Thread: SS50 - Halt the Server!!!!!

  1. Default

    From Evony's standpoint they made the game to be a certain way and we 'broke' it by changing the way we use their product. They don't seem to overly concerned with enforcing the ToS much anymore, if they did then there would be very few players left and the income would drop further than it already has. I can't see them wanting to bend to change things for us, even changing the npc's back to the much missed hourly refill and even if they did, players would not give up their many alts. Instead armies would grow larger and larger.

    We do need to compromise more to get what we want, and it has to a lot of people working together. Players have to agree, alliances, servers and even the evony staff needs to come on board. And even if you get all of them to agree to try it, people have to honor the commitment and not start running more alts again. I see players in wc who claim no one will fight or play with them. Scout reports with troops that eat 4b food an hour and they are upset no one will play. So they port in on people they know cannot do any damage and use an automated attack and then get upset when the player truces or ports.
    These players with massive cities don't fight each other, I don't know if its because they know that they would need to go back to rebuilding for a while or if they simply are not willing to risk losing something by playing an equally sized opponent. If more players were equally sized then maybe we could have battles again and people would be more willing to fight.

    The clock is going to eventually run out on us all as servers go dark. So our time to 'fix' this is finite. The three year mark is fast approaching for many of the merged servers, how many active players were there when you merged?
    How many were there a year ago? Six months ago?
    How many are there today?
    How many will be there in six months?

    @ Witchy

    Every single online game I have played have had issues with people finding work around. If they want a fair and balanced game they identify the issues fix it then enforce people who break it. As cush stated in the beginning they enforced a lot more then they do now. They no longer care. There are some die hard evony people but they are starting to dwindle. I am one of them. I have also started to play other online games, can't wait till the new FF.

    our time to 'fix' this is finite.

    It is not our responsibility to fix the game. It is our job to make suggestions, for them to listen and then act. We make suggestions but they don't act.

    Agreed, it is not our responsibility to fix the game. But we have all seen how much effort they are willing to put into the game lately. I am just saying that if we want changes we might have to be the ones that start making them.

    A merge would definitely be a good thing, a lot have quit over the last 12 months and any noobs are smashed instantly with the level of most of the older players. One guy levelled his hero 1000 lvls over night, now THAT I'd love to know how he did. A 4k hero now, crazy stuff!

    WOW 1k levels over night, that is amazing. I wonder how he did it, I bet he followed the ToS and got it legitimately.

    That was almost a good way to shut down a system that I proposed with the fact that it would fail in the introduction. Only problem is you completely ignored the fact that it was a two pronged solution. People wouldn't have alts when they return npcs to normal, and no that's not the nerf I want undone, because they would also start enforcing the rules as they did before.

    While thinking how this system would work, I also discovered another reason it would hurt Evony. Naturally, this system would have to be put on new servers, you wouldn't be able to apply this to already established servers. They would lose players outright that way. But as it is now, A LOT of people server hop. Pay their way to the top quickly, and leave when the new server comes out and everyone equalizes. Bots greatly increase the speed at which everyone gets to a level playing field, meaning those who like to be ahead of everyone are going to migrate sooner, spending more money on the next server. If Evony banned bots outright, player turnaround on new servers would decrease greatly, taking a very large portion out of their income.
