New Vet Rewards?

jadetorajadetora Posts: 116 Arc User
You know, the Vet Rewards stop at day 1,000 so We're wondering, will players ever see a new Vet Reward? It'd certainly be nice.

If you'd like new Vet Rewards, sign the thread!

    I would have liked New Vet Rewards over 500 days ago...
    They gave new rewards in STO. But we know how ****z work in CO.

    Can't remember where I saw it, but I seem to remember it being said that we will not get any above 1000 days.

    /signed......with the proviso that it is not costume sets that will be locked out for others. I am almost at the 900 day mark and will soon have the Avian Warrior set that I have been waiting for for a loooooong time. This should have been a set that is released in the C-Store.

    I did not stay in CO for so long because of this vet reward, and don't get me wrong....I'm glad I'll have it soon and that I will not have to pay for it.......but locking it behind a 900 day reward was a bum move.

    For more rewards, I would suggest more free retcons, costume change tokens, another 20% discount at the tailor. Stuff like that.

    Odd. At this point my characters already tend to have more free retcons than I can reasonably use (*), and costume change tokens and additional tailor discounts don't matter that much to me since there's always plenty of globals in the bank. (Maybe totally free tailor use or something. As it is, I usually forget that I have the costume change token and always wind up paying in globals.)

    I have a few ideas for possibilities. Some are unlikely... well, all of them are unlikely given that we probably won't get any more stuff anyway.

    -- Access to the legacy travel powers.
    -- A token to unlock one travel power of our choosing (whether Z-store, Q-store or recognition).
    -- All travel powers start at R2, and can be upgraded to R3 at level 20 instead of 40.

    -- An extra aura slot unlocked on each character.
    -- An extra legacy aura token.
    -- A unique veteran aura.

    -- A unique veteran vehicle. (Better than Z-store vehicles, maybe in the low-to-mid range of Drifter vehicles.)

    This would be pretty much a big thank you from me. Whenever they released slot stuff while trying to think of veteran rewards, they would have done something like this.

    What new rewards? STO's rewards stop at 1000 days too.

    These are pretty good suggestions. Agreed with pretty much all of these.

    That would give some people more points in their builds than others. Wouldn't be an issue (much) in PvE (although I'd love to have my Disciple's travel powers at R2 there's no spare points to do it with the build I'm using) for PvP I can see this causing some friction.

    I would like to have:
    -Name change token
    -Tailor discounted to 50%
    -Retcon token. You can't have too many...ok, i have like 6 on all my alts......
    -Stuff that doesn't create huge "favorismbattle" between players.
    Allready available ingame.

    Not:
    -Powers
    -Unique stuff
    -Extra power points
    Because making new stuff is hard.
    Unique stuff makes others angry.

    And the STO thing. Mixed up some stuff. My bad. I'm sorry. Mea culpa.

    Eh, tend to agree with this too. We're torn. On one hand, We kinda feel like if you're LTS or you've subscribed for that long, you're kinda entitled to special things. On the other, you're not really 'entitled' to anything.. Blehh..

    I don't generally like the idea of vet rewards that lock unique items behind long term time gates. I would rather see the time that might be spent on developing new vet rewards instead be spent developing new items for the store. Perhaps give bonuses such as are already available (costume slots, character slots, etc) as vet rewards. Hmm, or perhaps merely bonus zen/questionite.


    For that matter I believe that silver players should get vet rewards based on how much they have spent on the game. For example: at $15 per month a subscriber would have paid approximately $250 by the time they reach the 500 day vet reward. I believe that a silver player who has spent the same $250 on the game should get the 500 day reward.

    As long as the Veteran rewards are SERVICES and not costumes, I'm ok with this

    Locking costumes behind the Veteran status is NOT acceptable (*Grieves for the Avian Warrior Pack* :frown: This pack SHOULD HAVE BEEN IN Z-STORE NOT VETERAN REWARD)

    During the last Lifetime sale for STO, they added outfits to LTS. Its not unreasonable to add more things that are granted automatically to LTS or subscriptions in general.

    Ah. Thats the thing was. I knew they added something somewhere. I'm pulling my apology.

    We're.. partially on the fence about it..

    On one hand, it creates a feeling of inequality among players if Cryptic rewards people with some unique costume, power, or something.. on the other, especially for those that sub and LTS members, the player-base kind of isn't on equal grounds.

    You would think you'd tend to deserve something special and unique for paying so much money into their game and either tossing in $15.00 a month or $300 for LTS and We don't really understand how someone can say "You don't deserve anything unique for that. Everyone should get the same stuff."

    But everyone's not paying into the game or really supporting it? You know? So those that support it more We tend to kind of believe should probably get more from it.

    I really hope there won't be anymore, having things locked behind time gates stinks for people who cannot afford lifetime.

    New Vet rewards would be an incentive for me to renew my subscription.

    I have not been renewing my monthly subscription the past 6 month. I have been hoping for more story content. :)

    But new vet rewards would start my completionist drive going again.

    You know what I think would be an awesome new vet reward?

    If they went back and did the avian warrior set right. :mad:
