Thread: Quit?

  1. #11

    Default Almost quit

    I had to change alliances to one that was at peace. I know it's a war game but after spending several weekend marathons and lately 12 hours on-line one day defending, coordinating and rebuilding I realized I couldn't keep this up. My family was peeved, my work was suffering and I was only getting 5 hours sleep at night.

    If I end up in another large war I've already been told I have to go to one city and "turtle".

    So yeah, the game has progressed to a point (for me at least) there isn't a "sweet spot". It's either farming or hours defending/attacking. Now I'm just chatting with alliance members, leveling heros, rebuilding and catching up on sleep.

    I have to agree that this game requires you to be intensively involved if you want to be competitive in any fashion. The only difference between the "strong" players and average players is how much time they spend playing. This is the reason I voted maybe. If anyone can show me a game like this one, but has some sort of restrictions and/or changes that dont require so much time I would be out of here and over there in no time.

    On a side note, I get a kick out of the people who quit and often times even make a good bye thead, only to come back a short while later...pathetic.

    Alexa will show a 50% drop in activity on Evony.com, starting in 3-4 weeks, and it will not rebound by mid-Jan.

    (Which server did you move to, dustino? 24 is soooo boring.)

    Do hate Evony, don't you? 50% is also too high.... If anything, it'll be 10-20% drop in old players and we will see new players fill the vacuum.

    I put maybe cuz the server I play in has been very laggy. But I'm still new so I'll keep playing in till the lag drives me to crazy to playing....

    Uh...what? I'm here. On the forum. Talking about the game. How do you skew me predicting there will be a huge drop off over the next month into a hatred for the game?

    I think this game has already grabbed as many dedicated players as it can. I do not think there will be no more coming in the fill the vacuum, everyone who wants to play has already seen the ads and given it a shot. There isn't another million new players out there to give this game a shot in the arm.

    Evony.com has already seen a 9% drop in the past 30 days, and with the holidays and college finals approaching that number will only increase.

    Voted for "kind of boring"..

    No, not planning on quitting anytime soon..too many friends here... but it *is* getting kinda boring.

    I mean... login, send out raids. train up archers... resend raids... resend raids.. cue up next construction (if applicable).. resend raids, resend raids, resend raids, resend raids.. maybe somewhere in the giant pile of "resend raids" is "throw a giant mass of troops at someone" or "reinforce an ally"...

    So I've started doing some random experiments on various parts of the game, just to keep my frontal lobes from turning into mush from the boredom.. and it seems to work ok for now.. and I farm for medals now and then.. it'll be months before I get the ones I need for my next title upgrade.
    Although admittedly, I'm better outfitted for the higher titles than I am for the middle ones I actually need...

    Meh, it kills time, and it's cheaper than cooking, which is my other habit.. lol
    <19:42>[DPS]: can i have the coords of that 'real life' please.. i'dd like to scout it

    I'm pretty sure this game is too addicting for me to save myself...
    yes - I'm quitting ... Trying to find out how to quit an alliance so I can delete my account.

    I have a certain player that attacks me 18+ times / day so I can't train soldiers and keep them long enough to build an army. Nor can I save anything up to research any further can he's plundering me so often.

    The game is just down right BORING as hell for me anymore.

    What I find most interesting in the attacks on me is that when I attack, I have a 10,000 troop dispatch limit but when I get attacked He's attacking with well over 40,000 archers and 10,000 soldiers. In fact this morning I was attacked from this player with nearly 100,000 troops in a single attack.

    There's clearly something amiss with this game and I don't like it anymore.
