BRING BACK POTABLE BADGES

Dear Nexon,

Please bring back the potable badges, a lot of players who are new/returning/switching classes are missing this amazing feature.
I believe it would be more fair if everyone has access to obtain these such badges. A lot of players want to try and play new classes, but sadly there is no potable badges available for the players to make the switch. On behalf the community, we are wondering if you guys will ever bring back Sengoku High? I believe this is the only chance we have for potable badges. This would incentives people to switch classes, and try new things out. This would also help new players have a chance to be even stronger, and as well as old players.

Thank you
GMS COMMUNITY.

    Pretty much. As much as I and everyone else would love for them to come back, sometimes you just have to see the writing on the wall and accept that you're yelling into the void with no hope of a response. This isn't a case of "maybe if I shout a little louder this time, then it'll work", either.

    I'm am a returning; I Would like a potable badge; I'm not entirely sure what happened to them but I'm kind of sad that they took them away; I would imagine the player base isn't happy about this too. What was the reason Nexon took them away in the first place is there an official statement from Nexon?

    It boils down to "These items are broken so it's easier to cut them off from new players than to remove them from those who already have them."

    actually only real and brutal truth in that link
    difficult to maintain from a technical standpoint
    as of care for not being broken MEMoE and
    We recognized that some players may not be happy or agree with these changes, but we needed to make these difficult decisions in consideration of the long-term progression of equipment and maintenance of the game..

    they made it clear with in same time +- (2018) releasing broken NEW items like Ring of Torment,lucid ear,firestarter ring inisde gamble pay wall on top of lots of nerfs to make this items HOT
    low battleroid sales and matilda nerf and much more....

    despite not being able to maintain some of these exclusive features we have added in the past, we are moving in the right direction.

    yea sure

    What a time to be playing Reboot Server, where none of that stuff exists.

    reboot came in 2015/2016~ not in 2005/2007
    and its not fair excuse to say you can reboot now... if so they can make new payboot world and open casinos all they want

    Re/code: What’s the first step toward finding a better foothold in the West?

    Owen Mahoney: We think there’s a couple things. We’re going to make immersive games that are properly done free-to-play. Free-to-play does not mean “trick your customers into paying you money” or “give them something that is potentially free or supposedly free but, in fact, in order to really enjoy yourself, you have to pay money.” That is not free-to-play. Going after whales is a fundamental misunderstanding of what that really is. Our objective is to bring really good, immersive, synchronous online gameplay to the West. We have to have an infrastructure, an operating team that can execute that as well as we do in Korea, China and Japan, and also we have to have the types of IP that really resonate with Western users.

    That's why I used the phrase I did.

    As for the quote, technically you can play the game for free. Yes I'll agree there's too much pay to win on the regular servers. That's why I play reboot.
    I don't disagree that these items are broken. I still think KMS is the most superior server out there and still want a 1:1 copy of it.

    I'm breaking no rules by pointing out that your poll accomplishes nothing and that you've tainted the results by voting in one of your own making. Last I checked they don't ban people for things of that nature.

    Nice try though.
