Extension of Rose Petal Event and Subseqent Turn-In

[KnowingEyes7]

Wartune(.com) looks as if they EXTENDED the petal event to March 8th. Congrats if they bring it over to R2. This should be music to every free-player's ears.

of course u dont see a problem here u work for r2

Nice retort. No logic presented whatsoever. No countermanding, nothing of substance. Thank you for your input.

Could a mod close this since it's very likely in error?

How about I present to you this scenario: The 1.5X/1.51 patch arrived and had few very bugs. Everything proceeded as planned. Do you think they would have extended the February series of events then (by 9 days)? I don't think they would have.

You also have to consider that the player has intelligence. Why not hold the petals until the events are officially over? I'm not sure why players dumped them. The moment the patch started having major problems is the moment free players should have thought, "hmmm... R2 is pretty decent about giving compensations... and it seems a lot of players on the test servers are missing out on petals... so maybe, just MAYBE there will be a compensation somehow".

On top of all this, I am sure there are plenty of free players out there that have patently waited for an opportunity such as this and are GLAD they extended the events. Not everyone dumps and runs at the first sign of a setback.

By the way, the key pack sale is nothing but beneficial. I don't care how it arrived or if it were planned. It allows crypt keys to be bought at a discount and a nice chunk of keys as a BONUS. I sincerely don't see a problem here.

guys slow your roll only thing getting extended is the rose boxes you must buy free players are not getting the mount

2 thing getting extended rose box 145 balen and the exchange button for piggy

good catch...i'm letting people in my guild know that it's a possibility, but i'm definitely keeping an eye out for details. ************ is vague on what this means.

If that's the case, "oh". Sorry.

Isn't it obvious now that they know ahead of time what is going to happen and what to do to make it go there way? First it started out small by having only crypt keys and socket rods for cashers. Then they started allow non cashers get them. That wasn't such a big deal but you can start to see what they are doing from there. Now they are making there own things like limiting the summong event so people will panic. Then once they find out tons of people are posting on forums they release the key pack sale? So they can rush and buy them before the patch hits all servers? For this event they have all these events but it isn't possible to get the pig w/o it being free. They wait till the very last min once everyone opens there pockets and then boom! Extends it. It is very obvious that this was planned out from the beginning.

All the other events allowed both cashers and non cashers get the main rewards from it. They suddenly changed it up this month? Why for such things? They did that because they realized that they weren't making much money due to people saving whips and such to get the main rewards. This time they fooled everyone by saying "it's only a casher event" and not letting us know about extensions until the very last min of the event. I got to hand it to R2 though. They really know how to make bank. They really know how to "scam" players out of there money with out it being illegal. Bravo R2 Bravo! You really know how to run a business.

I'm not sure if I "buy" that explanation (see what I did there? :P).

You can look at events in both a positive and negative light. I mean, what can they do to appease you with respect to the February events/pig mount? I don't think they *can* at this point (according to your sentiment) and so the resulting harsh posts began. Can you honestly state that this was planned in advance? I sure as hell can't.

I still hold true to the rationale of, "the patch kind of effed over certain servers so to make amends let's extend events by *9* days". 9 days @ 3 petals per day (assuming this is true extension) adds 27 petals (-2 for the maintenance likely). That's 25 to 27 petals for a delay. That's a HUGE chunk. In fact, it's so large that free players now have the opportunity to get the mount. In a convoluted sort of way, one could say, "thank God for the problems of the patch"... that is, if you cared for the mount.

That's not the point. The reason why it was bad isn't bc the key pack. The key pack is a great deal dont get me wrong. The scheme is that they did this right when people started to complain about limited summons. A poster here explained it. Now I see R2 games they play with us and this won't happen again. Ill make sure im almost 1 step ahead of them now. Thing makes me upset the most is I had a feeling from the beginning of this pig event that either they will extend it or give out more quests to do, and I still didn't follow my gut feeling. I decided to listen to the majority of people and just use the petals since it didn't see any type of light down the tunnel coming anytime soon.

hey it looks like only the rose box and the pig exchange part is extended not for the free player its only extended for people to buy more boxes

The Rose Box and Piggy Exchange event should be ended on 27th, Feb, the

day of 1.51 new version update. For your better enjoyment of these two eve-

nts, we decided to extend these two events to 24:00 8th, Mar, server time.

Plz note this and continue your enjoyment.

Thank you for your support to our game.

I made a mistake once for my mysterious resources. My guildmate told me to sell it (I had 12 of them) and I sold them for 10k gold each, and got a total of 120k gold. Now, you can exchange them for 100k each (1.2mil total). I "lost" about 1mil, and was upset about it but I wouldn't blame R2... (and I'm saying this because I'm a forum mod -- I'm not paid by them).

Extending is fine but they shouldn't wait till the last min to do so. At least give it a few days notice or something. Waiting to the very last min just screams out greed and scheme.

hmm I dont find the key pack to bad. Putting aside the skel keys, it also comes with a crypt key. So ur essentially getting the crypt key at a lower price.
