    Regarding balancing, more will be revealed over the coming weeks. ;)


    These houses that can be built. Can other people attack them and demolish, or loot it?
    I havent seen a game with housing system that allows that bro
    All the more reason they should implement it.
    Why would they ever let people wreck somebodys house? Its asinine idea to allow houses being destroyed by other player as nobody would be spending money to upgrade their houses because some jerk would just wreck them during mia hours(sleep/work/etc).
    Right there, thats why. Dont want your house to be wrecked, gotta spend real money. Good money grab for PWE.

    Well, we don't know yet how long it takes to farm the new weapons. Maybe they'll put the materials in the boutique or maybe there are no changes in how you farm the weapons and PWCN just made changes on the weapons' stats. If they are hard to get and require a long time, we won't see too many around for a good while.



    Though there are also the skills to consider, and I don't know how they will affect the balance. Looking at you Duskblades. ಠ_ಠ

    Since PWI might also have CN R9 conversion, any sin here interested in aps built ? CN R9.3 weapon for sins have -0.1 interval, and so does G17R4/5.

    R9.3 aps sin still hurts with huge base atk and high crit for zerkcrit proc. Atk Level 70 on weapon alone + Zerk Crit can generate 70x4=280 atk level.

    Aps still applies to a lot of instance like tt and ws where the majority source of income for a lot of people. No aps ATM only applied in fsp/pvp/tw/NW.

    Oh yeah... Almost forgot... we're also releasing PWI on Steam :)

    I saw this announcement on Steam....I couldn't stop laughing. I guess it was just a matter of time...the game is pretty dead isn't it? LOL! :p

    The point is genius that people say aps no longer applied and yet tt and ws is the majority income resource for a lot people now days bc everything else is nerf. So that the point pvp yea aps don't applied ever since cards and chart came out. Where else u gonna farm? Herbs that gone down as well, drops? Previous comment applied. Aps still a go to method.

    Dead enough to where we still after almost 8 years have a large and strong player base? Dead enough to merit a regular schedule of expansions and content?

    well @thenamesdomino you really dont know anything about the player base, i have to agree with @honeychyld71 this game is dead and this expansion is the last chance for pwi :) if this dont revive the game nothing will. give a transfer stone to player in boutique so players can move to the server they like. and instead of bringing old Nation war as i heard please keep it this way and make it random. remove the GS and reduce the charm cost so players can pvp more. make Rb 1 and Rb 2 easy give new players more free stuff help them catch up with other players. no wonder lots of players left pwi to p.s. wake up pwi wake up you lose players every month.

    Questions:

    Why, 8 years after launch, are we just now getting the housing system?
    Why is limited to players level 90 or higher?

    The original housing system, to my knowledge, worked with items obtainable from doing world quest, which you got at level 70. So, obviously this new housing system isn't anything similar to what should have been available since launch from Fall of 2008.

    I have to agree. Even before the announcements of housing and the Steam release the game was going through a kind of "revival" period again. It's never been stagnant, but it is true that we hardly get any actual new players lately. What I have been seeing is a huge amount of people returning to the game that left it 2-3 years ago.

    It's been fun teaching them Morai, new classes, and the Rebirth system. If only cross-server even timing wasn't so messed up, it would be a lot better.​​

    It's dead enough to have employees reply comments like this instead of posting maintenance threads and giving updates on events (and the plushie thing)

    If anything is for sure then it's that PWE has no clue how to handle their player base.
    Also, expansions are made and given to you by China, PWE has very little to do with that.

    Also, 5 alt accounts used by the same person doesn't create a large player base either.

    It's a circle of same old same old:
    1. Get a (new) CM
    2. Starts great, actually seems to do something and communicate (read give updates about things)
    3. lol jk it's the same as always after a few weeks/months
    4. Get barely any updates about anything
    5. CM leaves out of the blue
    6. a few months pass, go back to step 1​​

    add to everything that has been said that it looks like the CS part of G17 has begun and who the heck knows where this will all end up...

    'Adamantine Powder x50
    Upgrade your Rank 9 gear even more! This item is Pre-Order exclusive and will not be found anywhere else!

    Orichalcum Ingot x10
    Upgrade your Rank 9 gear even more! This item is Pre-Order exclusive and will not be found anywhere else!
    "

    now we have to pre-order items that we have no idea how to use or what the impact will be... sometimes these guys surprise even me...

    lol this is Hilarious,
    28$ for a +6 and +5 orb bound ok that's fair maybe, but the rest lol, idk what the 5 home pills are gonna be worth, and something tells me, time will make this useless any way. 10 War avatar catalyst, lol I pitty the fool who tries for a S pack, Oh you can get 1 lv on your leadership, has a secound lv will require you to get 10 more. and OMG +10 P att / m att, WOW really WOW this is AMAZINGLY USELESS !

