But heres where im going dawrv: If i was required to pay to play, then yes i prolly wouldnt be nagging in here. But the simple fact (Like Sir Jta stated first) is that i can just say "Screw it" and go to the stone ages.
No one can control what you do on a game. If you want to play without premium that's your choice. Innogames expected a large % of players to quit/stop buying premium. Your not required to pay to play, the games playable without premium, just a lot more harder.
well see, i dont like the increase, btu i see where they are comming from. i mean lets be realistic, every company will raise prices at some point. we pay for new features and stuff yes. but i see where us as players come from also. i think that the price increase was a little high. but the way i see it is, if you want us to pay more, then you should let us have a little more imput on game updates and make them a little more frequent. we have to pay for it more than we used too (reason i play this game was cuz it was cheap, but not so much now. and trust me im broke all the time) so we shoudl get more input then we used to.
Suggestions and Discussion forum - your input has always been there since the start of TW.
i see the big deal for those that didn't remove ad's.
this is a fairly big increase and i don't agree with it. i feel that players that wish to have a separate gaming software on there cell phones which is a good idea but also feel they should bare the cost of those options. i personally know many that will never use this option yet will pay for it.
other then that i don't see a need for the increase other then recession and ino-games wanting more money for the same basic things that they were already offering. some payment is need and i feel the previous structure was fine cost to pay. elders and in game staff do put in quite a bit of time so that cost and needs to be paid as well the creator have to see profit other wise why continue.
but this cost increase feels a bit like taxation with out representation....
Only Admins get payed, elders, ingame/forum moderators don't get any real money. Just premium benefits for us and for 2 friends.
Even so quite a large % of users use the mobile option. If it was a pay extra to use feature, you will have hundreds of players complaining that there cheating, and that the game is unfair as you can "buy advantages" and whatnot- it's better to have it and need it than need it and not have it.
No matter what, someday you may use you phone to get on TW to defend incommings while your at work/school etc. As nowadays you get free Internet on most sim companies.

I didn't mean to pick apart your argument, but it just happened like that :icon_redface:
Looking forward to the infraction for posting my opinion...
If you want to argue your point- by all means your allowed, don't act like that as it clearly diminishes the effect of your post :icon_rolleyes:.
hmm lets see the difference...Tribal Wars is a text based game..less work needs doing on it..
If you don't know what your talking about, don't speculate. Please?
as you said...the Idea's are suggestions from a player..A. thats one player. B. that player gave his/her opinion on how they think the game could be better and now pays extra for it?
Would you prefer if innogames raised all the prices then released all the recent updates?
More updates are soon to come. I could understand your anger if there was no updates then the price jumped over the same product. But this is the complete opposite.
your 'making the game better' so more people will play yet your increasing the prices so meaning current players and most likely new ones will leave..
less premium will be bought...
Players will forever buy game premium, people will always be able to afford TW premium. To keep with the global market, TW had to modify it's prices, as did many other major online games. Less premium may be bought, but at least the game continues going.
and omg we get removed adds for free??? that is awesome? whats the catch? nothing you say? just the fact we have to now pay more....well thats great seeing as the fact i never used premium points on that anyways.
So now you get more for your premium.
so basically we aren't allowed to know what you are spending our money on and whether or not its actually going to improve TW?
Refer to my previous comment.
Though common sense would display that if players pay for premium for a game- that game has to keep attracting customers to buy premium, so the money is going to improve TW.
I love Tribal Wars but i sadly would be one of many who would leave this game...in the end it would just be cheaper to buy a computer/xbox/ps3 game and play that online.
What if people can't afford xbox/ps3?
(rough quick google prices)
Xbox - £150 + monthly internet
PS3 - £220
Games roughly £40.
The difference is a lot of games are single player. Multi player games are mostly limited to a number of users- COD's 20 I believe? Not to mention price of an xbox connecting online to get that. But once you complete a game then what? It's finished- nothing new comes out of it.
TW is 17,000 players a world with new worlds always coming out? Playing is continuous, and a whole new style of game play.
You can't even compare them. Though i think it's safe to say TW is cheaper than what anyone would spend on an xbox/ps3 and all the games they own. :icon_rolleyes:
Also, take this in good light pl0x?
I don't want to have these debates/opinions/arguments turn into players posting loosing their tempers.
