Lifetime Sub - Weekly Supply of Fighters

edited May 2011 in C-Store, ZEN, and Promotions
As you can see I've not bought the lifetime sub. It has no benefit to me personally. Save money, no thanks. The offer lacks goodies that can apply to every character. Cryptic could make more money by giving access to a special area in c-store.

Anyone else feel that way? Not all about the lifetime saving more about the play?

I would like some things that make a difference to every existing toon.

1. Rechargeable Fighters (so I don't need to do the Vault constantly)

2. Rechargeable batteries (one of every kind, even ground)

3. Assimilation - ability to apply 2 borg traits from an option list of about 10 to existing toons. Not sure how hard that would be. Could also make the traits PvE only to avoid disruption of PvP.

Special C-store Area could allow players to really define how far they take their gaming and change their experience while not getting advantage in terms of play. More economical.

Yes I would buy more from c-store especially if it is items limited to most players but still giving within the game.
1. Devidians cane
2. Breen zero set
3. Reman shield

and every other bonus item that ranks with you. If I could buy them for a new toon for 50 tokens each and this ability is granted with lifetime. This alone would make me buy lifetime then give Cryptic more of my money.

Would anyone else do this?

    lol, keep wishing:P

    You dont even have a lifer account and already you want a megaton of free-goodies with it, methinks in cryptics eyes thats put you way further down the list than the hordrs of day-one lifers who are still trying to petition for various minor-lifer-bonuses.

    Also, 50 AT per bonus/preorder/limited item? You might want to x10 that estimate at least:P

    He's saying there's hardly any insentive to purchase a lifer account. There should be some more stuff, not freebees but a difference in accessables from a subscription buyer to a life time subscriber.

    I'm one, and I agree with this. Too bad I'll never see it.

    That we hav soom More (ok i dont use mutch and is has nothing special and after 400 days everyone can get to this Special Station)

    but if the Game runs only long enough we can play it for free ok only if we dont want somethink from C-Store but that should be enough and i was happy that i could buy Lifetime so long after game was released in other Games you cant get Lifetime after release...

    Yeah... no incentive at all... except for the fact that I now get to play the game for free?

    Why should ATARI or CRYPTIC bundle this to a lifetime sub?
    In a commercial way it doesn't make sense at all cause you can sell your hide only once but you can shear a sheep as long as it lifes.

    I would totally love to see some rechargeable action going on, like for the lifers a rechargeable fighter and the cryo grenades for lifers, one (not both) could be a reward for 600 day, like pick a reward, a recharge able fighter or cryo grenade or <insert cool item here>.


    IMO a LTS should get small perks.

    They should not be items already in game, but tweeks of items in game that make people go ooo thats nice. (that way your not making new items from scratch, just modding something, fast and painless)
    They should not be uber items that are game changing or worth rolling a new toon for.
    They should be something that has a "oh thats really nice" feel to the item. and make people go "oh thats cool" or "I want one"
    They should be limited to the LTS, and not be in the C store or as a mission reward.]

    Things I would call small. rechargeable items, other then the shields battery. rechargeable holo emmiters.
