PWI : War Front - The Good / Bad / Broken and not Listed Changes.

cross server ranking finally (after 2 days) shows other servers as well, but judging from the data, the infos we got from the other servers seem to be 24 hours old, at the point of the ranking update.

do they even beta test releases?

They mentioned they have QA team, but if they know game as well as ppl who put wedding rings to promo rewards, I wouldn't count on any serious testing before release ​​

BAD - forced PK mode after NW; reward tokens not mailed any more (i think - as I missed some instruction that said wait inside forever till you see the rewards and I left my big whopping 14 token reward behind)

When you tele back to Wargod Gulch, you should of checked a glowing pillar npc. It was indeed a mailbox.

Server Error is something that happens when the client isn't able to "talk" to the server correctly. The most common cause of it is either bad DNS routing or dropped packets. It's pretty rare for it to occur once the data stream is established, but not unheard of. I've noticed a lot of funky-ness with DNS pathing this past week in regards to the PWI server routes. not entirely sure why it is, but currently I'm blaming AT&T since the issues I'm seeing are mostly occurring on their network nodes.​​

BAD: mirages and celestones are worth 0...but u still have to pay to make celestones into mirages...that makes a LOT of sense... (I want my 40mil that my mirages used to be worth please)

we need the devs to stop #%^&$%^& the coin values of everything I just looked and i lost 20 million because the mirages I saved up are now worth 0. PWI admits they have control over the patches we recieve in the sense that they can request changes. So they best request changes that actually fit our needs. China is nurfing the $%&* out of everything farmable because of their insane bot problem. However what our pw version does not realize is that in doing this it is almost impossible to farm coin now a days. Almost all the coin i could possibly get is comming from other players alone. Now look at this wholistically:

good: no (almost no) coins are being generated on the server. This should help kill inflation and lower prices

bad: Everything that comes from this
1. extremely hard to farm
2. coin circulation is **&&*^* up
3. The entire economy's influx is being based on a real life dollar......................... think about that one and how thats gonna end up
4. Aside from farming pots(which aren't worth much),tt (which nobody really needs because 95%+ existing players by now are G16/r9 and we get essentially no new players), lunar (same as tt), there is no real way to make coin aside from merchanting. BUT WAIT! Merchanting is based on real life dollar (reference problem number 3) and farmable good (reference what I just said)

So what are we left with right now?
A game in which it is nearly impossible to make progress with your character without putting money into the game. An economy in which coin is not circulating properly. The lack of ability to farm coin (not to mention that the "coin you are farming" is comming directly out of another player's pocket).

So I ask, representitives of pw, what is your real plan to fix any of these problems, not to mention the other issues with the expansion such as:
1. cross server payout is way too small, and all the other issues with this. (see other threads)
2. the length of world chat messages have been almost halved.
3. even more coin prices reduced
4. many bugs with the tower (see other threads)
5. insert slew of stuff that still needs to be fixed

How to fix this problem:
Why even bother telling them this, i've offered at least 10 solutions over the past month. Its not like they are actually gonna act on anything said here. Meanwhile, I believe I speak for the community when I say, the community is dying because of company greed and if these problems are not fixed soon the community will disappear.

Because PW seems only speak in terms of money, i'll clearify: no community/no happy community = no money. To be honest i'd love to sit down with just one of the guys from the top of this company and just ask the simple question: Do you even play the game you run? Because the obvious answer appears to be no since they have absolutely no idea of the issues we have, and furthermore, it seems impossible to reach them.​​

Do we know for certain it will be a boutique item? I was kinda wagering on it being a new ultra rare pack item.

It's a boutique item in China. Reasonable to assume it will be here also.

Since the introduction of the PWI : War-front Expansion - chat box character limit has been significantly reduced. to barely a sentence. I want to know if this is something that is aware of and is planned on being fixed. Because this has become a highly irritating issue especially as a merchant attempting to sell my farmed goods and get cut off prematurely mid-sentence.

An update on this would be appreciated. ​​

Updated the OP for Heero200​​

I think I found out the error of towers doors sometimes closed when enter a new floor.
When you complete a floor and stand on the place that start/activate the room, it will automatically start the next floor as well as soon you teleport there. Door will be closed and you cannot enter the room, meanwhile timer is running.

>.> the jones blessing code no longer works

I think 4 bosses are not bugged. I also thought they are, but later i noticed, that i actualy havent killed a boss. its easy to mis, cause when he has 1hp you still need to cast 1-2 hits to finish it. and if it is not dead completley - you can not harm the other boss.

You got kicked out because the instance resets at 7:00 am Wednesday.

You're supposed to avoid those walls of fire and poison and such, not charm tank them.

The only real bug I've found is that sometimes the bosses of room 9 and 18 will "reset" forever and you can't damage them. To fix this you have to town portal and go outside the instance (all the way out to Lothranis), then the quest will fail and you can start those floors again.
