Hmmm I like the look of that bow but I have never seen one before..

Don't recognise it either, nor can find the skin on tel.eohjay.net

Photoshop?
Where did you get this SS? one of the faction trailers?

No its not a photo shop, but yeah sorry should of said before, don't think i'm allowed too name, name's but it was one of the member's from Last Pride so i think maybe it's a prize?

Its for the Taiwan Pre-Order, all links I had to them however dont seem to work anymore and direct you to the Taiwan GW main page.

Raziel is correct. I seen the Taiwan preorder shield in CA today and had to beat up the Mesmer that had it so I could take a screenshot of it.

Either way thanks for the info

It reminds me of that bow for the Weapon design contest that won.

Sol_Vie · Feb 23, 2006, 06:28 AM // 06:28

I just tried to search for a picture of it for like... 40 minutes (In asia sites)? I can't find any picture for any of the preorder.

I wish the old link were still up =(

What I don't get is... why is all the asian GW pay-to-play? If it were like the western GW, they would be far more sucessful. Then again, it would kill their lineage 2 costumers if Gw is monthly-free.

It's pay-to-play in Asia?

Vilaptca · Feb 23, 2006, 05:13 PM // 17:13

Actually I think they have a choice, and its not pay-to-play like what you would think.

Most of these people are playing in internet cafes, so the people that are "paying to play" are the ones who buy timecards to use at the cafes. Its nothing like our monthly fees. But I do believe they also have the choice to just straight up buy the game as we do, this would be for those with home systems I guess. Or at least this is the way I interpreted it each time a GW employee came on the forum to make us understand that Asia's pay-to-play isn't like what we have over in the US for other MMOs.

The design a weapon bow owns, the preorder bow is ugly imo. I hope they impliment that bow in Factions ^_^. It'll quickly become the new "storm bow" I'm sure.

Vermilion Okeanos · Feb 23, 2006, 09:29 PM // 21:29

Even their full package come with a "month free" kind of thing, while they offer 10 hours trial.

They are FULL pay-to-play alright.

Notice you can't join any of the asian server? Because they are all p2p, so you will need to pay to get on their server.

Here's the actual site you can go to now to see it:

They just switched domain names, not sure why.

Diablo™ · Feb 24, 2006, 04:06 AM // 04:06

onilink · Feb 24, 2006, 04:20 AM // 04:20
