As a general rule I am all for a CONTROLLED re-release of retired creatures at greater values (EC or CC) and limited times (a week/2 for each at maximum).

I would also be in favour of limiting the amount a single user can purchase (say maximum of 2 or 3) - this will limit the "overflow" i...

@Ian,

Hi,

Poor Ian,

I'll give you the point of view of "one" (just mine^^) newbie...

In every game when you arrived, they have many things you can't anymore found...(like in the life^^) it's understandable, but not all the past things too.

Same as you love for example the roaring tw...

"Oldies like Onny, Tie and Doovoo shouldn't be rereleased." That doesn't make sense for me. If not all creatures are going to be rereleased, it should be random, I don't think picking the creatures we want or don't would be the point. There'll be those who doesn't want Macbot being rerelea...

a dream came true if pets are getting re-releast 😃

Thank you very much Ian for replying to all our doubts and ideas. As for me, I think I've seen and read enough, at least for now.

The point of this topic wasn't to decide If re-relases are to be done, but to hear out all the users' ideas, pros and contros, and we did that. So, I'll wait pati...

emo_pattys • 4 August 2015 at 2:52 AM

I totally agree with the idea of rerelease. The prices of the creatures are too inflated and I believe the only way to fix this problem is promoting some kind of rerelease.

Besides that, I'd love to see more people getting their dream creatures. I've seen many new players (and some older players...

@Ian
Oh my gosh I JUST found this. *jumps up and down with excitement* I would love it if creatures were re-released! I didn't join until 2013 and took a huge break that lasted almost a year (from sometime in 2014 until recently). I think it would be cool if older creatures were re-released first,...

@Ian

I'm going to say my final piece before I'm gone as well.

I believe that, at the very least, Ian should stick to what he said earlier. For the CSP creatures, I feel we should leave those as retired at the very least. It was alluring to purchase something that was going to be gone forever, and...

@metaphor
That's what I interpreted it as too, but he's still trying to figure out a way to make 'them' accessible.

netherling • 3 August 2015 at 8:08 PM

There's hope for everything now. Well, most things. I know things will be figured out in a way that makes everyone content at the least ^-^ I'm just happy it was all finally addressed 😋

metaphor • 3 August 2015 at 7:55 PM

Perhaps I misread something, but I don't think he said that old creatures weren't going to be re-released, just that he was no longer going to promise any creature will retire forever.

But maybe I overlooked something. That's possible. 😊

scorch_cloud222 • 3 August 2015 at 7:47 PM

I'm beyond glad to know that you've considered our comments. I expect that the EggCave team will come up with a solution that is fair and sustainable in the long run. 😊

rosaline_kaye • 3 August 2015 at 7:41 PM

Thanks Ian for the response.

I'm glad that the oldies are probably not going to be re-released (???), but having newer ones re-released is completely fine with me. It seems fair to newer users.

Thank you for listening 😊

elf • 3 August 2015 at 7:33 PM

I think every single creature should have a *chance* at being re-released/obtained no matter how small, of course we're still going to respect their values, but releasing a few definitely won't hurt. Such as when Eggcave gave away a Doovoo Egg for a certain amount of creature views, nobody thought t...

promise • 3 August 2015 at 7:32 PM

Thank you for hearing us all out and taking the time to reply and consider all of our suggestions! I love some of the ideas that have been said and I know you can work out a great way to do it! ^^


I also have a few ideas about how it could be done if you happen to make another topic for suggestion...

dawnfur • 3 August 2015 at 7:18 PM

I don't think this is what Ian had in mind when he reopened the comments, maybe we can realize that and not argue over the things he probably closed it for in the first place?

Not trying to be rude, i just don't think it's a good idea. .-.

veritaspunk • 3 August 2015 at 7:17 PM

@bluewolf

You're so superior with your discretionary skills aren't you ?


Anyway apparently it's a law or common fact that I failed to realize - that the big three creatures don't include the Macbot ? .. no ? ..

veritaspunk • 3 August 2015 at 7:03 PM

@bluewolf

What are you exactly inferring ? Attention to details is a process that's responsible in any work, concept. ... "nitpicking" .. I don't think that term applies to this fundamental subject matter by anyone ...

veritaspunk • 3 August 2015 at 6:48 PM

@bluewolf

Oh kewl, The Macbot still has a chance :-P

okami • 3 August 2015 at 6:39 PM

From that it sounds like the rerelease of creatures is inevitable, so I'll just say this. I feel like some creatures should never be rereleased. At least keep some that are 'shiny species' as it's been put. Like these big 3- the Tine, Doovoo, and Onny. Don't rerelease them and maybe a dozen o...

veritaspunk • 3 August 2015 at 6:29 PM

I'm more optimistic about the long term at egg cave, hopefully I can be a part of it. It isn't just the eggs that take stages to fully evolve :-P

despair • 3 August 2015 at 6:15 PM

Interesting response. I'm kind of sleepy so some of that didn't make sense lol.

Ian • 3 August 2015 at 6:03 PM

Friends,

Thanks for your continued feedback regarding the idea of rereleases. While I could go through the list of questions that have been asked since my original response, I don't think that answering them with the finer details of what rereleases would like would really appease either side.

Sem...

netherling • 3 August 2015 at 10:21 AM

@fakeworld @leonx

Yeah I heard it was because they didn't have the forums yet so they all talked together on the blogs.

But I said a while back that re releases would've brought more people to the site, and more people buying CSPs would bring in more money and such to help out the site. Though...

elf • 3 August 2015 at 10:17 AM

@fakeworld
I kinda like where the rerelease thing is going as well ^^ And oh, didn't know that last part 😋

fakeworld • 3 August 2015 at 10:16 AM

@leonx I agree in a way. Everything may be fun on our end, and Ian's sometimes, but for him, it's still a business that has to be ranned efficiently, and he's been doing a great job. People don't think about it in that way. The wrong choice could result in a long trend of failure. I like where this...

elf • 3 August 2015 at 9:24 AM

Overall though, Ian has to do what is best for the site, not just including existing members, but taking into account new members that join. I don't see much wrong with creatures being re-released if it's done responsibly. New members that come on usually find it pretty hard to get creatures they li...

@Orderedchaos
Dont know if it was me too but I'm sorry >.<

I'm on like a debate team at school lol so I can get....super strongly opinionated. And a little heated. So if I upset anyone, sorries. I have a slight anger issue at times and like Despair said, it's hard to tell a tone onlin...

despair • 2 August 2015 at 11:29 PM

First off, I woud like to say that if I have offended anyone with something I said, I apologize. I have tryed to be careful with my words and have only expressed my views on things. I haven't lost my temper or anything, but online it can be hard to tell the tone of a comment. Something could have...

Orderedchaos • 2 August 2015 at 11:15 PM

Ok, both sides need to drop this now before it goes any further. I have deleted the posts that caused this strife and any further rudeness by anyone will result in official actions taken.
