Dear Cryptic:

I'm bad at calendar math. Any chance of getting a "Veteran Awards Current Day Count" section on the account info page - https://www.startrekonline.com/user/<whatever&gt; ?

    Pretty sure there is already a command in game for this. Someone tell us what it is.

    That just tells how much time that character has spent logged on.

    It doesn't require calendar math all it requires is for you to count.

    When did you start playing?

    You will get the 100 day reward one hundred days after you started playing the game

    You will get the 200 day reward One hundred days after you receive the 100 day reward, etc...

    pretty straight forward

    Scratch that, I are right. From the Star Trek online Wiki :
    /played - Prints the following message in your chat window: <playername> has been on active duty for <w> days, <x> hours, <y> minutes, <z> seconds.

    But to the OP, Soupgoblin is right. Just count out a bit more than 3 months after you opened the account for 100 days. ;)

    Thursday May 13th if you activated your account on launch day.

    Devs have indicated that they aren't sure if it will include headstart (which would put it a few days earlier) or the grace period beta users had to activate their CD key, I think.

    So if you entered your CD key on launch day, Thursday, May 13th. Other stuff may mitigate that if you delayed entering your CD key or were in headstart, depending on which way that goes.

    Yep. We are working on getting the specifics so we can post them ASAP. Currently the plan is to have your total sub time displayed in the account management Web UI, but the design is not finalized yet.

    Publishing information on the specifics of our upcoming promotions is one of our highest priorities right now, so rest assured that we will be putting plenty of documentation up over the next few days.

    Your "highest" priority should have been getting some content in so I would stop twiddling my thumps. It may actually be better marketing if you give your already subscribed players a reason to be around for veteran gimmicks. I am not 3 years old and I do not need to be promised a lolipop to stay quiet.:rolleyes:

    No more lollipops - y'all just drop 'em on the ground, get dirt and hair all over them then come screaming for another.
