Thread: Where does all this money go?

    Default Where does all this money go?

    Evony has to have a TON of money. My question is what do they blow it on? I have not seen any improvments to the home page or graphics in the game for around 3 months now. There has not been an update on the front page forever. We are giving them all this money and they must not be putting it into the game at all. In the early stages it was exciting to see the new changes that would come. I would like to see better graphics and a better home page at least. With all the money they have it should be VERY easy to do.

    First of all, I'm gonna' rep you for this.

    I've been thinking the exact same thing for a while now, but I didn't really care enough to post it. Evony no doubt has to pay employees, pay to keep the site up, and pay for programming, among other things, but where does the figurative box of money labeled 'UPGRADES' go? Hm, makes me stroke my figurative beard.

    Because 100 servers are free.

    I'm not totally sure we all agree on how much it costs to keep a single server open. Anyone got any info on such a topic?

    can't be much considering how Evony kept adding them like they were a drug or something back during June/July. I mean it was like 10 servers per week.


    A man might not be able to move a mountain, yet he will accomplish nothing if he never tries.




    Well, I'm tired of these forums. Very little humor in them anymore. Adios all.

    Not necessarily, they might have just borrowed a boatload of money to get the game kickstarted.

    A shaky tactic at best, though. It's best to see if your players like the game before asking them to spend cash dollaz on it.

    Koops, they did not borrow any money to kickstart this game. No bank on the face of the earth would take the risk of loaning a company like Evony money, especially in the current worlds economy.

    I am not sure how much servers cost so I can't really say much on that matter, but the servers are not high quality that is for sure. Main point in this thread is they are not putting as much money into the game to keep it interesting and making it better.

    check with laywers. They might be able to tell you where the money is.
