Updates



October 17, 2011 - Credit Shop Special

Updated Credit Shop

 

  

We have finally reached a compromise regarding the retired Kioka, Liyure, and Omni Creatu Eggs. As of now, purchasing credits in the Credit Shop (only with real money) will result in 3 tiers of bonus rewards. You will receive the bonus in addition to the credits you have purchased. 

Buying 300 credits and more will result in a 50% chance of receiving 1 random retired CS egg.

Buying 500 credits and more will result in a guarantee of 1 random retired CS egg.

Buying 1,000 credits and more will result in a guarantee of 1 of each retired CS egg.   

Please be aware that this was thoroughly discussed in the member forums and was the most fair compromise we could agree to.

Will this offer still be around at Christmas?
Wolf - October 22, 2011
Ah nevermind xD I just read Mirror's last post. ^^ hopefully it won't end too soon c8
Bowie - October 21, 2011
I really wish my mom and dad will let me buy credits. I love the Retired ones.
Wolf - October 21, 2011
Mirrors: 'Limited' as in how long? Please rmail me ^^
GG - October 20, 2011
=/ This stinks for us that can't buy credits and such. But yay for those of you who can.
Outsane - October 20, 2011
I believe this isn't as much of a "money-grubbing" tactic as it is for a compromise to the users who want these eggs back and Patrick's efforts to maintain their rarity. Very few users will willingly offer up $50 to buy credits for these eggs, which will maintain the rarity of the eggs somewhat and will make some users happy that they have the chance to get their long-beloved creatu while in the process, help fuel the website to keep it up and running. You can always buy the eggs from those users who bought them with real money. This isn't the only way to get them.
Kayori - October 20, 2011
Good, maybe this will help stop people from asking me to sell them my Liyure.
Suede - October 19, 2011
I think its a nice holiday treat both for the site and the pla[injection]yers. thanks Pat and staff. ~best of luck everyone~ *Pokes site.....come on razz it up a bit around here, add loads of fun new things to do for the holidays. off to kick some varmit butt on facebook.
Riot - October 19, 2011
I think that as long as the eggs don't drop majorly, I don't think those who have eggs should be worried about sale prices. This is good for those of us who haven't been here forever and didn't get to buy the Kioka/Liyure/Omni eggs when they were available, too.
Zayn - October 19, 2011
I agree, Melince - even though I'm desperate for some of these eggers. xD; I'm sorta sick of Res trying to push us into buying credits, just so we can get the things we really want. And I thought these eggs were meant to be retired? Bringing them back is kinda defeating the purpose. xD
Melince - October 19, 2011
Sounds like another money-grubbing tactic. 50 bucks for a /100% guarantee/ to some measly pixels? :I May people here actually be smart and spend their money on something more useful.
Lilith - October 19, 2011
Mendini: I've been buying eggs before this announcement for 80-120M each, and those prices have not changed one bit after the announcement. I actually paid 10M MORE for a retired egg after the update than I did two weeks prior. =)
Zayn - October 19, 2011

