You know how much bans were given to people that abused paypal for cashshop items and not paying the rl money in Trickster Online? It's somewhat similar to this "glitch" of yours. This would only turn into that if the GMs detect it., so hf with people complaining about their characters getting banned.

people with little/no cash to buy these items will never be able to compete with oters.
guildwars will be won by the guild whos members spent more to get their items high upgraded/has more members using those +50% attack/defence thingies
instead of hearing shouts like "XY guild rescuting lv55+ people" we will hear "xx guild rescuting people with over xx cashshop-points to use"

im not funny, i know. but these items seem to make one a way too much stronger then others, who doesnt use them

Oh God... no! NO! NO!!! Its FlyFF all over again! Eff this. Once the Fiesta Store opens i'm quiting. I'm not going to be outdone by stupid bastards with too much money. Or spoiled rich kids. Besides, the entire game will be ruined once people begin purchasing stuff giving them unfair advantages over the rest of us who can't afford to spend on something like a game. I mean honestly, if you're going to make a game free to play then make it free to play! Not free to play and then get raped by everyone because you're too poor to afford our overpriced pieces of shit! /end rant

And I wonder how many companies are out there willing to making a game that is completely free with so many people employed working on the game? The only completely free game I can think of from the top of my head is Runescape - and look at the quality of the game.

Cash shop sucks when you can't buy stuff from it, but hey, you can't expect a company to make it completely free. Where are they going to get all the money from then? They have to pay the people who's working for them. I agree that FlyFF was a bit ruined with the cash shop items, but if Fiesta doesn't treat cash shop items like God, then it's not going to be that bad.

Free to play games with cash shop > p2p games. At least I still get to play the game. You will have to constantly fork money out for p2p games, whereas in a f2p game, you have the option to not spend money.

Of course, it's a bit unfair for those who can't buy them, but since when is the world fair? Dx

yeah i guess it really depends on how they structure the cash shop.. i think FLyff went wild when the cost of Sprotects went bezzerk... it was 700k penya when i had 500k.. then by the time i had 700k it wasl ike 1.5mil or something.. i quit since then but i was told that it just went up and up and up...

and same thing could very possibility happen with Fiesta...

wonder wat would happen if you're not allow to vend cash shop items... so the benefits doesnt be passed as gold/silver/coppers coz otherwise the money side of the economy is stuffed keke...

and for once.. i'm not objecting to cash shop coz i can afford it XD (and to bribe blah on my side... i'll buy you something too yeah yeah?)

According to Outspark, the cash shop items won't impact the game much.

Yet, this is coming from a company that states the following:

I can understand them wanting to make money. Thats no big deal. But a lot of them overprice their crap and not to mention some of the items have timers. If you're going to sell items to increase storage space and what not their should be no timer. I don't want to have to constantly buy something like that just for a little extra space. Besides, hundreds upon hundreds of people will be paying for their crap so whats the point in making a timer on certain items? To exploit us and take as much of our money away as possible? Yeah, I ain't buying into it.

Real life is unfair but why should our virtual lives be the same? Aren't we supposed to escape reality when playing these games or surfing the web? All they're doing is dragging us back into reality so they can earn as much money as possible from spoiled little brats.

That's life, how about you get paid $2000 once as your salary, and coz there's no timer on it, that's all u'll get.

People are continuously working for our game, and so i guess it's only fair that they would want to put a timer on. Or often, games give you a choice to pay more for an indefinite item, or less for a period of time. Who knows, maybe you dont need that extra inventory space for more than a month, so you can get a discount for it.

Unfortunately your fantasy is costing other people's reality. There's no complete escape.
