Thread: Evony misunderstand honour

Hybrid View

    Wink Evony misunderstand honour

    heres why Evony have misunderstood the concept of Honour:
    http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/honour

    you will see Honour is not confined to military actions. my argument is this:

    Honour, in Evony, should be given for actions other than just making attacks and should be debited for attacking anyone weaker than yourself and for acting in any other recognised dishonourable way.

    in actual fact, perhaps Prestige should be merged with Honour?

    i think in general Evony designers messed things up a bit, whether it's with honor or some other system...

    Evony rewards one-sided battles, at least rewards the victor. Good tight close battles, that are fun to do, are expensive and damaging even to the victor.

    Good game systems have mechanisms to encourage or reward competition on the same level. Consider chess or bridge or systems like that. Another example is in sports. You have divisions by age, ability, size, handicap. If Evony were football, you'd have pro teams attacking gradeschool teams most often.

    Thumbs up Honor, we dont need no stinking honor

    I have to agree, the simple point of honor in the game is to brag. Even though in civilized society bragging is not acceptable.
    I have had several players send 70k plus archers to attack my 200 archer towers and 100 traps myself, what a joke.
    If these players had real honor they wouldn't bother attacking little guys like me when there are players more their speed right next to me.
    Intimidation has allways been used in war but no one was rewarded for it.

    Have you guys played the game?

    Honor is something you try to avoid getting.

    Did you read what was posted? I think everyone above understands, but also understands that it's a stupidly simplistic design for a game, poorly conceived and implemented, and an opportunity missed by the developers.

    That's kind of hard when you get people sending waves of 100k archers...and they lose. At one point I think I was at 10m+ honor. Then lost it all the next day.

    Too bad there aren't any rewards for getting honor *HINT**HINT*

    WHY? I can see the reasoning behind dumping prestige, but not honor. . . . What game mechanic is affected by honor that would encourage you to want to lose honor?

    More honor you have, the less troops you can revive at the medic.

    Troops with high honor fight to the death while troops with low honor run away to live another day.

    The OP is practically retarded and has no idea how the game works, so to him he thinks Evony misunderstands honor. Evony understands honor just fine lol.
