Gender Locked Items (Lightning Edition)

The event will be repeated, but unless they make the quests repeatable

Of course the quests will be repeated. They're not going to have another event and not let people participate in it. I know we like to rag on square enix but give them a little credit.

More than likely exact same quests, therefore same variables storing completion.

or those variables may get reset after the event is over. THere's many different and relatively simple ways to handle this. Besides the fact that I've played many games with event quests that come back every time the event comes back.

Repeating the event on the other gender would be a lot simpler than creating an exchange system. It may even be such that there are actually seperate quests with seperate rewards by gender (which could be tested by using a fantasia after having completed the quests)

This has happened before, it'll do a simple script check

//if the input fields are equal to database values, no need to update and waste resources,hence, do nothing:
if ( (shioban_mooney = 1) //where 1 is complete 0 is incomplete
{
//do nothing
}
//If, however, (they are NOT equal and) input fields are not empty:
elseif (shioban_mooney = 0)
{
//do something.
}


They even stated that 'quests cannot be completed when the event has ended', meaning if you don't finish it now, you'd have to wait until February to complete it.


The gear quest is a one time thing, technically you can wait and do the gear quest until then but it will NOT repeat it.


Square Enix won't repeat a quest that drops event gear.


As for the AF comment, that was me referring to having 'two sets of an item', not the gender locking scenario, where-in if you already had AF from 1.0, but it wasn't in your inventory/armory chest at the time, it would give you a second (un-discarable) item.
