    We listen to the suggestion box? Really? I don't recall a GM posting there in over a year. SO if you are listening you could really do a better job of showing it.

    I laughed my **** off.

    For a moment there I htought it was april the 1st, then I remembered it's PWI, not a joke. b:chuckle
    I've quit excluding TW for my faction. But I still hang around to help out those who still enjoy the game under PWEs horrific handling and to have fun in the forums. b:cute
    #Shame about PWEs absolutely craptastic handling of the goons glitching. Remember kids, there's no punishment for breaking the rules here!#
    If you make a valid complaint, your thread will disapear. Don't post it here, post it on other sites where PW can't hide it.

    Well, before it does start, I'll just say that I did like the background story behind the Four Noble De-...Wraith Emperors. I was always curious about why they were serving Jian'rin.

    The link contains a link to a competing MMORPG.

    Doesn't that count as advertising?

    Bad GM!

    They should delete that sub-forum, its the second Lower Depth section at this point.

    Not even going to bother flaming. Just have to say that it's the biggest heap of rubbish and lies I've ever read. That is all.

    Also, why do I get the impression frankie purposely stickied this for us all to see? Perhaps hoping for a flame storm and something to send to the devs to show how the community really feels. Idk, seems a little too deliberate, knowing how obvious it is we'd react badly.

    Tony Liu: From a PvE standpoint, the most popular aspect among players is our "Bounty Hunter" quest line. This daily quest finds players grouping up to take down bosses whose difficulties correspond to the players’ levels. The rewards for completing these challenges are hefty amounts of EXP and, for higher level players, powerful items as well.

    Ah yes, the all powerful mysterious chips and socket stones.


    As for something we wish we could do more of, it would be great if we could have more non-faction related PvP systems.

    No. What you need is a more balanced PvP system. Look at GW/*** PvP and learn.


    MMORPG: Can you tell us about one of the biggest lessons you have learned?

    Tony Liu: It always pays off to listen to the community. PWI players have been specifically asking for more end-game content, so that’s what we delivered with the Imperial Fury update.

    That’s also why our community team is always keeping an eye on our forum, keeping track of everything from suggestions and requests to bug reports, and working closely with players to run exciting in-game events.

    Listen to the community? How about Goon Glitch abusers?

    Tony Liu: Lunar Glade and Warsong City are two of the most beloved high level dungeons in the game,

    No. FF and Nirvana are.


    Who is this Tony Liu guy? Apparently he have absolutely no idea what is really going on in the game and the forums.
    Frankieraye said : "we can promise that we will work to improve all facets of community, engineering, and customer service to ensure that something like this doesn't happen again."


    (We are still waiting to see any improvements or changes beign implemented. More empty promises from PWI?)

    Have to agree... that interview was absolutely hilarious in the way it highlighted just how clueless the devs really are about the true state of the game. b:laugh

    Obviously it was a PR moment for PWE but they made the mistake of allowing comments at the end of the interview. Posters there have already started to rip the whole thing to shreds.

    Frankie please tell me they were talking about the chinese version and not the PWI version xD


    Cause if that guy is from PWE, you guys must of sent a new guy who you just hired for this purpose who has no knowledge of the game besides what was written down on que cards for them to read.




    If it's the chinese version: ROFL.

    If it's our version: *dies of laughter*
    Nothing worthwhile to mention here, enjoy the animated signature~

    IF this was 2008, then there would be SOME truth to that.

    This, however, is 2012, and guess what?

    Obvious part is obvious. >_>

    That and this one are my favorites

    "Tony Liu: Lunar Glade and Warsong City are two of the most beloved high level dungeons in the game"

    They don't get out much do they.

    i disagree, FF isnt a high level dungeon, anything under 100 is not high level.
    and nobody actually likes nirvana, they just like the money they get out of it, there is nothing fun about single target APSing over and over and over ad nauseum.

    warsong and to a lesser extent lunar are a lot more fun.
