Work on lag testing with boss events another time.

Announcing the locations of the bosses and having everyone swarm there is a BAD idea. Even if you have some sort of almighty Google-Class server it would still buckle under the pressure.



Just my two cents.

    1) This is an Open BETA. Which means we test things, and you all test things.

    2) Things happen, then we fix them.

    3) We start again and begin testing some more. :D

    lol darthpanda =]

    naris, remember this is a beta and they need to find out exactially how many people they should allow on one server at once, so durring big events they know how much it can handle so it doesn't crash. That way they know when to start adding new servers, and this is probably the best way for them to do this. Be patient, everything will workout great in the end. =]

    I thought was handled well (even if I got stuck in the lag-loop) and so well done for the quick resolution. I am not sure if any communications did go out during my stucky-ness but if they did I missed them. Perhaps it may have helped a bit more to send us a few system notices - mobs get very annoying and abusive when confused.

    Overall, it was very enjoyable - please may we test again soon? :D

    I am sure there will be many more events during the beta period and after. =] Events are fun and a great way to keep people happy.

    Hi just wanted to let you know that since that post about the Evasion Status its becomming increasingly difficult to enjoy playing Perfect World, Im forced to log out serveral times during gameplay because I cant target and I constantly lose items.This is an incredibly well crafted and designed game and to top it off its F2P
    but I really hope that you can work out these issues quickly. Another challenge i find is that some of the quest directions are sometimes unclear or way off in actual locations on the map north east sometimes is very far from nort east and so much time is wasted searching for just the right spot. Nuff said my first post , Thank you guys for the great work.
