Cheap mounts to promote mount covers!

look what popped up about an hour ago:



i wish they had done this at a useful point in time... like... when they released mounts.

anyone know how long itll last?
web announcement:

Hello Maplers!



Have you seen the new mount covers in the cash shop? We love both of them - the ostrich cover and the frog cover!

So that more players can try out the covers, the mounts are on sale for a limited time. Both the hog and boar mounts are currently 40% off!





Hog 20 million mesos -> 12 million mesos

Boar 50 million mesos -> 30 million mesos



Please note that the it will still say the original prices in the game, but you will only be paying the discounted price.



Happy Mapling!

Wow, they sure want to make more money XD.

Already a thread, kinda.

I bought my 120 mount 2 days prior to the patch

Way too involved around money recently. >_>

lawl perfect opportunity for me, but not enough mesos to buy with >< spent it all on SE 20's a week before the gold box event, so i kinda know how it feel Deviant =(

haha, Since I gto a drk without a mount, I needa do this ._.

I lol'ed a little when I read the announcement.

Its a good marketing strategy though.

ima get my silver mane ( :x i dun even have hog yet at 14x lolz)

not for the mount covers tho :X i jus wanted a piggy ~~ now for cheaaap <33

THANK YOU NEXON!

Always wanted a Silver Mane, but was always short on money.

Sucks.

There needs to be more money removed from the economy, not less.

they do things out of greed, and at the wrong place and time. this also makes them look like they they aren't good at marketing... other than post advertisements everywhere...
they should at least know how their players do things and how it works... players already that bought the mounts a long time ago would make most of the have an ironic feeling...
obviously, mounts need to be at least level 70 to use, so players below the level can't use the discount to their advantage either... they should at least make a level 30 mount or something for people to use... in the end only a small group of people might probably get it... but i guess best thing they could do is not buy the mount covers...

These sorts of events always seem to benefit me. Just in time for me to go about making my 4th job advancement.

Wow this would be perfect........IF I had 42m to spare for double upgrades.

But eh, the 12m for the Hog might work out for me. =P

This might have that desired effect though. Since it's such a deal, people who usually would not of bought mounts, would.

And in the long run, more mesos might be spent on mounts just by this.

Like me ._.

I'm a priest and I just bought a mount for the sake of riding an ostrich

OMG! I should've waited up until now before I got my mount TT_TT
I shouldn't have payed 20mil when I could've waited and got the hog for 12mil, thats a loss of 8 mil for me

Hmm... sounds interesting... I'm level 71 and didn't get a hog because of the price. (Not that 12m is exactly peanuts for me, but I might be able to afford it).

Do mounts require meso or NX to maintain or train or whatever?

bold. feed it every once in a while like you do a pet, but each feeding item costs 1k. trust me, its practically nothing compared to say... att pots.

and silver mane uses even less. i havent bought the "revitalizer" for months and i still have a 1/4 full slot.

Well, I saw this and decided to finally get my Mane on my BM. Too bad the item collection is unbearable when you're 12x and can't slice through Cornians in half a second like all the other 4th jobbers. I got to 40 wooden shoulder pads and 25 skulls and gave up. Grr.

Between this and the boxes event, could they possibly pineapple the older hardcore players any harder? What do they do for a sequel, put sugar in our gas tanks while giving us a Dirty Sanchez? All to sell NX.

Noobs and children are excused, but for the rest of us seriously, why the hell are we still playing this game? Everything we've ever worked hard for has been handed out for NX completely negating all the hard work we've put in. Call me a QQer all you want, I don't care because you're wrong, this is just another lack of reach-around on another lubeless raping on Nexon's part and I'm ablaze with nerd rage.

~I want my hundreds of play hours and millions of mesos back pl0x~
