i just tried the english version of perfect world on this site: http://www.perfectworld.com.my

and their where a couple issues that hope the international version does not have.

1. LAG walking around is fine but when ever i try to attack something it does it like 3 seconds later this gets really annoying really fast. and when i was playing it said 330ms was the normal ping? i play WoW and i get like 30ms?

2. The English. holy **** that is the worst translation of English in a game i have ever played.
i found my self skipping reading what the npc`s had to say just because it was like i was talking to a one of those foreign telemarketers that call your house at the most annoying times.

don`t get me wrong i think this game is really good but I will keep playing cabal unless these issues are fixed with the international version.

    Countless numbers of people are leaving the version of PW that you're talking about for those same reasons, so don't feel like you're alone. Everyone is expecting this version to be a LOT better. All of those issues should be gone with the International version. :D

    These are exactly some of the problems that Perfect World International is attacking. We ourselves at Perfect World Entertainment realize the damage that lag incurs with respect to gameplay, and will be sure to provide everyone with lag-free service.

    Secondly, we have been working day and night, in the US and in Beijing to make sure that Perfect World International is 100% fully localized. No more Engrish. ;)

    This is really good news in regards to the lag. There is nothing i hate more then taking an 15 minutes to walk from Rosalind to the merchant because of the lag...A simple 15 min quest in ADC takes a 1/2 to an hour because of the lag. And the Engrish...well that doesn't bother me too much. But the lag is horrible. So yeah this is my major reason for switching to PWI.

    "For the most part" is probably really good. I honestly have no idea, but there'll be a visible improvement for your skill casting. :)

    You can still expect some lag in ADC west, unless you have an uber top of the line graphic card.

    (We are still waiting to see any improvements or changes beign implemented. More empty promises from PWI?)

    So long as the lag doesn't interfere with random KOS, PK, and mob-slaying, then it's fine :cool:

    Well, if you're in western Canada, you're actually not too far away from Malay... But yeah, mostly everybody that plays lags due to the country that it's being hosted in. Distance is less of a factor than most people think.

    Does this include stuff that looks like this?

    "Go fourth and kill 500 blowflies and I will re
    ward you with 10,000 gold nuggets. You are th
    e only hope to reopening the road to Kaka. Y
    ou will need help so I am giving you two new w
    eapons to use. You will also need some panc
    akes and bacon for the trip."


    I understand this being in the MY version because it's just a cheap translation with sloppy justification, but I am expecting something easier on the eyes for the Int version.

    The translation wasn't that good...

    Just an example of the problem I'm hoping gets fixed aside from the poor Engrish.

    I'm bad at maps. That's why I live in Canada - it's so big, I can't possibly miss it :p
