    See I dont play those 2 games :p as they look dumb as hell IMO.

    Im not demanding anything for 1.


    Booster bundles are only bought because people seek 1 thing the new aura not the reskinned aura's, not the replays or TRK or repair bots, but the new aura. Therefor it makes it a big *** gamble idc how you try to justify it.

    So if someone spent more than that, saaaaay $500+ and DID get the aura, you think that person would be happy to see it show up in the marketplace? Again this would be "a kind gesture" (as the devs put it) to players who have it.

    I vote no. Exclusive means exclusive. I do want the OG nimbus. I love that thing to death, but I don't want to see it in the marketplace.. at all.. ever. Just because I want something, doesn't mean I'm entitled to it. I was around when the boxes were out. I chose not to purchase one. I chose not to forage through the broker looking for a decent priced one.
    Had I spent money on the boxes and still not gotten it to drop... I would feel the same way. You can't throw a limited time item into the game, make it a gamble to get, then hand them out like candy.
    I DON'T HAVE THE 2ND ANNIVERSARY CAKE TRINKET, PLEASE PUT IN MARKETPLACE BECAUSE IM SAD

    No.. Just no. Stop making these threads.

    Ye, so as pissed as I am for not getting the smoke OG aura, you think people who spent hundreds in real or millions of ingame cash to get one will be happy?

    I had it tracked and saw the same arguments were happening. Exclusive means exclusive, end of story. Doesn't matter if they are bad practises or good practises, the fact of the matter is they were deemed exclusive and will remain that way. Will all the "ultra rare" auras from future BBs be exclusive? Maybe, maybe not. That is something that can change, but all the ones that have already cannot change without major backlash and I don't see that ever happening.

    Because they already said that the OG auras were specific to that Booster Bundle. Yeah sure, I'd like them to release those auras again so I can load up the rest of my toons with those auras, but its not gonna happen.

    I rather that they reelease the og auras than that we have to pay Hundred of millions over it just so the greedy peoples can fill up their wallets :( The broker prices ar Totaly broken when it comes to auras.

    Lol. No wonder this is 9 pages long.

    You'redoing this for what players? The ones that didn't get what they want and have hiss fits?

    Releasing what is supposed to be exclusive hurts the integrity of the game as well as the Devs themselves.

    Shame on you for making this thread. You know better.

    lol everyone wants to look like that "cool person" with the OG Plasmic, OG Nimbus and OG Smoke :rolleyes:
    Again, stop crying and settle for the aura pack.
    Only the players with resources, drive and sadly, luck deserve to get those "cool auras"
    Beggars can't be choosers and for those that are hiding behind the excuse "ohh lets do this for the community"
    Please sit down.

    It's not "because". It's due to them being exclusive in the first place.

    Now, I do not agree with the Booster Lotto system. No one like that in any MMO, yet Devs continue to use these tactics.

    Reversing an exclusive situation would do far more harm than good.

    Having prizes simply for just "being there" at the time is a very good thing. It's a point of pride to those that were able to achieve said prizes. Though I'd much rather see a more equal ability to obtain these things.

    And if you've read the entire thread it is apparently more important to maintain "exclusive" items like this for pride, code of honour, "morality" and simply slapping the word "exclusive" on an item than it is to share the enjoyment of these items. It is more important, apparently, to main capitalism on certain items then to give players more reason to keep playing and keep supporting the game. It is more important to conjure a nation size **** storm then it is to allow for additional sales and additional happiness from other players.

    Saying something is "exclusive" just because it is exclusive is not a reason. It is an excuse to not allow everyone the enjoyment of certain items "just because" they wanted to do that. Exclusivity for the pure sake of exclusivity should never be a reason to maintain exclusivity.

    Especially in a massive group based game like DCUO it shouldn't be more important to maintain exclusive clubs than it is to get as many players involved and enjoying the game. Like I said I'd much rather allow everyone the enjoyment of cool and awesome items than to hoard them for myself and am pretty disappointed (and rather angry) that others would much rather maintain their own personal "pride" then to share an item that they have reason to feel prideful about. It is not a very good trait to have but hey this is our community!

    The Bad guy laughs at your friends tears. That cupcake stopped playing this great game because he could not get an aura? Well tell him The People say with the money he saved by leaving he can buy all the mascara he wants.

    You poor guy.
    I'm sorry, but I find it highly unlikely it would ever happen, because many of the players would raise hell if the Devs even suggested it. As you've seen from the posts leading up to this, Most of the people who've already gotten those rare items are dead-set against anyone else having them. I'm not one of those people. I've got some of those ultra-rares, and don't care who else has them, if it's going to help those people complete their costumes. I even gave away a few cosmic materials to leaguemates to help them with their styles. (Still have over 50 various glimmerings taking up space, but NO, I don't have any cosmic materials or solar auras left, sorry :)). -but for some reason a lot of the players in this game are making Larfleeze their mentor, and are even threatening to quit the game if they can't be like him.
    If something like your suggestion ever made it to play, people would be rioting in the streets. :(

    I dont think exclusive has anything to do with people being greedy. If the dev team deems something exclusive to a BB or being sold for a limited time then that is what it is. I see his quote, the 1 u quoted, saying i dont understand the problem here with the word exclusive. I think that has been the whole problem in this thread. Clearly some people dont understand what that word means.

    If a mattress store does an exclusive sale for presidents day, we have all seen those :p, and a person then goes into the store after the sale is over they cant then get the sale price. The sale was exclusive to that day or weekend. In fact all sales work that way. Limited time offers for a short period of time. Sometimes they do put items on sale in that period that have never been on sale before and wont ever be on sale again. Im not talking about u when i say this either, i find it very strange that people cannot understand the concept of something being exclusive. Its weird. If someone really wanted to they could list so many example of exclusive items in the real world and other games. The concept has been used so many times by so many different companies for a long time now.

    Also idc at all if other people have a super rare aura. For me its not about others not being able to get them or me not wanting people to have them. That means nothing to me. If u were around when the BB came out and got 1 great. Some are still on the broker atm too and can be bought for a high price. If i cant have the batman mask from the hack because i wasnt playing then and that mask is exclusive to that time then others who werent around for certain BBs shouldnt be able to just buy those auras off the MP. At least they have the option to buy 1 off the broker if its up there. I have no option to get the batman hack mask. Yea there is a $20 cowl on the MP. Imo the hack 1 is better looking and is the 1 i would want. But i understand it wont ever happen and im cool with that.
