This is what I hope it will offer basing my assumptions on what already came as "GMS-exclusive" (NLC, CWK). I just prefer getting something new instead of a sh'itty PQ only used to get overpowered items.

It's never meant "something other versions don't have", or even "something the version gets first." It quite simply means the idea came from that version. For GMS-exclusive content, the content itself is made in Korea and comes to whatever version happens to patch it in first.
ex·clu·sive
Noun: An item or story published or broadcast by only one source.
Adjective: Excluding or not admitting other things.
Exclusive is supposed to mean one of a kind, the only, etc. Once the content spreads, it's no longer exclusive, so that word does not apply. I don't see how it's hard to understand. Content is exclusive or it's not. There's no grey area in this term.
As for NLC/magatia, I'm fairly certain it was completely if not mostly developed in-house at NexonNA, hence the lack of updates since they lost major players in that team. The video talking about the exclusive content also made sure to mention that NexonNA was 'working hard' to bring the gms-exclusive content to gms. Add on top of the the coding changes in big bang to make it easier for smaller versions to code exclusive content.
We get major game content from korea, that's true, but so does every version. Most versions have that and some extra content specific to players in their area. Korea doesn't spend all its time making exclusive content for other versions, otherwise we wouldn't have all these new classes, skill changes, and areas rolling out of there on a near monthly basis.

For those wondering why some people can lead, and others (even with TT medal/prequests done) can't: if you didn't host the 120 pq back when the event was going on, you can't lead now.

...I guess that makes sense? Not really but ok?
The rest of this thread is complete garbage though. Just sayin.

From what I read, they said we could, but they'd have to adjust it. Never did I read them say that we would absolutely see the return of VPQ.
As for arguments about the definition of exclusivity, not a single one would allow for the return of VPQ to be classified as 'exclusive'.

i've been saying this for a while, iirc there was a "quest" that you got if you beat the pq after the event, it's the only thing that people that can do the PQ have in difference with those that can't.
however, there is also a hack out there, i've been afking in the ch1, and everyone keeps mentioning it.

Yes, but no one claimed this to be true. People would probably be pissed if VPQ was the only thing for part 5.

It's not like I wasn't expecting it to be glitchy. I mean it hasn't been touched since pre BB, after all.

All has to do with personal levels of expectation.
Personally though, I would be absolutely pissed if VPQ were the exclusive content.
After all the secrecy, it better be damn awesome.
(Plus, I rather like that my main has an unobtainable medal that outclasses any other.  )
...then again, I wouldn't be surprised if the big event were "Inner-tubes vs Surfboards!"

Don't be ridiculous - We all know it's going to Cake vs Pie III - The Event That Wouldn't Die.
It's not having what you want - It's wanting what you've got.

i'd really like if they made the medal "tradeable within the acount" considering new classes that come out can't get anything close to it.

3% on a 155 character for doing nothing? Not bad at all.
Their next event can be as poorly balanced as they want if it means I walk away with some easy leveling or some nice items.

Sadder is that the only other character I got the medal on was my Bishop.
Lot of good that's doing me, let me tell ya.

It went on for too long. Yes add VPQ back but add something else and big with it. Everyone here already knows what I'm saying so I won't say it.

i really liked figuring out how the alien HP and everything worked, but i've never been one to train, so this PQ never hit me hard... except the first week when rthe summons would literally take the spawn, it was a real alien invasion, which although annoying, was hilarious. a friend of mine saved the boots, i wasn't able to get the crystanol to save the gloves, those were some pretty cool equips, and i'd like a second chance at getting them
nostalgia goggles ofc. i know they messed up everyone's training, to the point that this pq was kind of "forced" but hey, alien invasion f3
and only my DrK has the medal, i forgot to do the last quest on the DB ~_~
