    boiheader

    Greetings "BoIs" and Girls,

    My name is Xarfox and I've been blessed with working at Perfect World Entertainment for quite some time now.  Some of you may know me from my work with Perfect World International.

    Some of you may have also noticed that with the new recent changes to our snazzy website, there has been a new game added which has been dubbed "Battle of the Immortals" or BoI for short.  (Pronounced - "Boyeeeee")

    One of the primary complaints I see from players across all of our titles here at PWE is that our games share a lot of similar characteristics.  Time and time again I hear or read, "Oh great another copy/paste game from Perfect World."  I could spend an entire era writing about why I don't agree with that statement, but that's not what I'm here to write about today.

    BoI is probably the most unique offering to date from Perfect World Entertainment.  What most people may not know, is that a majority of our titles come from our development studio in Beijing, China.  BoI is one of the first titles developed by our development studio in Shanghai.  This is one of many reasons why Boyeeeee (5 E's usually) is going to provide our users with an experience totally unlike any of our current offerings.

    So what's so special about BoI?  What makes it unique?

    Let's start with my favorite aspect of BoI, the gear!

     Crazy Claws

    The armor and weapons in BoI are incredibly detailed.  Even the gear you get as a noob is fairly intricate and unique.  The set pictured above doesn't even begin to illustrate how crazy the armor is.  What you can't see is that the claws independently move occasionally, and the eyes located on the knuckles of the claws look around as you battle enemies.  Let's move on.

     Epicness Behold!

    The armor set above looks fairly epic as you can see.  The metal wings and feathers all independently move and shift, giving you a new way to flex on people you destroy in PvP.  This last image paints a much better picture in terms of the gear animation in BoI.

    You may want to click on the above image and expand it to get a true sense of how insane this set is.  You can see how the helmet can open and closes.  The shield itself has an open and closed state, and even the weapon has two different modes to convey your gamer prowess to your enemies.

    BoI is shaping up to be a truly unique and intense game.  Keep checking the PWE blog for more information in the coming weeks.  ;)

    i play several games 2 of them is PWI and JD, but recently ive only been sticking with guild wars and PWI seems like this game may bring the other games to shame except for Guild Wars. My time playing PWI and JD ive learned several things. Having a bot system in JD works great, but also keeping it away in PWI hurts for newer players.

    this is EPIC in my dictonary of epicness love the claws that move independly and eyes on the knockles that look around lol, that gotta be freaky but cool =D dudes, something I enjoy about playing an MMORPG is that I could get epic armor sets, if they are not epic the game doesn't feel epic (reason why I quitted wow, after 4 years of playing, their art department sucks now lol)

    Man this game has now been on my mind for days now and i cant even imagaine how long were gonna have to wait, but it is totally gonna be 10 out of 10 in my books i love the perfect world team there a bit of things they can change but not too many. PWI and JD have been my favorite games since they came out i think PWI and JD has come a long way. And it seems PWE is gonna make another game that i will be playing for hours on end like i have on PWI and JD. BoI is gonna make gamers rethink what they think of a normal mmo :P

    I only have played PWI but i love it and the Tide born's meditation is Cool

    Am definitely looking forward to this game, and definitely plan on checking it out when it is released sometime in February. On a side note, even if it is a copy and paste i really can't blame you all for using similar content, especially when it take hours upon days, upon weeks... upon months to complete something completely different, and unique. I am sure this game will have some very unique features in it, and it sounds like there is more being added to the territory wars section of the 'game' which sounds real interesting, maybe there will be more colorful maps in the game's future, as long as everyone can keep the same pace. I realize there are other different things being added to this game, like the armor, which really does look epic, but I am real interested in the 'new' territory war aspect of this game.

    For some weeks now ive been playing JD and PW and noticed how the game policys are different, where as JD u can bot and PW u cant. Wondering if their gonna add a bot/macro system for players who dont have time and players who hate clicking, ive played Eve Online and i can tell long hours of continuious mining bots are good. Another thing i noticed is that the incredible lag i get when im not even in high populated areas on JD and PW. The other part of this im trying to get at is the fact that, Is BoI gonna have better policy cause i seriously think that this game looks incredibly awesome
