Stay tuned for more details
Just thought to my self whilst reading a thread about how this game used to be a while back and it got me thinking, I woulden't mind playing a new server without hyper stones and putting FC back to the way it was, if we have to have hypers in, how about cap'ing it at x5 max instead of x12?, BH...i have mixed feelings about it, perhaps 1 boss a day instead of 3 if anything?
No APS gear at the ease that it is now and possibly even Cap it at 3, no packs and either put hp/mp food into NPCs (will help the annoying inflation of the economy if people can buy pots from NPCs and not players).
Refining...well If I could have my way, I'd cap refines at +10, as +12 is just...un-needed, regardless of how much money is spent on it, tbh it's like saying if a weapon cost $100 thousand to get, then you should be aloud to 1 shot people, yea thats true, my point is, is that actually needed in a game? and should a pixel weapon cost that much?
Also, is nirvana gear needed? sure it's "more" end game gear, though tbh I always thought TT99 was enough whilst keeping the balance amongst classes, anyway these are just simply ideas to possibly even "help" the game for more fair PvP and to hopefully avoid the 1-3 shot contest that the game has now turned into, in short, we could have these new servers as a non disguised private server and have it similar to what it once was.

You realize its going to be hosted by PWE right? That means, even if it starts on an earlier version, it will catch up on our current version sooner or later. Really soon probably. All for the sake of the money-making.
Sorry to kill the dream T_TMadness?

I coudn't agree more with those statements. A "fresh" server with all not as "easy" to obtain does sound like a good idea.. And I know it can be done, was on another MMO where they did the same (open a "old-school" server)
Yes it helps company finance themselves but no pixel wep is worth 1000$ + to me. TT99 is good enough to be able to face almost everything in game. Take a casual player that just likes to kill for thrill, farms a bit here in there, very few instances and not geared enough to get invited to a Nirvana. Think he/she will ever get a chance to get a 300 mils + tome ? Doubt it.
Some players also passed weeks if not months and months farming to get 1 piece of Nirvana gear, now I see them pop up like crazy in packs....
Easy button much for heavy cash shoppers to help widen the gap to make the non (or lesser) cash shoppers feel more apart ? b:surrenderProud supporter of the new expansion. Sure it has it's share of bugs, like any games. But for a pure farmer/grinder, that's a whole lot of new mobs to go beat up b:chuckle0 -

same graphics, you had to grind for your levels, more active pvp since everyone was out of sz grinding, gold at 100k each. fun times, I am playing minecraft now with friends that also quit this game, at least its interesting.
I gave up hoping pwi actually cared about the playerbase. And the continued lies, 1 being they were working to lower gold. (This was back when gold was 600-700k each) its' doubled now. They only care about the few that spend heaps of money on this dying game.0 -

like the one about the game will not cater to cs-ers but will only sell items of convenience, which in no way will give cs-ers an advantage in gameplay
I'm total for a new server if its like when PW first started, that was the golden age. Seeing as they probably wont do that. I'll only come back to a new server if the packs go bye bye and FCC changes back.
I might stay for the beginning of the server though if nothing changes, no one able to achieve 5aps yet because they'll need groups of people for FB's/TT/NV/FC to get mats and be the right lvl b:laugh
EDIT: well they could open packs for stuff, but they still need to lvl and no one will be doing FC0 -

This post made me laugh so hard...
So you're telling to the PWE company to remove their biggest source of income?? (aps, packs, high refines, ranks) Where's the sense on that? lol...
Put the game from 2008 and then 1 week later you can complain in forums again:
"OMG QQ can't level fast enough, this is boring"
"OMG QQ there's no new content/endgame gear, I'm bored"
"OMG QQ all TWs last the same time cause everyone has got the same cheapass gear and nobody has any problems to acquire every powerful gear, so boring"
Really, stop living in a pink world, this is not dreamy land... Get smart, find your way and adapt to changes0 -

I don't reply much to forum topics but.
The game was great in 2008, as people were nice ingame and in forums, now forums are very different, full of people I don't understand.
I liked the game then as it was DIFFERENT. Meaning I liked it based on Chinese mythology and history, why I liked it
But not it's like every other one with magical fairies and weird races that wern't based on anything Chinese or Asian.[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]0 -
If this ever does happen, ppl would have to get use to lvling at a slow and steady pace, which I'm sure thats ok for a large majority wanting this.
Remember, just like in the old days, expect months upon months to making the high lvls, such as lvl 89+.
However, I think it makes it that much more appealing. b:victory[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]

I don't even know what I can say to your idiotic post, apart from, you would be a complete moron to actually go onto a server knowing it's a "low rate" and then "QQ" on the forums about it, I played pw-my and MS and of course HT as soon as it came out so I already know what to expect in terms of players and slow game play, go fail troll elsewhere.
Oh also I LOL at the "new content and end game gear", content...seriously what new content is there that's actually made a difference to the game? and new end game gear? it's all un-needed, TT99 is fine, the rest was just pointless add-ons to make the game more unbalanced then it already is, also if you call R8 and R9 new gear, then have fun chucking money at PWE, the game was running perfect before all this **** came along.
Also the TW bit, I loved it when we have long *** TW's where it wasn't just a simple tab+f1 dead in 1-3 hit's, it actually made it...ya know...more enjoyable? if you did actually join at 2009, you woulden't know that know would ya, coming into the season of packs.[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]

Well, calling my post idiotic won't make yours be more cool, cause other than you, I'm realistic.
Like I said before, you're asking to remove packs, even potions to merchant blabla, mainly take away all the things that give pwi their income... Do you really think that has any sense? That's more idiotic than my post.
Forums would be full of QQ about people leveling slow... many have a life and can't spend days over days playing a hardcore grinding boring mmo and would get bored before they can do something fun other than endless leveling on mobs and quests of few k of exp lol
For god shake, people even complain that some endgame instances are too long (aps 15 min nirvanna or gtfo) or that you have to do nirvanna 100 times for a simple cast... When an instance is something supposed to be fun done with teamwork, imagine a server with those rates that you're asking, it would be a desert.
I played many years ago without BHs, hypers or anything like that... my result was quitting at lvl 50 out of boredom, endless questing and only hearing that after lvl 70+ was a hell to grind. Many people don't leave for mmos, they just enjoy some free time.
Look around the forums and you'll see that QQ I talked about in my other post, is full of it "no content QQ" "no new instances QQ" "no new gear QQ". You can call them morons for QQing, but if you open a server with those rates be sure you'll have it (i.e. "only one server for europeans and it has to be for slow old nostalgic folks that enjoy passing days grinding, QQ go make it in other american server").
And just to point out two things, yesterday I had a full 3 hour TW and was really fun beating a guild full of unskilled cashoppers. Oh, I also LOL like you I'm R9 without putting one single real coin in the game. Keep QQing stuck in the past b:bye0 -
I agree with the concept of an old-school server, but all indications are that the EU servers will be on the same patch as the current servers. This means that it's just going to be a matter of time before people get those servers to the point where our current ones are now.0

Would be nice to have servers post-****. However, they would be Euro servers and w/ clients that aren't in English. Even if the servers could be accessed and was in English, I don't think at this point, I'd start over. Also, the server would be dead for a while. More-so because there are less European players playing PWI than American players.0
