They should let us buy Cash Items, especially new ones, for free, since.. well, they can be bugged as well. And in fact there were some bugs with them as well, after Big Bang. An example is the old cash item's UI (especially for GMS-exclusive stuff) which was ported from the old version without being revamped for Big Bang.
They're wrong for not allowing us to use the Cash Shop. I'm not saying to give us unlimited NX like back in 2008 (even if it'd probably be a good idea because it'd allow us to test literally EVERYTHING), since there was abuse and all (e.g.: super megaphones), but at least let us buy new NX stuff like in KMST. Also give us free miracle cubes, potential scrolls and wheels of destiny when we have to test powerful bosses like Empress Cygnus (the latter was actually done on KMST), so that we can AT LEAST ATTEMPT to test a boss fully by reaching the end of the fight.
Else the whole test server is almost pointless. What are we even doing there if we can't test properly everything?
I still remember back in 2008 when they opened Tespia to test level 200 quests and HornTail.. too bad, we were only allowed to reach level 162, and, on top of that, we got no scrolls or powerful stuff we could attempt to HT with. Maybe only one group was able to reach a good part of it, but still nobody was able to kill it. Isn't that just pointless?
Well, it looks like they want to follow the tradition, because that's what keeps happening in every single Tespia round.
And maybe I can also suppose why. They probably don't want it to look too much like a private server (and you know which ones I'm talking about), but on the other side they really should allow testers to do more things and give us the chance to REALLY test everything properly, which they still haven't done.
eeh, i disagree here, i really don't think cubes and the such are necessary, unless they are incorporating some extremely hard boss or something, for this event, i don't see the need for cubes. however, let's say they planned to implement the super cubes, in such case, i agree with you, let us test that they work properly (although it's NX, so they probably won't mess that
)
