    Just a question I've asked in other threads.

    Is there/will there be somewhere you can open the chip packs in bulk?

    Currently you can go to 1K and talk to the Mysterious Merchant and open the other chip packs in quantities of 50 or 100, but those are packs of 10, not the packs of 15 that are sold in the boutique.

    Opening over 20K packs to get my R9 gear is going to take a loooooooooonnnnnnng time.b:sad

    Don't worry, these are important issues that might even warrant an emergency maintenance in the next 48 hours or so

    awwwwwwww bad pwi staff bad! this maintenance / sale made so many people want to quit... it looks like all 100-lvls who farmed very long for their gear will be passed easy by heavy cash shoppers and newcomers who dont invest money in this game have a REALLY bad chances to buy gold at that prices.
    I hoped that packs sale would be over soon and now thisb:beatenup
    I really doubt that the new classes, maps and all you add will recover damage done to this gameb:surrender

    great christmas event...................

    A faction member told me there is ZERO cat shops for cannies/raptures a few hours ago in RT b:surrender

    Good,could never get in a squad thanks to the 5.0apscraze,their mats were too expensive imo,now i can just say f u to them and buy my gear from pw without lining the 5.0 guys pockets.

    On the other hand the game might have just been killed so i'm not sure if i should feel happy or sad :(

    This game failed completely, finally the goal was reached. No more fb, grinding, farming or any kind of effort.In fact no need to play anymore, just buy everything. All the players out there who really enjoy to play better to look for another game.PWI needs no players, only needs big credit cards.

    Actually, PWI only screwed their best customers who paid a lot of money as they only had Rank 8 before. Well there was those chuck norris type farmers but they were small minority. Now casual cashshoppers got rank 8, which kinda is slap to the face of those good customers. Imo it`s not good marketing to **** those off, it`s just shooting yourself on the leg. But who am I to complain, got my rank 8 for 72 gold and with the current gold prices, leftover gold is making me rich. I`ll get rank 9 next year when it gets down to under 100 gold, like the absurd move with rank 8 got. You can always count on PWI, they will **** biggest cashshoppers over and over again.

    When I was saying the game was no longer skill based but had become gear dependent I was laughed at and accused of QQing. So forgive me if it now find more than amusing that the very same people who were making fun of me now doing the same bs b:chuckle.

    Seriously game economy etc aside this new development simply exemplifies and amplifies a long running problem that those who were topside chose to arrogantly ignore. So here it is now:

    1. Stop qqing cause you can't afford r9
    2. be thankful for the cash shoppers, they are keeping the game alive
    3. Learn to merchant
    4. Realise I have to work hard in real life to earn the cash to keep this game running
    5. Go level up in real life so you can afford r9 too
    6. etc etc

    I'm not really sorry either because when we were pointing out the dangers of having a gear focused game we were laughed at, well here:

    R9 for anyone with a credit card.

    The only thing im sorry about is the cash I spent already that I could have saved so I could purchase my r9 now but keep this sale going and I can go earn enough rl cash in a few days to purchase it. Got a few arrogant people I wanna smack with a r9 weapon.

    By the way here a some new in game world chat lines:

    1) lvl3 EndGame faction recruiting members, R8 and R9 only accepted!
    2) lfs nirvana, wait what for? lol, we got rank gear
    3) Gold in AH come quick, only 1.5 mil
    4) Wts perfect iron hammer ..................gotcha
    5) lfs...........oh no ones playing, nvm
    6) EndGame faction is challenged by ........... oh right, no one.
    7) Wts lunar claws ......5 mil, pleaseeeeeeee.

    Gl PWI, everything that happens here serves you right. I remeber the good old days of nix/ream qq. You should have paid attention to us whiners back then. Arrogance is a heck of a thing.

    guys just use common sense. if you dont want to pay 1mil+ for gold just dont buy it. all you have to do. What sense does it make for a seller to sell something that people cant buy/wont buy. If that's the case the price come down.... duh.

    This is unbelievable.

    PWE has many times done things that I didnt like, but I still supported the game. Now anyone who charges 72 gold can get Rank 8? Your kidding, right?

    This is worse than a private server. At least there, you had to farm for it.

    Im insulted, angered, saddened.....

    Rollback is a must. If anyone in the PWI department wants to keep their jobs.

    I understand PWE is a business and sales are used to generate money... but the person or persons behind this idea.. well just really broke the game.

    I haven't spent a dime on this game in many months... and now... well this sale has left me wondering why I play at all.