    68$ for a +7 and a +6 orb bound, sound fair also, but why make the 1st pack over lap the 2nd one, you should have made it +5 and +4 orb, so a player get +4 to +7 easy. Change the name of your house, probably a good expance considering how much it cost to change other names in the game. Home pills and deocoration.. again over time it will come free, and for an exclusive item, it kinda looks stupid.

    128$ OMG lol +8 and +7 bound. pufff ! And a super rare mount that PW will take about 1 year to make common, they always did that why should they change, LIMITED EDITION of useless item to **** YOUR WALLET !, name change for your house, oh wow same has middle pack. And R9 mat upgrade that YOU CAN FIND ANYWHERE ELSE.

    So does that mean i can't upgrade my r9 if I don'T buy your pack ! Puffff !

    I have something unique on all the tip of my fingers, 1 in special i'm thinking about, IF you want my money, give me something worth spending for.

    Seriously? Large and Strong player base? Maybe the Chinese version, not the one we play. Dead accounts shouldn't be included in the words "Large and Strong player base". Redo the accounts check you did, and see what ones have been active in the last 2 months compared to the 8 year span that you obviously gave it.
    People have numerous accounts. I have friend lists across my toons where people haven't been on in years. This is why PWE implemented the "Invite a Friend" to get old players back, because you guys know you are lacking in a player base. In my experience, if someone does return, they don't stay. Game mechanics is the same as it has always been, and are too far behind to catch up unless they drop a house down payment into the game.
    A large and strong player base, wouldn't have needed that big server merger you guys did not long ago, which only hurt the player base numbers even further.
    Not to mention what has happened in the offices as well. All these things are pointing to a dying game, not a strong one.

    Your regular schedule of expansions are put out by China, not PWE.
    Content? Some newest things in game, Star Chart, Meridian, and Avatar cards, are all essentially the same thing.
    New content is new things to do, not new items in boutique to spend real money on.
    New bosses, new caves, new instances, random events. This is what the player base want. Not some little thing that can be run through in a couple of minutes. I know this isnt up to PWE, but dont say you offer expansions and content when China is the one doing it. Even private servers cater more to their player base then PWE does.

    Didn't you even say when you first became a CM that you hadn't even played PWI before and just started? or was that a different CM?




    and LOL at preordering the new things? Is that for real?

    **Edit. Yup its for real. You want players to pre order stuff, that you can't guarantee is going to work? You guys are out of your mind. And who ever pre orders, I am sure you already bought your extra chromosome.

    How is that gona work... lanch steam to lanch arc to lanch PWI ?? how do I redeem inside steam for blessing ???

    You forget about Arc, and just DL the client and launch via Steam. I do this with FW now since I can't run Arc on dev builds of Win10.​​

    lol and arc just came out whit exp to make money for there game, So they are lanching on Steam , but at the same time they make an Arc 3.0 so ppl long in it instead of bypassing it, like I have done since it existed, Man this is so confusing, I'm so glad I burn it on a cd and I put it in the trash, when 3.0 came out. Cause that's where it's going.

    And don't expect ppl to give PW good review on Steam. This game is boring, cause you can't earn unless your already in it since the start. I have recruited about 50 new players, and after spending 1 week explaning and encouraging them, they quit, no because of the guild or ppl or time. Because the economie is ****.

    It's going to work just like our other games on Steam. Launch steam and launch the game :) you dont need arc if you dont want to, however all of our codes still must be redeemed on arc; note however, you still need an arc account to play.
    lol that's so useless, any game can be added to steam...

    Well at least you get some publicity.

    All I can say is if people wanna put more coin in this game its fine with me but I'm not gonna do it anymore

    As someone that's been playing here every day since beta, all I do anymore is dailys anyway

    So, to put it short and sweet this expansion is useless for me, just like the last few that came down the pike

    @thenamesdomino bro pls we need confirmations about those adamantine and orichalcum, are those necessary to get china r9r3 parts or are those g17 related?
    are those going to have insane chienkun costs to combine at the 1280 gold mat-cost per piece to be able to keep refines?
    cause if so this sale will be a complete fiasco, china r9r3 its not an upgrade, its more like a side-grade, doesnt really improve that much, those costs won't justify such gold expense.
    in china this sidegrade is coming almost for free, just few mil coins forge fee... why are we getting a 1280 gold cost on this, domino pls

    +1 to this
    @thenamesdomino
    A clarification on this matter would be really nice.
    Many people put a lot of real money and/or time on refines, so it would be really bad if they have to pay that chienkun fee for something they paid in the past.
