Thread: Rioting is uneeded lameness

  1. #1

    Default Rioting is uneeded lameness

    It's bad enough when you forget to adjust your tax rate at night. Your population drops to almost nothing and your production is utterly killed. But, they add this stupid riot feature which feels the necesity to also take away a % of all your resources on top of all the lost production. All for forgetting a tax rate. Stupid overkill feature.

    Actually, they put it there for a different purpose.

    You see. when someone kick your ass so badly your loyalty drop to zero. They put riot there to make it near impossible for you to recover.

    i dont think so. If your getting attacked over and over, odds are you don't have much resources left to lose in a riot. Unlike me losing 6.1 million food and 3.4 million gold in 1 city for forgetting to change tax rate.

    Why even run taxes at this day in age in Evony?

    Just go hit a npc.

    well, when you have the top population on the server, it's kind of a shame not to collect the taxes from. 70k gold/hr can add up nicely too.

    700k gold per 10h cycle is pretty weak and stupid imo

    go hit an npc

    Not nearly as stupid as trolling threads making enemies with stupid comments. Since when is maximizing your yield stupid, idiot?

    Just noticed the riots seems to happen like every hour, too. Just a pointless feature.

    This game has a pretty lenient system actually.

    And you won't get much sympathy if it was you who forgot to change the taxes back overnight. It's like the King who forgot he took all the peasant's wives and children and sent them to labor camp, the farmers' prize pigs, and liquidated the nobles' possessions all in a single night.

    Then he wakes up to expect that crowd of pitchfork and torch wielding people at his doorstep to be smiling and ready for a parade.

    interesting comparison. Sending a family purposefully to a labor camp and forgetting to adjust tax overnight. I just don't see the point of additional penalty on top of losing all your population/production. Isn't that enough with the effort needed to raise population/loyalty again? I needed to have a 2nd riot 1 hour after my 1st riot taking another 3+million gold/6million food? Just a completely overkill penalty. When you wiegh out the benefits to the penalty for forgetting, it's pretty lame. All for "forgetting" something small.

    I can go along somewhat that it is uneeded to use tax rate. But, that in itself just shows the game's deficiency. You can exploit npc farming to the extent gold production is a joke. But, that's not the point. The bottom line is... the additional penalty is just overkill. I guess they'd just prefer everyone admit the flaws in the system, camp npcs, and just never use tax rate.

    Since your skull is this thick it is useless trying to explain logic to you.

    So you deserve all that you bring upon you in your righteous rant of self-noobishnish

    you have been told to hit an npc for gold because it is the logical choice, like I said how can you justify 700k gold per 10 hours

    100% tax isnt worth the risk of server crashes or in your case o0ops i r forgot let me go make a thread about it
