Stage 2 was available for about 2 hours before Nexon disabled it.

From what I've gathered, we get 4 pieces of armor - overall, hat, glove, and shoe - and these can be scrolled. They have more slots than most items, but they're not permanent; they can be made permanent, but no one knows how. And you get these items during stage 2, which isn't available yet, but some people still have these items (somehow).
Right?
Pretty much right. Except people got them because Stage 2 was activated for a short amount of time before the Server Maintenance last night, which deactivated it.
The Visitor Event Guide/Discussion. - LegendGospel - 2010-08-22
Correct. People have these items because stage 2 was active for 4 hours or so, because Nexon screwed up. They then did a SC to fix it, but left the aliens from stage 2, screwing up most maps.

It is shameful that Nexon hasnt addressed the alien ruining regular monsters spawning. There should have been another SC 5 minutes after this was reported. For a multi million dollar company their upkeep of Maple is atrocious.

Truth. How am I supposed to train properly when I can't hit the lolAliens and they are trolling most of our maps by simply spawning? I admit the patch was relatively bug free but they screwed up their streak by releasing stage 2 and abruptly pulling the stage, leaving us with a hell of a mess of things.

Even if the necessary equipment were currently obtainable, players who don't care about the event shouldn't be forced into participating in it.

There's a lack of hindsight, but admittedly not any major Alien Invastion glitch. Yes however, making the Aliens pop up everywhere to force the event is a bad idea. Here's hoping stage 3 gets rid of them all and they are all in one confined area.

It doesn't. The aliens just change to their higher level forms.

They don't work on the weekends so being that it was already Friday night they just decided instead of -fixing- the problems Stage 2 was causing they would just partially remove it (I'm sure they -thought- they removed it completely) so they wouldn't have to stay at the office any longer than they had to.
If Stage 2 isn't activated Monday or Tuesday then I don't know what to say. A couple of days of this alien torture is bad enough.

I am extremely disappointed with this event. I just advanced to 4th job on my F/P a few days ago. I can't do the Elquines quest, because Sharks no longer exist. I can't hunt monsters for potentialed gear, because they don't exist. Everywhere I go I have to look at these ugly ass aliens that I can't do anything about. All I can do is train at Gallos/Skeles and wait for this damn event to end.
On another note, I speculate that once we can actually kill the aliens, we'll be seeing them drop the 1st Unwanted Visitor items.

So we're going from insane amounts of unavoidable weak aliens to insane amounts of potentially unavoidable strong aliens?

Sadly no, I have a bing suit, as do several people who happened to be logged in on those few hours that stage 2 was open, so we can kill the aliens, and they dont appear to be dropping them, as they have not appeared on any servers yet.

Only after stage 2 starts for real and everyone will be able to get the bing suit. So they will be killable.

As i was doing the missions today, i was thinking about what else they could do with this, or what they might be able to do to make it a little more interesting. When i got to the shuttle one, it occurred to me: instead of hovering on the ground, let us actually fly it, up to the mothership or something. Basically, imagine the flight to Time temple, but there's monsters all over. I guess you could also compare it to DRPQ, but we'd need more mobility than DRPQ allows. If you've played Sonic 2, something like Sky Chase zone. Depending on the difficulty, maybe it could be "Transform breaks when hit", or no potions allowed with the % HP based damage like the current aliens. Of course you'd need no EXP loss for it to be viable but yeah, I think that would be pretty cool.

I participated in this lousy event for seven days and all I got was this mount.

Oh well, it's pretty fast

Anyone know how to get to stage/part 2 of these quests?
All I got is this louse space ship...

Are there any other ways to get the OSSS medals (cell trade-in ones) quickly and easily other than the "log in for 1 hour" thing? That seems to be out of the question for Vista users... I was hoping for a perma-set on at least two of my characters.
Also, if it isn't obvious enough already, stage 2 is back again.
