Pssst... hey, PWE. It's the Year of the Dragon now.

Okay, I'm starting to wonder if the devs are just asleep at the wheel... because really? Tiger packs again? The Year of the Tiger was two years ago, now. Chinese New Year was the other day, as a matter of fact. It's now the Year of the Dragon. When are we gonna see "Year of the Dragon Packs?" Complete with some overly-elaborate-and-probably-ugly dragon-themed mount? XD

I mean, I don't even want them, and I'm sure as hell never gonna buy them. But it's the kind of thing we expect from you, by now. What's the point of watching a trainwreck if you guys can't keep it entertaining? Change it up once in awhile.

On a side note, I love how you conveniently forgot to release "Year of the Rabbit" packs last year. The poor little bunnies aren't as marketable as tigers, eh? Although, I know at least one person who's still waiting for a giant Huggy Hare mount. So yeah... get on that, devs. :P

    The only thing we saw from the year of the Rabbit was the bunny shops that they waited until Easter to release. A poor comparison to the content that was released for PW-CN.

    Don't get your hopes up that we will see anything for year of the Dragon.

    Hadn't thought about the giant bunny AC pets, but those just look creepy and/or disturbing, more than anything else.

    @Sylen, I guess you missed the [/sarcasm] tag. I can't really get my hopes up about something I'd never really care about to begin with. :P But what was released for CN exactly?

    All kidding aside, I just thought it was funny how PWE marketed the Year of the Tiger packs, and how that conveniently didn't happen in the Year of the Rabbit. And so now I find myself wondering how they'll market the Year of the Dragon. It'll probably be depressing no matter what, but in all honesty I can't decide if I want it to be predictable or not. If we just got another pack like all the others, well... it'd be boring, but it wouldn't decimate the game balance any further. Conversely, any attempt PWE actually makes to "shake up the system" is gonna be something along the lines of selling more gear in the CS (Nirv or Warsoul or whatnot). So I can't decide which would be more depressing. :P

    I heard a rumor that the staff working for pwi are all very religious and that they believe the end of the world wil be in 2012 and now they dont care about working on the game since the world will end soon anyway.

    I wonder what will happen when 2013 comes and they realise they just wasted a full year

    I just don't get how people still bother to play this game, never mind buy their over priced useless packs on a dying game with no real content updates, ever.

    I need proof of this, NOW. D:

    I don't have any private servers installed on this laptop at the moment, so I couldn't show you screenshots of my barb on it on 2 different servers. Maybe someone knows what I'm on about and can post pics.

    Think of the big fat all class pet, add pink/purple details, a little saddle, a nice purple ball necklace, a lil tail like a bunny should have, slimmer, and it hops when you move around.
