    The gods' swords shine in the darkness, like stars in the night
    Mountains collapse into rubble and fiends shall fall

    i don't know how this works but i thought if i download that huge!!! manual patch i didn't have to wait years on the patcher updater? so even after i downloaded that super huge manual patch thing i have to wait for the patcher updater to download the patch and install it?

    this will take all day i guess i'm gonna miss out on dailies today and everything else i had to do

    Oh well, probably the same problem as Kitty had when trying to install PWI. No matter how Kitty downloaded the installation files, they always became corrupted. Kitty had to copy the client from her friend's laptop to get a working client(now Kitty has 5 copies of client around her hard drives to make sure there's at least one working copy). Just wishing it's not like that again...

    Hey everyone,

    Tonight is the special night! The download will be extra chunky today, as we are updating the game with the New Horizons expansion. We expect the process to take double the usual maintenance length, our estimate is:

    11pm PST - 5am PST

    As always, we want the maintenance to go smoothly so that we can release the content to you as soon as possible.

    As we near release, this thread will be updated with the patch notes as well as the events you can expect to have fun with!

    This week's maintenance question:

    What type of fashion weapons would you like to see?

    I would like to see the fash weapons perm to buy and dyeable. A walking stick or old fashion revolver and other things. Maybe make the fash weapons do certain moves only characteristic to that weapon would be cool.

    And yet we have the Chrono Bike, an obvious motorcycle.
    ...A day may come when the courage of men fails, when we forsake our friends and break all bonds of fellowship, but it is not this day. An hour of woes and shattered shields, when the heavens come crashing down! But it is not this day! This day we fight! By all that you hold dear in this world, I bid you stand, warriors of Pellucidar!

    I heard there's a story behind that one, something went wrong with the past pwi maps and the chronobike came out of one of the portals or something.

    I would like to see a cleric weapon look like a syringe and would like to see these items as permanent and tradable, etc. Make the syringe fill with blood as you kill the mobs would be cool as well.
    Thank you.

    This is just my curiosity while I wait for my client to update, but were there new flyers added? I see there is a new mount and the augment device is back, but it looks like there aren't any new flyers from what was already there. Just curious if there were any released and I'm just completely blind and missing them since there tends to be some with new mounts.
