360 Day Veteran Reward - Aetheryte Ticket

well guess what, our feedback and "ranting" here contributed to the devs decision to include both the Warrior of Light Minion & Chocobo Barding in the 360 days Veteran Rewards.

Seems like even the devs does not agree with those in defense of the original 360 days veteran rewards (odin minion + 50 free teleport) and instead agrees with our stance instead.

But you still get your tickets :P

I'm gonna say "yay~~~~". But honestly, i don't understand why they rather include the rewards from 450 days instead just giving the "one-free teleport". I mean, now they have to think another reward for 450 days, don't they? o.o

But with a much sweeter deal of having 2 additional rewards with it ;)

Well, its ultimately digital in-game rewards, those are easy to come up with, it really doesn't take much cost or effort on their part to do so.

lmfao you guys should be grateful they even bother reading their forums most MMOs couldnt care less about suggestions
this forum might as well be the new "feedback" forum

The rank 7 rewards were added to the list at the same time as the rank 6 rewards, and they haven't changed. They've been minion/barding of light for just as long as rank 6 has been wind-up Odin & aetheryte tickets.

Incorrect. The Live Letter just said they are giving us Warrior of Light Minion + Barding with the 360 day reward. In other words, you are getting four rewards for the 360 day milestone. As such, there is currently no 450 day reward (but you can't reach rank 7 yet anyways).

Ah. Gotcha.

I shall blame a lack of caffeine.

As recently mentioned on the Letter from the Producer LIVE XIII, Veteran Reward items for players subscribed for 360 days have been modified to include the items previously announced for rank 7. Now players who subscribe for 360 days will receive:

- Wind-up Odin minion
- Wind-up Warrior of Light minion
- Barding of Light
- Aetheryte Ticket (50)

(Just as a note by the way, we again removed the "Petition" in the thread title, as we do not specifically respond to calls for petitions as policy or practice, whathaveyou! ;))

Victory.

A compromise and gesture of good faith.

If someone wants to continue to complain about the ticket reward itself. Good luck on the reception now.

A much more worthy one year reward :)

Single month subscribers stop paying the same month they quit. Six month subscribers continue paying (for an entire six months) even if they decide to quit the first month. Therefore, people who pay for 6 month subscriptions provide FAR more profit then people who subscribe month to month. Understand? El Psy Congroo

that's the whole point, they designed those already so it's easy to do.

now they have time to design new stuff.

I want a Twintania mount as a reward for 450 days.

Contributed, yes. Agree with your stance, probably not. If they did agree, they would have left rank 7 as is and added something else to rank 6. Taking the easiest route by lumping both ranks was an act of convenience for them. They wouldn't have made rank 6 the way it was if they didn't feel it appropriate. Everything is already roadmapped. Even the vet rewards are planned well in advance, just not announced.

Lol, there were no sides here. They just took the rank 7 items and put them in rank 6. Basically what C-croft said, I'm not repeating it.



And that reminds me, why was this not in the Feedback thread?

Best company ever. Thank you so much SE! You guys really didn't have to... but the fact you did speaks volumes. You guys are wonderful!

I support this thread.

Sure it's free and they don't have to give us anything, but think about it like a relationship. What of you're significant other got you a nice new watch, then some pretty new earrings the next month, then a new car the third month.

Skip to a year ahead to your one year anniversary and and youre all excited. Then you open it up your gift and it's a bag of m&ms. That's what this feels like to me.

O.o

Also it's really disgusting to see how personal and nasty some of these comments got just because some people didn't agree with the OP. Some of you people are just awful

SE fixed their oversight so it doesn't matter now. Forum community will always behave like a forum community so there's no way to fix that.

More people are willing to act out bad behavior because of anonymity.

So people now are happy that they will get the 360 and 390 veteran reward at the same time. Now wait to see what the new 390 reward will be to whine again.

Let the thread rest in peace! Everyone is happy! The only gripe people had was that Yoshi said the one-year reward would be "special." People argued that "Aetheryte Tickets" weren't exactly special when compared to everything else. Previous rewards were fantastic and the next reward is for 450 days (not 390.)

it's 360 and 450, the rewards have been quarterly since the first 3 months. most people will be fine if the next 450 set is a minion and some other non-perishable in-game vanity trinket.

I wouldn't mind 50 Free repair fees~

or 10-15 free repairs every month after hitting the reward mark :P

Well, our stance was simply that the Rank 7 rewards was inappropriate from our stand point which the devs agree hence the change to incorporate Rank 8 rewards into Rank 7 as a compromise. If you thought our stance was focused solely on changing the aetheryte tickets and not on the Rank 7 rewards as a whole, then you've been misunderstanding us and our comments.

Never had we said that the 50 aetheryte ticket must be changed or replaced but simply that an Odin minion and 50 aetheryte ticket wasn't cutting it for us.

There is little need to continue this discussion as the devs have already spoken and the issue has already been resolved.

Fantastic!

Good on SE for stepping up their game and responding so quickly to some of our grumbles!

Kudos!

I DO NOT SUPPORT THIS. It's a reward people. Like it or not, it depends on who wants to give the reward. It's not something you buy. Just play the game and complain about game/lag issues.

Do these rewards count for entry option subscribers, please?

IMO the reward would have fit in more nicely for a 30 day sub - because the equivelant 20,000g is still a fairly substantial amount at this stage in the game. One year in, though, this amount is, at best, nominal.

Scrap the tickets and replace them with something more substantive/meaningful.

How about a FREE retainer? I am extremely angered that I might have to pay an extra two dollars for another retainer. Or even better, how about an armoire that allows up to store ALL and ANY kind of gear?

I just think an extra 2 bucks a month for more storage space is a complete slap in the face. Considering I only have one character to play with, I don't see what the issue would be. Shame on you for even making this an option for players, it should be FREE since we're already PAYING for this game. Such bull.

Thread shouldn't be bumped anymore... but

You have 2 free retainers already Sherlock. I have gear for every job and I don't even fill up one retainer. How do you have so much stuff that your armoury, inventory, and TWO retainers with SEVEN pages of inventory slots EACH full!?

And sorry to burst your bubble (I think it already popped though) that these plans were in place even before 1.0 launched. Sorry! You don't REALLY need to buy another.
