    I think my internet connection works the same way in the whole world, i can connect anywhere i want to. And you know, my visa works almost the same way. For an internet service, there are no country borders.

    Its called "Foreign exchange rate" example for every 1 dollar in the us = 8 dollars in china.

    *Esy example* I could live beside a shop that sells a Skirt for $30, but a shop down the street could have the exact same skirt for $10, I'm more than willing to spend a little gas to save some money cause Even including Gas I'm still coming out ahead.

    A similar comparison can be made here, but instead of Gas its Ping and well for some the Skirt might actually still be a skirt ^.^ They have to keep in mind that they have to be competitive in a GOLBAL market. which is seems right now they are neglecting.

    It's hard to take people for granted when there is an exact duplicate of this game with zen for way less then the price of your's, the best idea would be to either match there price or go lower.. not higher that is really pushing it.

    Don't forget PW-EU is coming soon. Cheap gold, decent ping. (even for usa, assuming it's not banned) How does PW-INT expect to compete with that?

    With these prices I wont be buying any zen like I was planning to do. Rather spend it on a ptp game now since I've been thinking of trying War out.

    I completely agree with this, after looking through it, they could triple the amount of gold per $1 and the my version would still be cheaper, but it would be an acceptable price in my view at least.

    They stated they won't have any IP blocks.

    ATM it looks like this to me: either play here with a reasonable ping and suffer from high CS prices (to those who think "oh well, i'll just buy them ingame", do you honestly expect that players who will be selling CS items/zen ingame will ask a reasonable price? Expect at least a 3x My-EN price imho) or play on the My-En version with reasonable CS prices but suffer from lag... or wait for the EU server and hope it will combine the best of the 2 above.
    PW has been endless frustration for me #2

    I seriously doubt the prices on the european servers will be much better than here.

    seriously. I just hit lvl 20, I had planned to use zen to reach this this lvl, buying 2 hieroes, expand my inventory and buy cloths, they literally just lost money. I figure I would be needing replacement hieros about now and starting to buy mats for crafting (there is no way I would ever buy mats in CS with these prices, that's just ridiculous), so now they are going to be losing more. I hope they decide to lower prices soon, not sure how much money they want to lose. On the plus I guess I just saved enough money to go buy some real cloths.

    Money I had spent by lvl 20 in CB was 27 gold/zen, in OB, nothing.

    GM of PW EU already said their prices won't be higher than PW MY unless he was lying
