[SIZE="4"]It took the combined effort of EVERY player to unlock items that only a FEW OF THEM would get to buy and benefit from.
HOW CAN SOME OF YOU NOT SEE WHAT'S WRONG WITH THIS CONCEPT?[/SIZE]
Whether we knew in advance or not...-sigh- just... wow.
If you guys had a store near you that pulled something like this you know you'd call them garbage. Nexon is mirroring garbage. I'm so proud?
I'm not bashing for the limited quantity as usual (Though they seriously should have had greater quantites available), im bashing for the milestone concept stated above; truthfully it made this one worse than the other sales.
Well, its times like these i'm glad i play two games at once in my spare time. LaTale's black friday sale gave a 70% discount to super puzzles and some of the other high demand items in the game. and without none of this Limited Quantity bullpomegranate Nexon puls every year. I'm only mentioning this because there might be people who aren't aware that some F2P companies didn't suck so hard on Black Friday.

I swear to god, who ever came up with the concept of "Let's sell 100 items to a game that we advertise for having 10k+ players!" should be shot, hanged, fucking molested. First off, pam song's aren't available throughout the year, so lowering their price to 13k nx, then limiting them to 150-200 each is pretty much a cock tease. And how much common sense do you blatently need to see that, a product, that is cheaper, by made up fucking game points will cause a player to spend hoarded amount of those game points, will make said players go out and buy more for 2x/smega's/pets/gacha after the event is over. Seriously, nexon already has the money but they are essentially cutting off any snowball effect they could have.

I want to shake the hand and punch the face of the pimento who came up with this. Epic trolling is epic.

Same here. Main dc's, mules do not. Oddly enough, on one computer (XP Pro) the dc is incomplete (client closes but doesn't exit, I have to kill it from Task Manager), and on the other (XP Home) I get the "error code:38" and then eTracer pops up (but fails to send its report to Nexon).
Not too concerned about the sale, I can buy stuff on mules if I'm lucky enough to snag something before the rest of my server devours it.
But no CS for my main means no 2x card for this weekend's 2x events. This is not good. I wanted to level before Big Bang.

Holy pomegranate.
They probably lost tons of money. Since the sale on cubes was anticipated for about a month, I assume people didn't buy them, knowing they could get a discounted price later on. But since they sold 10 (LOL) nobody got them at the discounted price, and every single player who knows what they're doing is pissed off.
Seriously I lost some respect for Nexon. They've been doing decent (what am I saying?) lately. Now it's just... *faceplam*
Horrible sale is horrible.
gg, nexon.

People already bought the NX, Nexon has our money already. You don't buy items in the CS for dollars and cents directly, you use those dollars and cents to buy NX, and then use the NX to buy items in the CS. As long as people buy NX, Nexon makes money. Doesn't matter if they spend the NX or not.

They missed out on a lot of POTENTIAL income is what he meant, and what everyone else has been saying. Yes, it's undeniable that they made some money. They screwed themselves out of a lot, though.
Puppeteer actually illustrated a way in which I didn't even think of. People who were waiting for the sales likely didn't buy any of those items at full price for however long. So by advertising those items so early, they likely halted their sales. That makes me feel a little better. (Given that these are such hot items it would've also put somewhat of a halt on charging, in case you're going to say PEOPLE WERE STILL CHARGING. By not advertising the sale before hand people would've charged as usual and then charged more in anticipation for the sale. This way they only got the sale charges)

Exactly what my sister is waiting for as well. She got a pair of hammers for her VIP bow. Now she just needs Pams Song to try and scroll it as best as possible...

I wouldn't DC, but MS would crash when I enter the Cash Shop. I found that toggling the quality of MS would fix the problem.
