Are kind of ugly, don't you think? I was expecting something better... Well, my expectations anyways :P

What do you guys think of it? Does it also dissapoint you too? Or do you think it looks alright?

ROFL xDD
Well, I can't spend any money on CS items, so no new hairstyle for me >___<"
I don't really think they're that bad. Some of them are okay, and some of them not so okay, and none are fabulous for me, but I won't say that they suck xDD
Well, blue for me. I don't mind ><

Yeah, all the default faces are much better D: But someone whose not so much into anime might like them.

Yeah.

They look ok I guess, but we haven't seen all of them yet, have we? They probably have some nice surprises for us.

Today I got an e-mail from Outspark about the new stuff as i'm sure you all did as well. Guess you guys were right, in order to customize your face, hair, etc. you need to pay for it. Why am I not surprised? Fiesta is worse than FlyFF now. At least in FlyFF you could spend in-game currency to change your hair/face.

hmm but the things from Flyff are like 10x more expensive!!

The CS items? Yeah, they're more expensive but they're all permanent. Something Fiesta's CS items aren't. I knew this was going to happen though. Maybe i'm psychic? O:

yeah but that means u gotta play for 10+ months to make it worth buying...

i guess its worth it for some people... =/

lmfao @ this game. Paying to not look like 99% of the rest of the game? LAWL.

Okay, outspark needs some hefty cash shop advice, and here it is.

Monthly items are nice and all, but throw in an option to buy a permanent version.

Get rid of statted cash shop costumes.
These should be event only. Trust me - people will buy costumes from cash shops even if they lack stats. People will also buy more permanent things that make more money, thus bringing in more money. Honestly, stat-altering items are not the way to go. It makes the game very unbalanced for players who cannot afford them, especially since they have no way to buy them in-game from other players, which brings me to my next point...

Let cash shop items be sellable/transferable (except enhancing crap)

I say no to enhancing items, because its these that usually ANNIHLATE economy (like what spros did in flyff) this way, people can store their purchased items and transfer or give as gifts, or sell to other players, which stimulates a gently moving economy. honestly, can't even transfer to storage? What kind of CRAP marketing ploy is that?

Take the damn default hairs out of cash shop and put in the damn npc that's supposed to be there, and keep the cash shop hairs in, retards!
I've seen the damn npc in the asian versions, we have a thread about it here, we're not fucking stupid.

Be honest, plz kthx.
Don't tell people "MASSIVE update with 50+ cash shop items, weapons, etc etc etc" and give us like 2 costumes and some stat items. Dumb asses. This shows the players that you're not very trust-worthy if you don't at least say "We didn't put these in for this reason, etc etc". Its kind of unpleasant about a company to not be reliable. :B

A good example of a cash shop would probably be Maple Story. Crappy game, but their cash shop (when I played at least) was pretty decent. Mostly costumes or special hair or skin coupons, pets, things like that. Only real game-play altering items I remember seeing were like..a ring thing that made you lose no exp when you died, a restat thing, or scrolls that let you warp places. /cutwrists

I am just really appalled at how this game is ran. >_< I'm wondering wtf is going on over there D: Seems like outspark desperately needs to hire more scripters or like..work on one game at a time. Yeesh.
