FPARN, and in before the wall of people griping about not being in SGs, etc.
It's not a bad reward. I'm still miles off it, but I know that the multiple peeps I have in SGs will use it

I just wish there was a purpose to Prestige, beyond making storage and transportation hubs
Nice.
Good bonus, without being overpowered.
Not bad
Decent i suppose Just still unsure whether veteran rewards should be cut off now or not or be moved to 6 monthly [or more] veteran rewards from 75 onwards.
@Damz Find me on the global channel Union Chat. One of the best "chat channels" ingame!

Agreed. While I like the reward, it'll just end up in the pile with the other 40 million prestige that we have doing absolutely nothing.

Making money, not earning it.
better than a costume change token, worse than just about everything else.
*shrug*
it's not like anyone who cares is suffering from some massive shortage of prestige.

That it?
Nice! Three more days for me.

I care, and I am suffering from a massive shortage of prestige. I realize I am a minority, but I think this is a really nifty bonus. Eventually my one-person (/several-alt) VG will be able to afford the last TP beacon I want to put in. This will help.
Thank you Devs! ^_^ I'm happy that the badges keep coming, the bonuses are icing on the cake.
I'll take it, but I hope they put an end to these soon.
Sooner or later the Veteran Rewards are going to simply become Cellphone camera shots of the various Paragon Studios employees sobbing the rewards "What more do you want from me!?"

Considering the number of MMO that died before the 3 or 6 months, and some that never got past the 'dream' stage.
Myself, I'm wondering what they'll do for 84 months.
Sometimes, I impress my boss. Sometimes, I impress myself. The rest of the time, I scare people. I can live with that.
This is one of those little things that I could use Now, as I have a number of SG/VG's on different servers that are still empty... and chances are, by the time I get it, I won't be needing it anymore... but C'est la vie
Great little helper reward for those eligible for it though, IMO
any 75 mo. vets wanna come help me build some prestige anywhere?

okay, I'll exempt the twenty people out there who still need prestige from my comment. =P|

If you're that strapped for prestige I'll send you some inf to convert for your last beacon (even though the rate is criminal).
PM me the amount and your global. =)

Oh no, free rewards! Imma gonna complain! Bwaaaah!
If it were for mission completion also, I'd give a bit more of a hoot about it.

I think the only people that can complain about this being unsatisfactory are the people the genuinely bridged the gap from 72 to 75 on the blind faith that this reward would be amazing.
Looks like a fine reward, though would be sooo much more useful if this was earlier. Really wish the devs could rearrange the order of vet rewards around a bit but cant see that ever happening.
I see it helping a whole lot of small SG's though after 75 months, yep, not many vets who have played that whole time will need it. Thoughs that take breaks but keep paying (or ebay'd accounts I guess) will like it.

I will be getting this in 8 days. I appreciate the veteran awards. I've been a subscriber nearly straight through from CoH beta (nearly because there was a card mix up for a week or so while I was serving in Iraq). |

I appreciate that loyalty is rewarded and also hope to see what the 84 month reward is. Heck I want to see what the 150 month reward is.
My postings to this forum are not to be used as data in any research study without my express written consent.
It would be interesting if it had given a 10% bonus to the prestige earned for mission completion instead. <.<

"Can play" is not a binary. It's a float.
There are some pretty low values of "can play" out there.
