What is it that people constantly ask for new race/classes...maybe people dont see it could spoil game dynamics current classes are set up to counter blaance each other and all work well together bringin in new classes only pushes some classes away making them not wanted in groups and reducing amount of players at higher level (making it harder to do fb's etc)...so just a poll do you really tihnk new classes and races are needed and if so why ?

    How is it going to be unbalanced? They've made the first six classes and balanced them out quite nicely.
    So why wouldn't they be able to do it again, but with two extra classes instead?

    the first six classes aren't balanced

    ppl thinks they are balanced cuz a weak class can pwn the other with lots of + refines

    but that doesn't mean they are balanced

    The problem is no one trusts pwi anymore. After nix bugs which were ignored to make money and the way pw has displayed time and time and time again that they only want moar moneyz and **** the game....why would you trust them? Cube boxes, countless sales, screwed economy, lies, more bugs by the day, promoting scams for zen... pw has let the player base down a few times too many.

    I think at this point, we're all afraid of pwi making a major **** up and implementing a huge unbalance, most likely involving the cash shop or gold. And indeed, even I fear it. Lets face it, deep down we all know chances they'll **** it up are vastly higher than chances they'll do this properly. =/

    I wish the devs would cop on to the fact that customers not being able to trust them one bit is going to kill their business and destroy the game.

    PvP maybe not so but all fit into a group in pve 6 classes = 6 man groups with addition of 2 new classes 8 classes only 6 in a group 2 races are gonna get pushed away i.e BM replace by the so called assasin and also to add freshness new areas...mobs..new city...lots of new quests...new mounts.....new dailys...lots of ways rather than adding new classes

    Fine. If we're going by that logic, it doesn't matter either way if they add new classes. It's already unbalanced.

    All games out here be they P2P or F2p only had new classes and races once in a while to have you stay longer...

    new class, new things to test,.. so you stay longer.. doesnt mean there are corrections to bugs, or improved content.
    I look at all the trollers, and Pvpers.. and know they wouldnt have lasted 30sec on Camelot.

    Exacly, a new race/ class would make everything more interesting. Besides, watching the same classes do the same thing every day can get boring after a while. New skills are good too since they add another dimension to the gameplay of a class.

    Because the first six classes are not balanced out, you will notice this if not now then later.
    Quit.

    Because forum avatar means everything?
    From what I've seen, every class has its strengths and weaknesses in both PvE as PvP. The only thing that might be considered stronger or better are the legendary pets (nix in PvP and herc in PvE).

    Well, the primary reason I think more classes and races is a neat idea is simple, variety. If there's one thing I love in a game, it's variety. Call me spoiled from my years of D&D where just in the core rulebooks alone you have hundreds of possible race and class combinations, and countless ways to customize your appearance, personality, and abilities, and the possibilities are literally endless when you start getting into the supplemental books, Dungeon Magazine and Dragon Magazine, not to mention all sorts of fan created content. Then there's the secondary reason, just to spite all you people who whine and cry that they want new content, then when PWE gives it to you, you whine and cry because you suddenly don't want it anymore.

    Yea OK.


    Your like what level 52? When being an archer is still easy mode.

    Get to higher levels and you will see why the game is not balanced.

    Play a mage and you will see how underpowered they are.
    Play a nix veno and you will see how overpowered they are.
    Hence = not balanced.
    Quit.

    I've played a mage already. However I haven't played a nix veno, but I do know how they are in PvP (experienced firsthand).
    That's why I said, the only thing are probably the legendary pets. They weren't there in the beginning, now where they?
    If we're comparing a non-legendary (or better said, nonfleshream) venomancer to a mage, we'll see that the mage hits harder. That's their strength.

    I see plenty of balance. I saw a wizard nearly kill me in 2-3 hits in my last TW, I'm in arcane so that's a hard hitting class! They also can kill barbs in possibly 1 hit. You don't know what underpowered is you just like to talk about what you do not know about.

    I see balanced classes here, but I also see a ton of players (AKA: almost the entire playerbase) that does not know how to properly play their class, so they complain.

    New races and classes may well throw off the balance of power in PW. What will happen if they create a class that is a better tank than the barb? or a better healer than the cleric? It may be hard for them to accept their demotion. Recent events (Jolly Jones events and gold price manipulations) have lost my confidence. I fear PWI will **** itself up, that they will create a whole new mass of irate and disgruntled players.

    I know a lot of clerics who would actually be quite content to be "demoted" if it meant the new class would be the ones everyone would call to save their butts after getting wiped out by a monster.

    One of the reasons I picked cleric was to be useful. If all of a sudden no one wanted me to help...I would not be content.

    The reason to come out with new classes is because the whole F2P MMO market is going thru class and other major updates (tis the season). So to stay competitive PWI will also have to update their content.

    This is true also b:chuckle It is a Competitive market and they have to stay up to date to keep costumers attention, so to me it just seems logical that in an MMO's progression, new classes will be added.
