Hello Everyone,

We would like to announce the launch of our new forum, PWI site, and Perfect World Entertainment Portal site.

Now if you go to www.perfectworld.com you'll be greeted with our new portal site as well as a teaser site for our new title "Ether Saga Online".

Now we realize that the forums may not be the prettiest at the moment, but rest assured we are far from done with the forums. Over the next month we will be redesigning and reorganizing these forums in order to match the new design of the PWI site.

Have a look around, there are a lot of great new features on the PWI site, such as a cash shop information page where you can get a better look at items before you purchase them. There are also ranking pages for levels as well as PvP Kills.

We hope that you guys enjoy the new site, and any and all feedback is welcome.

    I thought I was at the wrong site and kept checking the URL for 5 minutes until I was sure I hadn't mistyped. As with all positive change, it's growing on me. And I'm so curious about that 3rd game that says "Coming Soon"...

    I got to the bottom of the thread hoping to find a link back to the forums so I didn't have to scroll up to the top of the page. Guess I have to keep hoping it's put in eventually.

    i think it looks very nice. kudos to everyone at PW who worked on it. b:victory


    only thing i'm not too keen on is all the flash on the header and on the main site. i don't have problems viewing flash (at least normally) i just have never been a fan of sites that use so much flash or "flash overkill" as i tend to call it, lol. and i really don't like flash "links". i often like to view different areas of a website in new tabs (right click "open link in new tab" with firefox) and i can't do that with flash links. =( it looks spiffy and impressive but it just gets old when you're on a site for a long time, frequently changing pages, refreshing, etc.


    that's just my opinion tho, for simply "user feedback" purposes for PW. =)


    oh and one other thing. can we get some better smileys? i love these bears but man they look crappy with all that white crud on their edges against the black background. b:shocked XD

    OK so with the new site when I try to look at my referrals it tells me I have none! Did it reset everyone's referrals, or will that be updated with the right info?

    Ive searched around and cant find this "ranking" system.

    Can anyone help me out an tell me where it is?

    The new site latout though looks good. Personally I liked the old way alot better, cool your trying to do some advertising for your next game but when I go to a game website, Im going to that game website. I dont want to hear about other games. Theres way to much flash, it would be cool if yall would either turn down the flash, or implement a way for us to view it in the old way. I normally keep the website running as I play the game cause I tend to bounce between the game, the forums, and my guild forums. But now it seems to slow me down a bit. I agree with jollsi as it is a bit messy.

    Good idea though. But dont fix something that isnt broke.

    EDIT: I found the ranking system. Found out going to perfectworld.com is no longer goin to this game website, you have to add some extras into it. Me no like. -.-

    Also the rank system I like it, finally able to see the competition. But 50 players? How many players easily play this game, quiet a bit. I think there should be a top 100-300. or atleast a function were we can view such.

    Well, the main page of www.perfectworld.com looks good, yet a bit childish and generic. I've seen tons of websites of MMORPG's with the same format, especialy the cartoon Game Download and Zen Charge icons. Although I like that its straightfoward and organized. I would suggest tweaking the color scheme to make it look a bit more attractive. For me the site colors of white, a bit of red and a hint of blue seems a bit plain. The Perfect World game webpage looks a lot better. The Venomancer had a makeover and found another bird! It used to be darker and was less appealing. Now we have more game related decorations that catches your eye immediately. But the looking glass thats right in the middle of the screen makes the page a bit too gaudy. Don't get me wrong, I like it but it just dosent fit very well with so many links and boxes that are already in there. The forum pages looks tightly packed, its hard to locate a thread with the spaces between them so small/nonexistant. Good job guys, its definitely an improvement!

    Personally, I love the new design! Once I realized what was going on, I was hooked. I enjoy seeing the new pics of the toons...I was getting a little tired of the same ones over and over. Nice job, I think the thing that bothers me the most has been addressed enough. (forum topic spacing)

    Wonderful job!!!

    Oh, have www.perfectworld.com as a portal is definitely a great hook for your new games...I am already looking forward to them!

    I had to check I was on the right site, hadn't been there for a week and then BAM a new website and forum design. I was so shocked, to be honest I didn't have anything wrong with the old one, the layout was... easy once I was used to it and I liked the design. Considering I only saw this just a while ago I still don't know what I think of the new layouts etc, but I'll see when I continue seeing it. :) Thanks for the effort though!

    I prefered the old one it was very... shiny

    This one is nice to it just looks a bit.. flat u no
    Its more like a picture than something to interact with

    Dont get me wrong its a very nice website ^^
    Its just not as shiny and interactive..ish

    Also i think u need to put somewere a bit of info on the cash shop items

    e.g. were u get the ones in your trailers that i can never find ^^
    So for my bad spelling ^^
