During the past CRWs, we haven't gotten any CSP CRW exclusives. In my opinion, this was overall a large part of the CRW experience. It felt like a nice..."summing up." A perfect way to end CRW.

With this year's CRW about to peek it's head from around the corner, I of course have my doubts that this feature will return. Am I the only one who thinks like this? I mean, am I truly the only one who cared about the CSP exclusives during CRW.

If it were to make it a return, having THREE CSP exclusives wouldn't even be necessary. (For all you collectors that don't want to spend too much CC.) I mean, even one or two would be absolutely perfect.

Anyone else agree with me on this?

Yes I totally agree! The past 2 CRWs I have sent in tickets about this but it never happened.

I always used to love how at the end they were released and kinda wrapped it up. Now all Egg Cave does is release the cave CRWs into the Cash Shop at the end. I miss the Cash Shop exclusive CRWs.

Oh, awesome! Someone else who agrees! Yeah, I've voiced my opinion on the blog and stuff a few times, but this is my first time making an actual forum about it.

I feel like it isn't CRW without the Cash Shop exclusives.. It used to kinda be a tradition but then they stopped doing it.

And usually the creatures are really cool. I still have my Clous❤️ Too bad I traded away my Arnmnae and Pixgog 😋

It did. It was the part that I looked forward to the most, actually.

Definitely. The Pixgog is my all-time favorite creature, and I've obtained 7 so far. 😋

I've had all of them except for the Macbot.. But then I traded them away and now I'm left with only my Clous which won't ever leave my cove.

I remember all the people that couldn't buy CC traded extras of their Cave CRWs for them... I'm hoping that this year they decide to do the CCs again.

@harrypotter123698

I know the feel. I traded my Clous egg away a while ago. Luckily, I just barely managed to get it back. Gotta be careful with trading...


Exactly. That's a common complaint. "It's not fair to the non-cc buyers. You guys already have the CSP monthlies."

Well, most people would trade theirs away for a few of the Cave Critters they couldn't manage to get. It's pretty win-win.

Thinking of opportunity to get all 7 CRWs -yes, but let's think of people who don't buy CC. 7 CSP creatures you can have for sure if you have CC. Let's think they'll be 200 CC each.1400 CC or 14mln EC for all. A lot I guess. If released they'll not be golden they'll be diamond precious. It can cause some amount of whining and miserable players. And some amount of quitting people "because everybody are soo greedy"But who cares?
I'm against this. Don't want to see this site sank in tears and evil giggles.

What...

Your post confuses me, I don't understand. They've done this exact thing before and noone was "miserable."

Plus, there's like 2-3 exclusives. The rest of the CRW creatures can be found in the cave.

For someone who never buys cc nor really remember crw, may I clarify a few things before giving my opinion?

CRW releases a creature exclusive to the cave for a certain day of a week. The -current CRW- only releases the creatures in the cave.

(By the way, are the availability of the CRW accumulative. For example, Day 1's creature is still available in Day 2? Or are they exclusively available for a certain day?)

And what you are asking is to still have the CRW available in the cave, but have two additional exclusive creatures that's only available in the CC shop?

I agree, and anyway, the more critters, the bigger the chance of something nice being released.

@kiryko
No need to be so cynical and angry. Nobody's forcing you to be on this site. And if people quit over something so simple, then maybe it's better for their own peace of mind to not be on here.

They've done it before and it wasn't a problem. Macbot, Doovoo, Arnmnae, Clous, and Pixgog are examples of the CC CRWs. The Doovoo and Macbot were in the Cash Shop for CRW 2010 and the Arnmnae, Clous and Pixgog were available for CRE 2011. They haven't had any other Cash Shop exclusive CRWs since 2011.

@harrypotter123698
Well, if you are suggesting having the 7 CRW and 2 exclusive, I don't really have a problem with it. (Actually, a pretty indifferent opinion either way).

For the people who don't buy cc and get upset about this, CC is really just a convenience rather than a restriction. They just have to work a little harder to get CC (creatures) than CC buyers. It's definitely not impossible to get CC (creatures).

Eh, I'm just on the fence here. I don't think that it's a problem, but at the same time, I don't have see a benefit in it too. However, I wouldn't be butt-hurt if this was taken into effect.

Yes, they are accumulative.

On Day 7, every creature released throughout the week can be found in the cave.

@dionaea

Precisely.

How much were the CRW CC critters? 500 or 200 CC? I'm thinking that maybe EggCave should drop the price to 100-300 CC (most likely 200) for these creatures if it occurs again.

