v182 Update discussion thread.

As I registered in 8/14/08 I should have gotten the mount. However, I went to my mail just now and nothing. Is there something I'm missing or should I submit a ticket?

Game has gone to hell. Ever since the first CS sale late July (if i remember right) Gold prices in AH have not been the same, and now at the highest that I'm sure anyone has ever seen. I place the blame not on the players, but the people who run and make the game. IF they really cared enough there would of been a cap on gold by now. NOT once have i spent money on gold, nor will i ever after this massacre! I have done every bit of farming and grinding for my gold and goodies. I praise the game a lot... well i did. THE best mmorpg i have ever played, but the economy of the game has made me to decided to stop playing until this **** gets fixed (if ever)

I think it's really unfair that only players who registered before Sept. 08, 2008 get free stuff. I mean I know there is double exp and stuff but I think even new players deserve rewards for just choosing to play this game. People might not require perks like free stuff to stay in a game but it certainly would make people happy. I'm not talking about Cash Shop items dropping from monsters (that would be unfair to players who spent real money buying them) but just like, anniversary themed items. Perhaps special anniversary themed pots that recover HP and MP instantly or anniversary pets or anniversary fashion. The drop rate would have to be tinkered with of course but it would at least be showing the players that you cared about their happiness and that they are rewarded for playing whether they invest real money in the game or not. They could have even done different rewards for people who have been playing for different amounts of times. So like if you have been playing for a year, this is what you get, if you have been playing for 9 months, you get some other thing, etc. This game is ultimately a business and should be run like one, so they should give out more free things and rewards like other big companies/stores with point systems for rewards or something. I have played my share of MMORPGs and for the amount of time I have played this game, other games would have had many more events giving out free rewards. It is the anniversary of this game, I thought that should mean something to the people running this game. Therefore perhaps they should feel more grateful and generous towards all players, not just the older players.

This game goes into S H I T S. A few more stupid events like this and GM will be here alone...This is serious...


Once I said that PWI not leave, that I put into it a lot of time and effort, but I left PW for now, maybe for ever!!!!

A lot of people do not like this sux patch....Developers and managment THINKING FOR NEXT TIME


Maybe you got more dollars but this is cruel end PW
b:bye

Very well said. Its just one big disappointment to all the players after all this most of the players are getting slaps in the face instead of a yay thank you all for playing with us and keeping us alive

<----Frequent lurker.

Just chiming in to say that I love the new mount. I may not have a free one since I'm a relatively new player, but it'll be nice to see something that looks frikkin evil. I Bet the auction house is going to be jam-packed w/ those. GJ on that PWI.

I think this whole thread is useless. Its not like the devs read pwi forums. The GMs just tell them what we're complaining about and half the time the devs dont care/listen.

I'm not disappointed. I figure I'll probably get my turn next year.

Had they not spammed us mercilessly with CS sales and finally this event, they would have saved a lot of the player base.

I highly doubt this is the last sell we will see. Once October comes around there will be new clothing and then with December they are more than likely to through a ton of more **** in CS. If they need more money, they should stick to their best game, and not be making two (or maybe even more games.) [Seen previews for JD2 ALREADY, and imo, JD just sucks] If it is a want, they are just as greedy as the players are in game. Shame Shame

At the rate they are going dear there Will Not be a next year. The game economy is a large issue and by doing what they just did and pissing off the lvl 80s and more they just screwed up. If they don't fix the economy of the game the game will not celebrate another birthday it will die. All their work will be for not because they killed the game with greed before they could add different features like maybe better custom buttons and things to attract new players or even fix the bugs they have not fixed.
Also, this patch seems bugged good enough for me I've had my screen error out 3 times within a 6hours max and I wasn't even fighting anything just sitting in one place.
They messed up and that is all there is to it.

Again I point out how many people said the exact same thing about Neopets 4 years ago when Viacom bought them, and the site is still alive and kicking today.