Mendini - October 19, 2011
Well just another reason not to sell the eggs I already have. Lame.
Dragontearz - October 18, 2011
Good idea. :)
Kabby - October 18, 2011
Ok thank you! Be buying credits soon then :P
maverick - October 18, 2011
I've never been so glad to already have one of each. It's a great idea, but...$50 of real money so you're sure to get an egg? That's a bill to be paid, or lunch for a week. No way, man.
Lilith - October 18, 2011
There is no time set in stone that this will end - it depends on the amount sold, and any effects of bringing values down on the market. The deal will be pulled if there is a negative effect shown. =)
Clouding - October 18, 2011
Hmm, I guess this will work.
Dragon393 - October 18, 2011
Woohoo! I never/can't buy credits but I am extremely happy with this compromise, it means these awesome creatu will never become extinct for some one who didn't have an account from ages ago :D
Ghosty - October 18, 2011
I hope this lasts long enough for me to save from at least 4 checks...cause $25 is way easier to get away with over $100. So, would you be able to tell me if this promotion will last that long or is the ending undecided?
prinxess - October 18, 2011
I don't think have this offer permanently would flood the market... tons of /retired/CS creatu are -- inevitable -- going to die and be lost on inactive/banned accounts. tl;dr I can't buy my own credits yet, and I don't want this amazing offer to disappear.
Blooper - October 18, 2011
I could never buy credits. But, oh, I've always only ever wanted a Liyure!
Foo - October 18, 2011
Aww yeeaahhh. B]
Kabby - October 18, 2011
Yeah, how long will it be for? I'm really tempted to buy more credits ^_^
RyuHana - October 18, 2011
How long will this be going on for???
Lilith - October 18, 2011
It is in fact a limited-time offer. If it were not, it would end up disrupting the value of these creatu. =)
Ikuto - October 18, 2011
Wait...is it, or is it not a limited time offer? Broken stated that it was a limited time offer, but then Gelgarin stated that it is not.
Boonys - October 18, 2011
They're back! :D *runs around grabbing liyure eggs*
Juke - October 18, 2011
;3; I wish I had a father who'd buy credits for me. XD Oh, oh well. Maybe now I can afford them at some point. ;w; But it's so nice of you guys to put them back in. <333
Zen - October 18, 2011
:D i think this is great! but do you, for example, have to buy 300 credits at once to get the deal? or can you split the costs (pay 100 every day) until you have enough? hope that made sense :)
Midna - October 18, 2011
I wonder how much 1,000 credits cost...
Wolf - October 18, 2011
Wow! This is the icing on top of the cake for me- I'm getting 3000 credits on my birthday in November <3
Shinrai - October 18, 2011
AWESOME!!!!!
SilentSteps2709 - October 18, 2011
*runs off to credit shop*
MidnightRainbows - October 18, 2011
Darn, I was thinking it would be a limited time offer. Guess it's time to loan some money from my parents! P: Thanks for answering my question, 14bm.<3
Gelgarin - October 18, 2011
Except it won't be a limited time offer.
Traitor - October 18, 2011
Kioka and Omni eggs available again.. ? Seems kinda lame to me, especially after Pat said those wouldn't be available again.
Lilith - October 17, 2011
"As of now, purchasing credits in the Credit Shop (only with real money)..." Using tokens bought from a user shop will not give the bonus, no. This will be a limited-time offer, and staff will be keeping an eye on the market to caution against the values of these pets and pet eggs dropping significantly. Also, it doesn't matter which country you are in - Canadians can buy credits with Paypal, money order, or check as well as anyone. You don't need a paypal account to order them, either - if you need more info, check out the Support forum for the stickied post "How to Purchase Credits". =)
Winterlove - October 17, 2011
Amazing and creative idea. ^^ And it still keeps the rarity of the creatu as rare and infrequent as it should be. Thanks Staff! :D Nice compromise!
Riot - October 17, 2011
I think this is great, it gives newer users a chance that they didn't have before! I do think that it would upset some users who bought the eggs for 150 Mil+ or so because they thought there would never be any more, but if the community agreed, then perhaps it isn't that many. I am very ecstatic about this because it is giving me a much higher chance of obtaining my dream pet <3! I am curious if this is a limited time offer or not.
GinaBambina - October 17, 2011
What if you buy tokens from usr shops and exchange them for credits? doesthat still work??
