    I'm sorry to say this but this is PWI what do you expect. This game has almost no respect for it's player base. The only reason they might try to appeal to us is if they are losing money due to players leaving because they realize how broken this game is. All they care about is our money and that's it.

    I don't know if I believe that. They really don't have any power here, which is due to the fact China basically controls what these guys do. However, a simple forums post explaining what's in our future would actually GAIN my respect, and probably the same with ALOT of the people who would otherwise leave. I can only speak for myself, but this just makes more sense to me. Can PWI really afford to make this gamble? Probably not. If they do this, I predict them to be out of business within 2 years, in which case it will sadly be a slow painful death for the company they I love.

    I don't even think they care about this game. They are advertising the other games much more than this one. So.....Um. *Super Hero Voice Activate*......CACTUS AWAY

    Idk, I just know it would be the wrong way for them to pursue money. Honesty will get them MUCH further.

    From what I read on that Chinese link(using Google Translate), it seems to me that:

    1) they are opening a new "instant-max lvl" server. The new server will NOT affect the normal gameplay of current PWI. You will be able to instantly make a new account/character there if you are atleast lvl 40+ and Aware of harmony on your character in pwi. If I read it right, you will get high lvl character and high lvl gold gear instantly for free on the new server if you meet the requirements.

    2)Coming back to the current pwi servers, there will be a 24/7 active pvp instance(similar to NW) you can enter to fight against players of different servers. Also there will be 2 new map layouts for TWs, besides the current TW map.

    3) The current original pw map will be getting extended with new areas to travel. Also if seems after stealing too many concepts already from the biggest MMORPG game of all time which has a monthly subscription, PWI will yet again have another interesting concept of player interaction with NPC factions. Im not sure, but it does seem like players will now be able to gain favour with specific npcs throughout the world starting with the Qing Emperor's envoys that will be introduced in the next major expansion. The players will thus will be able to buy pots/gear/stuff for cheap than regular prices/repairs might cost less than usual if you hold enough favour, etc.

    I can read chinese as well and it sounds like a new perfect world where u can transfer a 40+ toon to.
    Everybody in there will be same level and will get some standard gold gear to play with in new instances and a whole new map.
    They also mentioned a new battle pet system, where u can pick one out of hundreds of creatures and raise your own unique pet b:chuckle

    Doesn't sound like a april fool joke to me.
    We'll see if you can transfer your R999 gears b:nosebleed

    OMG... so this isn't going to effect our current version of the game? Oh sweet Jebus, oh lordie have sweet mercy. I was scared! *checks back of pants* I was only able to use Google Translate, which sucks, but I thought this would replace our current version. I'm so happy! b:cryb:shocked

    The new server is all about pvp fun with everyone having equal gear. Transferring your r9 gear setup in pwi to the new character will defeat the purpose of balanced pvp. BUT I think they will give everyone r9 on the new server for a start. Or maybe give everyone tt99 and players will have to earn better gear through Honour Killing (or PK in pwi terms).

    nah they said lvl40+ getting some standard gold gears, everybody will be same level but they didn't say everyone will be in same gears b:cute
    Some promotion to attract new players maybe ...

    False


    how to explain they made third recast for our version months before china got theirs?


    those are just excuses.....pwi is just doing whats most profitable to them
    if there are dumb enough people to cash 10k $ for new gears be sure pwi will come with it

    sadly for them there is just few cash players like that left

    Didn't know this. I've only recently started getting into all this kind of stuff, so I apologize. This is, however, the trend that I have been seeing. What PWI needs to do if they want to start making more money, while being able to give more generous sales is take a more active approach to getting more customers. I'd love to see a TV commercial or 2 for PWI, ijs b:chuckle I mean, a f2p game with the option to pay for better things would probably attract a lot of people if they saw it on TV.

    I am going to assume we don't get the +3 Def Level Stones either, correct? If so, that's a big sigh of relief.

    The +3 stones were removed from pwcn after just 1 week. I don't think we'll ever get those +3 stones since we are being synched us up to just before they were introduced. In a later patch we should be getting the +2 attack stones (Jade of Steady Attack?).

    Patch size is 260MB for what I assume is tonight's maint. Usually you can find the patch before they announce it on their site.

    Nope those two are being added to the game client. I'm not 100% sure we will actually be able to enter them but I'm probably 80% sure. There are towers on them you have to defend.

    the Dragon would have been a better choose " HANDS DOWN " . a Dragon Transformation would have made better sence to me and would have been better suited to what the game is based on. we are barbs and we are suppost to aggressive in every way! a Panda , by no means is aggressive like a Dragon. A Dragon a very high Defence and a very high attack lvl. has A TAIL TO USE SUNDER WITH as well as what other skills in sage and demon use. this is not world of war craft! RISE THE CAP AND GIVE US QUEST FOR HIGHER LVL. we need some thing other to do than just Dailies and BH`s. this game was suppost to be a adventure and challenging but now its starting to look more like a joke. i have been playing this game for 5yrs know! i have realy enjoyed playing PWI but now you are making me feel like i have waisted my time and money. i figured that the money i invested in this game would have been put to better use by making the barb transformation better suited for this game and fit into the story line of this game. i`m very disappointed and so are many other`s who play there barbs. if you have never asked the players what they wanted and give us the choos to make it sence we play this game. would have been a better choose to save PWI , to me, you didnt do your home work at all. you cheapened it all and you took are fun out of it for us. thank you very much.....the Axe said so

    This week was very crazy. The new form was launched here in PWI, and the PWCN give new informations about the new pet system: http://w2i.wanmei.com/news/gamenews/20130322/69530.shtml


    From what I understood:

    1- The new content will be launched in April,2 in PWCH. So the new system, news pets, news pet's appearances and a lot of other news will be implemmented.

    2- The Monkey King (WuKong) will be a pet for Physical Attacks, and The Haypy (Kunpeng) a pet for Magical Attacks.

    3- Harpy and Monkey King will have new skills. And all of the pets can get two more skills (needs confirmation), 6 skills for each pets. I have a doubt if this is 2 new skills or it is the 2 news customizations: Crazy and Strong. I need confirmations for this.

    4- New pet skills will be implemmented. According the text will be 100 different skills for you mix. (Needs confirmation).

    5- Each pet will have a inherit coeficient based in the main function of this pet. Example:
    Pheonix will have a high inherit coefficient for the attack power, but a low coefficient for the deffense. And the hercules a high coefficient for the deffense but a low coefficient for the attack power. But you can TRAIN the hercules to cause multiple injuries and the phoenix to use defensive and attack skills. I think that that this TRAINING, is the 2 new customizations: "Crazy" (Offensive) and "Strong" (Defensive)

    6- The habitat of the Phoenix and Hercules will be changed. You will can lead them to the land, air and sea.

    7- Pet leveling will be removed. The pet will inherit the master level automatically.

    Along with shorts, tank tops, and mostly all the fashion on the game. I'm sure they didn't cover their swords with corn dogs and socks thinking no one would notice. Gigantic fluffy bunnies and teddy bears were not common either. If you think about it, the only visual effect seen during fighting was splattering blood and lives passing before their eyes, not sparly electricity and fire lol. I agree Kung Fu Panda sucks, especially the eyebrows.
