    Sorry to hear that, though I can't say it's a surprise. I didn't really know you well except for a few PM conversations about an alt, but you were one of the people I wished I knew better, which is kind of the opposite of how I feel about most people in this game.

    I don't care how old or young you are, how small your **** is, how much of a nerd irl you are or how depressed you are that you never will get laid. There is no reason to act like an A-hole to everyone on an mmorpg. Its a shame that I have to take time out of my day to tell people "stop being an A-hole". So I end with this, if your acting like an A-hole, and some one tells you your being an A-hole chances are your being an A-hole.

    Best wishes in your endeavors Maveena~ b:cute

    Is it wrong to post in someones' farewell thread to wish them good luck and pay respect, even if you didn't know them at all?

    I hope not. I feel obligated for some reason. A lot of good people are leaving (and have left) and it makes me sad. Anyone that pays attention knows who the "famous" players on the server are. You were some of the first people here. You pioneered the game for the rest of us. You helped us on our fb's and we looked up to you. You pk'd us and we complained but looked up to you still, lol. You're not replaceable and you will all be missed.

    You guys and gals are the backbone of this game, the ones that built it up, gave it the great reputation and character it had back in the day. You're the reason I heard about this game in the first place and started playing. Thank you all for the good times and fond memories!

    but ruin it since the TW patch. How many more people have to quit before you finally realize you've **** this game up completely?

    Actually think the game was already headed down the path to ruin long before the TW patch... for a long time now there has not been enough for the 10x players to keep them interested even TW was not gonna do that. Economy was destroyed by the Anniversary pack... that is when gold spiked to the stupid high lvls and has never returned.

    More than **** up TW, I think what they did to Twilight Temple has hurt the game more.... people can almost not farm 99 gear anymore so now have to run Nirvana constantly to make enough coin to purchase mats...

    This has also devalued the Nirvana crystals... seems that every time players find new ways to earn in game coin so they can keep up with the cash shoppers, the Dev`s either put those items in the boutique or throw in a 2x drop or something to make them worth alot less.

    So all they are trying to do is cater to those that will continue to spend money on a F2P game. So increase your credit limits and continue to play PWi or wait till FW comes out and play it until they do the same with it.

    Gonna see alot more people leaving over the coming weeks... just may as well get used to it

    Trelmanor - you speak great truth here and it is sad b:surrender

    There are more then a few things that have been proposed by the dev's on the CN servers and such. Even suggestions a LON time ago that would have aided in this.

    Hell they came out with Nirvana then within 2 weeks (?) but the mats in the packs? Way to thrown spitballs at the 10x :p

    It is sad, but there are MORE then a few things that they could have done sooner to keep the 10x base more then happy. I am watching a few things personally on the CN forums that could prove to be a good thing for PW here, but I am skeptical that it will make much of a difference.

    To little to late? Well...I am not sure. I personally still have a draw to this game but it is more in the relationships with people that have formed. Many of us have made some great friends through this game and tbh it is more of an online sims style community atm b:chuckle

    I think you should realize that lvl10x are LESS profitable to pwe than the in-built charecters. Thus the quitting of people with endgame gear is not only little loss its kind of a gain to pwe due to the better chances the not-yet-endgame players have to make it "top dog" with some CSing. Endgame 10x who just farm all day to get his wep from +8 to +10 and pwns all day in pk is just not really welcomed, he is a burden to PWE's economy.

    On the bright side, I do belive this game will last for other 1-2 years atleast, Just that the top players will be forced out due to bordem and ever growing obsticales from pwe in form of new and improved equipment for new CSers, harder 10x instances, faster lvling, reduce in farmable goods value and more. And the natural order will be the replacement of generations.

    Ether take the short way and quit now, save time money and anger, or hold tight to your "top dog" title but suffer from bordem, more powerfull CS reinforcments to your upcomming rivals, and perminantly decreasment in the time-income value in farming.

    Mav, dont be sad you have finally won the game!

    w/e you do, (to all of you) you will be wise to not get involved with another pwe game, It is likely to be the same as this game in the long run.

    More than **** up TW, I think what they did to Twilight Temple has hurt the game more.... people can almost not farm 99 gear anymore so now have to run Nirvana constantly to make enough coin to purchase mats...

    The reasons TW pay was eliminated as well as 3-3 made increasingly more difficult was to remove a relatively easy source of income for high level players.

