    Twice.

    Each.

    2 LTS subscriptions each on both games each. For a total of 4. 2 CO LTS, 2 STO LTS. All four are pre-order. I'm what the free to play side of the MMO industry refers to as a "whale".

    Good lord...

    I have LTS in each, but I hardly play STO.. silly me..


    Here we are now going to the West Side
    Weapons in hand as we go for a ride
    Some may come and some may stay
    Watching out for a sunny day
    Where there's love and darkness and my sidearm

    I'd have a LTS on STO, but i'm just not a Sci-Fi RPG'er/Player.
    But when NW comes out, you can be sure if a LTS is available i'll have it ASAP :biggrin:

    Were there any specific reason for that personal attack other than that your opinion differs from mine?

    i'm passed the 1100 but no rewards just yet which i find a little sad. It's kind of like the unofficial statement "Yes, we're literally just in it for the money" that most of the players already feel from cryptic's side, and it shows too. Old content still remains buggy or broken, new content is quickly forgotten once sales slow, free content just doesn't happen all that often with out C-store involvement shortly after. Paying for memberships as it is isn't worth it since any benefits can easily be made up for in the c-store. The same can be said over on STO. Frankly with out the vet rewards there is no reason for any one to go gold and it just kind of kills the game for me. It's hard to feel passionate about a game the the developers themselves hardly seem passionate about.


    As a 1100 day veteran reward, people aren't really asking for much, but just a little something to show the devs care, a little thank you for sticking with the game as long as we have.

    how about a purple backup device of our choice :tongue: (flameproof suit on!) Just joking, I had to say it.

    I rather Devs to work on fixing other stuff for everybody than a special reward for vets. Another costume slot, more bank space, a huge bag, anything easy to implement is fine with me. :biggrin:

    I could live with vet rewards being every 200 days after 1000. And I agree that bug fixes are a priority at the moment.

    I'm Ok if they stop doing Vet Rewards at 1000 days. It would be a nice 'Thanks for Hanging in' bonus if they simplified the system beyond 1000 days to give a retcon for all characters on an account and every 500 days something like a rename token. That way no extra effort is spent on lifers or hard core golds than needs be.

    Honestly I felt that vet rewards should have been restricted to things like rename tokens, retcons, and other things that would require no additional coding all along.

    1000 days is certainly more than enough rewards. Especially since that big final one is a gaudy travel power that makes it so you can't see what you're doing while you fly. I think most people would be alright with that being where the program ends.

    That said, free rename/retcon tokens every 100 days or so would be very nice. We don't need content that only a miniscule percent of the playerbase will see or use.

    clearly stated at the bottom no more vet rewards

    Q: How high does it go?

    Veteran Rewards are capped at 1,000 days.


    i always thought vet rewards were an incentive to subscribe after F2P or keep subscribing
    but i don't think a reward 3 years off is much of an incentive.
    i think vet rewards capped at 1000 is fine, better than the golden ring for the few.
    i would like to see more content and other things available (free or paid) for all players and let's face it if you have been here 1100 days you probably aren't going anywhere

    Well, that definitely clarifies the point. It was nice while it lasted.

    Here's what I'd like if we get a new vet reward..
    1. One or more retcon tokens
    2. A VIP Powerhouse (same as the old one, just far less crowded)
    3. A costume or character slot
    4. A 15% bonus on all Questionite acquistion.
    5. A token for a free costume set.
    6. No more level-dependent tailoring fees (seriously why is tailoring level-dependent?).
    7. A 5% xp buff for anyone teamed with me (yes, a team of 5 vets would each get 20%).

    I'm not saying we need *all* of these mind you, it's just more of a wish list. But really, we haven't gotten a retcon for since 800, we need those retcons. Please?

    Also, here's a thought.. why not revisit the old vet rewards? The 600 day one is pretty light in features, why not add a couple things to buff it up? Gives the people that already have it something to enjoy and those about to get it something to look forward to.

    Only if this powerhouse is the same as the normal one except all textures are replaced with solid gold. All of them.

    Cryptic doesn't owe you guys any vet rewards guys.

    You should be thankful that they keep the servers up and provide you content updates like they do.

    As a free player I am not interested in Cryptic wasting too much time on vet stuff, make things for everyone (Free or VIP) to enjoy.

    As a free player SHUT YOUR MOUTH. No kidding you don't care, seeing as how you'll never earn one. Veteran Rewards aren't for YOU. They are for the people who PAY keep these servers going.
