I totally support the idea for a re-release, I like the idea of quests or events and such, adds a little fun and challenge to it😊

I've spent quite a decent amount on getting my cove, and I don't even have any really rare creatures, but I wouldn't mind my creatures decreasing in value, I paid what...

@ami_utsukushii

ya know something that isn't discussed much, that I see at least, is those retired travels :wink: ... but seriously

I mean why not consider a re-release for them as well ? ...

I've payed CC for retired travels, but wouldn't mind them becoming available again too ... within even...

@veritaspunk
I do too, I wish a poll had been added to this. And that's kinda true, honestly I think there should've been a vote, over a week or two, letting people have time to get their opinions in. Its not too late to happen.

veritaspunk • 29 July 2015 at 6:38 PM

@despair

I think the issue is the creator[s] let the player have too much say so in the economy and that didn't allow for a "fixed economy" so at this point pandoras box has long been opened ... the problem was this was let to drag on too long


.. but I'd like to see some hard data on...

@veritaspunk

For me, putting it off is a middle-ground. In the middle of scrapping the idea completely.

netherling • 29 July 2015 at 6:30 PM

@despair
Its been 6 years, it has changed a little more. And its not that the desire is bigger than the credibility, its that when the majority wants something, you find a way to make them happy but also a way that keeps the minority happy too.

veritaspunk • 29 July 2015 at 6:28 PM

@despair postponement is not a middle ground .. it's keeping status quo ...

despair • 29 July 2015 at 6:26 PM

@ami_utsukushii

I do understand that times change, which is why I feel it'd be at least a little better if some sort of middle-ground could be found. Which is why I suggested that this probably needs to be postponed and re-discussed later when the general opinion has changed a bit more.

netherling • 29 July 2015 at 6:20 PM

@despair

Yes you all keep saying that, but one point you won't be able to because the times will change. That special thrill goes away once you realize what you just spent. And if so many people are going after this certain creature, the chance of you getting it is smaller. I think the fiasco was a...

@veritaspunk

The one Doovoo and Macbot thing doesn't sound too bad imo. I think it could work, although I still don't completely agree.

@scorch_cloud222

Value isn't the sole thing we're not agreeing with. The Doovoo egg being worth $800 is a guess of it's worth. They're not in circulation...

maleficent • 29 July 2015 at 6:13 PM

Say this every single time.....

What people pay for their creatures is not Egg Cave's responsibilty. That is between you and the other person. Never, ever trade more then you are willing to give without complaining. Every site I play on re-release. It's fundamental to keep older players happy and n...

scorch_cloud222 • 29 July 2015 at 6:11 PM

With everyone arguing, I think we are losing sight of the facts here. People are upset because values will decrease. Does anyone honestly think that a Doovoo egg is worth $800? That is more money than I pay in rent. The Doovoo was $5 when it came out. That is a ridiculous inflation in price. Re-rele...

veritaspunk • 29 July 2015 at 6:11 PM

@despair

... What if say 1 Macbot and/or Doovoo was up for grabs to the winner of the Halloween event this year ? That's an opportunity, based on dedication ..,

Ian could open up the Oasis to ALL creatures not just the endangered one ... there's an opportunity for all players

What if we compro...

despair • 29 July 2015 at 6:06 PM

@ami_utsukushii

Before the Christmas fiasco, they weren't nearly as avid with the "This is retired forever." It was after the extremely negative response that it generated. Ian then said that re-releases would not be happening again. He had good intentions, but it did not work. Ever...

netherling • 29 July 2015 at 5:59 PM

@despair
Yeah xD but whatever percentage would fit.

But with every decision ever made, there's always a percentage of people made happy and a percentage made unhappy. And a re-release has happened before so the "keep their word" thing cant really be used cause its already happened ya know...

despair • 29 July 2015 at 5:51 PM

@ami_utsukushii

Releasing in moderation is going to prove to be a rather difficult task. If you had a 45% chance to get a Goblar, you'd have an amazing chance at getting a Goblar. xD I think I know what you meant, though.

For each creature released in moderation they're going to have to go throu...

netherling • 29 July 2015 at 5:42 PM

@despair
That's why we've been saying it needs to be done in moderation. Like, for example, if Spookcats and Goblars came back out for this Halloween. Since Goblar's were cave creatures at first, they'd be in the cave all October but there's be a 45% chance they'd be found. It would be possible to f...

@iceiceice

I believe that once this re-releasing stuff happens, it's not going to stop for a while. Most if not all will probably be re-released.

Certain amount of time means nothing. People can find a way to get creatures in bulk even if released for only a day or two. Especially if you can buy...

iceiceice • 29 July 2015 at 5:39 PM

Not directed to anyone, but I just want to point out that the rerelease are most likely limited. He will most likely only release ### much and/or there will be a time limit for you to get the creatures.

The oasis gives you unlimited attempts, there is no limit.

Also, straying, but serious questi...

rosaline_kaye • 29 July 2015 at 5:30 PM

I'd still like an official creature value list, though. That'll hopefully make the prices of things reasonable.

veritaspunk • 29 July 2015 at 5:26 PM

@despair

That's the case with such a wild west structure, greed will always win out ... making it about a persons wealth rather than skill/game play ... if you want a truly encompassing experience ...



despair • 29 July 2015 at 5:26 PM

@rosaline_kaye

As would I. Hopefully he'll stick by Eggcave's word. xP

rosaline_kaye • 29 July 2015 at 5:23 PM

I'd like to hear what Ian thinks.

Deleted • 29 July 2015 at 5:13 PM

@ami_utsukushii
Macbot(s) and Doovoo(s) will be having a very low value once they are re-released and it will be a matter of years till their value builds up again.

Onnys and Tines, on the other hand, are very appealing and they will still hold a "base value" even after the re-release (if...

despair • 29 July 2015 at 5:09 PM

@veritaspunk

I don't believe this at all. Foos and Florns from 2009 used to be worth a tad bit more than the re-release ones, but now they're all worth the same.

veritaspunk • 29 July 2015 at 5:07 PM

As I approach on a year with this site I envision my participation with egg cave as week to week or month to month with short term vision because of my personal situations I can not really consider that I'll still be on egg cave next year much less 3-4 years ...

I realize I may be an outlier ......

despair • 29 July 2015 at 5:07 PM

@ami_utsukushii

I definitely see where you're coming from, but such a large amount of change could do harm just as well as it could do good. You never know, while unlikely, a few people could just buy a hundred Onny and then they're being traded like Yeeps in UFA lots. (exaggerating, but you get...

lykhaos117 • 29 July 2015 at 5:06 PM

@bluewolf

I like your idea of having new super rare creatures. Regardless of whether there's a rerelease, I believe this should be considered. 😊

@iceiceice

I agree with you. To be honest, I'm more interested in people's reasoning than the outcome of the topic itself. I think that this is a good...

netherling • 29 July 2015 at 5:02 PM

@despair
I know, I know. I'm just trying to say that a re-release wont do a tremendous amount of permanent damage. It would change a lot but it could be for the good.

despair • 29 July 2015 at 4:58 PM

@bluewolf

Very true.

@ami_utsukushii

At the moment, they might not be rare but they'll get up there. Cetopias weren't "rare" until a good while after they were released.

@wizard

The value isn't the sole thing that I'm concerned about, even though admittedly it does play a part....
