PWI Girl Power! Ask the Devs your questions here!

Given Domino's example as to an industry populated by men, how did you all manage to become an all female team and not a single male? Or rather, how many roles are there to fill? Was the hiring person fond to females or were your qualifications far better than that of other candidates, including males and other females.

Personally where I reside and previous places I worked... the female staff tend to back stab each other to certain points of termination. Do you have that atmosphere? Or are you all friends that small things wouldn't be a bother?​​

First all of, hello and thanks for your hard work in these games. Since i've started playing PWI i always wanted to be a part of the staff which made me thinking of studying computer engineering (i am a senior right now wanting to study that). And knowing that the staff includes mostly woman makes me even become more confident in myself. I have lots of in mind right now but i will just keep it short Was it hard for all of you to come where you are right now and what stages you have been through to come where you are right now? And also what i should focus on my studies so i can become great developers like you all. Again thanks for everything

1: why is the canned answer from customer service either we don't see the issue or we'll follow up with the Devs?
Either way, they never actually answer a question or resolve an issue they just push the buck to you and close the ticket

2: is it possibly for someone to **** an account and PWI not detect it?
I've been told we didn't see it so you couldn't possibly have had your bank ****. It's a sad state they think you guys are
more impregnable than anyone one else so it didn't happen if we can't detect it

are you ever going to fully expand and complete the main map in the game? theres alot of blank space.

Yea for the Girrrlllz! I am first wondering how many of you there are!

I am interested in a few things which are interconnected in my mind:
1. Why are all the female char's clothes so sexy compared to male chars? A few more normal but pretty looking outfits that don't show so much skin on female chars, please. We have the sexy ones---by the way I liked the faction uniform fash and just wish it came in more colors or was less expensive-it was nice to have the temp fash but now I want it forever in red.
2a. Do you ever play the game and 2b. note all the misogyny spewed in World Chat and 2c. devise ways you can do something to ameliorate that in your position(s)?
3. Are you familiar with GamerGate and what are your thoughts on this?

I am a real woman in real life and congratulations on being (what I perceive as) a unique group!

why does pwi not have onsite GMs on the ONLY 4 servers we have. any modern MMORPG has 16-24 hour live gm support on-server with deal with issues, do events all the time, ban people, etc.​​

1. Are the questions going to be answered just by text in this thread or there will be a video with Q&A session and real girls doing their daily activities in the game industry ?

2. What positions are these women in the operations, customer service, programmer, artist, or else ? (name them all)

3. Is the business contract between developer and publishers the same all over the world ? Like for example :
-publisher has to pay x% for every boutique item sold, or
-developer just sell license, provide expansion with a price periodically and that's it, how publishers do business is totally up to them, or
-else ?

4. How much is an expansion for PW, I'm curious, like for example Riptide expansion, Warfront expansion, or the latest Elysium expansion ?

5. Since this game is all about dailies and more and more dailies everytime you girls hatched a patch, now it's only fair if I ask how is your dailies in the company xD ? please describe your daily routine there.

Woohoo! Domino, this is a loaded thread.

1. It's already been asked a couple of times, but seriously, WHEN are they going to update the client engine to Angelica III like they stated they brought Archosaur Group dev's back in November of 2013 to do?
I mean, seriously, it's been well over two years, and it's not like it's a major client re-write for it.

2. WHEN is PWE going to start staffing support appropriately for the large number of games it has currently published? A couple of the games used to have their own support teams still, but lately I'm finding this is no longer the case. It's my understanding that we have approximately 20 people supporting close to 18 different titles on multiple platforms with millions of players each. I don't care how you do the math, that just sucks. Which is why @tictic99999 we don't have active GM's online. There aren't enough to even have one per game and manage tickets. That's not even counting having one on each server. You would need to hire a minimum of 100 more people for support to do that.

3. WHEN is Wanmei going to start focusing more on fixing bugs, and less on useless content?

4. WHEN are the classes going to get skill graphic upgrades? This is another thing that was promised over two years ago when the original dev's were brought back in.

5. WHEN are the older classes going to get the ability to cast while moving? Yet another things that was stated would happen over a year ago when the new classes were introduced. (Along with re-balancing the original class skills to update them more in line with the Two newer races.)

There's an awful lot of stuff that Wanmei said they would work on, and do. Sadly, all we have is more broken content, and more ways to blow money on the game.​​

Ohh also when we reborn for the first time i notice we ger armor and a legacy weapon be nice if it was a full set legacy armor and weapon and it says non refinable you ever think about makeing the legacy ra gear and weapon refinable?

Why is there a Huuuuuuuuuge lack of gm presence throughout the forums and steam forums. (and has always been )

There is a plan that we're going to be putting into place that still is waiting on approval and modifications by the stakeholders, so until they finally sign off on it, I cannot give any details. Needless to say steam's launch is going to be a celebration.

Still nothing? This game is so god darned dead, played PEAK HOURS lv 1 to 80. Havent been able to find a single squad ONCE untill lvl 80, now i can get together half a pv squad if im lucky. just give us 90 pills othervise people will get bored with leveling alone, this game was sooo much fun when we could play together and get squads at all levels. BUT when we are forced to play singleplayer as it is now. there just isnt any point to it, people get bored quick.

and no we wont get people to play low lvls again, just wont happen, didnt even with steam release, so lets just accept it and give out free lv90 pills.


So as i said still nothing? can we get some word on if this "plan" will be put into place or if they declined it?

hi il cut to the point.

1> Was it hard to get to were You are today?
2> Does the work you do make you feel happy and satisfied at all times?
3>As a female do you ever feel a sense of discrimination at times?
4> Do you feel Happy with how PWI portrays Women and the Fashions that PWI has with them?
5> Lastly , What do you think of the Current state of the Game?
