Has anyone missed an event? missed a reward or a giveaway? Say like a past promotional item! I had a lot of ships and their is A LOT of ships that are now harder to obtain except for a few events that cross like "Phoenix Account Bound Ship Token" or the new "Promotional Account Bound Ship Token" I ask this and suggest this that a new token be developed, a ZEN purchase of a single Promotional Ship Token that can be bought at a well, say 12000 ZEN, this is very expensive i know but the reason is because it lets some players who are new get straight into the game with the ship they really want the most. I would say it is a single purchase option and no transferring but about the events.. (sorry i got off topic) In those events like Risa or Q-Wonderland, instead of a new ship offer a universal Summer/Winter Token to reclaim the NEW or OLDER ships of your choice. same with other events like Anniversary and stuff.. I know you have these giveaways for account bound ships but what if that can only be the start.
each year releases a new ship and a token to claim said ship if you want or trade it for a older model. It really would help and give people the things they need

Given the rarity of the Epic Phoenix Tokens (they are basically the most rare thing in the game) I think some players would probably pay the Zen (though 120k is too much) but I fear Cryptic would never actually go for this idea as they want to keep the Phoenix tokens valuable.
Cryptic wants us to do the events. If they price the event ships as standard C-Store for account unlocks and let you buy them at that price any time then people will just buy them instead of eventing them. Or do neither, figuring they can always buy them later on.
They need to be more expensive than C-Store to get people to do the event.
As far as being good, many/most of them are C-Store quality or better plus they are 11 console / fleet level out of the box.
I know someone said that Cryptic wants people to play the events but they offer a Reputation Buyout, Event Buyout, it seems to me if they cared about giving everyone (recently the celebrated the most players ever) that they might want to give something to the growing player base. With so much new Star Trek it is getting people interested in finding the game to play
I would really welcome the ability to select past rewards and new rewards because some ships are better than the previous years, It would take someone to agree with me. Imagine if you had to restart and had nothing, not even money to buy keys, dilithium, energy credits, everything is at square 1 again, this option allows the new players to boost themselves up after a few months, get the rewards they really need - I lost my old PS4 profile and had to start all over from day 1, i had a friend gift me some T6 gift tokens but even then. It has been a struggle
Mudd and Phoenix prize boxes are handled absolutely terrible. the 4000 dilithium to unlock 1 box, 40000 for 10 boxes, that is a huge grind for everyday with 9 characters to get 20 boxes on a chance to get 1 ship, after about 30 days you might have 1 ship but look at the price, or you can buy a ZEN ship or few, Mudd's ships are as much as a legendary pack and sales are never as good as 90% off, even recently everything was 75%
Events should bring back the old ships which if you want to fly them now you will pay about 17000 ZEN to fly 1 ship, They was free and promotional so why can't they rejoin the promotional events again? Infinity Lockbox has ALL other ships in it too!!
l don't know.
l really don't know what l'm about to say, except l have a feeling about it.
That l must repeat the words that come without my knowledge.'
You owe me a new sarcasm detector. Mine just exploded and now my hand is bleeding pretty badly
I'm a fan ot a trade in system even if it's rediculous, like 50 uncommon = 1 rare 50 rare = Vr, etc.
I'd suspect they'd likely sell them for more 7000-9000 ZEN to account Mudd sales tactics, sometimes he offers sales of 25-75% off. Though the sales above 50% may only occur 1-2x a year, and it's also (sometimes) limited to specific bundles, but not always...
Still I'd be surprised if they sold them at all.
Perhaps in future we might see a few more Events in time giving an Epic Token as the Prize perhaps, as an Alternate choice for the Experimental they've offered a few times as well. I think that be more likely myself.
Regardless whatever they do, I tend to think they try to be fair to everyone.
