So the March calendar is up and the long awaited 800 day vet reward is coming.
The Mugato pet!
But here's the stinger for Veterans is that a "combat version" is coming to the c-store for EVERYONE
The reward is basically pointless for me now:(
What's your opinion?

Edit: I should say I don't use Ground Pets. I do let one of the Shuttle Pets follow me around sometimes when I'm bored.
Pets are JUNK, but I love my combat horta. That's why I am so let down now.:(
Not seeing an issue here.
a useless non combat pet? Really?
Where does it say that the 800 Day Vet reward is the Mugato pet? Is it listed elsewhere?
Thank you
Always useful... and the pet is well it is what it is another fun cosmetic addition to the game.
I like to collect the pets, most of which you can get for free (well you can get everything for free at the price of a major grind but ya know).
On a serious note; let's turn this thread around to be a little bit more constructive and positive use of our time.
If you think the 800 day vet reward is lacking what you feel to be the "reward" part; well what do you think you deserve for subbing for 800 days?
Starship slots are always welcome. I think that 800-Day entry is out-of-date and will be edited to include the word Combat prior to the word Mugato.
A vanity pet isn't going forward (and why would a mugato not be a combat pet?)
800 days and you get a trinket with no function whatsoever?
How about an additional number (say +25) of dutty officer slots on all our characters (increase max cap so those who bought all the expansions can still get it) or perhaps all characters can have 21 active assignments instead of 20.
Or maybe a universal token per character to buy one piece of the Mk XII Maco/Omega/Honor Set (ground or space). Bind the token so there are no loopholes in someone making new characters to transfer the token.
i am pretty sure every single employee goes home and says "yep, i haven't sold out".
dunno. cryptic is running metrics all the time. if that were the case the metrics would show that.
Look at all the vet rewards released before F2P. The 600 day reward get's modded just before F2P. Then we hit F2P and the 700 dy vet reward is still incomplete (still can't get anything but a male eng android), so 800 day vet reward will probably hit before 700 day vet is fixed.
The 800, 900, and 1000 day vet rewards look extremely anemic, especially considering the 800 day pet will be exclusive for mere days and then be obsolete with the c-store version actually being usefull. Then there's yet another ship slot reward, like someone who's been subscribing for this long needs another ship slot.
No, with F2P, we are the unwanted. About the only thing that suprises me, is that some of you are still suprised by this.
That said, I'd definately buy a Tactical, M.A.C.O. or Medical Exocomp combat pet or BO, if they ever put one in.
All in all... So it's a crappy veteran award. So only a handful of people even know what it is, and even fewer care. The overall package certainly compares poorly to the 700 day one. It's not the end of the world. There are other vet awards on the list at the 900 and 1000 day mark, which look considerably better, and should more than make up for it. And at least with the shuttles and all, I can use the extra ship slot.
The 900 and 1k vet rewards are more doable. And tbh.swg vet rewards sucked even harder and it wasnt f2p so i dunno its not overall bad but a pet is as it is just a pet.
Actually Mugatu would say funnier things...
