    Yeah. The nice thing so far with all that though is, testing went well from everything ive read and the patch over to chinese servers from beta went very well *and that isnt a common thing for this game*. We are in luck for once with a smooth patch transition.

    Just got to hope pwi doesnt **** it up and get greedy with personal changes like fc room *china allows it* bs. And i dont care if its there or not, but its not a pw china thing...

    China OWNS our version, along with Malaysia and Japan. They actually have the say in what our version has. The Devs? They're also mainly Chinese. China does most things xD. The good news, however is the original devs, Archosaur Studios, are back with Wanmei. So we should see A LOT of older bugs fixed.

    Very valid question.

    Sparkie didn't say there was no patch. He said there were no patch NOTES, because it was just a tweak. It's not the same thing.


    IDK about problems, I downloaded the new patch in 30 secs or so with no issues. Its just the servers that are still down.

    Slayer_of_Souls: you guys are such suck ups. none of you have attacked twid.
    Twiddzly(fac leader): no, sere killed me already.
    Slayer_of_Souls: he's out there waiting for us, isn't he. i'm gonna die.
    Sereneai: b:sin why don't you come find out.
    Kinglkaruga: you go first dule.

    Everything you said is already known. Hence the reason why i said PWI and not china for the changes we have. They can chose to make personal changes to a degree, like when x2/3 hits. But it would be nice to see a more natural conversion from original game to here with less difference then what is already here now.

    I understand some changes and name usage needs to be adjusted as well as descriptions but the gear difference, is just annoying tbh. Lets keep it more natural, and as always no shave November b:shocked

    The servers should be open now. Note that we are currently still having issues with our French and German patch servers, so unfortunately at this time only players using the English version will be able to log into the game.

    The COA announcement bug was not really a bug, but actually the COA instance slowly developing sentience. When they shut the server down, it feared for it's life and began building itself a body with any hardware nearby. The maintenance people are currently fighting Throm the Mighty, built completely from wires and old discarded zip drives, with broomsticks and mops.

    THe biggest thing that started the gear difference was the fact our rank 9 was put into the boutique. So, when 3rd cast came out there had to be something that was a lot quicker to farm that was similar. So, we got NV3. You have to admit, NV3 is super pretty though. At least the weapons x.x

    Considering China has to approve what sparkie gives out in codes; I would not be surprised if China approves 3x/2x exp, etc.

    Wait, I'm not done... when maintenance people turned the server back on, they didn't notice a small crack in one of their monitors. They were subsequently sucked into a paradoxical vortex, much like the bahama triangle, escaping from the Theatre of Blood, in which they could not see anyone else, apply any actions, or even escape. Luckily at that same moment a pink Olyphant (a pink version of the actor, Tim) arrived on location, pitched a fit that his hair was not done correctly, threw a jar of M & M's at the computers, thus releasing our bewildered workers. Enjoy your game today, it was paid for in blood.

    Now we can all laugh at the misfortune of the French and German's.. Wahahahaha.. it is a victimless crime, like making fun of the Amish on MySpace! (Cuz they speak french.. and german, and I'm speaking english...and Amish people don't use technology.. and MySpace... get it? :)

    I have feelings of tired.
