Howdy, Stranger!

It looks like you're new here. If you want to get involved, click one of these buttons!

A few things..

Ok, firstly, I'm trying Perfect World out on the Chinese Beta (I think its chinese..heh).

Couple of things I've noticed..

- Is the combat REALLY that unresponsive or is it just a latencey issue? Coz' it takes a damn few milliseconds too long to cast skills IMO. I don't know, it just seems so choppy or theres too much delay between skills.

- Targeting Mobs, Players and NPCS is really buggy and can get extremely annoying. Theres no tab targeting either which is a minor annoyance.

- The sounds (atleast from what ive heard) are of low standard and may as well be non existant. Infact one of the first skills sound is really cheap and nasty. This to me a big issue.

- Graphics are fine.

- Character customization is great. Probably the biggest attraction for this game.

- Is there no "attack" key (e.g. space bar..), or auto-attack option? Coz I find myself having to double click mobs time and time again because my toon stopped attacking after a skill.

- Quests? same old same old....

At first glance this game is yet another L2 with a few added features. Unfortunatley for me, those added features dont cut it. Not in this day and age.

Maybe I should wait for the english version and try again, or atleast when the game is more polished.

    There are times when you will get some heavy lag. The Chinese version was not made with NA/EU players in mind. that's why you should look at the two servers and see which has the lowest latency.

    Since when is clicking on a mob or other player hard?

    Everyone has their own opinion. Personally, I find the music and sounds in general to be just fine.

    See that sword icon on the toolbar from the beginning? That's the normal attack. It's set to F1, unless you removed it. Also, using any toolbar attacks automatically attack the target. Or you can click the mob twice.
    - Quests? same old same old....

    This comment really makes me wonder if you even play, as I don't see anything that reminds me of L2. I would say the closest game would be WoW.

    Probably a good idea for you. As for polished, I'd say this game is very polished for an asian game, and as a game in general. But, like I said, everyone has their own opinion. Especially for a game in beta.

    Yep, and keep in mind that the game on the MY servers is still in closed beta, so it's not even open beta yet... The MY severs are also 3 game updates behind the JP severs (MY is at update 10 vs JP 13).
