A Call to Arms

I am extremely grateful to anyone and everyone who has joined this community. Perfect World International is really a great game. I've played a lot of Free to Play games out there, and honestly a lot of them suck.

Perfect World International is definitely engaging. The customization is nuts, the PvP is fun, and just the overall atmosphere of the game is definitely nothing I've ever experienced in any other MMO.

I hope that all of you will enjoy your time in Perfect World International. But more importantly I hope that everyone invites their friends to play. There are a lot of gamers out there who veterans looking for something to play on the side. There are also people who don't like MMORPGs at all, just tell them they have nothing to lose, and it's Free to Play. ;)

Try dropping this analogy on them:
Playing a subscription game is like watching a movie.
You walk up to the box office, you buy the ticket, and you watch the movie...
You walk up to the store, you buy your box, and you play the game...

Now imagine a movie theater that lets you watch the movie, THEN decide if you want to pay for it.

This is a call to arms. I realize that everyone someone hears the word free, there's usually an asterisk on FREE!*

It's time people realize that Free MMORPGs don't have to suck.

Spread the word.

Let's get this community started plz k thx.

    A whole HORDE of people from the other MMO Global MUOnline are coming here. (mostly because that game is boring now because of "no updates", too many hackers, very bad customer support and too many annoying kids -.- and it's p2p)

    I'm here on the forums and active, while the others (so far around 30+ people)are just waiting for closed beta to begin.
    i expect around 50~300 players to move from that game to this ^^ (hoping that the GRINDING is'int a pain)

    I'll be able to give a head count once OB begins. we just want good customer support and "NO HACKERS!" please, it would be much appreciated if you can keep those 2 particular things up, high and shining.

    and lol... trust me the servers are going to be populated once OB begins, I've never seen better visual effects and "fair game play" on such low requirements, the developers did a good job.

    p.s. 1st to reply ^^

    Then again this isn't a Korean MMO. Most of their games are cookie cutter grind fests. Granted PW has it's moments of grinding but not to the point where it's the only thing you end up doing for 75% of the game to level up. BPW took more pride in making a free game more enjoyable. Though there are some aspects of PWE that needs ironing, they don't affect the actual game.

    Sadly, once Star Trek Online or Star Wars Republic Online are released, it's likely I'll trade up even if the service isn't free.

    I believe PW was released in 2005 as a subscription game and changed to a F2P game in 2006. By then, there were several F2P MMO's out there which mostly sucked. Though it initially needs to be purchased, Guild Wars was probably the first quality if not the first MMO that is free to play.

    Levelling past 105 is an abomination. Besides that, though, this game is awesome - I've already invited quite a few to join.

    ... Now, to continue my search for info on the Crescent Valley equipment...

    Well, if it is truly as great as you say it is, then I may be able to attract more than a few players.

    After CB, I will decide if the game and the provider is worthy of my attention :P

    The red 100 weapons are next to impossible to get. Really.

    ... It's cool to be past 105 and such. There's stuff to do, like ID109... It goes to 138, if I'm not wrong.

    Plan well and it's totally possible >.>;;

    And also..that's a good reason for it being the ultimate weapon thus far...

    This is gonna be fun.. >: D I hope you can handle us repeated beta testers! We've tried alot of free mmo's and few have kept our attention. But this game has actually made us excited that its coming out here and heard great things about it. ;) Hope this will exceed our gaming expectations and ADD of free mmos. We all crave for something new and different. Let this be it. >; d

    You never went HH3-3, did you? Have you tried getting 200k rep, either? Yes, it's close to impossible. A plan is only the beginning.

    A whole horde of people are coming from runescape because of the updates, and I don't meant the lack of them. Quite the opposite.

    Anywho I already got like 5 friends to sign up and they all got beta keys and most have the client downloaded. HUZZAH!
