[xbox one] Jem'Hadar Life time subscription ship & T6 ship event??

awesomeweasel

i know that consoles usually get shafted of allot compaired to the pc, but the claim a t6 from the zen-store event has been on the pc for awhile now. it was advertised on the console awhile go also so when exactly are the consoles going to be getting this.

with a life time subscription you get 1 ships for each faction that you can only get with a life time subscription. now i know that the jem'hadar are a newly added faction, but are we ever going to get a life time ship for the jem'hadar faction?

Yes, the J-H Lifetime ship is coming. PC hasn't gotten it yet either, so be patient.

Consoles do not get shafted by Cryptic. They have to run everything they code for consoles through Sony and Microsoft. This takes time, and that time has actually been reduced from six months to two.

If you have a complaint about the time it takes to get things on console, take it up with Sony or Microsoft, depending on your console.

I was not referring the time it takes to get things, I was meaning that consoles do not get everything the pc get, one example is the 500 zen per month the pc gets with a lifetime sub that the consoles do not. which in allot of cases makes players on consoles not want to buy it. I do have a lifetime sub myself but many of my friends will not buy it because of that reason.

Is the zen allowance still a thing? I have a lifetime membership on console (two in fact, since I have twin gt's) but frankly I haven't noticed the monthly zen at all?

Firstly, on PC you cannot grind out the Lifetime like you can on consoles, you can only pay cash for it, you will not find it in the Zen store like you can do on the Consoles.

Secondly, LTS on Consoles is massively cheaper because the Zen stipend is not included, so you have the better deal. You may not like it, but that's a great compromise. With a Zen sale and a LTS sale you can get it for around £80, PC is about £130 when it's on sale, and you can't use a Zen sale to make it cheaper.

Not on the Console, which, as I said is the main reason why it's alot cheaper.

All of these questions have been answered multiple times: 1) There's no Zen stipend on console, because Microsoft and Sony don't want to see their profits eaten into (same reason your accounts can't transfer); 2) Same reason why the T6 Ship Coupon isn't coming to console, but Cryptic hopes to do something else for console players; 3) The LTS Jem'Hadar ship is currently in development according to a recent livestream, so yes it is on its way.

If you have issues with what console does or doesn't have, it's most likely due to restrictions imposed by Microsoft and Sony, not Cryptic.
