well on their way with 10 cities building 200 mill an hr burn cities. Non coiners have to cross their fingers medal farming and hitting 10s constantly to get their titles and level up heroes. Trust me it takes months. Geddit.

    On the other hand hard work does pay off and there have been plenty on non coiners in both ages that have done well building their accounts up.

    while that is true on age 1 theres 2 major things age 1 players dont have to worry about spending cents on, energy drinks and gear. gear costs a good 4k cents if you coin it, if not youve to farm and with the drop rates it will take you a good year or more to complete the set, no exaggeration. ammies leveled the playing field against coiners with the chance for non coiners to win the materials required.

    two words.............

    DROP RATES

    by no means am i in favor of removing the amulets, but it has been done and we know how stubborn evony is..... soooooo in light of whats happened evony need to follow up this seriously dumb move with a patch that seriously increases hero gear material drop rates, currently the drop rate for materials is dumber than the developers that make changes to this game, we as players did ok though because we could obtain materials and lost amour scripts on the wheel of fortune (even though it still took a very very long time to get lv10 gear) now, all the players that do not coin are, as i like to say, foooooked!!
    Now let me take this chance to say that I am not a non-coiner, I coin. in the beggining of my server I farmed a lot and got a lot of scripts for gear, but never did i get materials for gear, i have gotten very little materials from farming. most of my hero gear materials was purchased, the other.....lets say 25-30% of it I got from the wheel. Now, let me put this into some kind of perspective.....no more fb amulets means no more non-coiners because they will not only have no chance to compete early server, they will have no chance to compete in the future of the server because the hope of eventually getting lv10 gear has be taken away. ok......we are left now with coiners, yes evony, i hear you say that you dont mind that at all......well let me tell you now that it will not take long for the coiners to disappear also. the game will be boring, it will get stagnant, the use of alliances will be void because generally a coiner can look after him/herself and there will be no "smaller" players to look after. OK......this is all stuff that probably only applies to newer servers, i think we can all agree that most players on older servers have all got lv10 gear.......wait!!!!! whats that you say......? new players still join older servers!!! indeed they do and that means that any hope of reigniting the fire on some of these older servers has now been dashed.

    I feel like i could go on for hours about this but i know very well from experience that the evony devs, even if they read this, will not care about the points i make.

    I shall finish in the hope that i can maybe grab their attention with this final plea......

    RAISE DROP RATES FOR MATERIALS AND GIVE THE PEOPLE THAT MAKE THIS GAME WORTH PLAYING A CHANCE TO PLAY!!!!!!

    Good luck with all that. Age I has been protesting an increase in medal drop rates in like, forever.

    And... there have been no spend protests as well (especially regarding captcha) guess what it changed nothing. I'm not trying to sound like the "voice of doom" but speaking as one that's seen it, got the tee shirt etc. I very much doubt it will change a darn thing.

    i've had about 6 pieces of material from 100's of lv10 valley hits (never seen a material drop anywhere else) for a non coiner who already farms LOTS for medals, it would be totally unrealistic to farm for materials. these people would need to spend the first 2 years of a server farming for medals/materials/lost amour scripts and then when they are at least in a position to think about taking on a big player they find that the server has died and they wasted 2 years of their life for nothing.....i cant see that happening which is why age2 will probably die. why will a coiner drop a bunch of cash on a new server if it does not have a player base to begin with?

    .......but i'm going on again lol *finds a wall to bang his head against*

    Yeah, they decided to disable commission quests for the purpose of taking care of a POTENTIAL exploit. Meaning that either that it has NOT been confirmed or it has NOT yet been exploited. In the second case a fix is needed before extensive exploitation.

    But it shouldn't be necessary to take the whole commission quest system to fix it, especially since the amulets on FB were just removed too.

    Does anybody actually read this?

    another good point.....not having the free fb amulets to get energy items seriously restricts PvP action and the ability to farm your way to strong hero gear, will take even longer to farm your way up the ladder when your hero's cant even march!

    not even coiners will start new servers if there are no players to attack. it would be a complete waste of money!

    more like "flow of free items"

    after reading a small portion of posts it seamed like i was reading the same thing again and again!

    Great job taking away Speech Texts! Been waiting for that one for ages now, thanks for making it happen now


    on another note.... The Amulet part is not cool.. I understand the reasons though. Making it close to impossible to compete in the game with out Facebook isn't a good thing, as fb only wants "real people" there and now there is suddenly a huge amount of people who's last name is Evony, lol


    Suggestion: Make it so that players can send each other these gifts (Amulets included) IN GAME instead of FB.
    I'm sure everyone would be very happy with that.

    i thought they let you send extra amulets from facebook on age2 to make up for the fact that the wheel is so much worse than age1....

    strat, res, tea, hero hunting, anabasis, res, strat, and yet another leather helm of robinhood... just how many leather helms does one player need? and if you're gonna load the wheel with strats could you please put more e&e? it really is the only one i want
