It is with regret that we have to announce that as of Jan 22nd Persistent Worlds has ceased trading. The servers will be shut down in due course.

must have been terrible

You must read the posts above.

Nope, it looks like they might actually be going out of business. 'Ceased Trading' doesn't mean beta's over, it means 'We're financially screwed.' The Acclaim site doesn't have anything yet, but I think they're just the American Publisher. Persistent Worlds are the developer (?) and they seem to have folded.

Lol. Persistent Worlds I think is some server company or something. To host european servers. But akklaim is still up and working. So the game might or might not close down. For now just play and enjoy the game innit, rather than getting bothered.

Yeh it does, it lowers defence. But if you look closely you hit with every single blow. Took me ages to work out what it did.

Anyone know where the Bloodwolves are I can't find them.

The game developers are actually Korean. Acclaim host the US server and Persistent Worlds host the European one. Persistent Worlds ceased trading and shut down their server last night with no warning.

I had been playing on the Persistent Worlds server since the beginning of closed beta. Any Euro players can only hope they don't wipe the server and another company will take over it. In the meantime, if we need our 9Dragons fix, we'll have to play on the US server, with higher population and, I assume, more lag too.

As has already been said that just the company that runs the European servers not the game makers. Korean and USA servers should be fine.
