Preorders

Namenkooo

I remember the old preorders that we had an option to receive permanent weapons, howeve, the recent SHOVEL OB & TRINITY, and the current AK OB preorder we only get temporary weapons...
I was hoping CFNA would release more permanant NOBLE GOLD series, like the AXE BEAST preorder we got perm AK NG.
Does SmileGate decide what we get out of our preorders or Z8 has the full control???

We only got the ak nobel for compensation.

(I was hoping for a special perm item for those who own all the OB weapons hehe)

Why was there a compensation?

BUT, M4 PREDATOR had a bundle with another VIP weapon to get a permanent golden fist though.

I know that in the future, we will get the VIP characters' kick fixed so there will be some compensation as well, but that will be quite sometime from now.

People were unsatisfied that the axe did 80 dmg on the legs. Complains led to a compensation.

I would love to see perm items with preorders just like the predator bundle.

I'd love to see a perm item when bundling extra VIPs to your pre-order like they did with the Golden Fists. Or even dishing out bonus crates when pre-ordering VIPs like they did on the last pre-order, so that you at least have a chance at winning something permanent. The weapons you have a choice of 2 of that are only 30 days on this one are nice and all...but it seems like the extras from the pre-order this time around are lacking compared to the last few times.

As for who has control over what they get to dish out on pre-orders and what not...that's a good question.

We like to try new things and bring back successful things with these pre-sales. That being said, we're taking a more community-based approach lately, and if we see enough feedback in the suggestions forums about which sales you liked/disliked that might have an influence on things in the future

Release the ak noble beast in a pre order it doesn't have to be exclusive since every axe beast owner during that period got it. This is the only time I will spend more money on this game because it's not worth it anymore.

I like this Community Approach. As we had Feedback about 40 ribbon Shovel becoming Permanent, Kick Vote System, New Coupon System and Coupon Weapon change soon, Win/Loss and Honour Rest and Possible Honour Ribbon appeal to those lost it via Xtrap errorr "not Hacking". These steps have been positive and we look forward to more community based options such as;

*Event Feedbacks, Community Event choice types
*Possibly EP feedback of Permanent weapon sold using EP currency such as we had BP mall but ofc not same weapon.300k to 500k EP depending on type of weapon.
*Ping Restrictions
*Daily Mission Reward change from 500 GP to something worth doing i.e random crate
*Dog Tags - Need to change more often maybe every 3 - 6 months
*Report System change!- How reports are organised Priority and viewed and feedback all reports.

Well, from what I heard, these Noble Gold Guns were supposed to be Tourney Exclusive in the first place, so they already were insanely generous to give it out as compensation for those who were unsatisfied with the Axe Beast.

So practically, I view the odds of Noble Gold Weaponry being given away through even easier means like VIP Pre-orders as pretty slim.

So Z8 makes the decision on what get with our preorder bonuses and not SmileGate right?

In other versions, yes. In our version we had the M4A1 G-Tiger and the Golden Katana listed as tournament exclusives but were later given out in the black friday sale, in china you can get the M4 Tiger in the coupon exchange for 90 days so every version has their own set of weapons that are tournament exclusive. The M4A1 noble beast however, should stay exclusive but the AK lost it's chance since it was given out to tons of players so it wouldn't be that big of a hassle to give it out in a pre-order.

Smilegate does. Z8 suggests the worthy suggestions from here to them and they consider if they want it to happen or not. In some areas like creating events it's up to GMs I think.

When are you going to release D.E el Dorado presale?