I'd be happy to see it happen because I do like traditions and this sounds like a good idea. It's exactly like the cave monthlies with special CC exclusives so I don't see what's wrong with it.

They were 500 but the creatures are usually really nice so I don't mind spending 500 CC on them.

@harrypotter123698
Ahhh, even some CC purchasers may not be happy with that price because if they buy all the creatures of that month (plus any bonus creatures for 200 CC if there is any) then there would be 2,700 CC in a month.

Some would be happy with spending the extra amount but that's quite a bit. So maybe 200 CC a creature would be the preferred amount

They wouldn't have to buy every creature, just the ones they like. If they didn't like the CSP's of this month, they could just use that money to by a CRW CSP exclusive.

Deleted • 10 January 2015 at 6:30 PM

@despair
Although the idea's pretty nice, not everyone could afford to buy so many CSPs ... the CRWs is an event I like very much because ALL can partecipate, it's a great opportunity for not-CC buyers like me, and in my opinion, it should remain the way it is ... it's a relase of creatures in the cave, right? 😊
I can't understand why, in each single event, everything must be around CC and CSPs ... can't we enjoy a single event without CC things, that every single players, old users, new users, CC users and not-CC users can enjoy without worrying to buy/gain ECs to buy those extra CSPs?

You know, I get CSPs and freezed by feeding and gain ECs to trade for CC. I barely can save ECs, 'cause there are so many CC creatures relased (to make an example, recentrly we had the CC monthlies, Golosina, Qor, the Fife ...) that I have to spend every single ECs I gain. The point is ... I think there are ENOUGH CC creatures relased. Please, don't keep asking to make it harder for not-CC buyers ...

This is not a rant, though. The idea's pretty nice itself ... I just say that's CC's really pricey, expecially If we consider how many CC creatures are relased ... spending 5mil for 1 CSP and 2mil for a freeze ... at least, If that idea was accepted, please let those "CC exclusive" be 100CC each or something like a discount added. :/

@wererage

Again, you don't have to buy it if you don't want. You might just have to make sacrifices. There'd be enough hype with the 7 CRW that I think its justifiable to re-introduce the CRW CSP exclusives. CRW, at one time, was 7 days if cave creatures and then they'd introduce new CSPs at the end. But, I agree with your last sentence. A discount on the creatures would be really nice.

Deleted • 10 January 2015 at 6:45 PM

@despair
That's the point of it ... you might want to have that creature in your cove, and you can't, 'cause you don't buy CC. If you don't have enough ECs, you have to gain it and wait ... but If you wait too long, that creature will be retired, and the day after it retires, people will put them UFT for the double of the original price, because things are like that now. :/

And yeah, with a little discount it would be more nice for each parts. 😊 CC users would have the opportunity of buying nice new creatures without spending too much, and ECs users would have more opportunities in making / gaining the ECs needed for one as well. So, I think I partially agree with your idea. 😊

Okay I've been reading and I think some people might be confused. The idea isn't for a just CC CRW week with 7 new CC creatures. This topic is suggesting that Egg Cave bring back releasing new CRW Cash Shop exclusives. Some examples of CRW CC creatures are the Doovoo, Macbot, Clous, Arnmnae, and Pixgog. Each year there was usually 1-3 released in the Cash Shop at the end of CRW up until 2012's CRW. Since the 2012 CRW we haven't had any CRW CC exclusive eggs, which is why we have this topic. Just wanted to clarify for anyone who is/may be confused. 😊


EDIT//: And also to anyone who's saying it's unfair for non-CC buyers, again you could easily trade the Cave CRWs for the CC CRWs because of the hype that week. It's not that hard/time consuming.

And also, some people seem to forget that there's CC monthlies each month. Why don't people write comments saying those are unfair? What's the big deal if there was just 1-2 more CC eggs that CC buyers could buy and non-CC buyers could trade for? I don't see a problem with that. After all, without CC the site wouldn't be able to pay the bills and Egg Cave wouldn't be around.

What @harrypotter123698 said.

Deleted • 10 January 2015 at 8:47 PM

I would like to see a CSP exclusive CRW too. It would definitely give the site more revenue, especially if the creatures are only available for 1 day each. I think that's how it was for the macbot and doovoo, which is why they're so valuable now, right?

Indeed.~ I'm not sure about if it was just one day, but I know it definitely wasn't available for very long.

They were actually available for two days.

Gonna put my two cents in, I wish this did happen when I was a member. But I joined in 2012, so I have never gotten to experience this.

I think it'd be very nice to get this back again.
