    If only the rare items inside the packs were easier to obtain there would be a lot less complaints, and a lot more win.

    Actually, I think it would make people complain more.

    You know.. I think I made a post like this somewhere... I was told there were more packs and they had snuck in a bunch of different packs too like the Pan Gu packs etc...

    Packs have to be there ,, who cares.. you either buy or not .. Nobody is pointing nobody a gun to the head so pretty much ... plus IF you even had a clue about how much it costs to maintain a single gaming server , let alone all the ones pwe has at the moment.. Money has to come one way or another.. nothing in this stupid pos life is free.. Nothing.. not even love.

    Problem one: Anniversary packs were released at least two times before they made any new servers and they made MASSIVE PROFIT from these.

    Problem two: Raging Tide was released, and at the very same time, "Lucky Corals" were released. Anniversary packs redressed with lower drop rates. Again. MASSIVE PRFOIT was gained.

    Problem three: Archosaur came along, at the same time as yet ANOTHER pack sale. This was not because they needed more money, it was because the company got greedy after the huge success of points one and two.

    Problem four: Tiger packs, sunshine envelopes, and now more tiger packs? These aren't to keep the servers running, stop with the ****. This is nothing short of an effort to try and maximise profits once again, because their pack sales were one of the biggest sales to ever net them so much money. The new servers? I personally feel they were released because of packs, not that packs were released because of them.

    It helps to get your facts straight before you act like a know it all.

    PWE was doing fine until they started ignoring player concerns and stopped fixing bugs/finishing content that was supposed to be finished. I'd link you to their stock feed, but it's been posted so many times already; I don't think it's necessary.

    Apparently, whenever the devs see PWE's stock falling, they release a new pack to boost cash shop sales. Because Chinese gambling laws prevent the sales of packs on Chinese servers. b:bye

    Quite true, can't change the fact you're an obvious idiot because despite the fact PWE's stock feed says everything you need to know about why packs keep coming back, you seem to think they're a necessity and keep the game totally alive.

    You're clearly narrowminded and you have the observational skills of a five year old. I didn't tell you to stop writing facts; I just told you to get the facts straight if you're going to act like you know what you're talking about. (Thus, the post of yours I just quoted proves how you seriously don't read things properly. No wonder you think packs are a necessity.

    Are you also one of the heavy CSers who would die without your daily dose of tokens, by chance?)

    Dear players,

    This game shall now be known as Perfect Tokens. This game is run by tokens and only work through tokens and packs now. If you are a noob and reading this, know that tokens will be your life, and you will need to use tokens for everything. If you do not know by now, this game once required you to shell out cash for charms. This is not the case anymore. Charms are purchased for 4 gold, when indeed with that same 4 gold you may buy 4 "packs" which will most likely give you 15 * 4 tokens... which ammounts to 60 tokens. With those 60 tokens you will most likely purchase event pots (For the noobs, those are the potions that increase your health by a lot). Alas, if this game were to indeed stop providing packs there would be a hike in many items I will use telecoustics as an example.

    Have you guys noticed how world chat seems more crowded nowadays? With tokens down in price everyones two cents are now displayed in world chat, this is possible only through the perpetuation of tokens. When token packs were not in the cash shop most players must have noticed a dramatic spike in telecoustic costs. In lost city telecoustics went from 11K to 15K+ in a matter of days. Following this trend you can eventually see telecoustics burned up as less people are able to open packs for tokens. Thus, world chat will only be available everytime an influx of new packs comes out because no one wants to waste .9 gold on 10 telecoustics!

    To be honest, I don't want to grief the Game Designers, I don't even want to grief the GMs, I want everyone to ask themselves this: What will happen if the packs went away? How will you be able to flame and troll on world chat? How will you be able to survive without event pots? How will you even be able to find molds so cheap (Contrary to other beliefs, people arn't farming molds more, they are simply trading tokens for chip packs and then chipping for mold items).

    I end with this thought: The very thing that is destroying this game, (Token packs, Cash card packs, Visa packs, Factor packs) are the only thing that is keeping this game going. Very much like an alcoholic or druggie that is searching for the next glass of alcohol or the next needle injection, our game is now so reliant on packs that even a week without packs turns our in-game economies to ruin.

    Sincerely,
    Bean

    P.S. Now, how do we solve this problem?
