This game has a horrible unbalanced PvP system and Economy system.

My question is, Will the new expansion balance out the all mighty almost invincible Asassin in PvP?

Or will Perfect world Entertainment once again ignore us, and update whatever they feel like?

1. only if ya feel like buyin gold

2. have you read up on seekers or mystics at all? if anything has ever been designed to kill assassins, it's them.

3. yeah, i know, they're so horrible *watches the player base miraculously keep rising*

and now for a question of my own.

it's ferbuary, the month they've promised us an expansion, and guess what.... no official release date. so that's my question. when the hell is the exact fckn release date? or "when would the official release date be?" if you'd like a cleaner version of the question.

it better not be a lie, a more condenced server pop woudl be great, not that any server really has a low population, but in my mind, the more the marrier, until the server starts laggin ofcorse.

although I agree with you for the most part, a new PvP server would be a breath of fresh air.

Our site may work with the publishers, however, I have no intention on going easy on them during Q&As. Most of my interviews are known for asking the questions that other sites refuse to ask. For instance, I have a pending interview with Nexon about some of the issues in Vindictus. I haven't heard back from them since I've submitted to questions to them, and I'm not sure they'll ever do an interview with me again -- however, I strongly feel that answering a player's questions is more important than saving face. Smart companies tend to answer the hard questions I ask, because it often stops much of the player worry on their forums.

janus have point there: when i read Q&A interview i usually have this feeling, like i would be reading another ad..

but anyway, pw answering hard questions - good luck?

here on forums, we (as community) are either ignored or misleaded i.e. popular way of dealing with us is to make a sticky topic (about concern) then letting us whine there for few dozens of pages and unsticky it so it can be forgotten

after a year(+) community got tired asking rhetorical questions and just went bat**** crazy with trolling this place (which you may notice..)


seems that we are just too demanding. pw lost its original quality and went 'easy way' like many other f2p games.

To be honest, is what the game needs to get out of the boredoom of 5aps high instances...

I vouch for asking the question about the new server with the new expansion b:victory

All I can say is, it hasn't been deleted.

Rubberbanding is my only issue lately.

damn inform yourself before asking questions which were already answered,

Release date is 2.March! b:beatenup
http://pwi.perfectworld.com/news/?tag=pwi-news


and you ever tought about, the RACE WHICH IS CAPABLE TO KILL EVEN A SIN, it will OVERKILL the old classes for sure b:shocked and not solve the problems

Now to my questions:

1. Will they give us reward for lying that the release should actually come on February, and now it will be later?

2. Will they finnaly fix the rubberbanding along with the new expansion?

3. Will they ever remake the old races and they instances which looks a bit old and ugly now if you comparing them with the places where the new races starts?

4. Will there even more Races comming in Future?

5. Will they finnaly do something about the screwed up economy and change the Gold Cap back to 1mil at most? Couse the new Races will make the Economy even worse, no stability at all

6. Will they ever stop lying and telling they can`t do anything about the game which doesnt match with chinese culture BUT STILL SELL PACKS which are obviously FORBIDDEN THERE?

7. Will we ever get some good quests which will help us leveling, with great exp/sp/reputation rewards, so it will be worth of doing them, specially after lvl 80, so we dont depend on Hypers/Boutique Stuff and boring bh/fcc/... ?

8. Will they upgrade the skills of the old classes as well so they would be a match against the overpowered new races?

So... questions...

First of, I think quality issue questions are legit. The rubberbanding issue does hurt some of us, and I would like to know about their plans to isolate and fix this set of problems. And the Raging Tide expansion still has some regions where quality settings get artificially lowered and I imagine that that was because of some performance issues that they did not have time to fix before release. But a discussion of only quality and performance issues would get boring.

So another range of questions has to do with the plot of the expansion. The Raging Tide expansion quests had some incredible (if tragic) plot included in them. But almost no one in the forums noticed. And it can take quite a bit of time to read some of that quest text. And if you ever reflexively click too fast its lost to you forever (well.. or until you level up another character). And some of the presentation depends on how you play. So... have they done anything to make quests easier to read? And, has the same level of effort gone into the writing for the Genesis expansion? What kinds of qualities have they been focusing on, for this new expansion?

I can also imagine game mechanic questions, but I imagine we will be discovering those soon enough.

I'd like them to answer whether they are ever going to fix the clerics buff bug.

I was confused by that issue, myself. But I am not convinced it was not intentional -- I feel it's just presented poorly (there should be, I think, special effects when existing magic resistance prevents new magic resistance from being applied -- they do not need to be outrageous effects, just hints that something is happening).

1) Have the developers totally forgotten about the class called wizards? As I (a level 96 wizard) write I have been online 4 hours and unable to get invited to a single Forstcovered instance because the only class everyone wants as a damage dealer is the assassin class?

2) Are the developer yet willing to admit that they gave too much power to the assassin class and that the balance of the game is skewed completely in their favor both PvP and PvE wise?

3) Have the developers truly looked into the impact of 5.0 attacks per second using fist and claws and realise that classes like archers and barbarians are using these weapons now in an attempt to stay useful in the game?

4) Are those responsible for the cash shop willing to admit that they made a mistake by making gear and powerful gears at that so easily available in the cash shop to the point that the casual gamer is no longer able to be competitive in PWI?

5) With the introduction of Seekers and Mystics yet another two classes are now being introduced that will undermine the existance of the wizard class. Do the developers, publishers and any other person who can help make changes ever listen to player feedback? We play (many of us) everyday and understand the game and how it works to a high degree. When almost everyone in the game has the same complaints/qq at what point does that tell the developers that mabey, just mabey there is some credit to our complaints and that just mabey if they made some of the changes we suggested that we would be happier players?

6) Is PWI aware that many of us are now dissatisfied with its product for the reasons given above e.g. game balance (assasssins NEED to be nerfed), aps cap in need of lowering, cash shop way too influential on gameplay etc. etc?

7) Moving away from characters and balance, at what point do PWI developers intend to fix the rubberbanding issue. It is the single most annoying bug in the game and happens almost any and everywhere. In some instances it can be so bad you have to log out of the client to get it to stop.

8) From what I have read of guild bases it is a wonderful idea HOWEVER it is horribly expensive and ONLY seems to be of benefit/obtainable in full to/by factions who already have more power than everyone else. Does PWI realise it has a casual gamer market who help to make up the general population of PWI? Is PWI so intent on making money that they have forgotten the casual gamer completely?

9) In other games I have played before the GMs have been outspoken and have taken the time to interact with the playerbase especially via the forums. Those GMs were even bold enough to travel to the developers and tell them what the community in the US/international locales needed to help improve the game for them. I know it comes down to what the developers decide but certainly when it comes to making money a happy client = continuous cash flow. So I ask, do the GMs of PWI have any input where any of our concerns lie or are they content to hide behind the curtains of the suggestion forum and wink at us weekly with via the maintenance thread bearing no more than the standard "maintenance has begun" and maintenance is complete" lines?

10) The one questions I really want to ask all of those in positions like GM, developer, publisher, marketing and even you sir who will be conducting this interview: Do any of you people actually play the game (on a serious level) on the live servers?

Thank you for your time even if you do not use any of questions in your interview and good luck in your endeavor.
