About the EU campaign for maid outfit and fat chocobo

[IzVale]

Greetings everyone,

Thanks for all your feedbacks.
Unfortunately this issue is now sold out online however there is still stock at retail shops including Tescos, Asda, Sainsbury’s and Morrissons.
If you have any questions please contact gamesmaster@futurenet.com

We still plan to have other promotions across Europe in the coming months.

"other promotions..in the coming months" - as 'fortunate' for every player as this one?

Btw thank you for deleting comments again. Makes us feel like worthy customers <3

We all know the answer to that question already from both consumer and company view.

I am not even European and this entire thing disgusts me. I dont know how they can justify such a thing as fair. How can they honestly say "well just search across the land for 10 days checking every magazine stop along the way and maybe you can find one then repeat again next month" and expect people to go "sure that sounds fantastic". Who in their right mind would approve such a thing as an acceptable promotional deal. I hope that the other deals are far better but this is still a horrible promotion. They wonder why the square enix brand is getting more and more damaged over the years.

So after 53 pages of feedback we get this info? I mean, thank you for informing us that we don't need to hope for a restock, that /is/ important to know and I'm grateful. But here are 53 pages where people guessed possible reasons, demanded explanations or the slightest of infos regarding the other EU campaigns. It may be just vanity items in the end but this thread is burning brighter than the sun the past days. I honestly would have expected a bit more but my guess is you can't say more (at this point).

Anyway, thanks for lettung us know, this way people won't hopefully F5 the website in hopes the orders open up again. I'm praying that the other EU campaigns will be thought through better.

With all due respect most of us are already well aware of the fact that the issues are now sold out. For those of us who live in the UK it isn't as easy to find a physical copy of the magazine in our local supermarkets/newsagents as implied either. Add to the fact that we're forced to compete with people elsewhere in Europe I would very much like to know what is going to be done to ensure that UK players are able to secure the desired codes to get their items. North American and Japanese players had very few issues getting hold of the codes - why is there such a major disparity between the ease at which they could gain the items compared to how UK/EU players can?

Whelp mods are fast deleting posts with harmless gifs (took like 1 min to delete?), so I guess I'll have to type what that gif expressed.

MonthS: as plural, why release this UK campaign alone if we might wait months to other countries to come?
If is gona take even more months to get this promotions on other countries in EU, for the love of the twelve, use some of this thread footage/feedback as guide.

I think it's best that people restrain themselves and try to avoid posting anything resembling a snide comment or a joke. I can understand everybody's frustration - trust me I'm eager to get access to the items myself to add to my collection - but we need to ensure that the thread doesn't end up getting locked. If it does then there's valid reasoning for future threads regarding the same subject to be shut down as well which will result in the issue fading into obscurity.

So issue 306 is sold out after 1 day... I do not drive so now I have to wait and see IF the UK is able to participate next time and hope i can fulfill the requirements or I loose out again?

Please put some extra planning into the next round please.....

They are showing contempt for their players right now in here in my opinion with regards to deleting posts. They deleted mine I think just because I said I was not going to buy the magazines since I considered it a bad deal and that I was going to wait to see what the other EU promotions were like but would rather do without the items than cave in and support what is essentially a bad deal for UK players. It was not deleted because I merely pointed out someone else was using sarcasm because that sarcastic post still exists and so deleting my post in reference to that would be pointless, I was not rude, I did not swear and I was being civil.

I could think of UK soft drink Promo's to tie in with this game, Final "FANTA"sy XIV , or Final Fan-Tizer-sy if SE did their home work and worked with things people could use like over in Japan. It wouldn't have been hard, i mean you had a deal with coca cola years ago for IX , so pushing Promo's through soft drinks has never been a problem, even snacks, Fridge raiders, monster energy drink, things people buy, I mean Amazon in the US sounded like a nightmare for the residents there, but at least they only had to make a $20 order which is what about £15 here in the UK. This thread has angered me for the past few days since i seen it posted, and i refrained from posting until today... you game is a hit, yet you throw bad deals at us hoping we accept, whoever in your Promo dept said this was a sure thing needs to be fired because he lives in the 90's.

Is it bad that I'm a player in the UK, but at this rate I'm just hoping I can order something on German Amazon to a random address in the hopes of getting a DIGITAL BUTLER OUTFIT?! I'm going to end up getting a random family a copy of Dirge of Cerberus on the PS-bladdy-2 just to qualify because the UK promotion was more of a bladdy competition!

I don't mean to play the whiny bitch card, but we pay monthly for this game, if you aren't going to fix the problem we could at least have an explanation as to why this was ever considered a good idea?!
