Vigilant and Determined Badges?


Defragment

 

Posted

I recall they said we'd get these badges for keeping our accounts active between August 15th and November 15th. My questions are:

Has anyone gotten these badges yet? if not, I guess soon?...

Also, did they mean to pay for 3 months together or could I have had my card on file so the game auto-renewed monthly which it has since before August 15th. I am hoping I still get these badges and am able to then beta test Going Rogue at some point.

The announcement said that the badges would be awarded within a week or two after the end of the time period. I would imagine that a script will be run to grant them during Thursday downtime this week or next.

All that was necessary was that your account remain active from Aug 15 to Nov 15. Single or Multi-month billing, three time cards, three different boxed sets, or even having three friends start the game with referrals from your account, each getting you a free month, are all valid ways of qualifying, as long as there is no lapse in subscription.

I've heard that lapses of less than 24 hours will not disqualify you, though I cannot confirm it.

If you did not have any days where you could not log in because you hadn't paid, then you're good to go.

Does anyone know if these badges will be awarded to all characters on an account in perpetuity, or if they will only be granted to those that exist the day the badges are awarded?

They are supposed to be account-based, like all the other Vet badges.

Dumpleberry is right. The badges are account based. Not only did I get the badges on my existing alts, but on the new ones I created this morning.

No badges for me. Most likely due to the accidental master account ban I got a little while ago. When the CS rep investigated it, they told me the ban was a mistake, so maybe I can get the badges if I put in a support ticket about it...

I had a lapse of less than 24 hours, my credit card had expired and I hadn't changed my info to the new one before it was to late.

I still got the badge, so under 24 hours should be good.
