I'd be willing to pay double for the Avian warrior costume set.
Just sayin', an awesome set like that, you could make alotta cash, instead of limiting it to a small amount of vets.

    It's not that awesome. Most of the pieces don't go together.

    We already had this argument back when they locked the much anticipated avian set behind 900 days of sub time--making it impossible to aquire without continuously subbing to the game and waiting around for years. Which is one of the things I HATED and dispised about CoX (where they locked all wing options behind years of sub time).

    Personally, I don't care for the set, and I'm very glad for that. Cuz if I did, I'd still be raging about it to this day and for 124 more days to come. They should NEVER lock ANY desirable costume pieces that are required for specific concepts behind specific sub time--EVER, in ANY game. The only pieces that should be locked (if at all) are things like the LTS emblems, which are more to show off that you're an LTS'er rather than stuff that's needed for specific concepts.

    I pretty much agree with you guys. And I would also pay double for the avian set to be able to do this!!

    It's like it was half done and they just put it out there to make peeps be quiet.

    Yeah, I managed to sit through two, maybe three seconds of the Codpiece Dance, and lost all interest in watching the rest of the video (and possibly some of my will to live, knowing I exist in the same universe as the person responsible for that...).

    Everytime this discussions is set, I have suggested to change vet rewards to a vet point scheme like CoX had. That way, if somebody is to fond of a specific reward they can either get it right away or wait for a few months while gathering the points. I think that way most people would be at peace with their expectations.

    Awww, you missed the endless string of ever multiplying and converging bird head codpiece dancers. Wait... on second thought, 2-3 second watch time was the right choice...

    Speaking as a lifer who signed up in beta...

    I think having costumes locked by vet rewards is a bad idea. Thought it was a bad idea in CoH as well when they locked birdwings behind a vet reward.

    Personally I think the point system that CoX finally shifted to makes the most sense. That or offer any vet reward on the c-store for a price, perhaps 2-3 times as much.

    As a lifer, I quite frankly think that all vet rewards should be either fluff, services like retcons, or even the doubling of the Questionite refining. Those are suitable to a vet reward, costume options aren't.

    Hmm.. that seems to be a good idea and is a compromise that would likley be most pleasing to the involved parties with the lowest amount of potential backlash and likely net cryptic a good amount of profit...

    ...naturally that means it'll never happen :rolleyes:
