Sometime I wish some of the player who play from start of ARR would be notice, just like thos who play 1.0 long enough got know as Legacy player... Yes, yes I know the situation the happened back then and reason why they even run Legacy campaign at all but still wish thos have play longer regardless if they suck or good player or focus in crafting/battle get something cool.
*sigh* since Veteran reward out the window more or less.
Mentor? lol just no.
No bad talking 1.0 players.
Just wishful thinking...

I think the reason ARR players don't get 'recognition' is because the game was in no way in the dire situation it was in in 1.0, the players from that era get that status for sticking with the game and paying for it anyway.
Though I do feel you on that, sometimes I wish there was something that shows you've been around for the long haul besides veteran rewards, which are now meaningless since you get all of them for virtually no mileage compared to before. -

The "legacy" tattoo and rewards (achievements) are a small way of saying/indicating "you stuck with us through a really bad time. Thank you".
Why should they reward you for playing a good game? I understand you'd like a little thanks for sticking with it so long... but if that's why you play a game for a long time, for the recognition, I'd say you'd need to change games. -

Well I thought legacy era players got an exclusive mount or something.
Other than that, nothing stopping SE from adding more veteran rewards in the future if they want. If they didn't cut down the time to get some things adding more would just have effectively placed it out of reach to many players whose only sin was not subbing continuously since day one. -
11-19-2017, 08:54 AMLastFireAceI did no play this game for long time to be recognize, but ain't nothing stopping from asking anyway. Why change game you like just for asking to be recognize ? Wired lolQuote:

11-19-2017, 09:11 AMKrotoanAsking hurts nothing, agreed.What I'm saying is if you're looking for some kind of recognition for playing a game, it sounds like you consider spending a long time in this game to be similar to putting in hours at a job, therefore unenjoyable and deserving of compensation or at least recognition. IF this is the case then maybe stop playing the game because if you're not having fun then there's no point to play.Quote:

We HAD longstanding subscriber rewards and the community said it wasn't fair, so they standardized them. Now you get .. something to trade in for those rewards and the long and short of it is: if you've been with us from the beginning you have them all already.
Asking hurts nothing but we've done this dance already.
I'm glad you're happy with the game though, so many people come here just to complain. =] -

Sadly Vet rewards went away, guess there are special little snowflakes everywhere... coughjumppotionscough... unfortunately in this day and age, people don't have any tolerance for putting in the effort to play a game long term and think they are entitled to everything from the start. Frankly I think SE needs to put their foot down on this, but if they don't it won't matter much in the grand scheme of things. People like that are the kind of people I fire irl on a daily basis, and yes, I get a lot of satisfaction in doing so. At least we don't have loot boxes... I'm looking at you Battlefront II.

11-19-2017, 08:27 PMTexaThe Japanese playerbase had been very vocally against the veteran rewards well before the jump potions came out.Quote:

They were both horrible decisions at a cash grab for people who think they know what they are doing but don't. Will some be able to catch up and learn their job? Yes, but that is a very small amount of players and only introduced more mouth breathing hurp durps into Duty Finder that frankly have no place playing this game. Now if you want to address the ACTUAL topic, please do so.Quote:

It kinda sucks that past events rewards are either put into the mogstation or just recycled... I get why they do it but it is one of those things that shows you've been around awhile

As for ARR people getting their own rewards, well they've been playing the longest so they are the ones who will probably have more achievement points under the new system which hasn't really been fleshed out yet. We're going to have to wait and see there. -
11-21-2017, 02:09 AMSkivvyNever worry about people whose only contribution to a topic is to point out someone's grammar. A good portion of us cannot speak more than one language, so kudos on that ;)Quote:

11-21-2017, 01:26 PMTensaiSogetsu"Most vocal" and "Most listened to" are two completely different things. I highly doubt SE even bothers to see how many posts are on the majority of the forum outside of whatever glamour contest they are hosting currently. Throwing in this junk system is an insult to all the ARR players as now anyone can get whatever rewards that we had to pay several months or even years to attain. It's the same as walking into a job and being given the keys while those that have been there for years are just base employees that have been turned down for raises for the last 4 quarters to "cut costs".Quote:

I put that in quotation marks because heck, I don't know you.. maybe this IS all you wanted to play this game for, deck yourself out like Squall and lord it over people who aren't at that tier yet, but if you're playing this game for fun then is it really even worth getting slightly disgruntled over? Sure Greeny McNoobface over there has the same glamour you do.. but did that make yours look any worse? Were you unhappy when they brought back other events and suddenly other people had things that used to be exclusive to people who played during the original?
I have the Primogs minion, I got it with one of the soundtrack Blu-rays. If they gave it out suddenly to everyone who did a mini-quest they invented it wouldn't make my soundtrack sound any worse or make me unhappy I bought that disc, cause I bought it for the music.
I've been with this game since the beginning and have enjoyed ... most of it. =] I'm always at a loss to people who seem to want exclusionary items just to high-class it over newer players. -
11-21-2017, 01:50 PMSenorPatty
Ok I think I understand what the OP means. They want 1.0 players to have something exclusive to display to others that they're legacy players to everyone else. Like a special title, mount, vet reward, etc. At least that's the way I'm understanding it and someone please correct me if I'm wrong.
I really want to asky why but I feel like I already know the answer. -
11-21-2017, 01:51 PMKrotoanmmmno. They want ARR players to have that stuff. legacy already has that.Quote:
