yeah, total inappropriate offer until the real compensation of falsely banned players is not handled... i bet many still have pending appeals

Just shows how much lack of common sense inno has, to now offer those packages after the turmoil they have created. I for one will never spend another dime on this game.

35 +/- 2 false bans sorry for pointing this out, so irrelevant... however the next 10 post will prove me wrong
what's important is that finally it is admitted and written that US servers never had a Council / representation in Inner Council, guess whose fault @Athenakins @Gorben @olaray @Dread Thrill or @Medic911 ?

sad thing is most top golders wont even care they will just keep on buying offers.. it doesnt matter that they might eventually end up banned and in exactly the same situation most have been in past week but hey keep on investing !
if i was in their shoes i would be really careful with real money investments US market wise if not InnoGames globally..

Inno (along with other game developers) rely on how much we are addicted to their games. Some players have their entire egos wrapped up in this game -- and Inno knows that.
With this new attractive (and expensive) bonus package being offered, Inno will probably make money on their (latest) mistake. (smh)

If you buy that $150 package now or prior to this issue you suck at life. I'm not afraid to spend some $, that is just silly. I'm not currently in a world for the first time in 5 years (mainly because there is not one worth joining). I got an offer, valid for 3 days - 1 x construction buff, 1 x increased RSS production and 100 x gold.
wow, generous! 5 years of game play and that's the offer to come back lol

It's not about providing a competitive, live environment game for a community, its only about how much they can squeeze the piggy bank before they are forced closed by any government for fraudulent activity. It's the primary reason there is no office outside of Germany. It limits jurisdiction.

yes, that's the ticket, Trick your players into paying more for something.
If you do decide to buy, DON'T pay with your credit card.
1) I don't want them having my card info.
2) Paypal handles disputes better.

Just an FYI - that 159.99 package previously in some form was just 99.99. Seems the way to make up for a PR disaster is to jack ...up?

So not only have they scewed everyone they also increased prices on packages by 50%

I've kept quite on this issue but I would still love to see a response from the us CoMa even if they en mods/lurks carried most of the burden already....

I am tired of these gold offers and event after event. You use to be able to get an edge on opponents by using some gold but it wouldn't guarantee success and now it does. I'm just not willing to shell out this much cash on this game and that limits the amount of success I can have depending on the world. I just want a some what even playing field but that is never going to happen with this game anymore.

Would also like to draw attention to the starter packages. The $20 pack used to get you advisers for 10 weeks, as well multiple resources production boosts, build time reduction, and 40 or so COWar and COWisdom. Now, you get them for 35 day, one resource production boost, and like 10 reduce build times with about 200ish gold and less than 20 COWar/Wisdom. This change was completely unannounced as well which is ridiculous. But the fact that the SP's got greatly reduced and virtually made insignificant/useless is absurd. That was a good way for people to get a good boost at the beginning for a cheap price and then they'd be able to compete with the mass-golders. Now, people can't.
One last point: We've all heard "how much people spend on the game isn't in data we can see or affect how we handle situations". this is the biggest lie since well, the game has been around. I've known mass-golders who cheat, use bots, and other illegal scripts. They're reported multiple times, nothing happens to them. If this also wasn't the case, this game would be a hell of a lot better to play and people could actually play it without being under constant attacks from nukes that were killed an hour ago yet somehow are fully reloaded the next hour and already inbound again.. The game is now tailored to them. And it's why people are leaving and complaining all the time. There's virtually nothing positive on these forums because of it. All it takes is a simple fix.

sorry but i gotta correct you.. out of all games, regardless of the market, grepolis makes least money for Inno.. elvenar and forge of empires are what they are mostly talking about in that press issue..

With how things have changed and how it's being directed, I'm sure Grepo is quickly catching up...

Hello Inno,
Not even sure why I am writing this because I am done playing this game but I just wanted to send a message to Inno that I hope they realize that this 1980s browser game with horrible graphics is a dinosaur and will be soon extinct. The only reason this game exist is because of the teams of friends that enjoy playing alongside each other. With flight stimulator‘s, virtual reality , And 3-D games on the horizon this game will not be able to compete. It is just a shame that an honest mistake that could’ve been fixed if Inno would of just stepped up in the beginning and owned it and fixed it . You speak of only 35 players being banned over nine worlds but you forget to consider that of the 35 players you banned leaders that destroyed alliances also you don’t count the number of cities lost. Some of these players had hundreds of cities. Core cities, frontline cities, myth nuke cities. The compensation per lost city should have been at least 25,000 gold or the amount it takes to gold a city from ground up. That should’ve been the least amount of compensation given to each player per lost city due to the ban. It wouldn’t of cost you anything because it is imaginary gold if you guys didn’t realize that but what you lost is real players, spending real money, for years to come. Let’s do the math shall we, 35 players @ $500 a year= $17500 yearly x 3 years = $52500 loss over the next 3 years and this is a low estimate Because I know players that drop $500 in one event. I don’t know who is running the show in your company but your a idiot!!!