    TW pay gave enough to many players to pay for charm costs or supplemented farming/merchanting enough so that some high levels never had to cash shop.

    3-3 gold mats are still cash shopped by a majority of the players, except that they're not cashing in to buy coins to pay the high level farmers. That money is now going to tokens, either directly through pack sales or indirectly through gold trade > purchase tokens to chip the mats. Either way this is a coin/token sink, which to PWI is better than paying out higher levels for farming which mostly just circulates old coin. It helps combat inflation and even better, it gives more higher level players incentive to cash shop or quit.

    So it's really the combination of both that has driven away many high level players who either can't farm 3-3 for gold anymore or won't cash shop. The only people who are really ok with all this is PWI's 'new breed' of player who has been trained to cash shop from the beginning with tokens for oracles, hypers for grinding and frost, and by the time they've hit 100, end up buying full Nirvana sets... like that one horrible new BM that nobody has ever heard of that suddenly has +12 Nirvana claws... I don't even remember their name but remember laughing at them in WC.

    Uncannies are actually selling for more these days... last cat shop I saw buying them was for 540k... before these changes they had dropped to 450-475k-ish.

    Instead of getting 200 players to casually cash shop like old school players, they're more happy with a couple dozen major 'new breed' cash shoppers. It's better for their profit margin.

    most people that i know will move to that game for anoter 2 year until pwe *** it up like they did with perfect world

    they ruining perfect world way before tw patch they are ruining it since the introduction of chest of coins + perfect hammer .... almost a year ago (but to be fair im really surprised that a free game stayed for 2 year)

    W/E happens doesn't really bother me much.. I only play now to chat with friends a do some pvp... other than that there really isn't much worth doing.... with all the focus on CS I won't even bother with gear upgrades anymore because someone soon will just have enough money to burn to buy rank 9 and become supreme ruler....


    No longer interested in 'keeping up with the jones' '

    And Whitey I agree perfect world may be around a while yet and that other PWE games will be largely the same, but like any new game the emphasis on CS will be small till you reach a high enough level to really make it count.

    Until then the games themselves are pretty good and they are entertaining as long as you can make some friends along the way , so I would say don't slam the other PWE games until you try them... even if they keep you entertained for a while and you don't spend alot on it then it is still worthwhile.

    All other mutli player games will be the same as well unless they are pay-to-play because no one can afford to simply create a game, set up servers and keep I.T. staff on the payroll just so people can enjoy themselves for free.

    All these games cost money to operate and the need the income from somewhere....unless they start getting sponsorship advertising dollars lol..
    Can you picture Adidas sneakers in the CS or maybe Levi's Jeans (and no not the character), that would kinda be funny, all the females can buy Gucci handbags and the men can wear Old Spice while pk'ingb:laugh

    TBH, owning lands shouldnt give coins since day 1 of PWI, so nobody would give that excuses now. I will be honest - this change I liked a lot. If You think for a while - the market was "flood" every week for last 2 years with 550M coins from lands. Its obvious it also was the reason why prices of gold were changing so much and with packs coming out 1 year ago it could jump to 700-800k per unit.

    I agree with Trel. Its not like the TW patch changed things out of sudden. This game has less to offer lately. lvling is extremely easy and dumb now - mq + dailies + cube + bh + frosts + oracles + hypers... You get lvl 10x out of nowhere... As much as I like the changes with Nirvana and the new HH doesnt bother me that much, tho Im thinking abt those new players willing to farm their gears make me feel pity of them. HH is harder atm than Nirvana which is supposed to be end-game instance... Strange or dumb?

    I guess You are talking abt Ringstinger. He is not that BAD! Look at the bm guy called Engkhalid - event helmet with garnet gem, cube protection necklace together with HH100 fists +10, etc... Shocking...

    The prices of uncannies were lower because of 2x drop. It always nerf the prices of crystals, hh mats, etc.

    Old players know how to make money, farm, etc without using CS, so ofc the new blood is who is giving money to PW and they take care of. Im a bit affraid that a lot of ppl will soon move to FW, at the beggining all will have fun like in this game and after 1 year its gonna be another "pack to play" game made by PWE.

    @Trel

    I think p2p games have this advantadge. They have stable income, they dont depend on CS. Also You avoid many **** kids for the simple reason that they cant afford it.
    Because size really MATTERS!!!
