Our Veteran Rewards page with embedded FAQ has been updated with details for rewards up to 700 days. This page supersedes the previous Atari support page for Veteran Rewards.
I agree with Spirtbrand it needs to be edited to tell the truth because at the time of this post im Subscribed For: 715.93 days . way to stay cryptic... its not like its been over 100 days sence THIS wordage issue as come up and you all changed how you tally up our days
He's talking about your actual Vet time used for reward purposes.
Your account page might say 720-something or whatever, but you only hit 700 today.
Ah, I understand now. I just figured it came out today because they finally decided what they were giving out. I didn't realize it's been 700 days since release.
Another quibble with the new page, the Epic Revelation Armor is called Nephilim Armor in the costume creator and tailor; if you look for Epic Revelation you'll never find it. And the the "boots" are actually leg accessories. And there is no chest piece.

Well that first part is sort of right. The tracker will count more days if you're a pre-release lifer and for the first 4 vet rewards you would have received the rewards slightly earlier (assuming you're tracker isn't bugged like some in STO) than a faithful subscriber post launch. However around the 500 reward they decided not to unlock them until the amount of days from launch. Its nothing to do with the tracker but of them not flipping the switch.
Going forward I would hope we can both emulate the kind of success the CoH veteran rewards programme had at the beginning re: the fanbase enthusiasm for them and the innovative & fresh ideas for cossie pieces, titles and devices, whilst simultaneously keeping in mind how disappointing, tired and a mere shadow of themselves they became later on. Hopefully Cryptic can avoid that.

Okay, so I have my 400 day set. Some of it is cool. Some of it is not. Specifically, the part where you need Beast Legs to use the "foot" wear. It is really cool looking, especially for a celestial themed hunter type, but the beast legs changes that. *Sigh* As you can see, I still like my shoulder pads.
I know I'm quoting a post from ages ago, but is this still true? I've looked on the wiki and it seems that it's still that way, only working on Beast legs. Any plans to update it so it works on all leg types?
Just noticed that I'm near 800 days (799.97 or something by the tracker). I know that the tracked number is superceded by dev choice, but I'm still curious as to the next reward bit.
I'd have searched for it, but the forum search function seems borked atm.

What I would like to see is when I actually get another 100 days for my next perk that Cryptic got off their behinds and had the perk ready for me! Every 100 days I wait in the dark. Wouldn't it make more sense to have the perks all done ahead of time so the LONG time veterans such as myself spending money since beta can actually get the perk on time?? When I hit 1,000 days I guess I will wait for you again to give me my perk rewards. Very upsetting.

Oh noes! What will you do without your vet reward tchotchka? How will your life go on?!?!?!
Seriously, of all the things that could possibly disappoint or upset someone THIS is what gets your panties in a bunch? 900 days was on Saturday. You've been waiting a whole 2 days. Suck it up.

What I am getting at is why are they not done before anyone gets the perk? I'd also like to know what they are planning and when it may be out. And thanks for being completely rude about me posting what I feel is right. Also I had over 900 days on Saturday. Right now I am at 909 and its Wednesday. Thanks for understanding and posting your smart remarks though. Everyone who posts on here just loves it when you slap them in the face. Enjoy!

The perk is given out based on a starting date of September 1, 2009, the day the game went live. Today is day 904.
I dunno, just throwing this out, but maybe they forgot about it due to them being up to their eyeballs in work on the stat and gear revamp.
Patience young grasshopper. You'll get your tchotchka soon enough.
they changed the way it works but never updated the FAQ to say that lifetimers now have to wait till launch date to get vet stuff and then we get another late one. STO it seems has 100-1000 already mapped out. so why is it so hard to make the same thing for CO?
You know, I don't mnd waiting. Don't bug me a bit. In fact, I'm a bit of an 'anticipation' junkie, so waiting just heightens the excitement for me...
But I do kind of mind the lack of any heads-up from anyone at Cryptic. A quick "We don't have it ready yet, but you'll get it soon". Failure to acknowledge the lateness of the reward just adds fuel to the 'they forgot' fire...
It also creates a feeling of 'this better be worth the wait', followed by the inevitable 'meh' posts when it's something folks don't really care about...
Honestly, Veteran Rewards need a little priority and attention, since it's one of the few things subscribers get exclusively...
As Mender said, the VRs are planned to a 1000 days for STO; in CO it's seeming more and more like an afterthought each time a new plateau is hit...

Now I like your attitude Rhyatt! I also found this on the CO Wiki: It is expected that on or around 2/19/12 that the 900 day veteran reward will be handed out, though this has not been confirmed. At least someone has heard about it even though its not here yet.

It's not that its been heard about, it's maths. If you got your sub before launch day, from 700 days on or whatever it they will be handed out at the games 100 days mark. They are a little late. Stormshade posted what they were doing. What more can we do? They are busy overhauling the game.
Also, while purple is my favorite color, that color text makes it extremely hard to read.

It works on Tights & Skin....
hmmmmm seems my interweb has serious lag......:D
The link in the OP's post doesn't have info. for 600 days... :eek:
...And 700 is coming up fast! :rolleyes:
What discount?
Why are you quoting someone that posted like eons ago?
Yes, it is now live.
Brilliant!
Just to let you know that the Veteran Rewards page has been updated with reward details, as well as an embedded FAQ at the bottom of the page.
Enjoy your rewards and thank you again for your support!
Blue Fire
The FAQ should probably state that it is calculated from when you subscribed/bought Lifetime or game launch, whichever is later.
(4:27 - 5:19 = 52 minute turnaround!)
Now that's service! :cool:
Oh well...all good things and all that.
:rolleyes:
Except mine is calculated prior to game launch. So I'm not sure what you're asking for.
He's talking about your actual Vet time used for reward purposes.

Cheers, mate.
Healing potion? Missprint maybe?
??? AFAIK 500 days = 30 minute cooldown Heroic Resonance?

Yeah, I wondered about that too. I don't remember getting one, unless it's talking about Heroic Resonance.

Not due till November 10th.
Thanks, good to know
But I'm more interested in what it is than when.
If past history is any indication we probably won't know until the 9th. Either that or be surprised after maintenance on the 10th.

You might say "But, Brou! Only Atari Man did that!"
Well, you don't know what PWE-man will do yet! You don't know what he's capable of. You don't know what...she!
...PWE Woman can do.

1000 day reward should be...
...MOAR DEVICE SLOTS!
Sure would be nice if they'd just mention it huh?
I don't really consider what we get now to even be veteran rewards. The real veteran rewards stopped when we stopped getting COOL stuff.