kittenkid1 - October 17, 2011
Cool! Too bad i would be grounded for life if i bought 1000 credits lolz
Oakwind - October 17, 2011
Wow, this is amazing!
MidnightRainbows - October 17, 2011
One question, is this going to be a forever thing? Or is it only going to last a while? If so how long will it last? It might take me a long time to get the amount of money i need..
Yaizhbeen - October 17, 2011
Riyo, it was discussed here: http://www.rescreatu.com/forum/cat/general/general/bringing-back-the-retired-cs-039-ers-read-first-post/~page/1/
LaCortoriReturn - October 17, 2011
Pat, best. idea. EVER!!!
Uwibami - October 17, 2011
Love it.
Pyrosong - October 17, 2011
Sounds fair to me. They were retired, and now they are very hard to get. 30$ for just a 50% chance of getting one, and it might not even be the one you want. 50$ and you get one, but it still might not be the one you want. 100$ and you get all three. Sounds like a great way to bring back them, while still keeping them rare, and supporting the site.
Witchy - October 17, 2011
I'm both happy and not happy about this. :c
Yoshi - October 17, 2011
Awesome. :D
JessiKorpse - October 17, 2011
Welllll, I'm happy Friday is payday. :) only... It's a bummer $30 only gets you a %50 chance of getting one.. That's a lot of money for a game of "chance".
BowEcho - October 17, 2011
WOO Kioka egg! Thanks for fixing the bug, Patrick~
FluzzMe - October 17, 2011
AWSOME! Now I might be able to get a kioka one day! WHOOHOO! I luv ya staff!
dogpaw49 - October 17, 2011
what about if you are in Canada?
Shao - October 17, 2011
Yessss! *runs around happily* thank you all <33
Soulyter - October 17, 2011
I guess I can live with this.
Riyo - October 17, 2011
"Please be aware that this was thoroughly discussed in the member forums" ... um, can you point us to where this was discussed? I never heard anything about this.
BowEcho - October 17, 2011
Is there a waiting time on the guaranteed CS egg? If I read it right I should have gotten one randomly, but I don't see it yet.
Patrick - October 17, 2011
BowEcho, you should receive an alert about your CS eggs once your payment has gone through. If you have not, Rmail me.
Patrick - October 17, 2011
Paypal is fine...the offer is only not valid with credit-tu exchanges.
Dragonstar - October 17, 2011
Wait... Question; Real money as in the paper dollar or if you use PayPal?
BowEcho - October 17, 2011
Hm. Thankfully I got paid Friday- I just bought 600 credits, but I don't see a CS egg in my hatchery. I got a Pear, though I'm pretty sure that's not the same thing. xD
Meelanya - October 17, 2011
Vierv - Oh okay! I understand that! :3
Vierv - October 17, 2011
I was thinking that those who would buys lots of credits now using real money to get the eggs would sell the credits they bought that they didn't want to use or ran out of things to spend it on. So with more credits on the market I was thinking that for the sake of quick sales some might sell credits for less, is all.
Meelanya - October 17, 2011
Vierv, why would credits become cheaper because of that? I don't think that would be fair for those who buy credits with real money! :c Anyways, just bought 300 credits. Waiting on paypal to transfer it all. Cannot wait to see if I get an egg! o.o
Vierv - October 17, 2011
Oh, I guess I didn't read the post thoroughly cause I was too excited. Oops.
MidnightRainbows - October 17, 2011
Wow! That's awesome! Gives me motivation to actually do my chores! xD
Vierv - October 17, 2011
I also want to know if it is only for real money credits or if the tu bought ones work as well, I know it makes more sense if it's just the money bought creds but I have to make sure. Even if it isn't, at least I'll be able to buy Omni eggs eventually :3 plus credits will become alot cheaper just cause of this! So yay either way.
Meelanya - October 17, 2011
Awww. The temptation is killing me! I can only afford 300 credits as of now, and I'm going to be SO MAD if I don't get an egg! xD
Descent - October 17, 2011
I like this idea. It will balance the game :3 Good luck, dollar users :3
cheeseman - October 17, 2011
i want them all
housesangels - October 17, 2011
:D and I've always wanted a Kioka!!
heybay - October 17, 2011
This only applies to credits purchased with real money, I'm assuming?
Wishbelle - October 17, 2011
your making me wanna buy credits
Jenny - October 17, 2011
This seems fair. Thanks for allowing the retired CS pets to come back to the game. <3
Vierv - October 17, 2011
OMG awesome. :o I guess this doesn't apply to buying second-hand tokens though...
