Old Summer Event Items on Mogstation

Hey SE, I know that with Heavensward launching, we may not see the same kind of summer event as the past years, but I, and likely others, have been patiently waiting for old items to hit the Mogstation. I really wish I had gotten that Striped Tanga and those 1.0 kimonos!

Any word on if these items becoming available soon?

It will probably be there since that's been their trend to sell older event items in the ca$h $hop.

Dear SE: I happen to find myself with alot of excess cash these days, instead of saving it or use it on something else I would rather spend it on glamors that were one attainable without me spending real money. Instead of asking for you to return these items during the seasonal events while adding additional items every year expanding upon the event giving it more content over years...Why not let me spend my hard earned money instead?

The older Moonfire Faire costumes were sold, not for real cash, in the lasts events. Can't see why it shouldn't be the same this year.. And please stop asking for things to get sold in the cash shop. It's not an healthy route >.>

please, no! I'm sicked of guy in real life female characters running around in swimsuit.

You saying you don't like guy in RL running around as female character in game wearing a swimsuit? If so you will be disappointed cause new swimwear coming out this month for the 2015 summer event.

I wish they'd put last summers event items up sooner.

I'd really like those sandals I never got. Don't care about the kimonos, I just want the foot piece, they look so nice.

The last Moonfire Faire was the last event (along with the Anniversary event) that happened before the Cash Shop was even a thing. When the next event rolled around (the Halloween event), the cash shop just got up and ever since then every event has sold old event items in the cash shop. It's not so much as asking for it as it is just stating the obvious to happen, then asking when the event itself will happen since, along with the event, the old items will be available for real money purchase too.

I'm gonna take this as sarcasm. I hope. @_@

FFS guys... stop asking for things to be sold in the cash shop. Holiday event gear should always be available for in-game currency.

I realize they're probably going to put it on the cash shop... but ugh. The least we could all do is protest it.

And that will get you nowhere, because plenty of people will still buy the stuff.

It's precisely this attitude that will result in this game being destroyed by a cash shop.

Puting purely vanity items in the cash shop isn't going to destory the game.

You hoped right. They need to just add the previous years event items to be purchasable from the rewards NPC. Make the new stuff earned from the event and keep cycling the old stuff onto the vendors so people don't feel left out. Personally I prefer having the items only once making some items unique and only available for that specific year but I get people are glamor crazy and want it available to them if they missed it.

Make this stuff attainable ingame...everything you put on the cash shop give players a chance to play for it.

But only if you did the previous event.
You missed, you lost. A simple rule that worked already in every else MMORPG and that also worked during 1.x

Here here! More cash shop items! I do not mind tossing extra RL money to SE for cool items!

Don't need it. Just bann the cash shop out of your mind and be here to do the saisonal events while they are happen. Then you can buy them for gil from the event vendor and later from the calamity NPC.

This is a subscription-based MMO. Every single thing on that cash shop represents SE double-dipping and violating their subscription model. They already put a third retainer on the cash shop. If people just placidly accept more and more stuff, it won't stop there.

I doubt that getting rewards of missed events is part of the subscriptions.

Hey I don't like Roe males only wearing leopard tanga dancing and "running around", nor darkest dark of emo darkness people going all they can to make their chars look dark. but I get over it, look at my pretty char and welcome all people tastes (as long as those roes don't star dancing on top of my char)

Do you write the guide MMO's need to follow based on their model? Probably not, because it doesn't exist.

Do you make the MMO's? No, you don't.

They're not 'violating' anything.

Although, it's absolutely fair not to intend buying vanity shop goods, apparently I'm in the minority of being willing (becuase certainly it doesn't come across as people being unable) to budget 5 dollars toward vanity on a character I'm already willing to spend hours on to further support a game I deeply enjoy.

Weird. It's like I appreciate artists or something.


Anyway, it was more of a "when and if" question. It's already August and we've seen nothing but Heavensward related goodies since 3.0 dropped late June, so I was concerned if we'll see a summer event of some kind this year due to timing.

By the looks of it, new summer themed items were patched in yesterdays patch.

This upcoming Mogstation maintenance on the 5th may be when last years summer items go available for sale, and then probably the new summer event following shortly after.
