    According to Mmobomb the expansion is supposed to happen on November 11.

    http://www.mmobomb.com/news/perfect-world-international-war-front-expansion-coming-november-11/

    Mmobomb says and I quote: '' Perfect World Entertainment announced today that the seventh expansion for the free-to-play MMORPG PWI will arrive November 11.'' and at the end of the article it says and I quote again '' More information on PWI’s latest expansion is... and they put a link to the PWI site. The thing is that on the site there is no date anounced for this new expansion and no more information. The thing is that Mmobomb gives more information than PW site. Mmobomb mentione cross server nw while PW site talks only about the new instance So Mmobomb should give more information from were they have this date and other info.One i hope the date of 11 november is false. I dont know for how much time PWI os preparing this expansion but I feel like 11 november is to soon. I hope it doesnt come untill middle of december.
    The exact same thing happened with the last major update. PWE didn't give us anything more than vague hints, and MMOBomb had the exact take (Although last time their article actually listed two dates that were on either side of the maintenance window.)

    If MMOBomb says it's coming on the 11th, I bet it's coming on the 11th.
    Keep in mind, that the China dev team that writes our product, already released this in their version 4 months ago. After that, most of the work is merely translating it to English and testing for our specific version.
    >After that, most of the work is merely translating it to English and testing for our specific version.
    And they can't do either of the 2 right.
    Our version of the game is a test on its own it seems sometimes.​​

    LOL!

    WoW PWE has a real Press Problem. I dono. Tower looks interesting. S Vs S looks Neat. Wonder what time this is gonna be. How long until the rankings does not work. Thats one of the most annoying things I find about this game.

    Questions questions. Tho ill update the first post with the info.​​

    You prolly missed it when he checked his inv? Its maxed archer with CoM, with so many astrobana pearls(100+) on inv I guess his chart is maxed too. Would only make sense they got cards of that level too. All in all, its pretty damn geared archer and even pretty geared seekers is gonna take hella lot damage from it.

    Is cross server NW replacing normal NW or are we going to have both NW and cross server NW?​​

    Cross-server NW is held twice a week. Normal NW was twice a week. China only ever had cross-server NWs. I think its safe to assume its going to be replacing our inferior version.

    I am pretty curious what role the commander will play. Can it be just glorified position to tell ppl where to go or does it have some actual strategic decisions involved in it?

    Updated main thread with new info. Spoilers are the images thought it would help cut the first post down a little.

    Looking good to me but still no hard date.​​

    MMOBomb says it's coming on the 11th, and given today's news, I figure that's probably accurate.

    If Battle for Treasure Island is going to be a real thing, PWE damn well better start enforcing their own rules regarding TW bidding and account sharing. Otherwise it's just utterly pointless.​​

    Yer good luck with that... Its to late now they have let it lapse for too long.

    Agreed with the 11th would just be nice to hear a direct source.​​

    does anyone have legit information on what the bloody treasure cross server territory war rewards and end of season rewards are? Like is it anything extremely worth that may end up altering the server cause only few factions can go or is it something neglectable like many other things?​​

    It's not neglectable at all unless they have changed the reward for our version and basically means anyone in a smaller guild that wants to do server vs. server will have to join a bigger one. Especially since they are not resetting the map yet.

    Or in other words, smaller guilds will need to put aside their egos and not cause drama to either merge into one guild or merge into a bigger one if they actually want to survive. Which is hard for most of them since they are usually smaller due to no one wanting to deal with them.

    Or it's because the smaller factions like to play in a friendly environment, without the drama and e-peen of the larger guilds.

    Maybe if the larger factions didn't act like douches intent on ruining the game for others more people would want to join them.

    Yes this can be the case as well and that's just fine. But it's obviously not the case for Boomz and his guild.

    I am worried about the cross server NW. What time is it going to run on Europe server? In middle of night? Will you take regular NW from us and force us to play at 4AM instead?

    .​​

    Actually this has basically been confirmed. PWIs twitter has link to article, which states the expansion launching on 11th. Its not the same as arc news but close enough. And as we got sneak peeks 2 days apart, evidence seems to support this date.

    Twitter is not official. MMOBomb is not official. Announced by PWE here in the forum or Arc is.
    I'm sure the data is correct, but it's far from official.​​

    Ohh I didn't realize they were going to enable the NW commander stuff. That's pretty interesting. The UI for that has actually been in the client since NW was introduced but it's always been hidden (unless you know your way around the debug console).

    This is the related stuff I know about:

    These are the debug commands if you want to play with it and know how to use the debug console:
    d_showdialog Win_KingAuctions
    d_showdialog Win_KingShow
    d_showdialog Win_KingOrder
    d_showdialog Win_KingSet
    d_showdialog Win_KingVote

    so back to the original question because i don't care about all the other random stuff... I just want to know what the SvS tw rewards are. Also, we do know what the servervserver nw will be:
    1. it will replace old nw
    2. 4 servers will be involved
    3. nw token total rewards increased to roughly 1.2million, that is a 17x increase for a 4-5x gain in players.
    4. if your someone who tends to get say 250 per nw, you will be getting easily 800-1000 or more.​​
