This is another disappointing AU package to beg real money for. Checkered costume should have just been revamped instead of being AU released. Good to see some news, but how about talking about all the server errors we're getting though?

If someone doesn't like this upgrade, then just think of it as saving your money in your pocket. :thumbsup:

@SunnyDay

Thats not really the point though?

It's a very plain costume for actual money, which would've done way better as a revamp instead.

Plus a lot of them look rushed and flat, and honestly lazy ( I'm looking at the vixen :/ )

Yeah, acknowledgment/explanation of the server troubles would be much appreciated. Is it a power issue? Maintenance? Or...a DDOS or something sinister?

I love the site but I'm kinda losing faith a bit the past few weeks...

Players don't have to buy the new Account Upgrade if they don't like it, sure but...

Releasing something low effort like this makes it seem like players aren't worth it. Like, "we don't have to try, but we might as well see if we can get people to spend money on it anyway".

Even if I don't want a particular pet or color, I can appreciate the effort it took to make them look good, and I know they'll appeal to others in the player base. And many pets *do* show that thought and effort, which is how I know these could have been done better.

This...seems kind of like it's banking on players to not notice or care the problems these designs have. Or it's releasing an AU set for the sake of releasing *something*.

Nobody *has* to get these pets, but we're at a point where we expect a certain amount of quality from this site, being a long-running business with otherwise fantastic work put into it.

Seconding wanting an explanation for all the site errors too.
Are y'all really gonna play this week-late-update game again? :/

The Echlin is nice :)

ayyyyye @ColdLegumes hit the nail on the head with all your points. couldn't have said it better.

2018 has been rough for mara. first the password changing mess, then the ignored but constant 503 errors, and now a very weak AU. :(

checkers have some potential, yeah! RIP the oglue (not bad though, i like the colors just not as much as the old ones albeit that's my personal taste) but the tasi and ushunda are my favorites schemes!

would love to see black and white or grey checkered Lorius and Chibs <3
can't wait to see what the fasoro will look like. . . i know it's coming ;]

id really like to say thank you for all of staff's hard work over the last couple months. Between the multiple summer events and multiple hackings, I can't even imagine the workload, schedules, hectic changes on the fly, meeting deadlines, etc.

you guys do so much to tend to this wonderful site we all love so much, and im very grateful for your commitment to it and the players.

cheers to all the goodness you have in store for us this month, to the dedication staff has shown to be as accommodating as possible to players, and to the fact that despite all the craziness that has been going on, the site has kept up its consistency in its ability to add a new AU package before the end of the month's first week.

Proud of you <3

For me, Marapets has undoubtedly become one of the most non secure websites I have ever been on - and it’s scarier to think that I have used bank details on it

B.o.r.i.n.g.

Finally a Tasi upgrade! :blush:

Those pets I think look good with this costume is the Poera and the Yuni=)

Wished the yuni was in a purple theme. Other than that its just a eh to me. Its an ok costume revamp, just not one Ill be saving for since I already have the yuni.
