Patch File

I'm sure every knows about it now and there's probably no need to alert you guys about it. However, I just uploaded the patch file because I know a few people has been having problems patching up. So if you have some error that says something File not found or whatever, download the zip file here:

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=TINSIA88

And then run the .exe file in there. That's the patch.

Happy patching!

dont really much like the items their selling

i only liked the more XP and more drop rate

but they only come in a set that cost 10000++ points about $20

I hate when items got a timelimit. D:

yeh

only 2hrs for the major bonus items T_T

THe only thing I might purchase is the upgrading equipment, but then again, upgrading is expensive just for the Elrues/Lixes/Xirs that you need.

Yeah, and temporary items suck

pros:
there are some nice items. xp and drop stuff seems smeksy. pots as well.
cons:
i would be a LOT happyier buying these items when at least MOST bugs were corrected
i loathe tradeble IS items and upgrade chance-booster because they are one of the best way to make money for the CCFing money selling lewsers.
inventory expander? time limited? hmpf. i rarely get my 2 pages full. and if i, do i just fill my storage/mule.
pets? +2 to stats (well, since everyone already has a pet, its only +1)? time limited as well? spending my hard earned money for it? not a bad joke, but april is far away yet

my wiev on the IS as it is now, it came a bit too early.
the xp thingie is nice, but i can live without it. i rather enjoy the game as leveling at lightspeed. futhermore, the number of lv59 people is growing who can not benefit from it at all
what i have no idea of is how these drop chance pills are supposed to be working.
only if im soloing? great, will be a lot harder to find a cleric.
or if in a party, is it enough if 1 guy has it activated? why would i but them then? to get a 50% better drop chance of which i will only get my 20% share (in a 5man party)

i dont want to offend anyone with this post, its all just personal opinions

Please note that what outspark is doing is just a market strategy. They will release items that arent as "wanted" as others and people will buy because the items they want arent there. Then they will slowly release a couple items every week or bi-weekly and people will continue to buy those items because the items they want arent there. They will release the better items later. Its done in ALOT of games with cash shops.

Well, Outspark is in a gaming business. And like any other "business", in order to survive this though world, it has to make money some how; so that we, the addicts, can enjoy life's little pleasure. Cash shop is there for the true addicts and those that have too much money. And for the latter, contact me cause i do need money :p

I like cash shops. But limited items? These items are alot cheaper than they would be in other games, so it might makes sense to make them limited. I still don't like it though. Don't count on me to buy any of those houses or pets or horses or clothing. Totally not worth it. But those Refreshers, Upgrading equipment( red blue things) are pretty cool

Hey, you can think of time limited stuff as candy :) Once you gobble it up it's gone for good. Except it don't make you fat :D

I will only buy an outfit when it is unlimited.

then how would they make money?

Thanks blaaahs, i think they did something lastnight though since fiesta patched properly today >.<

was it all time limited when u guys had cash shop in CB??

maybe if we harrass them enough they might make some unlimited ones for 6x the price... that's wat Gunbound did XD

@Hessah Yes they were time limited BUT they also had much better items. For example the HP/SP extenders were not no crudy %30 they were %150 and %250 I believe the GM's even gave out a few %300 in a couple events. Also when we bought those HP/SP extenders in CB they came in a pack of like 20 and lasted anywhere from 2-4 hours.

Ok so ive already purchased many things from the shop and so far I can tell you guys if you buy anything the HP pot is so awsome it has no cool down you can spam it as fast as u can and it heals that fast, same with the SP pot.
Also the item enchantment things are decent they have saved me a few times and they come in stacks of 10. The wodden horse is pretty fast and fun. The drop rate doesnt seem to work that well but it helps somewhat same with the exp thing. But hehe lucky for me ive already found a glitch in the items 1 of the items says it lasts for only lets say 1 hour but really it lasts for 24 hours im not sure if they ment to do that or not but it does. Im not gona release what that item is because im sure they would patch it pretty fast as there losing money. Anyways the shop aint too bad I wish they would sell some of the items that come in the packs seperate but oh well.

