Thread: A game for the few only

    Default A game for the few only

    Evony creators recently boasted their 10 millionth player. In reality there are only a few thousand players who are actually playing. Most players register and never play. Just look at the map it is mainly made up of idle empty castles.
    Why is it like this? it is like this because the game is played as i said by the few thousand who happened to register and play first, they have built up Alliances which bully and eliminate any new player in their reach.
    The game itself is quite enjoyable and i was initially impressed with it but no new player however good they are have a chance to just play, they either have to become pawns in the few's game and join their alliance or get attacked until they cannot play any longer.
    If the creators of Evony really want a successful game with millions of "active" players they ought to introduce a rule where a stronger alliance cannot attack a weaker alliance unless they attack them first. After all the aim of the game is to make money right? and millions of active players can only generate more money.
    What do you say Evony creators?
    Anyone have any views on this?

    Fail.

    If you're tired of being 'bullied', start on a new server.

    Wow, sounds like you like unequal rights. Alliances should be able to attack anyone they want.

    Well they did say their "10 millionth Active player, you can check yourself,
    but anyways noob farming is a big problem, I got attacked 10 times the night I came out of protection 6 months ago, something needsto be done about this, this thread should go into the suggestion box

    Well equal rights means others decide when someones game is over. Hence the title of this post, a game for the few. Even there are 10 million active players its still only a game for the few in my opinion.

    omg, twinzzz. Hello, ladies =)

    on topic: mmm, nice topic 0.o

    cheers alll an have a good day

    last edit(contains my 2 cents): there are 2 imbalances in this game 1: activity 2: Real Money. ( u could almost throw luck on the wheel in there,, but i aint goin there w/ this bunch) then there is the part of the game that u can actually do something about strats, game knowlage, alliance(to name a few. though u cant always get in the alliance u want ofc). IMO, evony should do some of these peeps a favor an limit time allowed online per day/week or something (and i mean a favor to the people that are online like ALWAYS). People who have "lifes" just cant compete with some of these "no lifers", who seem to b online 24/7. i share my acc. with a co-worker, so we get double activity, it is the only way i/we stand a chance. just my opinion, dont get booty stung.

    as one of the "meat eaters" out there that has occasionally had to eat some smaller players out there..

    Look.. It's a war game.. not Hello Kitty funtime whateverthehellitis.

    That being said... I *do* try not to eat you. I honestly do. However, due to the oceans of inactive non-players choking the landscape, those of us who are actually *in* wars against other people trying to kill us pretty much have to hit everything and anything we can in an attempt to get food to keep up troops so *we* don't get killed. K?

    Yeah, sucks to be you when you're the one getting farmed.. but don't hate us.. Hate Evony for their refusal to bother to run a 15 second script that would free up the landscape for us to build new cities, npcs to farm for food, etc. Seriously.

    I really do feel bad for yall.. especially you newbies who don't know what you're doing yet... the current game environment on some of the upper servers is a *real* harsh learning curve compared to how some of the lower level ones were... I haven't been around long enough to know about the real lower numbered servers.. but hell, even starting off on 68 was a heckuva lot easier than restarting on 78 has been, all in all... just because Evony refuses to wipe inactives. It's been a real bloodbath, and the ones who are bleeding most are the little fish.

    im sorry, but bragging about a video game that relies mostly on activity to b on top? lol...my favorite is the peeps that play 24/7 and/or spend real $$ and think they are good at this game cuz of... well the last post pretty much says it all(not that i am saying u are a money spender Druegan. if u/whoever is and they think they are "good" at this game, think again. u need to use 1 of the few imballances in the game to get to where u are at. not to mention u are most likely more active(other imbalance)). also no im not a farm nor do i hate evony. so im in no way upset about anything, just able to see things as they are. once again just opinions so dont make me get bund-aids.
    cheers
