Thread: Save Evony from itself?

    Default Save Evony from itself?

    We all agree that Evony is a fun game to play. the idea of gathering a massive army, matching strategy and wits against other alliances, and the satisfaction of slipping in reinforcements at the last second to defeat the enemy. We all spend many, many hours in this game doing tedious farming for the hope that we can have fun. However, after a time of playing, we all realize that the building, the tedium has its limits. Evony boasts 10 million players but how many are left? 10%, 5%?

    I think it is time the developers admit they need some major changes and also, maybe it is time for them to bite the bullet and reset all servers. If they combine a full wipe of the servers and have all of us start again, then they can make the most needed changes to the game (offensive numbers, upkeep, etc etc) and also they could maybe give those 9 million people who have quit a reason to come back. If they sent an email to everyone, offering 500 cents in game to come back to all new servers, with changes that are posted then in the medium term they would receive large returns in purchases I believe.

    I love playing this game, and I do not have all the answers. But I believe that something has to be done to keep the game relevant and not have to rely on the cleavage ads to lure people. I think it time for a reset, and in doing so Evony will be saved from itself.

    You are the perfect example of why Evony needs a reset. I've been playing since it was civony- spent money on coins also. I'm not a noob whining about how the game is hard. Congrats on being super awesome, but for the other 99% of players in here who want a challenge and have left the game, they would gladly come back and would probably buy coins. I would, and I know of at least 100 other players who have left, and who would come back if changes were made.

    Talking umm really

    Come on you know a lot of stuff will be fixed when age 2 comes out they are concentrating on that be smart. If you have been here since the very start you know as well as anyone the changes that come when a new version comes out. Not to mention to deal with ppl like mr cranky pants above, they merge servers which you should also know.

    ALSO, if you do quit they do send you mail with incentives to come back. I played on 53 for a while but quit bc of low medal drops and got an email to come back with some package or cents or something I forget now. But by that time what is the point in coming back when the 2mil prestigers are out there owning your server.

    And to A3 about your prestige, PICS OR IT DIDN'T HAPPEN.
    For my birthday, my work gave me 3 days off. AND SO DID EVONY!!!! THANKS GUYS!

    Server resets = Bad idea. If you want to play on a new server, then that option is available to you. There are definately some issues with the game that need to be fixed, but i believe most will be fixed in Age II. There will always be things that people will complain about no matter what they do.
    Any way you look at it...... it's still a game.

    A server reset is a big 'ol kettle of fish in either direction.

    However looking at "other games" similar to Evony, I've found those who impliment timed server resets (usually about once a year) tended to have a much more even power structure, where those that do not (Evony) tend to have a smaller number of old players that just go around dominating the server... pretty much killing interest in the game.

    In general the barrier to entry for games that reset yearly is rather small whereas in Evony the barrier (especially on older servers) can be insurmountable. But if that's really what Evony is aiming for, then that's the way it is. Many of those in this "ruling class" pay pretty well, so the Devs are happy to have them.
    Confusion is a state of mind... or is it?