    You have made 3-3 very difficult for the ordinary casual player to obtain (one of the last steps in obtaining end game gear).. but for 72 gold you can purchase your end game gear without having to do any work at all.

    Of course this post is going to be sandwiched in a sea of posts and no one of importance is even going to bother reading any of them (Anniversary pack thread anyone?) It's painfully clear this company does not care about a large portion of its player base... I'm sure they thought of the ramifications of this sale, and the profits outweighed losing "customers".

    This sale is geared towards the people willing to shell out little less then $100 for rank 8.


    W O W Anyone?
    Nevermind the rest of the population in the game.


    Good job.

    It's really now time to consider moving on. Seems like P2P games aren't as broken as f2p

    It only lasted a bit more than 2 years... pw that is. It will die too soon. I wonder if they can keep customers for their other games because news like this spreads quite fast.

    I`m seriously in doubt that the game will die as most people are predicting. When you get something you want, you are getting even more on the game as you already got what you wanted and you want to get even more or you just want to show what you've achieved to the rest.
    For example if I get Heaven Shatterer for my archer will I want to quit ? Of course no, I`ll play even more so I can enjoy it because I've struggled for it. Then I`ll fight to get better gear and roll people in TW and PvP.
    Personal opinion as a player.

    You cant really do a roll-back when people charged zen and got rep badges though. The money has already been invested so to speak. Are they gonna remove the gained rep and send all these people their money back? Some people used pre-paid cards to and might not even have a bank account.

    Just transferring the zen back to their PWI accounts is kinda unfair to since im sure they wouldn't have charged in the first place if it wasn't for this crazyness.

    Its a massive amount of zen thats been charged already, just for the purpose to get rank8 lol. Its really no way to sort this out without someone getting screwed over. If they just picked the items out of the cash shop now it would be even more unfair to those that didnt have enough time to charge 70 bucks or buy 70+ gold in AH.

    I do agree the hole thing is absolutely disgusting. What moron thought it would be a good idea to hand out Rank8 to every single player in the game? Giving heavy cash shoppers full access to rank9 - for less than you average pay check is even more crazy. I keep thinking about those people that farmed + cash shopped for rank8 before and how much money and time they spent. If i still played actively and cared about this game i would be pretty sad and upset.

    The game will not die to those who spent 72 bucks to get end game gear. Game is dead for the people who do little or no cash shopping or worked hard for their nirvana or rank gear and now it's basically worthless.

    Well I`m one of these people and I can say that the game is not dead for me. From now on I`ll be even more defiant to level up my chars and get them some gear and, oh God, I'd love to kick some of the R8/R9 users.

    You are a pwe employee even if unpaid. You're supposed to see the company and everything they do as 100% positive. Talking bad about your employer to its customers is a big no-no.

    Grim... lol if it took you 2 years playing to get that +10 heavenshaterer & your nirv gear & then all of a sudden anyone who joins today & spends 75$ can have best endgame gear others spent years farming... or even cashopped & payed up to 600m for that stuff before.... You'd be very angry as well... But you are not one of those players...


    Furthermore, since you mentioned wanting more...? What more is there to get??? For 75$ I can buy endgame... What more is there to aim for? What is there to do?

    For people who got nirvana gear they were not looking to sell it. In fact most have it bound. What would be helpful is to add a unbinding stone to the cash shop. That way they can trade up cause its not like everyone can cash shop and there will be plenty of players who would want those players old gear.

    You guys act like the whole server is r8 and if so, so what, all that happens if everyone went r8 is that the game evened itself out somewhat.

    Those at the top will still stay at the top and those at the bottom will still be at the bottom. All that changed was the distance between the bottom and the top. Do like what another mmo I used to play did, rebalance the game by making everything more. In other words increase the stats of all gears so they can be competitive with R8/R9 players and also increase mob hp/mp/damage so game isnt a roll over. Nerf PvP damage in line with the power increase and there you go. The only thing that remains screwed is the economy and that is fixed by making legendary gear etc easier to farm. Now make the game more PvP focussed and limit the amount of land any faction can hold to 10 at any one time.

    There are many ways to fix this scenario but a roll back isnt a good one. Many people here claim there quitting but roll back and I think many more will quit for real.

    He is doing a good volunteer mod. Im sure he is equally upset as us. Maybe less, but still. He is trying to be polite, and do his job at the same time. We are lucky he is risking his MOD status to let us vent.

    Although, I think Grim mistakes the severity of the situation.
