After two very ****ty events, both completely abysmally time-constrained, no info at all as to when they were active, and the lack of snowmen, despite being promised that they would be around for the MONTH, which turned into "china doesn't have time to fix them" Are we going to see ANY compensation for the fact that the snowmen were not around?

On top of that it's absolutely pathetic it's going to take half a month to get items sent out to players for participating an a F2P event. Now throw another "super-sale" for rank9 which just continually separates REAL players from the cheaters who've hit 105 from the fc glitch, that they just never bothered to work with, and simply now we have MANY MANY 105s on the servers without consequence.

So what are WE the PLAYERS going to get out of this year?

I'm usually quiet, but even I can only be quiet for so long, and I'm tired of seeing things go downhill, and keep going even quicker.

    That is highly doubtful. I don't know why we need compensation anyway. We JUST had a whole month of x2 everything ... and those x2 DQ points were VERY rewarding. I think its time to stop complaining about what we're not getting (especially something as insignificant to the game as snowmen), and start appreciating what they HAVE given us.

    That x2 was more beneficial to me as a non-CS'r then anything PW has ever really done before. Being able to farm 2-3 sets of gear and be able to refine it to a decent level was fantastic.

    stop QQ'ng, thats just as bad as the QQ'ers that QQ over pk drops.....

    since when does having r9 or used the gltich(a small percentage of them at least) mean that they are skill-less or not a real player. that argument is long over so here's a coke, drink it and go watch some TV.

    2x events benefit free player more than cash players, they have the coin, you do the work.

    its free fashion, the same free fashion from last year and with about the same amount of wait. running queries on a database filled with a ba-jillion names x8 for their alts is time consuming and a technically big job. it takes a while they never said the fashion would be delivered 1/4......

    you spoil decent arguments with petty QQ.

    You really should look at what we're getting instead of what we didn't get, snowmen aren't a huge freakin deal, and its not like PWI has never broken a 'promise'. I agree with xyleena that all the 2x was more than enough compensation.

    The only thing I agree with out of that entire column of QQtext. It used to be you didn't get your **** handed to you by someone ONE LEVEL higher than you. Suddenly the gap between 100 and 101 feels more like a gap of 100-120 thanks to recasted Rank.

    Other than that, I feel like I'm visiting a fountain that's gushing out **** instead of water.

    Psy, I think you be expecting a bit too much from pwe and wanmei.

    You should now by now that if you really want to put your hope into something, it should be the release of a certain something, not compensation for 3 years of game corruption. b:laugh

    IMHO if they actually get the fashion handed out by the 18th without needing people to send in tickets then they did better than they normally seem to do.

    Yeah the 2x was nice, but for those of us who remember 2008, it still doesn't stack up. The crucial difference being, the devs we had in 2008 could actually modify the game code worth a damn and bring us a real Christmas event. All our current devs seem capable of is inventing shoddy new content and maybe removing the old content if they should manage to horribly break it due to their own incompetence. >_>

    The short version is, PWE gave us 2x, etc. because they knew damn well the devs didn't have jack for us this year, and they didn't want people to complain about it.

    Of the highest degree.

    Yes, I am entitled to compensation for a lack of snowmen because it has affected my gameplay considerably.

    That's also assuming that the ticketing system actually works for half the population. Currently, there are many that can't access the support system because of the fail web developers and the most recent "upgrade".

    The only reason I'm not on my private server more is because of my friends and faction here. The way PWE is running the show, that will no longer be the case in the foreseeable future. I would gladly pay the fees to publicly host my private server to my friends rather than continuing to support the way PWE is driving this game.

    Anyone of you ever tried China PW? It's dead i mean they have few literally empty servers ( more empty than PW-MY) only the hardcore players are still there . Their main income is from PWE West. So "china doesn't have time to fix them" is just a lie.

    Their servers are far from empty.
    If they were suffering from decline in population, they wouldn't have added 4 new servers, 2 of which were opened in response to all the people playing when the expansion opened.

    Granted an expansion usually brings about more people but come on it's not that bad...

    Let's also not forget they do have massive bot armies running around.

    I agree with OP, even though she implies that the rank sale should concern PWE. They WANT players that pay a lot to be more powerful. That encourages people to pay them, and that's what keeps the game alive. I don't like it any more than the rest of us, but that's how F2P games work :(

    Oh please they tried to implement the snowmen but they couldn't, they did give away free fashion, free all class pets, double the dq point rewards, host two all new events, and extend 2x for a month. To be honest one of their events earlier this year had mobs that dropped tons of chi stones during the last 2x. Though I was out of town during the last one, they did provide free chi stones. I was just as disappointed as the next person there wouldn't be snowmen this year, wanted to fill all of my genie needs not just some of them from a one off event. But the fact of that matter remains that we aren't entitled to them giving us the exact same free stuff every year. This year was different. Hopefully next year will be better if there is a next year. It's not like they didn't try to give them to us.
