Thread: Cheating, Exploitation, and Poor Programming

    Default Cheating, Exploitation, and Poor Programming

    I have been plenty feed up with the recent stealth changes that effect Evony. I've been disappointed in the disregard the developers and moderators show to the community, and I've been the most disappointed on the player base's general lack of respect for each other with the recent "Cheat" fix.

    Players did nothing that should be classified as "cheating" by any definition of the term. They didn't circumvent the system, they didn't use codes to modify their status, they didn't even find a hidden /command the developers get to use for their own enjoyment... they attacked a Barbarian City with a series of sacrificial lambs and in doing so were granted exorbitant amounts of prestige. The result of terrible programming in an obvious over site on the part of the developers has been reclassified as "evil" by a crew that likely made invincible dragons when they were DM in their own D&D games as a hissy fit because "Zoltron" ate the last handful of Cheetos.

    I wasn't directly effected by this "prestige" change. I wasn't even aware of the now labeled "exploit" until it just appeared. I am a standard player, who at one time was confident enough to give money to the Evony cause not for game coins, but to donate to their vision of a fun and fantastic game. As time moves on I lose more and more confidence in not only their vision, but their SOP on courtesy and understanding to their own player base. Whether I quit or not doesn't matter in the long run, the more people they alienate with unreasonable punishments that fail to PROVE or CORRECT anything will be the nail in their own coffin.

    Regards,
    SMD

    With a username like that and this as your first post (at least with that username, I'm pretty sure it isn't your first) I'm sure everyone will take you seriously.

    It was definately an exploit. What people are talking about being nerfed would be more of an Honor Exploit and now I added that to my website because it still works.

    They're talking about an actual prestige Exploit where you can gain 20K prestige in an hour. I had just posted it on my site a few days ago in the Exploits section. I only have like a dozen members on that site because it's not even out of Beta phase yet but the Evony team must be one of those Members. I'm pretty mad because I just realized yesterday that the access settings for that part of the forum were wrong and people could access them without proper clearance. I had intended that someone who has submitted at least one good addition to the forum could gain access to that area. Instead Evony exploited the fact that my website was set up incorrectly. I don't really want my prestige back but I would ask that you never log into my website again.
