FC Glitch Update

I'M BACK!!!!

Regarding the goon glitcher problem I had a serious issue with those demanding that PWE somehow put this genie back into the bottle. Or use some mystical orwellian overlord power to somehow close Pandora's box and undo all that has been the result of the glitch. I knew that even making such an attempt at this late date would in itself cause a catastrophic game changing scenerio that would have been worse than all the effects of the glitch itself. I support the decision PWE made to basically do nothing to the goon glitchers or the caster glitchers. Too much time has passed and the in-game entropy has already manifested long ago.

While I understand how some are upset by the result of the glitch and PWE's reponse to it what 's done is done. Time to adapt to it and move on.

The battle in my opinion all along was not to change what's happened in the past but should have been how to prevent, thwart, locate, discipline glitch abusers in the future in a timely manner. Changes in the way PWE communicates with the games' playerbase is essential for that among other things. If anything good can come from all this it's that. I wish ChaoticShelly and the others luck with their suggestions.

Until the next great firestorms of QQ threads litter the forums with the white-hot burning emotions of anger and grief with the likes that overwhem tens of thousands of professional psycho therapists....ta ta.

Frankie basically stated such in a thread he closed similar to the one Tremble had with the goon glitch update. Also nice to see you back.

"Back" is an appropriate term... work can be a total drag sometimes.b:surrender

You were gone? b:puzzled

I haven't been in-game or on the forums for a few weeks lately. Working on a house I bought. May be gone most of the summer for gold is above $1600 and ounce and it might be fun digging it out of the ground in a several month long camping and fishing trip.

I know pain right now. Hands and feet with blisters from digging up my yard by hand to plant a garden and new grass. Also made 4 trips to the dump hauling out 2 years worth of dead leaves from the trees. Next month I need to dig a new water well by hand because the previous owner screwed up the well he dug. I refuse to pay the city $300 a month to water my lawn with a river a block away and groundwater 5 feet below the surface.

>ehem<.....this is my main toon. All my alts are less then lvl 55. Apparently you completely failed to grasp the point of my previous post. If you ever wondered why I had such enormous animosity towards the other goon glitcher QQ threads it's because I made this point as well as others long ago, and I mean last year yet there were dozens and dozens of goon glitcher QQ threads since by the same small group of folks basically flaming not only flaming others like me with other points of view but flaming the staff. Their demands for closing Pandora's Box as I put it in my last post and erasing the effects of the glitch itself was asking to create a entirely new compounded set of problems for the game's community and was not going to be feasable.

You spoke of growing up in a country with the horrors of communism. There is absolutely no way you can undo what has been done in the past. All that could have been done was to stop it, create a new government and economic system that improves the lives of the people with a free and fair open society among other things and let the horrors of the past become a bad ever distancing memory that serves no other greater purpose than to educate future generations reasons to avoid ever returning to that form of government. You see what I'm saying here? The fight should be about preventing future goon glitch fiascos with regards to how PWE handles them with the glitch and glitchers because they really dropped the ball last time and too much time passed and allowed widespread abuse to the point that any attempt to undo the effects would be just as or even more devastating to the game than the glitch itself.

But what do you care now? You're in another MMO. Good luck...LOL!

7 days ban for lvl 105? sign me up right away!!

Bit off-topic sorry: Even more reason to try end set up a better communication between them and the players (and maybe arrange some beta testers as well)... We play the game so we can report bugs in the game and make suggestions about what could be improved and such...

Honestly until the GMs play the game and get a real understanding, the communication will fall short. I can give examples or bugs that have been reported and not fixed. "Magic resist Buff" We the players have been reporting bugs since day 1. The things that actually get fixed opposed to the ones that stay baffle me.

I highly doubt we will be seeing any kind of "beta testers" etc. I think the most players can hope for is the GM's take an active interest in forums, joking around or whatever. As for any real game play make-overs...

That's one of the issues almost every game faces after a few years. The people in charge of enforcing the rules or adding content don't even play the game anymore. They get burnt out like the rest of us.

They should at least replace the GMs when it gets to that point. What good are they if they aren't even logging in to do their jobs? The devs are a little harder to replace for a few reasons, but the quality of the game and everything else goes downhill fast when they stop caring about their product.

It seems like the forum moderators (volunteers) take their jobs more seriously than anybody. That's sad.

(I see a GM goofing around in chat as I type this. That's about all I see them do besides spawn bosses outside Arch.)

WTH!!!!!!!

Clearly you all don't play enough to notice GM's online. Or you haven't figured out when the times they might be on. Regardless WHO THE BLOODY HELL DO YOU THINK PLAYED THIS GAME FIRST???? Who do you think BETA tests the things that come down from the China game? REALLLLLY????? I just simply can't abide by the sheer nonsense of these posts. There are GM's in game, you just haven't been privy to know when they are on. BTW I didn't know they had to tell you when they are working? And again its the dev's who make changes not the flipping GM's FFS. Just WOW! Really WOW!

Chinese players. As for the original staff who created Perfect World (the game), they left for greener pastures.

Some of us played this game even before PWI existed. Most of the original players of this version were playing on another engrish version run by a an asian company whose name included a geometric form.

I played this game even before Xarfox and Orinj were hired by PWI... At that time they were working for another company on a game involving having fun while flying, iirc.




Seeing the numerous bugs that appeared over time, I would dare to say : no one. They probably test the patch to see if the server still run after applying it, and that's it.

Oooo! Somebody has sand in their vajayjay. Maybe you should try reading my post before activating fangirl mode.

Playing the game first doesn't mean anything. I have done alpha and beta testing for several games. I have also played the hell out of those games after they were released and either reached the point where there was nothing left to do or I got bored. I am human. You're trying to say that the people that run this game can't do the same? LOL! I've seen it happen before with other games that weren't mediocre.

You're obviously one of those fangirls that thinks this company is perfect. It will be hilarious when you wake up from your fantasy and see how everything really is.

There are hardly any GMs that are active on HT. That is a fact. Seriously, all they do is spam random red text every now and then or spawn bosses outside Arch. They are hardly ever around when there is a problem or somebody needs help.

GM1: Is the patch ready to test?
GM2: yep.

*Loads patch in test server*

GM1: Ok, looks like we can still fly/walk/buy packs and other boutique stuff, think it's ready to go public?

GM2: Is everyone's hair supposed to be pink? And why do the sins have +999 att lv?
GM1: Meh, we'll fix it later, just put it out it's almost quitting time[.
GM2: Ok, ok, what do you want for dinner?
GM1: Chinese.

If it wasn't for that I'd have believed it was a real log. GMs don't load the game, they just look at the little "Server status" window and see "running".

In raging tides and archosaur servers is really simple!

Ban all lvls 104 and 105 yeah u can't perma ban them cause they are
the bigger Cash shoppers and perma ban them means less money for PWE
that's why they will never do that....so yeah just a 7 days ban.

why not bring the glitch thing back so everyone can reach lvl 105 and then
just get banned for 7 days ???.

Just ridiculous PWE.
