To settle this rumor once and for all...about rebirth 3-10.

Is there such a thing in production relating to rebirth 3-10 or are there only gonna be 2? I remember a lot of people talked about more rebirths at some point when it was fresh.

There is 10 rebirths in the game, and as you know just 2 are unlocked.
Whenever they unlock the rest (if they ever do) nobody knows yet, and I believe they are still working on them as well.

Next content update there are no sign of rebirth 3, but a expansion of the sky level.

People had only said the code was build to allow ten rebirth... Maybe the third one will appear in 2 years or maybe never. I guess even PWCN don't know yet.
Nobody has ever said that a third rebirth would be available soon

I suppose this was discovered via translation of the Chinese website?

Oh that makes sense...but how would one see the code?

Gona clear points:

1. No 3rd rebith now or in a 6 months timespan (aprox. time of PWCN to reach us, they don't have it either)

2. Code can be decompiled or inspected, it's prepared for 10 awakenings but it doesn't mean it's gonna happen. Game is ready to reach lvl 150 but we know it's not happening ever (it was just implemented to give mobs the (?) attribute for calculating dmg returns, stealth and such things. (? ain't a number and that messes forumlas, ? = 150). I'd bet we won't be seeing that in a LONG time

3. New primal passives reaching lvl 10 on this patch as well as a new boundary that will virtually force everyone to do all primal dailies for months (unless the new legendary quests give an insane amount of Vitae, but the scaling of Vitae for the new boundary is completly insane with current dailies, yet to see the news...)

Just to clear this up some...

The level cap was originally set at 150 because that was where the original developers had envisioned taking the game to. Along with a map large enough to support 5 cities like Archosaur.

When Wanmei purchased the game from Archosaur Studios, they re-wrote the experience table to compress levels 100-150 into levels 100-105. Because of the way they did that, we will never be able to achieve a higher level than 105 without breaking every existing character over level 99.
To get around that, they designed Rebirth.

We'll never see level 150 in this version, with the exception of possibly after they completely re-design the game on the Angelica 3 engine. (Which is currently being worked on in development.) Technically that would be a different version anyway, that would be Perfect World Version 3. (We're currently on version 2)

Interesting information indeed, ty for clearing that point ^^ ALways good to learn a bit more

Btw, about PW3, there's no ETA that I'm aware of... Any think on your side? (6-months-for-China-let's-start-a-crazy-rumour )

~swoon~

Can't believe they're actually working on putting it on PWI. If that's true than this game might just live a little longer.

R&D started on around October-November last year. I haven't heard anything on it beyond that, and I imagine it's going to take quite a lot of work to port. My current guesstimate is for a CN release around Christmas, and we'll likely see one a few months later with several location bugs.
