Firefall Faire 2012?

[JackDaniels]

The rest of your post was unnecessary to post, and didn't have anything to do with what I had to say. Why post something unrelated? I replied to the part where you were being rude and assuming everyone had a choice to play at the time. That was what I was replying to - your unnecessarily rude reply and assumptions.

This:


had nothing to do with what I wanted to say. But since you wanted me to quote it. Here you go. O.o;

you know what he thinks when he posts?


During the festival last year I had 50 carpenter but my highest fighting class was around 15. I couldn't participate in the event because of the transition from 'everyone will be able to do everything derpaderp, to well.. yoshi-p's interpretation of the scenario.. so i'd like to add to the list of whiners and say that this is a little unfair.

wait was this for DoW/DoM only? I could have sworn others could do it as long as there where others around that could kill the mobs that spawned.

For the people saying "it's not f2p, we had to buy the game disk", well guess what? I too bought the game disk, back when SE released FFXIV. I even played the game for a month... But then real life issues made it so I couldn't play~ So while you say it wasn't f2p (there was no subscription) we are now all currently paying a monthly fee to play this game (p2p). We both made the same initial purchase of the game disk... But it shouldn't be added simply because I wasn't able to play during FFXIVs free period?

That makes no sense...

Cut out the F2P/P2P crap, only main concern for you is the part I highlighted.
Again it's because YOU couldn't play during this time that you feel that SE needs to hand it to you. I'm sorry you had real life issue but that not SE's problem is it?

SE just mentioned they will not add any recipes for them so that's one thing (doesn't mean they aren't adding the reward in future) and this years main reward is already confirmed on JP side that will be the Yukata/Geta wear, if they add the swimsuit as side reward grats for you but if it doesn't come out don't cry about it and just wait for next year or year after that. Pretty sure they will bring back sometime, or like other said could be where you can get the standard silver, red, blue, green but not the gold like the egg cap that came back but not being able to get the chocobo egg cap.

Either way, Should they or shouldn't. I hope they do, I desperately need something to do so I can get my mind off this silly 2.0 business, The info is like crack.

Oh dear one of those I'm entitled threads again. Stop posting for a couple days and another one reappears.

Too bad...so sad...that's the part of being in an MMO things change...

There's always gonna be new stuff coming out. And old stuff going away.

I feel like FFXI did it right. If you missed out you got to obtain the old items next year, along with new items sometimes.
(I've always hated games where you could miss out on gear that was just for looks - never get the chance to obtain it ever again.)
SE, please let those who missed out on swimsuits obtain them through an NPC or something this year. I'm sure it would mean a lot to them. <3 ^^

I understand your points Rein, and I'm not here to gripe about anything you said. It just frustrates me, when SE changes the model they've used for so long. In XI, there wasn't anything that was miss-able as far as I can remember. And people being ecstatic that this might be the case just irritated me. I'm not upset about the chocobo helm, I wouldn't be upset about the gold model. What would upset me is if SE never released any of last years items again. The easter event was a perfect example as some put up before me. Heck, even XI's event history leads me to believe the standard rewards will be obtainable... but I dislike the attitude some people have where it's like they say too bad so sad but you lost out. Exclusive items are meant to be exclusive, but when every year in XI you could get the previous year's items... It makes one think that it is the same case in this game.

I was given the argument that it wasn't free to play... and I explained why I thought otherwise. I don't feel entitled to every event item SE released before I started playing again, I'm fine with some exclusives... But to say, nope your stuck with those ugly ass undergarments (IMO) simply because you missed an event that, with all assumptions on the table, should be repeatable is silly. I look forward to getting the yukata & geta... maybe the have a gold (or less tacky) "special" version for that. But next year, if I see new people in the game I'm going to tell them they can look forward to XYZ event and get Yukata's & Geta. And yes, they can QQ if they can't get the "special" version... but if the first summer event when 2.0 comes out, they can't get the Yukata's and Geta... I'd be pissed along with them. Simply because it's not like SE (using XI's event standards) to do something like that.

TL;DR I'm not bitching about the oh so precious "gold bikini", but the rest that should be obtainable.

Do we know if they will/won't be obtainable? No. But that's the whole reason this thread was made. Hopefully we'll get an answer.

I'm ok with new players being able to get the old event items as long as its done the same way they did Easter this year. Able to get all the hats save for the "highest" one, namely the chocobo helm. Like I said earlier, maybe new players this summer can only get the silver suit, or the silver and the colours, but not the gold.

That way new players can whine (less) and older players who were around for the event get to keep some of the "veteran" status given by having exclusive event items.

Exactly how it should be
