    After orbs are gone, I'd say down. Unless some other kind of packs come out after the d. orb sale, which they probably will, then gold will more than likely go up.

    Cant answer that question unless you know whats coming in the boutique. And then if you knew you'd end up changing that outcome.

    For instance, if packs are coming tomorrow, then gold would go up. If we knew that ahead of time already, gold would already be up with people stock piling gold.

    So just gotta wait & see.

    I'd save the gold till the next packs come out. Then you can get 50 packs with 45 gold and such offers..

    PW Coming to the end of its life, id say they could squeeze one more pvp server out before they merge and move on, but gold prices will proberly rise still, or stick around the 400k mark

    lol i remember when chest of coins came out, and gold prices shot to 200k and then a gm had to post an offical post on forums about the high state of the encomany and how there working to lower gold prices. free super ingame picture by me if you can find and quote that! b:chuckle

    Eventually, all Gold price will rise and rise and rise..
    Same like Pw-Beijing:

    goldpricebeijing.jpg

    and their Cash Shop prize is more expensive.. (some not)

    itemmallbeijing.jpg

    *yes, next patch they will raise the max amount of Gold prize in Auction, so its not 999.900 Coins anymore.

    Wow, that's insane! Can you even imagine the rage there would be if...excuse me, when it reaches that point?

    Also, those pics will probably be deleted. The GM's don't like pictures being posted of other versions of this game on this forum.

    First PWI will fall, then BOI, then FW. It'll be like a fail domino effect.

    I just hope they actually LEARN something from this....

    They probably won't, and make all their other games the same way, with the same "pay to win" system, and be like...

    8O
    Omaigawd!

    when they fail the same way.

    They will, because they'll just make a new game to replace the one they helped destroy.

    I think that the gold price could not raise that much if there wouldn't be any inflation in the ingame coins too. I wouldn't pay 5m for some fashion pieces or 30m for some ordinary 3m/s wings. There would need to be a place to make very very much coins, and only coins. Meaning like 10-30k coins per stack for this to happen oO Or well.. thats atleast in normal games, dunno about pw since this is the only game where the "cash shop money" can be bought directly from others, which I've played.

    You have to remember when you view china-based games that they're much more serious about their games over there. (With a few exceptions in America XD)

    Also (totally clueless on this part) what is the value of the Chinese currency compared the U.S. dollar?

    ya, it's cheaper there if buy Gold with real $.
    but as popular talk in this Forum, where there so much hate towards them... :x and talking about "no, im not buying Gold with real $, I farm all of them in game"; this will be like a stick in the ****.

    Well, maybe they can still farm and sells 89 Books, they're around 40-90m+ each..

    It's not so much the buying of gold that people hate as it is the ABUSE of gold. (Cash Crutchers, Hyper/Oracle Noobs, etc.) We don't hate gold. We don't hate people who buy gold.

    We do hate the prices of everything in the CS. We do hate how the stupid packs put gold in game out of reach. (Like during the Tiger Packs, where the prices were skyrocketing up to about 600k = 1 gold, and higher.) We hate those people who think they're being smart for sticking a 30 DOLLAR price tag on Marriage Packs. (On...just ONE Marriage pack.)

    (BTW, Marriage packs are one of the most sought out items on the mall, next to Hyper Stones, and Wings/Mounts. Wanna make a profit Devs? How about a Marriage Pack sale?)

    I think the current "No pack in the CS" event is about to end. we are soon go back to normal "Pack in the CS".so up is my guess

    I am glad someone else thinks that marrige packs are way overpriced 60 gold for two items which really should just be one is pathetic I am english so I work in the good old pound over here it is 36 pounds (13 pounds a time which is my limit). I can think of much better things to spend my money on that an item that is daylight robbery at least d.ick turpin wore a mask when he robbed you. I can not stand greedyness and that is pure greed.
