Thread: So whats going to happen?

  1. #1

    Default So whats going to happen?

    So.. with all servers being offline, what is going to happen?

    Lots of troops in AGE I went into refugee, and on NA39 they lost a capital city due to it. This is so unfair. I know it wasnt Evonys fault it went down but something should be done about it.

    Somebody in my alliance lost 15bil and 30-40bil gold along with the troops defending the city, due to the fact he could not truce to protect them overnight as the site was down. He was not able to be online when the site came back online.

    I suggest the servers get rolled back, its the only reasonable and fair suggestion. A silly compensation package isnt going to do it for me personally.

    You're saying your troops were eating food when the servers were offline? That shouldn't happen. Also how did you lose a city while the server was offline? Are you sure the server didn't come online again and these things happened before you logged in?

    Everybody is saying that food was being consumed whilst the site was down (such as on the official evony facebook page.) Somebody in my alliance cliams to have lost 5 billion food.

    Apparently the capital city on NA39 was taken whilst the site was down.

    No, my friends troops where killed and the resource was plundered once the site came back online - as he couldnt truce before he went to work to protect them as the site was down.

    They did eat food, and we know that for a fact. Perhaps you should double check what was actually going on.

    Dawn, I would like a honest reply as to whether something is actually going to be done surrounding the issues that have occured due to the outage.

    I can confirm that food was being consumed on ss61 and some players even suffered refuge.

    I don't play the game anymore but still regularly talk to my old comrades.

    Thanks to Infinitus for the epic B'day pressie!

    I think I speak for us all when I say we would like some free stuff.

    I dont want free stuff but evony needs to come out and say wtf is going on. Theyve been hacked. Theyve had serious server issues and now complete server outages and they dont even know whay is going on when these issues happen.

    They ban people for false reasons and when proven innoce t they just change the reason to something full of bs.

    I'm having a really hard time justifying spending anything when I have to be worried about not even being able to access a server or beong banned because I'm a good player.

    Dawn, that's exactly what we are saying. At least half the people in my alliance lost troops due to refuge, or wall defs, or techs, or builds, or I actually lost resources considering I should have had more built up in the time the server was down, that is actually missing. Evony seriously needs to offer something to fix this. If you think it didn't happen or that everyone is just going to forget about it, they aren't. People are seriously peeved, log into any server and you can instantly see it in World Chat.

    While I can't say for absolute certainty that troops were eating food, what I can say is that I ended up losing 12 hours worth of a vesta! I had used a vesta roughly 1am the day before, and sure enough, when the system came back online, that vesta still ended at 1am the day of the outage.

    Given the cost of the vestas, that's 12 hours I would have been farming/attacking that I lost because of the outage. Like others, outages happen and we don't blame evony for that. But, we do find the results of that outage unacceptable. The servers should have been rolled back to the last maintenance backup, IMHO, and I would have suggested giving folks free food for at least the day.

    Many people play the game around the world. And everyone has different time slots they have to be able to play. Being offline for 12 hours meant many people suffered unfairly for the outage, as they weren't able to process HNMs, manage food, farm for resources, or defend against attacks.

    We had a member get a city wiped, and nearly lost, because some people used the outage as an opportunity to launch a major attack the second they could get back online. With the extended outage experienced, many people either gave up waiting (without any knowledge of if/when the systems would be back, it was hard to get online), or experienced varying degrees of success in getting online once the systems were available again.

    Hopefully Evony will recognize that while we understand that you can't always prevent outages, you can take steps to ensure that fairness remains as a result of that outage.

    Time to stand up for the players for once Evony, and make sure you take care of your paying public...
