    Interesting, I can see similarities but..I'd also love to know the source.

    Pfft. No. No way.

    If it happens I will eat my words. But even if it did we do not have the people to even fill what we have now. Why would you make the map feel even MORE empty? Seems like a bad idea so obvious even PWI can see it...

    Unless they change the map drastically, no that isn't it.

    Yes, I agree. Although the maps do look similar, if you look close enough, you'll notice that a lot of landscapes don't resemble the current world map. f:hehe

    Maybe if they were to make another version of PWI, with updated graphics and such. f:sneaky

    PWI doesn't need another version, there are games out there that are years old but update their game engine to stay current with their players which change the entire look and feel of the game but its still the core game they played. If PW did something like that I wouldn't argue, in fact I am sure many people wouldn't mind a game engine rewrite so long as it doesn't break the game entirely.

    The similarities in the map are too obvious to say its coincidence, to me though I feel like its just a fans creation. Does look pretty though.

    I can see clearly the current map of PW there. If that was coming up, we would have a map like twice as big.

    The problem is that, besides doing e-cross country there, what else would we do?

    I wouldn't mind a much bigger world map, but there should be something meaningful to do there.

    Agreed. IF, big IF, this was supposed to be an expansion..we'd need a good reason so have such a large map.

    Rumors are going about about two new races but even IF there were two new races to be added, I don't see how they could take up so much space on the map.

    Even if that map is our future, there's no way it would be implemented all at once. If anything, it's like a concept car, a template for many future additions.

    Pretty cool, if it's accurate.

    hmmm

    could be ... couldnt be ... i dont know

    i allways wondered, why they didnt ad morai at the bottom of the actual map. (where we miss a lands) they choose to make it a new map in the current map. so why would they add new stuff now like this now ?

    maybe its an entirely new game ? pwi2 ? who knows... we just got a new mini addon... lets wait and see what the future will bring

    I never said that we need another version, I was just referring to what I've read a long time ago- that there once was (in China) PW1 and that the version of the game we have now is actually PW2. Or perhaps my memory doesn't serve me all that well, I wouldn't really know. f:sweat

    I certainly wouldn't mind that size of our map, but seeing as people are constantly leaving the game, I find it hard to believe that this could actually take place at some point in the near future.

    That would be really cool if a update made the map look like that.

    Too bad there would be almost no people to fill in such a huge world b:chuckle so before pwi can do this they need some new people.

    Go compare the river trails and paths. Mountain ranges, forests, ect. I'd do it myself but right now it's bed time.