PS: If your gona start a boycot for the unlimited items lets add a mail system and PVP to that hehe :-P

Sorry for double post but uh look at this:

Good evening Fiesta users,

At approximately 9:00PM (PDT) on Thursday, November 1, 2007, we will be conducting an emergency maintenance patch. Service will resume at approximately 11:00PM (PDT) although we do not expect maintenance to run the full length. Upon the return of service, functionality of some items will be fixed according to the shop descriptions.

We apologize for this incovenience and will do our best to resume service as soon as possible.

Thank you,
-Outspark Staff



I guess they found the items that are messed up and have glitched times more then what they say there supposed to be :(

u know the erm... extender i think it was.. had a 1day and 10 day option.. and description was "HP/SP extender for 2hrs" or wat ever it was...

wats the difference betweenthe 1 day and 10 day if the extender last for 2 hrs... the 10 day one will have more 2 hr pots?

Hmmm yea I think thats what they did remember I said back in CB they gave us stacks at a time well im guessing they made it so you can buy 1 which would be 1 day and 10 day would be a stack of 10 and they are assuming you would use 1 per day I guess. Im not sure though I havnt bought that yet and I dont really plan too %30 increase is not much at all its like using a Vit scroll not worth it if you ask me, but they do stack with each other so if you used a vit scroll,extender and the cleric buff game over :)

It could be worse. Like 1 item is $10

Does it go away if you die like a Vit scroll does?

They anwsered that question about the extenders in the outspark forums i think. i belieive they said it was a typo, its not a hp or sp extender for 1 day or 10 days. Its 1 hp or sp extender (wich works for 2 hours), or a pack of 10.
hope this info helps, and please correct me if im wrong about this.

Exactly what I said manji2501 and no it doesnt go away after you die.

So if it buffs both SP + HP for 2 hours and dosen't go away when you die, how is that not way better than a Vit scroll?

Am I the only one that thinks that?

It is better but id have to say the BEST item is the HP pot that holds like 100,000 healing. I went to a Mara KQ with my 25 mage and tanked not just Mara but also Marlone at the SAME TIME and owned them both everyone was amazed a mage tanking the boss and both bosses at once at that HA!

PS: I know the clothes used to give more DEF back in CB but they dont give anything anymore so dont be fooled into buying it.

Just to clarify... the cost to charge up SparkCash are in US dollars right?

yep

I think USD and AUD are just about equal these days.

haha just making sure its not like Pounds or something coz that's like 2.5x HAHa

The prices have a DOLLAR SIGN next to them...it was pretty obvious...

0.o i hope u're not serious

not all dollar sign means US dollar.

The US Dollar sign always means USD :D

I just noticed that for the first 2 months/2 purchases they limit you to 1 purchase per month for the first 2 months and you can only buy up to 14000 which is like right at $20. I think thats stupid but I guess there just makin sure the game doesnt get over powered with cash shop items.... Sucks though cuz now I have to wait another month before I can buy anything again. :(

and u cant put the cash shop item in your storage as they're not tradable...

now i've got 6 blue miles sitting in my inventory -.- taking up space

How does the.. erm... Cash shop HP Pots work? It says that there's 50,000 HP... (or watever it was) so its 1 potion that u can use repeatly until you finish the 50,000HP?

...
 

-Wishes had a paypal.-

Correct. It only uses the amount that you need.

Yep and it has NO cooldown thats how me a mage was tanking both mara and marlone at once with about 700hp you can spam that thing and never die its really amazing and im sure they will fix it sometime later on.

oh so there's suppose to be cool down?

that's a pretty mad item XD but so expensive... LOL

they should just keep it at no cool down keke

How much HP did u hv left in the pot after tanking 2 boss?

Well if marlone and mara somehow times their spells correctly, you'll be one dead duck. Anyway 50k hp is quite a bit... Even more for the 100k hp pot. Stop making me jealous. I don't even know my bank account number to use paypal.

your parents are hiding ur bank account details from you "for your own good" <-- thats a singapore saying, is it?

I made up the 50k HP figure coz i couldnt be bothered checking when i posted... but since i've checked the cash shop and the HP Pot gives 100k HP.

but for 2,800 sparkcash... thats a nice chunk out of my 7,000 sparkcash.

o.0 But ain't it quite worth it? Yea and everything's "For my own good"

Give me the money you got from your birthday. I'll keep it in the bank (Whose account?) It's for your own good. T_T
