Chinese/Korean servers : New exclusive mount

[Warlyx]

WHAT? noooooooooooooo i want it NOOOOW!!!!

[Felis]

the fact that they pay on a day-to-day basis instead of 60/30 days at a time. In any case, I do not know what exactly is different in CH/KR versions of the game, but it does not seem fair to me that they are rewarded with an emote, a cloud mount and a new outfit... meanwhile we get Monkey Butt Helmets for Heavensturn maid and butler costume and Legacy chocobo... yay...

I fixed it a bit. I'm sure they don't have those costume and the Legacy Chocobo on their servers.

SE please give me the ability to get all of these things!

I neat as it (spent my tenager years watching DBZ on TV... & YuGiOh lol, odd way to be introdiced to Anime but meh) I personally won't be to sad if we don't get it, this doesn't mean I won't be sad just I won't be cry'n waterfalls in an anime fashion (as hilarious as that would be from an outside perspective)

so I vote "yes" to asking for it, but won't "demand" it

[Derio]

They could give European/ US a yellow version of the cloud and call it an exclusive for our region

I fixed it a bit. I'm sure they don't have those costume and the Legacy Chocobo on their servers.

They probably will since they have a unique currency system that allows them to earn cosmetic rewards from doing daily missions. Those cosmetic rewards are usually stuff like veteran rewards. I am sure they will get the maid/butler items in a similar fashion.

Even if the Chinese/Korean regions don't get the maid/butler promo items, It's still vastly unfair as they are getting a mount that has no equivalent anywhere in game and all we got was a lousy fat choco reskin. I don't understand why you are vehemently opposed to something that A: would have no impact on your personal gameplay and B: would only serve to make more players happy.

Isn't the Chinese and Korean version not directly handled by SE?
They get exclusive stuff because a different company is modeling it.

SE still designs the items, They could incorporate the same item or variants in other regions.

Yep. China has their own company that distributes the game and designs content because it makes it easier for SE to have a Chinese company ensure that the game abides by Chinese censorship laws. Korea is handled by another company because of their laws regarding billing- in Korea they can't be charged for "30 days unlimited access" like we pay, so they legally have to buy chunks of hours that are only consumed when they actually are logged in. There might be some other censorship laws in place but again that company is who makes the Korean exclusives, just like China's company makes theirs. Not SE.

SE designed the Korean New Year's Attire, I am pretty sure they designed the rest of the promo items incorporated in different regions.

Not a fan of the gear from the op link, but the mount is quite cute.

Cool if it ever is made available to us.

Is this on the second page? This should not be on the second page.

Time to correct this. SE should hear that many people do not like region exclusives :3

So what? Shanda Games apparently will not contact SE to see if they can get the Butler or Maid costumes and Legacy Chocobo mount? For that matter, I would not consider the Legacy Chocobo a proper item as it is a veteran item for those who did play 1.0, so don't bring up 1.0 items when 1.0 was never released in China officially. Only 1.0 subscribers get it anyways, and it's fair, because they paid for the 1.0 sub time. As for the Maid and Butler costumes, my comment still stands, what exactly is stopping Shanda Games from contacting SE to see if they can get it for their customers? Nothing is. Also, what makes you so sure they don't have those items and never will get those items? Do you play on the Chinese or Korean servers? Have you asked someone if those items are not on their version(s) of the game? Please, humor me.

I am not questioning anyone's morals, I am not making fun of anyone's morals. Her words were literally "Why does everyone have to automatically have to act as if they were shunned or wronged by the game?", this is taking on a mindset that 'You aren't wronged or shunned by the game developers", this is partially true, but also untrue, because if that were not the case, we would receive the items as well. But I am simply stating the facts here... Square Enix used Amazon to do the Summer DLC Campaign, that's all fine and well. But then you have the freeloaders who do not pay for their product (i.e. ordering a pre-order game, and then canceling after receiving their code), and people have contacted support and they have said that they don't do anything about the matter of people freeloading promotions. But I've heard they are perma-banning them now, so that's good to hear. But the fact that it is happening isn't a good sign, I'll give you that.

They don't, as far as I know too... but I never bashed SE, I never once criticized them. I criticized Amazon for not enforcing the promotional rules of buy 1 item that is $19.99 or above, get codes. Instead its buy OR pre-order $19.99 or more, contact support, get codes, and cancel. And they've not done anything for the first few days, but recently, as I said before, they've started permabanning accounts.

"I can't have it so I want it"..

See this thread every time something like this pops up. Don't even get me started on the huge legacy flame war when fresh players wanted the legacy exclusive rewards. Disregarding that, we have tonnes of mounts.. More mounts than we even have decent glamour.. I personally think the mount designs / ideas are beginning to borderline between cool and ridiculous, and a flying cloud would just add to the horrible quiver of spinning turtles and gigantic dandelions. A few exclusive items are fine, and I am sure we have things that they don't - you just don't know it because it doesn't effect you.

I would much rather the time spent on creating mounts be spent on improving our limited choices for glamour.
