The new expansion recently added to pwi : Descent, has brought discomfort and discontent among pwi players.

A lot of bullies (mainly high Lvs), have recently appeared killing ppl indiscriminately, expecially low Lvs in several areas, even if they aren't in pvp mode.

What happened to the feauture which allow ppl to enter pvp mode to play among themselves?. Is it work still or it is just a simple ornament in the game?

PWI; once a safety game to play and relax, has become a nightmare now for those whishing to do so and enjoy the game while leveling up. I wonder if the developers knew about this type of problem before allowing a free pvp condition in the game.

PWI (the company) has been well-known, to separete pwe from pvp not only on this game but also on another titles as well but, it looks like it has failed to keep this running.

If i am wrong about this, i gladly accept any update to the subject of this thread, if not, expect a lot of ppl leaving pwi, simply cause they can no longer play it on the same way it used to be played.

And to those of u who classify me as whinnig baby for this, allow me to say that before a player can become a bully and abuse others on the way i have seen on pwi so far, it is neccesary to Lv up first. Just remember thay u were a low Lv and whished to play the game without been disturbed when u first started

    That sounds interesting, I know SP got reverted by mistake, but are blue names being killed out in the world too???

    Could you clarify where this is happening it could help the GMs fix it faster

    Known Issues
    Players level 1-29 can, once again, be PKed in Secret Passage. This is fixed internally, but will require a content patch in order to fix on Live. Please be patient. orz

    Nice dramatic post though...
    I post in forums. This one and others. That's why I post.

    maybe you should try fixing the problem instead of re-installing over and over

    It's probably related to the "White name" PvP protections being broken, as well.

    this is a simple download for Direct 9.0
    do a google search for it, i used softonic download i believe

    but be careful not to download their FREE other garbage programs.

    basicly, be aware of what your doing. It really is pretty simple. Especially if i can figure it out


    i kinda resent PWI doing that without ttelling us about it.

    and if it turns out to be permanent on the PK think in SP... i will probably leave pwi.
    this is the second time lowlifes have taken advantage of a glitch just to enhance their kill ratio.

    I have already informed my Leader of this possible choice. As it effects my duties in the faction.

    I started a toon on Star trek to look at game, i stop that also. along with champions i just downloaded last night, barely had time to look at character creation.

    is this an idol threat, NO. i have walked away from games b4 now. Even though i enjoy pwi i am able to walk away.

    In my view, cheaters are liars.
    and Lieing is theft. It is theft of trust.

    b:sweat This isn't the first time an update has broken Secret Passage on pve servers. It's ALREADY BEEN FIXED and the changes will go live next patch, if you didn't read patch notes.

    That's because you're on Lost City. PvP servers don't suffer from it as bad as with PvE, since there's open map PK on your server. Here other people in pk mode have to look for more people in pk mode, and they take the opportunity to jump on people in SP who are going there for Culti and things and NOT looking for pvp.

    It is very natural seeing some comments like this one; from ppl who no loger care about the game either cause they are high lvs or log in the game casually cause they are already bored with it

    The true meaning of forums is to let the gaming community and GM's (if they ever read threads) how the game is doing, mainly when an expansion enters in effect.

    This the old saying is very true: SOME PPL TALK TO SAY SOMETHING AND SOME OTHERS SAY SOMETHING JUST TO TALK.

    What's so unsettling about getting killed with no exp or drop penalty anyway? Unless it's a constant harassment, it is at best just an annoyance.

    I think most of this outrage stems from a vast portion of the PvE server population's intense and irrational fear of being killed in game.

    Of course they will always deny this, fiercely, and then threaten me while they are at it.

    Anyway, it's already set to be fixed. We don't need a repeat of the drama seen on these forums just a few short months ago.

    I had several low levels in my faction pm me about getting gang ra** in sp (RT's) even after telling people to let them through which was really no different than last time they opened it up. The official note was that it was only 1-29 levels it was allowed for pk, but I went there myself and could pk in the instance out of the safe zone(did I misread that). But odly, I could target people well within the safe zone and attack them(knife throw, I asked them to test) while I was in the pk zone. Before you could only target and attack outside of the safe zone.

    Why do you insist that PVE people have an "intense and irrational fear" of being killed by other players? Some people simply don't want to deal with the annoyance it can cause, it has nothing to do with fear.

    If I want to PVP, I'll go white named. If I'm questing, I don't want to deal with PVP (unless I choose to go white named while questing or play one of my characters on LC).
