Lifetime Ps4

Does anyone know if the lifetime bonus on the ps4 will get updates to it like on the pc version.

For example with veteran rewards or if the release T7 ships when they come out.

Would have posted this on the ps4 forums if there was one.

    Nothing has been announced, so don't buy it expecting anything to be added. Also, you do NOT get a monthly zen stipend.

    Yeah seen there was no monthly zen guess I've got till the 20th to make my mind up.

    How much does it cost?

    I would say the main reason to get it would be if you are an altoholic.

    It costs 10750 zen at the moment its got a -33% off till the 20th and you can buy 11000 zen from the playstation store for £79.99.

    As for alts ell will have one from each faction but that's probably about it.

    So $160 normally compared to $300 normally for the PC version. I guess $140 is the price of the Zen Stipend. Would be interesting if Cryptic sold a LTS lite version on the PC that is the same as the console version.

    The only changes to the Lifetime Subscription after the game launched is the Talaxian Race, Liberated Borg Romulans, and every Veteran Reward. So if a new micro-faction is added to the game, then there is a good chance for a new Liberated Borg Cardassian or some other Liberated Borg race. Some of us were hoping for a new Liberated Borg race when TOS Starfleet micro-faction became available, but nothing yet.

    The Combat EV Suits was added to the Veteran Reward system when Cryptic removed it from the C-Store. So there is always the possibility of future Veteran Rewards. As far as future Veteran Rewards go, it will depend on if Tier 7 ships become available and what they playing on doing with future micro-factions. There is no Romulan Android Bridge Officer, but there is Romulan Veteran costumes and Romulan Heavy Destroyers so it is possible for Cardassian Veteran costumes and Cardassian Heavy Destroyers to exist.

    However, whether the PS4 and Xbox One will get new Veteran Rewards and LTS rewards that the PC users get is something that only the devs have a clue about. It would be an easy way for Cryptic to enrage a bunch of console users if they didn't add items to the console version when they add items to the PC version.

    So if you are thinking of buying the LTS pack, then I would suggest basing it only on what is currently available. With just the various slots available in the LTS pack, you are saving 3,250 per character (1,000 Zen for the Inventory Slots, 1,500 Zen for the Bank Slots, and 750 Zen for the Ship Slots) for a total of 9,750 Zen for three characters and an additional 2,000 Zen for the Account Bank Slots. There is the Respec tokens, but there value is largely dependent on the player. Some people rarely use them while others use them regularly so they would be worth 0 Zen or 5,000 Zen if you use them. There is the 4 character slots, but if you are only doing one for each faction, then they are worthless unless they do something similar to the Delta Recruitment event for console users. So it is a grand total of 11,750 Zen for all the slots that are available with three characters and that is not including the Android Bridge Officer, Heavy Destroyers, shuttles, exclusive races, and costumes.

    I realise the monthly zen is absent but are all the other pc lifetime perks included? if this is the case and you think it is worth the price go ahead and buy, I would be very careful to check what you are getting for your money just to be sure you are not going to regret the purchase at a later time or didn't get as much from the deal as you expected.

    When I think about everything we've been through together,

    maybe it's not the destination that matters, maybe it's the journey,

     and if that journey takes a little longer,

    so we can do something we all believe in,

     I can't think of any place I'd rather be or any people I'd rather be with.

    Seems to be missing a Respec Token, couple of costume slots, and Vice Admiral ship token, but that could just be an oversight on whoever created the list for the LTS sale.

    The lack of ZEN stipend was a bit disappointing, but to get the rest of the content for half-price...that's a bit of a bargain, IMO. I got it, and (so far) I have no complaints.

    My mistake it's actually 18750 zen so will not be buying it because how far back I am from the tv I looked like 10750 may just pick up a ship pack or maybe some keys and try my luck but still enjoying to game all the same.
