Independence Day is a US Holiday NOT JP Holiday...unless it's celebrated around the world like Christmas, new years or valentines.

Well there's several special decos in the game data that have yet to be released. It's unknown what other special "holiday" or celebratory themes ST will put online other than obvious one's like Halloween in Oct.

I really hope they have these available sometime:

Easter isn't a US holiday, its a religious Holiday:
Christian, More important than Christmas even.


Legit Version:

Christmas: Birth of Jesus Christ
Easter: Jesus died crusified on the cross for our sins so we could be saved from hell, and 3 days later he was raised from the dead, accending to Heaven

Easter > Christmas

...
Corperate Version:

Xmas: Santa Clause, Killing Evergreen Trees and decorating them http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_frown.gif, a drummer boy, and of course buy buy buy gifts!
Easter: Easter Bunny! buy buy buy Chocolate!

Christmas > Easter

The problem with that is the JPN had Fire Break back in March. So it has nothing to do with summer.

There is a decent chance sega might do an event for the new Nights game.

I would agree with the resting on the beach idea, but the one decoration looks like it may be ideal for a Bon festival, a day in Japan where they believe that the spirits of the dead return to them and they celebreate with them, finishing off the launching of fireboats or fireworks, sending them back to another year of rest.

That was back toward the beginning of May, actually. Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't recall anything special for Golden Week. Actually, I'm pretty sure the SonicTeam staff were off for the week (or part of it, at least), so there weren't any updates. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_lol.gif

Looking at the silhouette that creature has in PSU: Perfect Bible, it seems to have a... bamboo tube (or rocket launcher!) on its back. ... Wait. What if it is a launcher type thing? If there ends up being a fireworks festival or something, that could work out pretty nicely!

The next Jaggo creature will probably have some sort of summer spin-off.

It looks to me like swimming goggles,
Snorkels, and possible a surf board being held.

http://i42.photobucket.com/albums/e349/skyepic/34543.jpg

Have fun trying to edit around the picture to see what you can make out of it.


Edit: Then again he has something wrapped around the neck.
Eh... We'll just have to see what this Jaggo type is in the near future.


Edit2: Then again that thing thats wrapped around it's neck looks like it can be a straight bar that is connected to the tube coming out towards the top.
Thus can be presumed a design for some type of simple snorkelers.

ACTUALLY..... Christmas (I mentioned this earlier) is originally the Saturnalia which is an Ancient Roman holiday where they worship Saturn, and is very similar to how Christmas is celebrated today.
Also Christmas has some rituals from Yuletide, a Germanic Pagan holiday, which is where the Tannenbaum or CHRISTMAS TREE is from, and all the green and red and holly reefs come from, and SANTA http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif.

and Easter or should I say Ishtar, is a (I forget the ancient civilization who started this) holiday that was celebrated until the 1700's. It was to honor the fertility goddess Ishtar. This is where the rabbit and colored eggs came from and the hiding them. Being that rabbits and eggs are symbols of fertility.


So the Easter Bunny, Santa and Colored Eggs aren't corporate, they're Pagan. And all the Christians who celebrate these holidays are celebrating PAGAN HOLIDAYS http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif! So go repent!

DikkyRay
Jun 27, 2007, 10:51 AM
Christmas was always celebrating bhrists birth >.> There was a holiday close to christas, not christmas.
Thank to dumbasses who hate religious views, they bring in the Yuletide. Thats so they MAKE it a pagan holiday, so Public schools can celebrate it without the "zomg religion"

And why was that guy banned?

Golto
Jun 27, 2007, 10:59 AM
LOL the pagan holidays were incorporated into Christianty rather early. Around 3rd-4th century not the 1950s http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_razz.gif Blame the Romans for all the pagan stuff since they were the first big supporters of Christiainity and used the incorporation of pagan holidies to convert the masses.

there are many biblical scholars who would say Christ wasn't born in dead winter ( read the circmstances around his birth, who the HELL would be outside at night during winter. Yes it gets VERY cold in the middle east during December). I don't hate religious views, i just think its ironic and funny that they don't know the history behind what they poor their lives into. Valentines day is another one of those " Oh lets try to convert the Pagans so lets put our holiday on their day so they can still celebrate the holiday they've been celebrating since childhood and still be one of us" holidays...


Ya I didn't want to to go off topic but I just HAD to say something.

?? Independants Day = Ralph Nader Day?

I can say it: "We are not getting an Independance Day themed lobby". There, I said it.

We got White Day on the American servers because they had all of the content in the game for the Japanese players. This game is made for them, thus the holidays included are ones they are familiar with. The majority of Americans/Europeans are not familiar with White Day, but it the content was there so they included it. Good thing to, because I would've hated to see the kids complaints if they decided NOT to give this to our servers.

Yes. And while they don't necessarily celebrate Christmas, they have embraced some of the Americanized traditions that it represents....much like we do with Cinco De Mayo and St. Patricks Day.

darthplagis
Jun 27, 2007, 12:58 PM
that scuba jaggo would be sweet!!! a nights event would also rule BIG TIME esp if we get the out of tune kids back again!!!

SANTA is red and white thanks to a major drinks company that rhymes with JOKE and happen to have red and white packaging. he was greeny brown (think furs and tans) before hand.

halloween would be great if they upgraded the hallowen rod when dropped on a higher rank so it aint a C.

in reality ST know the game is international so they would try to catch as many peak holidays as possible as well as matching up with in game agendas (does unification day have ANYTHING special except lobby decors and room ornament?)

Rashiid
Jun 27, 2007, 01:05 PM

JAFO22000
Jun 27, 2007, 01:17 PM
Well, the Mexican and Italian populations in Japan are so low that these holidays are not celebrated. And, lets face it, the only reason Americans really celebrate these holidays is that it's another excuse to drink.

Also, I don't know of any country that celebrates the independance day of another country. We certainly only celebrate one Independance Day on July 4th.

We just got the sonic event earlier then the JPN because the Famtisu CUP event is about rappies and not Jaggos. They will be getting the sonic event stuff in this week's update.

Soukosa
Jun 27, 2007, 02:31 PM
If Fami Cup was only about Rappies than wouldn't they have gotten the Jaggos after the event was over? It should be pretty obvious that we got the event Jaggos early due to the firebreak mission that has Jaggos spawning incredibly frequently. They aren't gonna let the value of Giga / Bullet PP Save fall so easily, especially considering how powerful it is. JP players had Jaggo Amures during this time as well, so it's nothing different from them.

This last week is like an extra week for the Famtisu CUP.
What rare monster appears in Famistu CUP events? What rare monster part is used in the Famtisu trading mission? Rappy kthxbye

PS they sure as hell didn't mind decreasing the value of giga/skill pp save so why would they care about giga/ bullet pp save's value decreasing?

They have a celebration that takes place in the fall honoring their ancestors. I remember seeing pics of it from the JP version. Know the Primitive Moatoob Idol room decoration? Dagora City is decorated with those; bonfires all over the place, too.
