Thread: Jet-pack ... gone??

  1. #1

    Jet-pack ... gone??

    So where did the jet-pack go? Was it removed intentionally? Or, just a "slip" when the valentine items were added?

    Please bring the jet-pack back!

    It would be cool if it was removed tho. Not good, but it used to be a challenge to earn 5m creds for yalm on first character and until then you were forced to run through forests and monsters. Was fun. .. but slow.

    The jetpack is 100x more visually appealing though. As well as the equip time.

    Yes. You are totally right. The equip time is what makes it good. Too bad all those yalms are just sitting in vendors tho.

    There's plenty of unused (or obsolete) content and items in the game. No need to make players suffer just for the sake of nostalgia. :P

    Dear AO Devs: you'll probably ignore this but if you're removing the jetpacks you'd better make it the same time to equip a yalm as it does a jetpack. Or I'll take you outside and pull faces at you. And as I'm a Nanomage you do not want that.

    I'd be seriously disappointed if they intentionally removed this. Was one of the best additions to the game.

    I said it before they got implemented and someone thought it was a good enough point to do it so I'll say it again just in case... It's The Future, We Need Jetpacks!

    Guessing they'll be added back at a premium. (Like most of the valentines items :P). *Hopefully* it is a mistake though...

    Sorry, I didn't see this post. The Jetpack was removed as it was a Birthday reward/gift that we had simply forgotten to remove after the season passed, akin to leaving hecklers frosted/with party hats. Sorry for the inconvenience, but they should return for this year's birthday festivities.

    I'm not talking about the hockey mask, I'm talking about the mask I wear *behind* the hockey mask. Oh alright, next birthday for my legion of alts it is then...

    To be honest, thats what i thought they were as well, something specific to bday celebrations...which is why during those few weeks, i started about 20 alts and got them all jetpacks. I thought they would be removed after the celebrations so I was surprised to still see them as claimable a couple months ago

    Good to know they'll be back for next bday stuff though

    But then you should also remove it from the Game launcher.

    I was slightly saddened to see it gone, I was stupid enough not to get one on all my Toons.
    As a matter of fact, I had to actually buy a yalm for my Keeper to do some stuff... (Used FC points though hehehehe, as I'm saving the Vet Points.)

    IMO the Item Store yalm, should be atleast double it's current price...

    Did everyone forget about the phasefront vehicles? Pay for your luxuries!
    $5 = all your toons can always fly, right? Or am I missing something?

    Don't forget you can also buy tradeable items from the itemstore and sell them for ingame creds to buy your first yalm.

    This is for people after the authentic yalm buying experience.
    This was what I was wearing. Tell me I asked for it
