    ima say this now, if the new classes are even slightly better/the same caliber as psys then the wizards extinction is inevitable. psychics right now are slowly but surely being recognized as the best magic class in game right now and if the new classes are actually on par/better/compliment psychics in anyway then the balance will be upset and wizards will no longer be of use. the psys and earthguard will be the top of the magic food chain.


    and what will really seal the nail in the coffin is if the new classes have pretty magic spells. wiz spells are already ugly especially compared to psy skills lol. so ya, not looking good for wizards right now...

    It can't be helped that we look nicer, cast faster, have a nice little AoE Heal/Sage Purify, and can kill barbs in 1 hit with a soulburn attack.
    b:surrender You guys should petition for nicer stuff maybeh? The Wizards got SCREWED as far as magic classes go.

    ......except for Ice Dragon...omg...that skill. I would trade my earth troll for that dragon any day of the week.

    Frankieraye, I don't expect this to stay up for long; site admins on the news page have already killed it 3 times.

    What I WOULD like to see is PWI come out and publicly EXPLAIN to me why they are so worried about what's in my post, that they keep deleting it. Or did I hit the nail too hard to contrast?

    SO.... here it is (again).

    ======

    An ancient Pan'Gu prophecy had foretold the destruction of Perfect World:

    (TangLung's Spark note: those were the customers whose feedback PWE hasn't given a hoot about, over the years - not prophets.... ijs.)

    To all the haters, and would-be slammers, don't offer a comment if you haven't read the original post first, and without knowing WHY I am being so persistent.

    Butthurt? No... just very combattive when I am wronged.

    And don't tell me you don't care, or don't care to read it. If you don't care, then don't comment, either.

    http://bit.ly/PWISUX

    They keep truncating my post, too... so what you are seeing in the PWI forums is NOT the post that's on the website (where they can't touch it)

    this expansion is somewhat meaningless since FW is coming out soon. More than likely same time as expansion, all the expansion intends to do is keep ppl playing = more money in their pockets. Once FW is out PW will fade away and all the ppl that are ego hardcore about their chars will have the servers to themselves or with complete noobs = pw servers not fun.

    What PW should do is completely phase out Perfect World and focus on Forsaken World, and maybe PW can give a little something to players that migrate to Forsaken World if those players have played longer than a year or so on PW. That might result in a very high player base which would mean more player interaction with others = more fun, things to do. Which is why i say scrap PW and bury it under 10 feet of cement already, Forsaken World will be a by far better experience in the long run. b:bye

    These are very valid points of speculation. They may be quite right, too.

    Either way, here's hoping that in launching FW, the Management at PWE have learned from their errors in PWI.

    Same thing was said about BoI...and look how that ended up. I can't wait for the naysayers to finally be gone to FW so that the rest of us can play in peace.

    The thing is, PWI was PWE's first released game and they're most successful one up to this point, you don't expect them to just forget about it do you?

    How many expansions and major upgrades did you seen in you playing history? I seen a lot. So we have reason to be pessimistic about it.

    We just got Archosaur and Raging Tide....I doubt it.

    People can doubt the opening of a new server, but it doesn't change the fact if you're going to add all this content then you better have the high probably of expecting a new server to comprehend this content, because even if some of the servers are not near full, bad marketing and just an overall bad decision.

    It was predicted PWI will announce a new PvP server March-June'11, so expect that. and if not then come here and tell me how wrong I amb:pleased

    The only thing to be pessimistic about are the new bugs that are sure to be introduced while the old bugs remain unfixed. (Note, I've been here since a few days into week 1 in August 2008)

    Past updates(I can only recall 3 major and a few minor tweaks, forgot the 4th major):

    OHT: Was introduced a bit early into this game as it fit into the Chinese version. Honestly should've been introduced as part of the original release. It provided 4 new explorable maps as well as several new quest chains, and useful skills for both helping to balance classes for pvp and having beneficial uses in pvp.

    Genies: Excellent new aspect added to the game, took some time to figure out the specifics and proper working of the genies, or to incorporate the "new essentials" that genies provided, but overall good aside from the initial huge increase in lag.

    Tideborn: By far my favorite update, it introduced a huge new aspect into both pve as well as pvp as well as a new gear farming instance which further benefits the perpetual player with something more to do, a new goal to achieve, and new heights to climb.

    Overall, the major updates, b:victory.

    Minor updates on the other hand:

    Packs: By far the worst thing pwi did to the game, had they simply added the buyable tokens, the markets would still be balanced, there wouldn't be as many freak power players.

    Bounty Hunters: No longer are only the elite high levels, no longer is 100 hard fought and a true achievement, it makes it harder to be certain of the skill/drive of the player next to you.

    Frostland: This update especially pissed me off b:angry, when it was announced, was only days after I had gotten my old main character to the gearing I felt necessary to conquer an extremely difficult instance, but I let it slide as the description they gave was that the gear would be much easier to obtain from the new instance than it had been from the old.... So, show me one person wearing full Frostland armor, they don't exist, simply because this update was a lie. If however they enabled both versions of frostland (not difficult) as the leveling factor was already wrecked by Bounty Hunters, the restoration of the gearability would make the now over a year removal forgiveable.

    Lunar: Once again upset me, this time because I had finished my gear from this instance when they made it MUCH easier, however, as it's left us without certain bosses, once again, certain gear is nearly unattainable. Though with the addition of trophy mode, supposedly the gear materials can once again drop, but good luck actually getting the trophy mode reward.

    Hence, as this will be a major update, I expect to find myself satisfied by the results, though as with the Raging Tide update, I found myself wanting for a greater number of basic "Elite" armoring options, I certainly hope a new tiered gear instance like TT is added, as well as TT being updated and an alternative to nirvana is introduced to the game, not stronger, but an equivalent alternative.

    b:thanks
