Just wondering how many barbs with the glitch problem have stopped spending real life money and how much ? My wife and I have figured PW loses $50 a month from me not playing my Barb as much. How about you?

    Apparently they have a 'running' in place glitch which pisses some people off. They arent losing any money just because one player decides to boycott a barb. For every man boycotting, he is replaced, there is another customer waiting to cash.

    Oh, that's just silly. b:chuckle


    The poll should have a 0 option and a 1-25 option. b:pleased

    Running in place? That's a new one. Never seen it before. I've been squaded with many Barbs and was never around to see it happen, and I am on everyday. It must be the kind of glitch Venos have sometimes with the Hercs not being able to keep aggro (meaning it dosen't happen often) If the glitch is bothersome try playing a different character.

    The question is how is this glitch losing PW players from buying things in the cash shop?

    I think all classes have that glitch, idk i have one where I have to relog or my character will run in place or if i fly and land it will just do the landing motion over and over till I relog.

    Yes OMG...I should have put a zero option in the poll.But I dont post much, sorry.

    No Tear..I dont think my boycotting using my barb will affect PW, but yes, they do lose money....my money and for everyplayer that quits it is still a player lost, no matter if they are replaced or not, try going to buisness school before trying to understand it.

    Dianocus... It makes me NOT play my barb which means I dont buy charms, upgrade my ride, ect.. And I do play another toon.

    Darkseph...I am not trying to fool anyone.

    I am sorry I have to spell it out for you people. I do not expect PW to fix anything by telling them they are losing money even if it was $ 1,000 a month. They are a big buisness with fresh customers entering every day. Research also shows most people play a game for 6 months and then quit, It simply loses it's appeal and new games come out all the time, so I am about done anyways according to that study. I simply wanted to know how many people out there are dealing with the bug as I am by NOT playing that toon. NO THREATS, NO SCARE TACTICS, NO WHINING, NO FLAMING.
    For those of you who think I am dumb enough to think I am trying to use this to get PW to fix this bug.....Let me introduce you to the dumbest person in the world, Walk over to a mirror and look into it. There ya go.b:laugh

    also knows as the "barb bug" u run in place and froze in air if u jump, using skill will be hard and u'll have to relog everytime it happens, happens to me a lot

    other players in ur team can't see it, that's why most of u don't know it

    Yeah, it gets frustrating b:angry. Worst part is I don't even know what triggers it, so I can avoid it b:sad. Your character just appears to run in a fixed spot, cant move, cant jump, cant fly, cant use any skills (sometimes), and cant even log-off. I end up needing to do a force-log to quit and relog. In the meantime, bye bye b:bye HP charm.

    Gives me a headache when it happens.. it's not running in one spot, who cares... it's running back and forth in one spot causing your screen to shake very rapidly and violently.. when it's happening your skills don't work either so have fun catching a boss the veno is pulling or grabbing mobs from your kamakazi archer in squad.. the running in one spot or just spinning in the air are just plain comical, the back and forth not so much...

    This glitch is new for me, only started after on of the latest patches, and it can be very anyoing expecially when you are doing HH or FB and you can't take the aggro of the boss/mob from the puller b:surrender.

    And you have to restart the game, if you relog often you don't see all the players in the HH/FB (they are there and you can select them but you don't see them, only the tag and their name is something like P1235123).

    I haven't experienced it yet o.o

    But I also don't think PWI is really losing money...Probably more people joining than there are leaving, = $$$

    If I boycott PWI because this glitch, PWI would lose $800 per month. They may not consider that to be much. b:surrender

    Actually, I think the poll as originally worded was for each barb player to indicate how much money they themselves were not spending on PWI because of the glitch.

    the running in place glitch? seems not to really be a game breaking issue, I've played subscription games with running in place glitches before. Our devs are already aware of the issue so they may attempt to resolve it in future patches.

    you mean the running in one spot glitch? im not sure, but i think it happens to everyone..i know it does with me. i have to turn around and come back to where i want to be, when it starts, to correct the glitch. but as a glitch, it doesnt bother me as much as some other things PWI has done, like nerfing venos swimming speed,etc.
    try that trick, and see if it helps, ok?

    Just wondering how many barbs with the glitch problem have stopped spending real life money and how much ? My wife and I have figured PW loses $50 a month from me not playing my Barb as much. How about you?
